meh... still saves me over $200 on a new GPU just to play bigger maps and slightly better visuals. I just don't want to spend the money for gaming on my PC. I'd rather build a PC and leave it alone for 6yrs then build a new one.

There's a point in time when you have to realize its good enough to be really enjoyable as is.



HIGH = what the game is designed for.

In your face!

Does this surprise anyone, though? Current gen consoles are getting really old now. That said, there are still visually impressive platform exclusives being produced for the PS360.

superchunk: yeah, its all about priority. For me, its easily worth it, just bought a new rig a few weeks ago and the amount I spent on it equals what many of my friends spend each year on iPhones with accessories so I don't see it as quite that bad to be honest. I choose to spend my cash on PC instead of smart phones, tablets and other shit I don't need. I can see your point, I really can, I was a console gamer before but just can't seem to get fully into it again after I started using performance PC's. Of course, I also use my PC for almost all media and web browsing so it has more uses besides gaming (then again, so do some consoles). But, we are not talking "slightly better visuals", we are talking vastly superior visuals, endless amounts of mods, cheaper games and DLC, better framerates and overall performance and superior controls, its not simply "slightly better visuals". I'll have to respectfully disagree there. And its not like you need an upgrade evyer six months either, like many make it up to be.

I agree with you and note that PC gaming is the best solution... for a single player. However, I'd rather buy 3-4 new games right now than a GPU.

I have a family/kids and I don't want them all gaming on my one PC as its not conducive to local multiplayer and I'm not putting together multiple high-end computers. Instead its cheaper and easier to buy a console for the TV.

When I had no kids... I had PC gaming only. With a family.. PC gaming is just not the best solution. No local multiplayer. Have to buy n (where n = number of players) higher-end PCs and then you're still in different rooms. i.e. it sucks for local. Consoles are far more family friendly and cheaper under these circumstances.

I'd rather have BF3 on my PC. I've said that since it released. I refused to originally buy BFBC2 due to it being a console build, however, in the end.. it just made more sense for me and my family to buy the PS3 version. So I bought BFBC2 to get used to dual analog and will buy BF3 so I can play locally with kids as well as online with others.... the lower pixel count won't really diminish my fun in the long run.

Agreed, the social aspect on the PC is all but vanishing. We used to have LAN's all the time before but now everything happens online. If you have kids as well, the pure technical aspect and logistics also speak for consoles and their role in the entertainment world!

the lower pixel count may not, but the lack of local multiplayer might...

Nobody expects BF3 to outsell MW3. Not even EA. So why would you be surprised if MW3 outsold BF 3 ? Never heard this sentence before. If BF3 does insanly well it will sell HALF of MW3. That is optimistic. BF is nowhere near the size of COD. Black Ops/MW2 sold more then every Battlefield title on all platforms together. Hype=/=sales

Wtf are you talking about?Dice claimed themselves that Battlefield 3 will be the Call of Duty killer.They said MW3 will be the last game Infinity Ward/Treyarch makes.

Not only that but I just want to see all the PC fanboys who hyped this game up until now feel that they once again got outsold by Call of Duty.

Dude, Great album, but your logic is wrong. DICE initially said that they wanted BF3 to be the COD killer. About a month ago DICE admitted that BF3 will not beat COD this year, however they said that sales of BF3 will easily be the highest in the series. Even if BF3 sells half of MW3,it will have taken a crunch of MW's market and will be a success. People, and the industry, want a game to compete with COD and hopefully BF3 does this!

What do you mean Great album?

Anyways I guess I was wrong but, still I can't wait for MW3 to outsell BF3 maybe that will help get DICE'S head out their asses and start developing Mirror's Edge 2 that's a game that actually deserves a sequal.
