  • The Xbox version looks a little bit more HD. I think.

  • Looks exactly the fucking same.

  • I can't see the difference, but its easier to play it on the xbox.

  • @captainkingable It lags. As hell. Easy as that, a blind turkey should even be able to see that.

  • @stupid4never it only lags, if you have crappy internet

  • I can't realy see any difference

  • eh as long as u play does it really matter.

  • The Xbox lagg

  • they might not be super far apart but its the suttle differences that make pc better like the tracers that follow the bullets after they are shot and when you take someones dogtags how the tags actually slide down the knife

  • PC WINS

  • OOH!!IM sorry!!!It is so much better to spend 3 times more on the pc and in 3 years upgrade all parts again than to buy a 300$ console(at most),that is if you have a decent ~500$ tv.Of course the graphics on PC are better(i have never been a witness of that but anyway).

  • @antoxin93 You could make a good PC which could run BF3 for roughly $600, also games are cheaper, you don't have to pay for online and you can do much more with a PC. Buying a PC is definitely worth it.

  • @ContinentalHeretic i got your meaning,but in my opinion its much better to buy an average laptop,and if you have a decent telly,to buy a console,andyou are good to go.

  • @ContinentalHeretic RUN BF3 doesnt mean btw anythig,now RUN on MAX specs does.If you have an AMAZING screen andyou canrun it on max,then its definetely better graphics than xbox but if you run it on medium specs on 13 inch screen,i dont think its any better if not worse.And btw,if the test wouldve been done on a tv screen and not on the pc screen(comaprison) consoles would get much closer :)

  • @antoxin93 With a $600 PC you could definitely run BF3 on MAX settings. This video doesn't even come close to showing what it is truly like to play BF3 on PC. I play on a console at the moment but I am looking to buy a PC soon because it is undeniable that you do get a better gaming experience on a PC. I don't care too much about graphics tbh but nobody plays the game properly on consoles.

  • If I'm used to be playing fps on Xbox, would I be able to switch to PC without gamepad? Like how long does it take to get used to. It took me a couple days for Skyrim.

  • now i see why my friend hated bf3 on xbox, because of the texture popup

  • you can get a gaming pc for $600 that runs everything better than xbox, and you wont have to worry about that ring of death bullshit, and you can watch porn on the net at the highest resolution lol

  • i'm planning to rob a bank to buy i7 2700k, gtx590 & 2 ocz vertex 3 240gb to replace my i3 2100, HD6670 & WD 1T caviar blue. now i only can play at 30fps @ 1080p with high setting. no, i should only rob pawn shop or sell a kidney if its worth it.

  • @yusszx 2500k, 560 ti should run anything. No need to overspend, or you could just upgrade your GPU to a 460 - that should work too.

  • wow, the xbox looks sooo much better! I thought PC's were supposed to be better. pffft.

  • @subby280 lol... you think xbox looks better... because this video you can't tell the difference IT'S LOW RESOLUTION. I assure you the xbox version is = to all low settings on PC. I have it for xbox and the PC version looks 100 x better even on medium.

  • Pc is deffinately better but I payed only 250$ for my xbox and I say I get my money's worth out of it. I'm not paying 500+ bucks for better graphics and more players in a game

  • @milkman5155

    Once you add in a(n) extra controller(s), the more expensive games and online, you could save $200 per year or more. Say $10 or more for the games each (not including sales on Steam for example (50/75% off things)), $50 for online and ~$40 for a gamepad. You could use that to build a new PC every few years (4 or so, every 2 hardware generations give or take). That'll ensure you get roughly double the performance every time you upgrade (graphics and CPU), if not triple.

  • i got a brand new gaming pc made myself and my parents got me bf3 for the xbox when i askde for it for the pc

  • I originally bought BF3 for the PS3 but then I saved up some money and built a gaming rig, I then purchased BF3 for the PC and it is AMAZING. While still fun on the console, the PC version is much better in every aspect.

  • PC better

  • dang, now ill have to buy an xbox...

