COD doesn't even advertise until after the game comes out.

Nothing wrong with getting word out that the game exists, even with this much time before release.

If the console versions of Battlefield 3 don't end up looking even close to as good as the footage in the trailers, there will be a lot of disappointed buyers this fall.

Has 10 millions assured. BC 2 is now near 8 millions and the game has not 1/2 of the hype.

You two must not watch sports. Activision usually unveils their latest trailers during playoff basketball games.

They are trying to steal some thunder from COD, but it won't beat COD.

I guess Nintendo cares about Australia more than Activision. But yes, they have advertised COD before launch.

Its actually a good idea to air it this early. They want to plant the seed in everyones head that something could be better than MW3 while they still can. If the MW3 ad came out first then all the fanboys would be so focused on that till its release that they wouldn't care about any other game. But since they are showing BF3 first the CoD fans will give it their attention, and then once the MW3 trailers come out CoD will look behind the times to everyone.

I would rather play it on PC with ts, i remember playing BC1 on 360, it was terrible. Little kids using the N word or calling someone a homosexual insult rather than actually communicating as a team.

there are ass hats everywhere, but being able to join random games and chat with random people is done better on consoles because there is only 1 way for everyone to chat together.

Didnt MW2 have a commercial in the NBA finals, or maybe it was just the playoffs.... I think Next month we will hear something about the next COD game, hopefully its MP, but they usually always show SP 1st.

Not at all, I find that pc players use more teamwork in these type of games, I dont join TS servers often but even when I dont players work on a team dropping med packs and the like, on 360 people just played it like cod (BC1). I thought PC players unlocking operation hastings first already proved this.

Well it makes sense to start advertising the game early. They need to get people excited about it and they need to try and steal some of the CoD crowd.

I think its silly that their advertising right now, there is so little known about the game
