At the end of every Battlefield 3 video, that sound when they show BATTLEFIELD 3 makes me think my speakers will blow every time I hear it. LOL

crxss5269d ago

Yes so do I! I remember someone made ringtones out of it haha. I'm sure you can still find it on YouTube.

Someone on eurogamer posted this: "I heard that PS3 will only get 1 disc. But which one will we get? Fingers crossed for the MP one!!"

^that retarded comment has a +77 rating... how dumb are people? It's been like 5 years since the ps3 had bluray... Do people still not know of it's larger capacity??

King_many_layers5269d ago

crxss.
It's eurogamer, therefore the comment is likely made in a sarcastic tone. (they're british presumably) Hence the nature of the 'thumbs up'

Darrius Cole5269d ago (Edited 5269d ago )

@crXss

I'm pretty sure that was joke. Lighten up dude, these are games after all.

Hayabusa 1175269d ago

@crXss

Unfortunately crXss, it was probably a joke (and a funny one at that!) which makes your comment even funnier...

bruddahmanmatt5269d ago

Did DICE really need to come out and explain the obvious? Watch bruddahman explain it:

"It's on two discs because the shit don't fit on one DVD. kthxbai".

They need to add the classic "Badda Ba Ba Ba Ba, Badda Ba Ba Ba Ba" somewhere in there

shayol33t5269d ago

As soon as I read that I knew what you were talking 'bout. Heck, even the other bf games have little snippets of bf1942 music.

Why o why5269d ago

reminds me of something from a film....like cloverfield or battle l a or something. The bf3 trailers wasnt the first place i heard that.... No thats it it was a transformers trailer...

Hayabusa 1175269d ago

Clearly none of you have heard Hyperpower by Nine Inch Nails:

Rhythmattic5268d ago (Edited 5268d ago )

Its a simple audio plug in (These Days)... Generally called "Bit Reduction"

Sonalkis does a good one... TBK2.. Just like the sound of BF3 and Daft Punk on Legacy..

Just throw audio with gated/rhythmic elements through it and BAM!

Persistantthug5269d ago

I mean, 1 disk + plus Battlefield 1943 as a bonus.

That's the version I want.

omi25p5269d ago

Best version = Where your friends are.

If both versions of the game look the same then Bonus content doesnt matter. Because nobody would by the game for its bonus content. Besides most core battlfield fans already have 1943 or the better version 1942 on pc

crxss5269d ago

For me it's gonna be the load times. I don't mind switching disks and the graphics will be practically identical (says DICE) plus I already have 1943 on ps3. I rather play it on my 360 cause of the triggers too (though r1 l1 are good enough). Friends will also have a big impact on my decision....

I'm kinda indecisive on this one until I see a LensOfTruth comparison which is surprising cause i never make a decision based on their comparisons.

SkylineR5269d ago

BF1943? The game I played on Xbox live back in 2008 or whatever? Great bonus... Yep that makes the PS3 version the ultimate one. *sigh*

2 discs on 360 isn't bad really. Once you switch to multiplayer that'll be the main disc you play anyway. Games like LA Noire that are single player and are on multiple disc I agree with getting on PS3, which is what I did. Same for Mass Effect 2 - I got that on PS3 too.
PS3 only owners need to grow the fk up!

da_2pacalypse5269d ago

yeah, because with an awesome game like bf3, I'm really really going to need bf 1943 to play... you're totally right, the ps3 version is going to be WAY better just because of the fact that its on one disc, and it comes with a 3 year old XBLA game.... come on dude, get over the fact that the console versions will look and play the same...

Persistantthug5269d ago

For me I'd be happy to get it as a bonus....especially since I didn't have the money for 1943 at the time and I never got it.

I'll accept it :)

KingPin5268d ago (Edited 5268d ago )

i know what you mean.

its like getting 2 games for the price of one.

i havent played battlefield 1943 so it will be cool to have it and play it when i have those moods when i feel like going back to the older games.

just the other weekend i blew the dust off my original xbox and started playing matrix: path of neo for the first time.

KRUSSIDULL5268d ago

Xbox 360 = 2 Disc = One can play Singleplayer and the other can play Multiplayer, able to install the full game on HDD.

Playstation 3 = 1 Disc = No need to get up from the couch + BF 1943.

PC = 1 Disc/No Disc = Best graphics and loading times, 64 players, full sized maps.

Make your choice but I prefer the one where my friends is at.

Vaud-Villian5268d ago (Edited 5268d ago )

The version that lets me play multiplayer while my roommate plays campaign at the same time for one purchase is best for me :)

I'm still partial to the original.

andrewsqual5268d ago

You shouldn't sell off the Single Player disc before you first INSTALL THE MANDATORY DATA THAT IS ON THE DISC 1 THAT THE SINGLE PLAYER NEEDS. Has nobody figured this out yet? Where does this leave the 360 4GB Slim morons?

towelie12885269d ago

awesome gonna pick it up
makes no difference
i will be playing multiplayer and co-op mostly anyways

DarkTower8055269d ago (Edited 5269d ago )

Of course it makes no difference, thats why the quote comes from nobody working on the game. Nobody wanted to feed this troll article so the quoted text is followed by "EA told us."

Also, for the fans of the game, how often is that mp disc going to leave your system? Rarely I'd guess.

KMCROC5269d ago

I Don't care about how many disc it will be on or not be on, i just would love to see Xbox360 footage & game play . please no still shots

fluffydelusions5269d ago (Edited 5269d ago )

It will look just like the PS3 version.

