I'm with you and think they just should stop trying to force Kinect into genres it doesn't do well. FPS games are meant to be played with a KB/M on a PC or a controller on a console. They are just so much more accurate and have a quicker response times which is critical in a FPS game. Give it up already. Kinect isn't meant for FPS games so stop trying. Let it do what it does best: dance, fitness, party and casual games.

Seriously, you thought that was pretty cool? Why not just lower that arm and take control of the right side of the controller? Why do all these funky moves with your right arm when you can do it more accurately and quickly with an analog stick and some buttons (and much less tirelessly)? So, if I prefer controllers or KB/M for FPS games, I am a troll in your book? Whatever makes you happy.

I just don't get it. KB/M for PC and controller for consoles are just infinitely be...

Just have him get her a Wii for her birthday. Problem solved. He has his machine and she has hers. Trading it back is ridiculous. This is his birthday present, not hers.

Good one Moe. Now you're going to piss off both console fanboys. Got to agree with you, though. BFBC2 was better on the PC and BF3 is going to be over-the-top completely better on PC. Love gaming on my PC and having PS3 for a backup (to play those console only games I enjoy).

I noticed that Nvidia cards dominated that list: 15 out of 22 (actually 23 since they list 2 cards in the final spot). ATI/AMD Radeon had 6 and the old 3dfx had 2.

This is more than just the weapons list that was recently released and includes: weapons, attachments, equipment, specializations, vehicles and vehicle specializations. A very comprehensive list.

And why do you care? It's obvious by all your anti-BF3/DICE/EA trolling rants that you are not getting the game. So, why do you care if it is or isn't coming to the WiiU? Also, why do you want to see other console footage? So, you can troll and rant on those threads as well? Please, stay with your beloved COD. You actually turn people off to MW3 with your immature, no facts rants.

Just be glad he won't be playing BF3. The Battlefield will be a better place without him.

You'd be way better off with a GTX460; the GTS450 is not nearly as powerful (plus the 460 is one of the recommended cards from the article). Also, that site doesn't look to have the best deals. Personally, I like Newegg and TigerDirect. Here is a steal of a deal on an overclocked GTX460 1gb model ($129 after rebate):

I thought this was a nice counter to all the recent articles blaming video games for the Norway shootings and London riots.

This has been my prediction all along. BF3 will sell better than MW3 on PC and MW3 will sell better than BF3 on the consoles. PC gamers appreciate the extra effort DICE is putting into that version. I know I do. COD has been going steadily downhill on the PC in both quality and player counts.

You are reading that right. Here's the quote: "Battlefield 3's PC preorders at the retailers have increased 2,302 percent over those of Battlefield 2. Even after these magical numbers it wasnt enough to topple the Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 preorder for the xbox 360 version is just above it at the number 1 spot."

Wonder why they compare it to BF2, though. That came out 6 years ago and the online marketplace is much more mature now (most preorders were don...

Well, I'd call 24 players on consoles for BF3 vs 64 on PC as "gimped". Same with it's toned down graphics and destruction vs the PC. Frankly, I'm ready for new consoles in 2012 or 2013 at the latest. I game way more on PC than the PS3 these days.

How about some alarm bells for the WiiU? I've got a feeling the next Xbox and PS4 will both have ample hard drives. However, the WiiU will not even have a HDD at all and is opting for a much smaller flash drive plus memory cards. I don't think that's going to cut it for a next gen system.

@DrakBlack, well said and also my sentiments. I don't like my FPS games too arcadey (COD) or too overly realistic (Arma). The BF series has always been that "just right" game for me.

My prediction is MW3 will sell better than BF3 on consoles, but BF3 will sell better than MW3 on PC. PC gamers appreciate that the game is being optimized for their platform. COD games have steadily gone downhill on the PC in both quality and player counts (MW1 had 48 on PC....we're down to 18 now). I know which one I'll be playing.

Actually a good article and nails my sentiments exactly. But, then again, like the author, I'm not a fan of motion gaming either. Just so gimmicky to me. But, of the three, I have to agree with him that the Sony Move is the only one that's remotely interesting. Still not for me, but at least it's accurate and can be incorporated into core games that I like to play. To each their own, but I just prefer my KB/M for PC gaming and my controller for console gaming. They have been perfe...

Exactly the same sentiment here. BF3 is a day one purchase while the "jury is still out" for me concerning MW3. I'm mostly a PC gamer and COD has been quite a disappointment for that platform the last couple of installments. If there are no dedicated servers, then that will be a definite deal breaker for me.

Didn't Newegg have it for 20% off recently? I think 20% off is a better incentive than a chance for two tickets to the COD XP event. You only get an entry to a drawing for the tickets; one prize out of how many entries? Vs a definite 20% off?