  • PC so much better consoLOLOLOLOLOL

  • this is a horrible comparison. i own both versions and they are incomparable. the 360 is extremely low res, 30 fps max, and sloppy looking. the pc is native res, im running 55+ fps, and if u have the comp to handle it (im running all ultra, no aa deferred, 16x af), the detail and overall look of the game is stunning. console players, see it in person before you compare, these videos dont show the half of it.

  • Its crazy what the devs can do with the console hardware to make it even compare

  • @Alienshroom yeah, but allot of people are complaining about the hardware of the consoles being old.. (and nobody can deny that) but its excually pushing developers to a point were they have to make the consoles almost explode to make sure they get better graphics. and by doing that, developers get way better at programming games, so that when the new consoles come out, we get beautifull game. (atleast if sony or microsoft aren't going to put extreme complicated stuff in the systems)

  • @Alienshroom It's more like they restrict the PC version so it compares with the console version.

  • @EmulatorHeaven I wouldent disagree with that.

  • 40 extra players on PC and 3 times bigger map! nuff said!

    But the fact that Dice could make the console look good @ 720 27- 30fps with low res textures and 24 players is amazing! i guess... lol ps3/xbox is a beast!

  • I think Xbox versio not are install. Game work whitout install, but it not look so good and in old Xbox little lag.

  • PC is obviously better!!!

  • i literally ROFL'd at the name of this video.... jus had to watch it to make sure it wasn't a joke

  • I'm an Xbox gamer and the PC graphics are definitely better i'll admit

  • This was the beta, I can barely see the difference. However, I went over to my friend's house recently with my PC copy of BF3, and tried it on his computer. 720xWhatever on Low settings is equal to Xbox 360 with an HDMI. -sells xbox for fresh graphics card-

  • Well, seeing as how my PC sucks I couldn't see a difference :D

  • Im buying bf3 for xbox if its good enough ill buy it for pc to, :D

  • pc has far more smooth gameplay

  • The xbox version looks like it has low FPS.

  • @ManitasArriba xbox/ps3 version capped at 30 frames, so pc is obviously way more smoother 40+ fps at least with a decent GPU

  • I've played on both and it is without a doubt better on PC graphically and gameplay because of mods and custom servers.

  • unless you have an expensive pc that can play bf3 on the highest settings without lag it would b a good idea to get it for xbox or ps3

  • This video was recorded whilst the game was still in beta, retards

  • Thumbs up if u see almost no reason to pay for a pc for what i call subtle differences in graphics between pc and consoles.

  • @F3ArCh3k stupid console fag stick to 2005

  • @F3ArCh3k Subtle? You must be blind. PC = Superior Graphics. You're also locked at 30fps on console. You won't see the true difference in graphics unless you have Battlefield 3 on a good PC, which you don't.

  • ps3 and xbox dont give you servers with knife only and flying map training to level up quick jets soo pc is much better

  • @2015danteinferno knife only servers arent that big a deal, and id rather not have people power leveling

  • WTF consoles are not laggy as this this is biased i hate videos like these. my PS3 vers. of BF3 runs perfectly smoothly >:(

  • Holy shit, never realized how bad Xbox graphics are. Of course, I've always never wasted my money on a console...

  • Well, it's because they were practically done developing it for PC. That's why they did it near the release date.

  • IGN are a pack of idiots. You can't compare xbox to PCs, you can only compare it to a PC. ^_^

  • According to my analysis, BF3 was made for PC. They actually hired hackers to try to hack so BF3 could fix it. Therefore, they dumbed it down for xbox 360 and PS3, but its all out for PC. Plus the computer has better control of the shading and lighting while PS3 and Xbox users have like a million diffrent kind of TVs out there -__-.

  • @marvensdorcelian Battlefield 3 was initially made for the pc, however, near release date they moved half of the pc dev team to the console team. This left the pc version the exclusion of the server browser, dumb command ross lighthing glitches.

    All because they were rushing to put it out before MW3..

  • i only like the music

  • There is no way this is real I play BF3 on the xbox and the frame rate looks nothing like that.

    But im going to cut you some slack and say that its just your capture card that has the frame rate issue

  • @EVLG Its youtube's frame rate settings.

