How about neither? And how can you be proud of pre-ordering a game?

^^ this. Might end up buying MW3, but I doubt it as my finances are very limited and I need to pimp out my PC to max out BF3 somtime in the near future.

I pre-ordered the PC version of BF3 about two months ago so I could get Back to Karkand and the Physical Warfare pack. If it wasn't for those, I would've just went to the store and got it release day without pre-ordering.

The only thing I can think of is maybe he's proud he is helping fight the good fight against the evil Activision... He's fighting on the side of the saintly company called EA.

The only games I preordered this year are Resistance 3 and Gears 3 (technically I haven't preordered Gears yet, but I am going to this Tuesday because it is the only day I will have the time).

MW3 and BF3 look pretty good, but I think I can pass on MW 3 and wait for a GotY edition of BF3. Resistance and Gears (and probably the Halo CEA Reach maps) will keep me occupied for a while.

haven't pre-ordered it, waiting to hear if my local GameStop will have a midnight launch of it, if not I'll pick it up at a 24-hour Walmart that's for both games, I'm getting both games at midnight on the days they release... so my contribution to the scales doesn't tilt things either way

Ha, preorder MW3, I'll get it when it's $25. Ha, preorder BF3, first they have to prove to me the servers (ps3) won't kick me off every game after 3.5 minutes. But I'm going to most likely get BF3 since the servers for MOH were good and that was DICE and EA (idk who actually controls the servers so I put both) and it's newer than BC2 so hopefully they figured out what to do, as the game looks pretty awesome.

Unless it's a mall store, they will be having a midnight. BF3 and MW3 are both too big of a game not to have one.

I pre-orderd BF3 today aswell. Sucks Origin charges Tax and they do an authorization charge which lowers your account balance in your bank.

Pre-ordered BF3 about a week ago. The dude at the shop reckoned people were planning to trade BF3 in for MW3, when it's released. :lol: My face must have said it all...

Buying MW3 is one thing, but losing sleep for it? :|

There's a sticky for both of these games.
