Bizarre, I wonder if BioShock comes thru.Massa said:Speaking of this I haven't seen a retailer confirm the promised free AC1 in AC: Revelations either. In fact a retailer here in Brazil confirmed it wouldn't have it, and the disc content here tends to be identical to the NA versions of pretty much any game.

At least they can make sweet sweet lemonade.Momo said:EA:
-hype cake
-take cake away
-give lemon instead

And I thought they already killed off the BF1943 servers. I tried playing 360 version several times last week and it couldn't connect to EA servers.
But at least it came out before Modern Warfare 3!enzo_gt said:As an outsider looking in, the BF3 launch is the biggest clusterfuck of any big game I've seen in a while. So much shit swirling in the air around the game.

It sold well on psn. Price is already at $10 and was given out with BC2, not sure wtf happened.Foliorum Viridum said:I don't understand why. 43 can't be selling well on PS3. Just dump it on the disc?
I always wondered why it was a bonus with Bad Company 2 Ultimate Edition instead of just waiting for Vietnam to be finished. EA does a lot of weird, useless shit.R2D4 said:The same Battlefield 1943 that came out two years ago? Oh ok. Why would you play that anyway when you can play Battlefield 3?
I wonder if this is the reason they didn't give it away.canadian crowe said:Watch EA decide to give us free copies of 1943, and then discontinue to servers a week later.
soulassssns said:That is EA not DICE
Yes, and I would add that if game reviewer's loved the industry they would give every game a 10. Don't they realize that developers' bonuses are tied to their Metacritic scores? If you want more games, you have to support the industry.Spike said:The devs have to keep food on their table. How can they do this by giving away a free game?
At least they are giving you a whole week of early access to their map pack expansions. Make sure you buy them as soon as they are available so that they can guarantee funding on their next project.
1943 was awesome, that's what it has.Max said:Wait...
What does 1943 have that BF3 doesn't? Not trying to sound like a dick but I'm just wondering why anyone would rather play an arcade spin-off over a mothership title.
I understand how this would make people mad about a promise being broken.
EA and Sony partnerships. They did it with MoH and Dead Space 2 so they were probably trying to continue that thing with their retail release of BF3. I'm not sure it was for the best as 1943 sold alot and most hardcore users or bf fans had it already.franknbeans said:I didnt understand why they initially decided to give it away for free in the first place. It was included in bad company two and was only 10 bucks on psn., but if they promised to include something, they should have followed through with it.

PaulLFC said:"Uh yeah, we were gonna give you something for free, but we can't be arsed / are too cheap, so instead, how about early access to stuff you have to PAY for? How's that sound? Enjoy!".
That tweet actually makes it sound as if gamers should be grateful about being able to give EA their money early...
That is the counter to bragging rights of people able to give Activision more money ealier if you are on Xbox 360. Things have tumbled down the hill quite a way from arguments over which shooter was getting the best free mods.strem said:Oh how nice they are! Giving PS3 users a chance to spend more money a week early. What a joke.