  • I've played both xbox and PC version and there definitely is a difference.

  • What resolution was the pc at? His arm cuts off before the elbow....

  • Really annoying music.

  • all you need is a $40 HDMI cable and the Graphics are two times better then the PC

  • @Th3BrownClan oh yea lol pc has dx 11 and thats it (.....),,, the quality on pc can never be beaten cuze pc can be upgraded anytime !!!!

  • @Th3BrownClan All i have to say in response to this is....WHAT?

  • pc is WAAAAAAAYYYYYYYY better. better graphics core, better processor. dont forget, u need to buy a tv with an xbox

    and with pc, online gameplay is free, so u dont need that xbox live shit

    and pc games cost cheaper

  • Xbox is cheaper. and runs as good. so ill sacrifice graphics.

  • I don't see the difference but I know that graphics on pc can be much better than on Xbox

  • 568 people is xbox's fanboys

  • you know theres a sprint button right

  • pc !!! is better

    

  • lmfao i love how everyone thinks ps3 has the better graphics when xbox has better graphic specs in every category but it still looks and runs pretty much the same as ps3. Anyway the xbox doesn't lag like that the guy who made this video is a fanboy. If a gamed lagged like that on any console it wouldn't be released

  • Wow IGN, Fuck you. Why You make Xbox version lag hard as fuck? THERE IS NO DIFFERENCE

  • It's been said before and I'll say it too. You can't spell Ignorant without IGN. Receive your pay from Activision yet about those reviews?

  • how much memory does it take up on PC?????

  • @triton62674 How many ppl doesn't care about that because they've enough money to buy a PC that can run these games in a good quality? Retard.

  • @triton62674 I got it from origin and it takes up about 14.9GB

  • Xbox has low fps and looks worse than pc, pc has more detail and a higher fps, which make it more playable

  • 666 likes?

  • I see no difference.

  • I put it on 240p, I laughed more than anything!

  • Ign, once again, fails at ratings and comparisons. I never get lag like that on my Xbox. Fucking retards, why do they keep making videos when 90% of them are shit as you can tell from the dislike bar.

  • xbox 360 graphics = low settings on PC. PC all the way!

  • PC Graphics awesome but i have xbox and pc and ps3 damm

  • I own a 360, but admitting the fact PC rapes both ps3 and Xbox, ps3 has more into it than Xbox 360. Xbox has quicker graphics loading, but ps3 has more Detail. Such as if you shoot the wall, the bullet blast appears. Also in campaign, in PC and ps3, some scenes have vision blur to effect the campaign. While 360 are missing features. But it is very minor. 360 does have bf3s most community. And it loads faster than ps3. Just fire is weaker. And very little graphical substances

  • @kyuui007 i agree that

  • Shut up and download your torrents xbox rules

  • fan boys are mad lol

  • too many buttons on PC more diffcult

  • @MadFrostTiger Its actually easier than it looks...

  • @hostage20061990 As long as you upgrade your video card, you will be fine. I suggest a ATI 6670. If you run this with your computer you can probably run BF3 on high/max like I can.

  • xbox 360 is a lagging pos

  • bf 3 looks ugly on xbox 360 BF 3 looks fucking awesome on ps3 and pc

  • @keymakerz1 Your not right, sorry. Look up BF3 Xbox vs PS3 and tell me which looks better. And I dont really notice an "OH WOW" difference between PC and Xbox. I've played PC, PS3, and Xbox and PC looks best and Xbox is second but PS3 has the worst graphics out of the current generation consoles.

  • @Tomatthanex Actually the WII does xbox and PS3 are the same

  • @gtamission92 well, yeah but I think that Xbox has more detail and richer colors

  • Awesome

    

  • ps3 best

  • @xaviermaximo619 you're a retard.

  • this is a very IGNorant fucking comparison... i have both systems and bf3 on both... i wouldnt even bother comparing the two... the 360 is on a samsung series 7 LED 42" with hdmi, the PC runs on DVI with a series 8 LED 24" on 1920 res... dont compare a 2012 2500usd last gen computer with a 2005 149usd console... its just plain retarded when it comes to games that are built around i7 processors... BF3 is still amazing and smooth on xbox, but the full experience is only for PC gamers with cash.

