There is one last thing that, due to words spoken and gauntlets thrown, everyone's going to want to know: who's won the war of the FPS this year. Whilst Battlefield 3 is an incredibly strong contender, it's a little bit rough around the edges, and some fa...
Overall, Battlefield 3 is a good solid game, but there are some definite places left for improvement. The single player would have been more successful if the player could just create a local server against bots as you could in Battlefield 1942, 2, and ...
Graphics, sound, and physics are fantastic, Tons of unlocks (though many repeat), Multiplayer has potential for excellence, Establishing your own play style is fun and rewarding, Battlelog if you like that kind of thing,

Abstract: Let's face it, when it comes to war games, only one franchise rolls off the tongue (and wallets) of gamers everywhere...Call of Duty. Well the folks at EA and DICE are looking to catch some of that proverbial cash flow and direct gamers onto what they ...
Abstract: When Battlefield 2 hit the shelves, I thought it was a little odd that it had a "2" in the title. Sure, BF2 was meant to be a sequel to Battlefield 1942, but aside from the spacious maps and vehicle-based play, the two had very little in common; certai...
When you shut down Battlefield 3 and let the Frostbite 2-powered dust settle, it certainly has some problems. But DICE’s adoration of and expertise with the online experience permeates every aspect of its multiplayer. Regardless of the narrative misste...
