[Shadow780]

BF3:

 

[Seda]

What was your favorite part? The part where there were dust storms or the part where there was a tank?

This is how I feel sorta....looking pretty != awesome game, though it certainly helps.

I'm not sure of even how much control he had of the tank.

 

[polyh3dron]

Insomniac's CG trailer sold me on the idea of the game and the weapons.

 

[NumberTwo]

LOL at the people trying their damnedest to poo poo this.

 

[Deadly Cyclone]

Aw man, end of October/beginning of November:

Battlefield 3, a week later Uncharted 3, a week later MW3 and Skyrim, a week later Saint's Row 3

 

[daffy]

Battlefield 3 wins E3 so far.

Obviously PC version. Console peasants will cry when it doesn't look like that on their consoles.

They don't care.

 

[Basch]

Battlefield 3 might be my Game of the Year.

Anybody want to help me build a PC powerful enough to run that? lol

Aw man, end of October/beginning of November:

Battlefield 3, a week later Uncharted 3, a week later MW3 and Skyrim, a week later Saint's Row 3

Jesus, not fair. But you could've left MW3 out. Not picking that up right away. Bargain bin maybe.

 

[The Outsider]

Wow, Battlefield looks absolutely incredible.

 

[Frillen]

Graphics in Battlefield 3, WOWOWOW. Demo a bit boring though.

 

[Plinko]

Great graphics on that Battlefield 3 demo but, overall, a boring conference.

 

[Rad-]

Boring conference. Can't believe they didn't show any proper BF3 MP footage.

lol at the people saying boring demo, explains why CoD sells millions.

That was a dull demo and BF2 is my favorite shooter ever.

 

[Deacan]

3rd party devs really are bringing home the bacon, lots of great looking games.

 

[Rorschach]

Boringfield 3 was boring as fuck.

 

[Oreoleo]

where is mirrors edge 2 =(

Is this some new meme I missed? It's been known for a while that Mirror's Edge 2 is on indefinite hold.

 

[Cerebral Assassin]

No Shadow of the Damned?

 

[[Nintex]]

Great show, I like how JR gave Sony and Microsoft a special shout-out and Nintendo wasn't there. Still working with those third parties I see lol. Also did Don Mattrick 'woohooo' during the Insomniac now on Xbox bit?

 

[The Omega Man]

Console demo of BF3 at Sony conference?

Since the Modern Warfare franchise is in bed with MS this wouldn't surprise me

 

[thechemist]

Battlefield looks amazing

 

[Warrior_Keoni]

Well, I'm sold on Battlefield 3 as of this moment. Open beta in September? Sure thing!

 

[whitehawk]

Oh god. Battlefield makes me want to get a super awesome PC, but I don't have the monieesss!

 

[Darklord]

What was your favorite part? The part where there were dust storms or the part where there was a tank?

The infrared bit, the airstrike bit, the graphics, the sound, the tank combat.

 

[Art Teitlebaum]

BF3 was fantastic. But where is the Mirror's Edge sequel?

 

[Klocker]

Aw man, end of October/beginning of November:

Battlefield 3, a week later Uncharted 3, a week later MW3 and Skyrim, a week later Saint's Row 3

then gears3 and Halo CE too. shit!

 

[ToyBroker]

No Shadow of the Damned?

Why bother? That's not main stage shit.

It's coming out so soon.

 

[Nemesis121]

BF3 looked great but the genre is stale and is being milked by so many companies...

 

[Garjon]

Not a great conference it has to be said. There was far too much CGI domination though on the other hand, the sequences involving gameplay seemed uninspired, particularly the NFS section and the BF3 demo took far too long to get going. I enjoyed this one more than MS's though if only due to the better pacing, digs at CoD and the 100% focus on the games themselves.
I strongly dislike the diss against MS for having celebrities and then wheeling on 3 celebrities for the Madden section though. And Insomniac's game looks interesting, though it is almost impossible to make any sort of judgement on the game itself; I can't even tell what genre of game it'll be from what they showed us. I hope we get a lot more BF3 MP footage this week as well.

