Why you should buy Battlefield 3 for the XBOX 360 (Planetxbox360.com)

[QUOTE="lawlessx"]forgetting the PC version...you know..where the game is going to own :wink:finalstar2007

If i play BF3 on my laptop it would look like this

Yea, I guess if I could play BF3 on my PS2 it would look like that as well, whats your point?

Fail. There's nothing superior about AA batteries and goldmember feesPray_to_me

[QUOTE="mems_1224"][QUOTE="Funconsole"] Same here, my PC could run it ~med settings but all my friends (I'd play with) are getting it for the 360, plus it's much, much more comfy laying back on a sofa with a controller and playing on a 56" tv :)mitu123

yea thats why i cant do pc gaming. i have to be all hunched over my computer on a small screen. i got a 50ish inch tv, might as well use itmems_1224

LAck of games would be top of the list. Heil68

I have both systems but slighty prefer the ps3 controller for fps games(only). Better precision with the analog sticks for me.

I love how the PC guys quote the lowprices required to play the game at alright settings but then always show maxxed out gameplay images etc.. There is no doubt that the PC is superior for gaming and that article on that site is rubbish.If the PC ispurpose built for gaming it will destroy any console onthe highest settings, my question is; Who many people will have invested enough money to play a game like BF3 at the highest quality?

The only reason one needs to have when comparing consoles is just how bad the dualshock controller is. I have nightmares about my experiences trying to play fps games with that thing. All console FPS games might as well just be 360 exclusive as far as I'm concerned. However, if I do get it, I will get it on the PC since that's no doubt going to be the best version BY FAR.Ly_the_Fairy

That's a mighty fine opinion you got there, mister.

According to the developer on a tweet he said the recommended specs where for only medium settings and they are quite high. Ijust see the PC Guys ripping into the consoles guys stating how inferior the Console version will be and I would bet that most wont have the PC to run it at the highest quality they are referring to.

The opinion is strong with this one.

Wow, sounds like pure damage control for having the worst version on the market.

Early content and best looking console version? Uh, PS3, duh.

Or how about best looking version overall with 64 players? Yeah, PC.

This article cannot be serious.

ps3 version looks no better.

the only competition will be between online services and controller

XBL is better, but paid. and I prefer the 360 controller.

PS3 version looks much better. Everyone who's seen the game running on all 3 platforms has said that the PS3 version looks noticeably better when it comes to lighting and shadows. XBL is also no better than PSN, Microsoft only charges you because you're willing to pay. BF3 on PS3 also comes with Battlefield 1943.

link to quote from "everyone"? I've seen video of it running on 3, PC is infinitly better than both, ps3/360 look relatively the same.

XBL is much better, there is no arguement there (remember PSN down for... how long?)

already bought it, dont care.

Think what you'd like to think, but PSN is just as good as XBL. There is no argument there. PSN was down due to hackers, the exact same thing can happen to any service. Some people were glitch-banned from XBL for how long? I also remember people having their save files deleted due to XBL glitches. It's fine if you don't care, I'm just telling you that you're wrong. I'm not the one paying $60 for advertisements and very few exclusives.

Are you sure flight sticks will be supported in BF3 PS3?ActionRemix

PC version : - Looks slightly better than console - 64 player - Can use various controllers/flight sticks - Can use many off the shelf audio/mic solutions Downside : Hardware costs vastly more than $299, especially over 8-10 year lifespan of a console. 360 version : - Integrated XBL community - Best FPS controller in the business Downside : NO decent flight stick available Downside : 24 player only Downside : $60/year MSRP for "service" Downside : XBL mics tend to be garbage PS3 version : - Integrated PSN community - First dibs on DLC - Can use any USB flight stick and controller system - Can use any USB or proprietary comms setup Downside : 24 player only Analysis : If you can afford a good rig, get it for PC If you can't, then get it for PS3 If all you have is a 360, get it for thatZombieKiller7

PSN is much slower than XBL for updates, downloads, etc. I have never had a "glitch" and the entire service of PSN was down for a long time.

oh noeszzz 60$ a year. I'm happy to pay if I have a reliable / fast service.

and... what advertisements? and who brought up exclusives? as long as the platform(s) you own get the games you like.. what difference does it make if they are exclusive?

The price isn't the problem, it's the fact that you HAVE to pay to play a game online which you already bought, where on other services it's completely free. Personally, i don't give a rats B-hind what the service offers. I just want to play online. That's just one reason why i'll never pick up an Xbox 360.

the vast majority of console players wont even THINK about using a flight stick for this game

XBL > PSN, worth the 60$ / year

don't know what you mean by tend to be garbage, everyone has one and I can hear people clearly while playing...

and its a week, meaningless.

Well, I don't do PC gaming and I have only a Wii and a 360, so I'll be getting Battlefield 3 on the 360.

The 360 controller is ergonomically better. Especially for shooters. I own both consoles so you can't tell me otherwise. It's one of the reasons why I can't stand playing shooters on the PS3. I gave up on the first Resistance and KZ2 and I promised myself that I would never buy a shooter on PS3.percech

el3m2tigre

so basically what your saying is

you wouldn't pay even $1 a year for a superior service because all you want is bare-bones online play?

personally, I do care, so having psn free doesnt mean the game is better on ps3
