Battlefield 3 Sucks on PS3/360?

Battlefield 3 will be one of, if not the best games coming out this year, but will the games experience be split across platforms? Leave your thoughts in the comments.

    another lame article, from a lame site, stupid flamebaiters. lol

    Thanks for getting a haircut.

    The PC better look better than the consoles. If you do get it on the PC, there will be another 40,000 people you can play with. Hope those 40k aren’t working at the same time.

    Get it on the PSN & it wont work for a month.

    Or
    Get it on the 360 where its going to work & online is fantastic, where you can cross game chat & party chat.

    Also, lets hope BF3 is great! We, or I at least know if BF3 is great, it will be the 1st great BF game. I’m looking forward to it but I wont buy it blindly, I need a demo or more videos to convince me to spend $60 on this game.

      There will be close to 100,000-500,000 on just a PS3, I’m sure–people like to try new things, and if it’s heavily advertised as a COD killer and it does good in reviews, people will buy it. Black Ops has close to at least 1 million on PSN consistently, not counting weekends. Ya rly, still. The PC version will have close to 20k players at once, depending on the amount of dedicated servers. 40,000 players? Unless you’re playing an MMO, that’s a lot for PC game after a month, mind you.

        They had the Battle Field 3 debut trailer during the NBA Finals, almost 6 months before release. Dice just need to bring a dominant product.

  • NotImpressed

    I think it’ll be fine on my 360 (or, fine if I had a PS3).  I guess I’d buy it for a PC, if I had the money to own an expensive rig that would play it adequately.  Maybe I should go out and buy a new gaming PC? Ya…that’s the ticket, and I’ll go buy a new 60″ LED to play it on!!  No, wait…I think I have to pay rent, buy groceries, make my car payment.  In other words, it’ll be just fine on whatever system and set up I have to play it on. 

    I have to agree with those commenting negatively on this site – what a waste of time.  I should know better to go to “random” sites that suggest I come back to see “randumb” things this guy does daily.

      I expect people to not like this site as they dont kiss @ss of the popular N4G kiss @ss group. Sometimes they get it wrong as others are always wrong & are afraid to argue points.

      Other sites are afraid to crap on SONY, M$, Nintendo, EA, Activision, & other devs; not these guys. I think Diz is insane for his hatred of Halo, however, he honestly cant stand the game, at least hes not afraid to admit to the world hes lost his mind for thinking that!

      So, yeah, if you dont want to be challenged, stay away from this site.

      • http://www.GamerSheep.com Dizlaoboi916

        @otherzinc I just wanted to make it clear that I don’t have a hatred for halo. I just think it sucks major donkey balls.

        and I stay true to my statement before that this site is lame lol yes I write for it, and this article is lame because it doesnt matter if the pc version is better than the console versions because battlefield sucks whether its on the pc ps3 or the 360. flame on flamers. diz-truth is in the hizzouse

        • FlamingBob

          Do you even like video games? Moron. (Oh yes, i´m a flamer)

        • Eatshit

          Fucking…..retard.

  • YourPageFuckinBlows

    You’re making a strong statement there, champ. Battlefield 3 will not suck on the home consoles. Will it be as good as on PC? No, but us who purchased consoles did so for the convenience. Not to get hard-ons over 60 FPS OMFG. This is the second video I’ve watched of yours and I still say the same as I did before, you fuckin suck at “journalism”, or whatever you call it. In closing, yes it will run better on pc but only because you CAN UPGRADE IT WHENEVER YOU WANT. And like NotImpressed said….some of us have bills, we don’t leech off mummy and daddy, mate.

    The PS3 version will be fine by release I’m sure, being as it’s their lead CONSOLE for show (please note, I said console, not PC). I’m mildly impressed with how well the Frostbite engine runs on PS3 when compared to BFBC2, so you can tell they’ve heard the fans and actually did something about it. All these lighting “solutions” and compression algorithms DICE says their coming up with to make BF3 run the ‘same’ on the 360 should really be taken with a grain of salt, as this is already bad news. Compression is one thing, as it can either increase loading times by packing more data–or it can lower the resolution of a lot of textures and maps (for mapping, not maps). But a lighting solution for a game means they’re having trouble running the amount of data on the 360. I’m queing them on both consoles to see which one runs better (gamefly ftw), but I’m buying it via Steam on release. We’ll see which one is really superior at release, but we all know it’s going to be the PC.

