No worries. I think I've talked myself into getting the PS3 version anyways.

1) I don't have to buy a $200+ GPU. (biggest reason as I don't plan on any other PC game)
2) I've been playing BFBC2 on my Ps3 for a week now and have gotten far better with dual analog controls. (still inferior to kb/ms)
3) The graphics will be ok, the solo game will be the same, and smaller/tighter maps of 24 are not the end of the world.

Additionally, I don't have to fuck with DRM, Origin/Steam, and other crap. It also appears that the PS3 version is the lead console version, so it should be pretty decent.


Your reasons are all ncie and good. Then you get to #3. I hate to break it to you but 24 vs 64 is a 40 player difference. Just how much awesome 40 extra players are compared to the consoles' 24 is like night and day. Hell BC2 is stuck at 32 and I feel the maps are too sparse as it is.

I fully understand that. Having played the shit out of BF1942, BF2, BF2142... I love the massive battlefields and tons of players. However, having at least 6 other games to play due to not buying a new GPU is a pretty big trade-in for smaller maps and less players. I know BF3 will be a lot better than BFBC2 and I'm having fun with it already so I know BF3 will still be a lot of fun.
