    Better than Bad Company 2, MW2 and Black Ops.

    DICE outdid themselves with this game! So far I like multiplayer. I may not ever touch the campaign or co-op modes for a while. The graphics are very realistic, and the game play is great!!! The movement of the character is very realistic as well. I give Dice and EA an A- for the game. However, there are some little quirks that happen during game play I'm 99% sure DICE will fix soon. The first is that there's a bit of skipping or lag while playing. It's not like MW2 lag, but it's noticeable and not annoying. Also, there is an issue with voice chat during the game. When conversing with teammates in your squad during gameplay, voices tend to cut in and out. It does not happen when you're in the lobby or while you're in the menu. Perhaps a patch will fix these issues. Overall experience has been unreal. I got a chance to fly a jet and it was really fun. I didn't get into a dog fight because I crashed and burned too quickly..LOL. However, that only made me want to learn how to fly. The Humvee experience is quite funny when you're driving. The windshield pops up and down all the time make the driving experience real. DICE really put a lot into this game and it shows with all the action going on in the game and how everything is set up to give you the ultimate experience. Infinity Ward/Activision have their work cut out for them with MW3.

    Average War Game

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Well, I wasn't as impressed with this game as I thought I would be. This was a highly anticipated game with lots of hype. It lives up to most of it. But the game is average at best. Storyline: same old same old. Fight the war, win the war, shoot the bad guy, swear a lot. I feel that they were trying to hard when writing the script to this game. It feels like they tried to figure out every single area in which they could throw in a cuss word. I have friends that were/are active military and even they say that it is more than what is true to life. They go for a lot of realism but having to hear the f word every other sentence is just overkill. Gameplay: controls are great! responsive and accurate. But that is where is stops. I didn't find this game as challenging as I thought it would be. Hardest part of this game: getting past the glitches and bugs found in certain levels! I got stuck on an air raid mission for 2 hours because of some glitch that makes it impossible for you to kill an enemy. I had to keep resetting the game and re-attempt the mission until it finally acted normal and they guy goes down. Another mission I somehow moved through a fence that I wasn't supposed to and got stuck on the other side. And be careful when jumping on boxes as you might get stuck on top of them. Campaign was quick and over before they could shove a few more swears in there. The Multiplayer has plenty of potential but who likes being sworn at and talked garbage by a bunch of 12 yr olds who think they are hard but still cry when their mom tells them to turn off the game to do homework and you can hear it in the background. Graphics: only 720P. I like playing HD games and prefer to have 1080P where available (MW3 has 1080P). Out side of the glitches it was good graphics. However, why does my whole screen have to be covered in grit when a bomb goes off? I know it is realism and stuff gets on your mask/face but it's a game, let me just see what I am doing and quit going for the gimecks.

    Best one yet.

    Battlefield 3 is an amazing game. I love it for the online gameplay. It's great that it has the destructable buildings. Also, the variety of weapons that you can unlock and the variety of vehicals you can operate are amazing. It's a great game if you want to play with your friends and has a lot of modes to choose from. The sound effects in the game is amazing and so is the gameplay itself. I would highly recommend this game and also the DPX21 Turtle Beach headset to go with it. Been playing the series since battlefield 2 for PC.

    Pretty good for online plan

    I love BF3 for the simply fact that it doesn't have cheap gimmicks like the COD franchise. The expansive maps are great when the game features plenty of people. At times it can be quite annoying though if you spawn or get left in an area without action even more so if you don't have a vehicle. Walking back to the action is completely boring and takes way too long on some maps. The team concept is a great idea but it's rarely carried out as designed. **I strictly play online...I didn't even bother with the campaign** Can't wait for BF4.

    I liked the campaign even though I found it difficult. Maybe im not so good. Multiplayer is real fun because you get a wide array of weapons and vehicles to use. I did find multiplayer more difficult because i was used to playing C.O.D. but once i got used to it i found it better than the MW series of C.O.D.

    Solid game but hard

    Very good storyline in single player mode. The multiplayer mode is very hard and downright frustrating at times. There is definitely a steep learning curve. Overall a great game though.

    Battlefield is a unique game like no other. You really feel like if you are in a real battlefield. The sound is excellent, and you can really notice the difference on each weapon, you can hear footsteps and voices. Not to mention your surroundings, like missing bullets from enemies far away hitting the walls, vehicles passing by as well as helicopter and airplanes. There are so many good new features on this game. The graphics are one of the best out there. There are some minor glitches here and there, especially when lying down in the floor, but many of them were fixed after a recent update. The one player campaign is amazing, but nothing new from other shooter games, but the multiplayer is simply the best. It is extremely addictive and challenging; all you want to do is unlock more and more weapons and attachments to make your soldier more powerful. It will take you months to get them all. The on line maps have something for everyone, from different vehicles in massive maps in “base” mode, to small run and shoot “death match.” The “rush” mode is one of the best, because it combine both, you get to use vehicles in a farely large area to plan your attract. One of the best features about this game is that it encourages you to play as a team and if you learn how to be a good team player…you will have tons of satisfying moments

    Battlefield 3

    It was a great game. Although there was not enough to the game. I really like playing the story line. After that there is no more to the game, unless you want to play online, and honestly I don't play online. I don't want to get hooked ,and spend my whole day playing. Over all I really enjoyed the game

    Graphics are good but didn't blow me away. Sound quality/effects are great and very realistic. Gameplay is more exciting, with more vehicles and more exciting perks. My next step, is to buy Battlefield for the PC. I would like to see more maps become available in the future.

    When I first played the game I was dying a lot. It was because I would get caught up looking at the surroundings. The graphics are the best. The game play is great too. The more you play the game the more things you unlock as far as weapons, vehicle upgrades, and uniform colors. This game is the #1 war game by far.

    I don't like shooting games, but I enjoyed it.

    I, for one, am not a fan of violent shooting games, but I did decide to try this one and DID enjoy it. It's realistic in combat and offers various fighting modes (tanks and jets too), which I found to be most entertaining. Story's ok and graphics are about as good as they can be. The main story game play can feel a bit short, forcing me to have to go against unrelenting thirsty shoot-a-holics over online. I can't match them, so the game's as useful as the story goes. All in all, the Battlefield 3 is the game for the shooter.

    This has been the best Shooter game i have played, Multiplayer gives you something to do, I have always loved the idea of destroying something that's in your way, and BF3 has that. Story mode is not the greatest, leaves you expecting more but that is not the reason i got this game. If MP maps were cheaper, this game would be perfect.

    I think this game is amazing! Its different and a change from Call of Duty and much more challenging. There's MUCH less camping first off, and the a more team oriented game. The graphics seem a level down then most other war games and the controls are a bit stiff (accidentally miss fire, or push the wrong button etc), but by far war game winner of 2011.