      @JakeyBee,

      If the PS3 version is the lead platform for the consoles, BF3 will absolutely suck real hard! There isn’t 1 military shooter on the PS3 thats any good what so ever, None! That is; if youre being honest with yourself.

      Try Ghost Recon, Rainbow Six, SOCOM, on the PS3 then play Ghost Recon, Rainbow Six, & Halo, on the 360; online & single player, tell me there’s no difference!

      Dice has a lot to prove, both Battle Field games were very average or below average. EA is paying several sites & blowing smoke up their @ss getting them to hype this game. I, as I’ve said before like this genre more than any other, & will give BF3 an honest effort. However, I wont give them a pass as I play military shooters more than any genre in my video game history!

      Also, they advertised this game during the NBA Finals; so, they are hyping & advertising this game with the best of them!

      Battle Field 3 must be great or I’m going to Sh** on it!

        Might want to watch the reveal of PS3 footage on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, or maybe ANY E3 coverage of the game, as no 360 footage or gameplay was shown, because they haven’t even alpha-sized the game to bring a lot of the beauty from the PC version and the size of the PS3 version to the compressed 360 version.

    The console versions are fine, plus I now lack the hardware horse power to justify the PC version.  I actually feel consoles have a weird advantage in the “disadvantage” of the slower response time of a controller vs the almost inhuman snap-on/fire of a PC mouse. It has always seemed too easy. Not that BF’s and COD’s come anywhere near realistic in a combat sense anyway, but acquiring a target is microscopically more demanding on console and I’ve always enjoyed that.

    What a MORON

    So, aside from the number of players (I dont get 63 friends, so I dont
    think it’ll matter THAT much) the only differences are graphics
    differences. Are we starting to believe that shit of “the
    graphics make the game”? As long as BF3 is a good game, I dont care it
    having SNES graphics quality.

    Wake up people, for the love of… the videogame god, whoever it is.

    Are you fucking serious?

    I know a cheap way to make the game on console 10x better than on pc. Just dust off your 6 year old pc and try to run BF3 on that. DUMBASS!

    You got one thing right: gamerSHEEP! If you had half a brain you’d know that you are making a fool out of yourself with this “journalism” 

  • ThePCDude

    Console vs PC comparisons are useless.

    The Xbox 360 uses a Xenos graphics chip (ATI Radeon X1900/X1950 series) – I have an old X1900 card collecting dust in my garage!  It’s got a nice faded pic of Ruby on the cooler.

    The PS3′s RSX is generally a Nvidia GeForce 7800 series.  I had two of these in SLI a rig of mine back in 2005 – a machine I built specifically for F.E.A.R. (looking back on the $$$ I spent on this machine makes me want to cry!

    In the PC world, you cannot buy these graphics cards anymore.  They’re museum pieces.

    Ignoring the changes in motherboards, ram speeds, cpu advancements…
    Why the HELL would anybody expect 5 year old hardware to perform close to current PC hardware?

    This is a waste of time, I’m going to punish myself for taking the time to view this video and typing a reply!

    get it for pc or ur lame…

  • ihateconsoles

    Holy Crap, obviously the PC version is gonna be far superior.  The hardware available on the PC is years ahead.  Why do all these console gamers whine about the game looking better on the PC?  If you want PC quality graphics, shell out and build a PC you whiners!  Console’s suck! Face it

    I’m getting it on PS3.. I don’t have the money to buy a new monster gaming PC every year

  • Grumpysoup

     im having trouble deciding myself whether to go for the PC or the 360 version. only advantage for 360 is that all my friends will have it on 360. 