KMCROC5269d ago

Have they shown better PS3 footage since that mess that was shown on Jimmy Fallon, since that mess i have being thinking how bad the 360 will look.

JellyJelly5269d ago

BFBC 2 was pretty much identical on both consoles. BF3 is built on a brand new engine and I'd be surprised if that engine was designed to make one of the console versions look drastically better than the other.

Mrmagnumman3575269d ago

there was leaked 360 gameplay, it looked pretty bad but was pre alpha

chickens5269d ago

im assuming you watched the videos in amazing quality?

i have only got a 360 myself so im going to get that either way. this isnt stopping me. tbh i got happier after knowing, i really dont know. more stuff in the case :O lol

and no i aint troll or what :)

Mrmagnumman3575269d ago

just looking at it realistically. For instance pc is on another level compared to consoles, but it costs way more, and they shouldn't even be compared. Its like comparing alien technology to human technology haha. Also what im trying to say is consoles are great, so we should stop comparing them to pc's which are completely different

Kahvipannu5268d ago

Actually it was version for developers only, it's skimpped version just to hunt down bugs, people should wait for beta for real footage that shows what to expect from the game visually from consoles.

OC_MurphysLaw5269d ago

lol... its amusing to see people all up in arms over multiple disc games. "But, but, but I don't want to leave the couch to change a disc..." All console owners have to swap discs at some point... whether its to go from disc #1 to disc #2 or from game #1 to game #2, every console owner swaps out discs. FACT

Seferoth755269d ago

It's just a new excuse from fanboys to justify their purchase.

If it was really an issue they'd be playing on a PC.

MetalProxy5269d ago

Mr. Dlacy there is more to it than getting up and switching discs. But it looks like you want to ride that little pony as long as possible, so Iam not gonna bother to bring up the other things that have already been mentioned.

OC_MurphysLaw5269d ago

@MetalProxy, certainly there is the issue of compression of files, or open world games being more limited as they more or less are gimped if they have to swap out a disc to load into an area. I get that... My comment was squarely dealing with those individuals who talk about not having to swap out a disc as being some kind of manual labor they have to endur.

FunkMcnasty5269d ago

what are the big differences between 1 bluray and 2 HD/DVD's?? I'm curious? Are you going to mention the age old "a bluray holds more information" line? Because the console versions are exactly the same, except that the Ps3 version is using MLAA and the 360 version is using deferred tile-based shading for lighting effects, so.. are you gonna tell me that only a bluray deal with that? Because as far as I know, that's due to the higher graphics processors of the Ps3, not what disc it runs on.

It doesn't matter how many discs this will be on, it will be the same game on all consoles.

SignifiedSix5269d ago

@Funk
From what i know, the 360 has a slightly more powerful GPU. The PS3 just has the cell to help it out on the long run. But, oh well. Both console versions will be awesome, honestly. I can trust dice on making a multiplatform game unlike some companies... `anyone who works with activision, hahaha.` Bastards..

Ju5269d ago

Not just MLAA. The deferred rendering pass on the PS3 runs SPU+RSX, while it runs tile based on GPU on 360 only. Some say it has an impact on lighting. We'll find out so enough.

JellyJelly5269d ago

Being able to install the game on the 360 to reduce load times and texture pop-in is another plus.

I know I'll only be swapping discs once. As soon as I'm done with the campaign it's multiplayer all the way :)

kikizoo5268d ago (Edited 5268d ago )

Funknasty don't understand that is not the 2 discs the big "problem", if the Two versions are the same, it's because the ps3 version is not optimised (because 5 discs will be too much for 360 owners)

jelly, ps3 will also have installation with no loading time (and the real "+" is the ps3 has real big and cheap HD, so...fail, again)

" Blu-ray in the PS3 is bad right now because of the read times "

At the end of the day, it's equal or faster than you noisy dvd drive.

"Nobody is saying DVD is the future but some have recognized that claims of Bluray being the future is arrogant at best."

it was the "future" for 2006, and you know what, it's abslotly not arrogant, it's the reality since more than 3 years, for videos, and gaming (best exclusives are really helped by the bluray, only one disc, better sound, textures, etc)

"If the game can only support 24 players at the same time, the tech must be ancient. Son!"

resistance2, MAG (256), killzone, says hello...(it's another sad decision to make microsoft happy, because they can't get more than that, and the two multi have to be equal)..dumbing down

"The 360 version since it will be superior graphically and online also faster load times since you can do full installations. The only place that has the most online gamers with headsets and for the best experience on console 360 controller wins hands down."

really ? LOL... delusional/denial fanboy living in fantasy land.

"every console owner swaps out discs. FACT"

Really, cause I don't remember SNES or regular Genesis having discs that you swap out.

JeffGUNZ5268d ago

Oh stop, you know he is talking about this generation.

radphil5268d ago (Edited 5268d ago )

@JeffGUNZ

Yes, but that doesn't stop it from sounding any less foolish. :p

Besides, Wii and PS3 still don't have the multi-disc thing, so it still kinda discredits what he states.

Battlefield 3 Cut Missions From Campaign Detailed by Former DICE Dev

Battlefield 3's former Lead Designer has revealed that there were two cut missions from the main campaign

XiNatsuDragnel403d ago

I wish someone can get those EA game leaks to see all the cut content ngl

anast403d ago

Get rid of campaigns, move the game to mobile, and try to compete with warzone. They would save time and money.

hmmm I think there will be no old BF glory days for EA since they are loyal to their greediness and laziness :D

You're asking for a miracle with EA that will never happen unless they can exploit the money making schemes behind it.