 

[Tiktaalik]

Battlefield 3 + Frostbite Engine 2 just looked absolutely godlike. I've never really played the Battlefield series and I've mostly sat out FPS games this gen, but after that presentation I'm day one.

 

[Anerythristic]

Oh Lord. That was a boring BF3 demo, plain and simple. As well as the most unrealistic tank battle I have ever seen, ever. That tank battle was about as unrealistic as any battle in the MW series.

 

[Kung Fu Grip]

What was your favorite part? The part where there were dust storms or the part where there was a tank?

:lol

 

[paskowitz]

EA:

MS:

 

[EP8]

Thank god they didn't go the casual route like MicroSOFT

 

[belvedere]

BF3 looked great but the genre is stale and is being milked by so many companies...

Wrong 3. You must mean MW3.

 

[NeoUltima]

Hope BF3 looks that good on consoles :/

Was hoping to see mutliplayer. That tank gameplay was awesome looking, but got old really fast.

 

[Igo]

What was your favorite part? The part where there were dust storms or the part where there was a tank?

I know you don't want a real answer but definitely the parts where the dust clouds were obscuring his targets. I'm imagining myself playing it and I can already feel the tension. This will be godly online.

 

[bumpkin]

I was hoping we'd see a little NHL 12 in there somewhere.

 

[Gandie]

This is how I feel sorta....looking pretty != awesome game, though it certainly helps.

I'm not sure of even how much control he had of the tank.

Are you serious? He had full control over the tank, just like in BC2 for example. They even showed the on-screen hints for steering the tank at the beginning.

 

[Barack Lesnar]

BF3 looked great but that demo was WAY too long and got boring quick. I'd imagine it's not boring when you play it but watching it like that... I was like come on, get out of the tank, do something.

 

[FinKL]

THE DIRT, THE FREE STAT TRACKING, THAT RELEASE DATE?!?!!
<3

 

[Totobeni]

OverStrike and BF3 completely DESTROYED Microsoft's conference.

BF3 am with you

...but a CG trailer (Overstrike) don't count at all.

 

[Gaz Pwnage]

BF3 looks absolutely amazing.

I hope over strike is 4 player co-op, could be another borderlands

 

[Deleted member 8095]

For the record, I think both BF3 and MW3 will be awesome and I will buy both of them day 1. It is possible to like both. I just wish they showed a better demo.

 

[DUN GOOFD]

Borefield 3 is definitely not taking over CoD's top spot. its got better graphics but thats about it.

 

[zychi]

then gears3 and Halo CE too. shit!

and zelda, and cafe!

goodbye money.

 

[Rahxephon91]

exactly...one looks real, one looks like a video game

One looks like fun, one looks boring.

And man talk about an insult. I mean what kind of video game wants to look like a video game?

 

[AltogetherAndrews]

Boring=Not running around like a paintballer on acid.

Meh. I thought it looked boring because you were locked in a vehicle moving through a boring environment doing the same not very exciting thing for a long time. Tanks don't interest me, at all, and desert plains are just desert plains. I can crawl through an entire level in Ghost Recon without getting bored, so that's not it.

 

[Fjordson]

Console peasants will cry when it doesn't look like that on their consoles.

People on consoles won't give a shit.

 

[Sianos]

So, I guess its time for Ubisoft to lower the bar again, and after that we'll have the NGP and Cafe blowouts?

I love E3. <3

 

[MasterShotgun]

Immediate impressions.

God Tier
Battlefield 3
Mass Effect 3 (that big ass Reaper won me over)

[Klocker]

Thank god they didn't go the casual route like MicroSOFT

that's why MS has 3rd parties. they are covering all the bases and taking advantage of the annual mainstream media blitz to see Kinect. console core is already well satisfied.