  • Killadude_97

    just get MW3 biatch u know MW3 is gonna be the best 

  • Shotgunnx44

    Every one forgets that not every one has the rig to run BF3 at its best but PC does have the advantege with map size and player in a game(32 on 32 is only for conqeust too)

  • mike

    i played 360 demo for bf3 and i was pretty disappointed in the quality and visuals. Compared to the pc footage the console version seems to be very watered down, im guessing same goes for ps3? I preordered this game for pc so i just tried it on the 360 for fun to see 

  • Thurman2012

    btw way for all you console players out there its a fucking beta! jesus really all the designers are doing is looking for bugs and making sure the guns work. they aren’t gonna send you the perfect graphics in a 1.3gb download in the market place. you will have too wait…

  • Michael Muyunda

    the real game is a …..ok

  • Ckjf

    this games sucks shit.. dont waste your money, all the hype about it, its not good at all, lots of glitchs, confuse user, lack of directions…and waiting time. its a cheap game, good think jason west left cod…

    • Cheekymonkey75

       I forgot to mention the value in the colors is terrible. The whites are bleached out and blinding and the darks are blacker than Detroit.

  • Bobbyx

    I bought it on ps3 and compare to my old bf2 on pc it blows so incredibly hard.  Severely disappointed.   Horrible communications, small maps, super quick rounds, many team-work, squad, commander options removed.  It feels like Coke Zero.  BLOWS

    • Cheekymonkey75

       /// This exactly. I do not even bother using the mic anymore it sucks so hard. Gun aiming, damage, relevance? All of the weapons suck but just a few. The tank shells are way underpowered, the servers suck so you will probably get lag and on top of it , it freezes a lot. Compared to the last one it’s really bad. I will not be coming back to this franchise.

  • Jdmerritt00

    This games multiplayer lacks a vital ingredient…fun. That is my opinion. Recent changes to the game have already caused damage to the games enjoyability. Poor design decisions with the classes, which are horribly unbalanced make being an engineer the only competative option when choosing your class. it is grossly overpowered. This class allows you to use anti-tank heavy weaponry against infantry on smaller maps like Metro Station, which have no vehicles whatsoever. These weapons are loaded, reloaded, and fired by a single player which is unrealistic, unbelievable, and rediculous. Snipers shoot incredibly long distances without a spotter, the light machineguns are literally the weakest weapons in the game ironically enough, and the IRNV scope is completely and utterly useless. Top speed of some vehicles seems to have been increased which makes driving them frantic and chaotic, uncontrolable at times. Tanks struggle to climb seemingly any hill, rock, or obstruction. Foot soldiers can take near direct hits from tank shells and survive, along with multiple .50 caliber rounds. Commanding a squad without a headset is improbable, if not virtually impossible. Strange for a game that boasts about its squad based tactical gaming experience. Spawning is simply strange, often spawning you far from the objective you chose to spawn near, and more often then not, facing you the wrong way even?? Why would I spawn with my back facing the objective that i have chosen to spawn at? Ignorant! Some of this may be called nit-pic and I would be inclined to agree with you, but it is the small things in a game that draw my attention and personally I would rather have 10 aspects to the game and every one of them done right, then 100 different aspects and every one of them pitifully wrong. Which is the case in this title. I own the game, though I wish I hadn’t spent the money on it, it is now too late for that. So my hope at this point is that they continue to work on this substandard game and get it somewhere near enjoyable. As it sits, it couldn’t be further from enjoyable to me. It takes more than a fancy graphics engine to make a fun and fulfilling game. So many more aspects of this game are wrong, strange, and awkward. I encourage you not to find out if you are on the fence, but it’s your life and your money. Peace.

    This game has decent graphics and terrible game play. Do not waste your money. It’s a step up in graphics and a step down in functionality and glitches from the last one. Terrible terrible terrible. I will not be coming back for more from EA and probably trading this in as soon as I find another game I want.

    • Cheekymonkey75

       I would like to add that I am using a PS3 and it may be much different from the PC version. Spawning is terrible, gun play/aim/damage is awful, maps are boring, death match is the worst in gaming history.