  • @misterzeerow This statement is the least bs response to this video.

    Either way, I still notice texture pop in on PC (although not as obviously distracting as on consoles).

  • @ishkaboo you need a ATi Radeon 6990 running with 1600mhz ram, its pricey but the textel rate of this GPU is TWICE the ammount of the biggest NVIDIA one. textel is basically what does texture and clipping. I notice nothing but bf3 awesomeness lol

  • also pc utilizes extra stuff for bf3 :)

  • thats why xbox360 users play mw3

  • Bad comparison.

  • Fake lol i'm on xbox and i've got the same fucking graphism as the guy on pc. it's exactly the same.

  • @SvkFoot No you don't, lol.

  • @KobaltKour I see the same graphism as the pc's. It's the same for me.

  • @SvkFoot you're saying that BF3 looks exactly the same on PC and 360...? you must be blind or retarded...

  • btw youtube has their video at 27 frames so you wont seethe 60 frames that the pc has but a good way to imagine it between the two is pc is fluid and smooth like cod. cod sucks but its a very smooth game so imagine the awesome possum graphics mixed with the ultra smoothness thats the major reason why pc wins. Doesnt matter, play the platform that you have the most fun in but remember on pc you get killed by an asian kid a lot btw.

  • Notice how the PC renders the walls and shrubbery nicely (light + shade), where the Xbox just has this matte coloring. PC > Xbox all the time

  • Console=30fps

    PC=What ever the fuck you want.

  • Its not noticeable if your having fun, but PC is always better. I have a Ps3.

  • Xbox

  • The thing that bothers me is that your American assault class is a black guy wth a sleevless uniform, yet it appears you are a white guy wearing a sleevless/t-shirl like uniform.

  • wow nice i you lie ign the xbox you have or edited is making it lag like a mother fucker well cant trust your gaming vids anymore oh well

  • stop comparing... play the game...

  • I own all main consoles of PS3 and XBOX, and i also own a PC that can run my Skyrim on high.

    In my opinion, after comparing this myself, their is absolutely no difference of graphics.

    IGN is just making the XBOX one lag hard as fuck, as you can see.

    It is not like that, they both run smoothly.

  • @PretendHome Its not going to be a stellar difference. That is the thing, the computer can afford to use its graphics card to render SMALL DETAILS. If Battlefield 3's graphics differed greatly from PC to Xbox/PS3, They would have to upgrade the console's or downgrade the PC's because I am sure that there is a regulation saying that the games must look within X amount of each other, etc.

  • @Thompsonlover97 Lol!Listen To This Fool.Pc,Xbox And Ps3 Games Graphics Are Th Same?Lol!What A Dumbass

  • @PretendHome The fact you just said you can run skyim on high made me laugh, I also own an xbox, the PC has bigger maps, more players online, and better graphics.

    P.S a 5 year old graphics card can run skyrim on high you idiot

  • @LameCleft

    "The Fact" that you took my reason For WHY i have a PC, is that i want to play Skyrim.

    Next time, don't be such a cuntface and insult me without any grammar.

  • @PretendHome are you kidding?? just look at the leaves on the trees. Look at the ground textures. then re evaluate that thought... Also. I bet your xbox cant run at 1920x1200... Nor can it have 4x4 AA, or 32x anisotropic filtering, or any of the other awsome features on modern gfx cards. Nor can games be modded... Just that alone is a huge turnoff from consoles. Not just this game, but every game.its just absurd to say there is no difference.

  • @ketatrypt Why do you add such irrelevant facts?

    Were talking about Graphics here bud.

    Also, anisotropic filtering is used on the PS3 Titles.

    Your arguement is invalid.

  • @PretendHome problem is, your opinion doesnt matter, it is a FACT that PC has better graphical fidelity,

  • @PretendHome Em... you're stupid I guess.. you can't set your graphics on console

  • @PretendHome and why would they do that

  • @PretendHome your PC is mediocre at best... skyrim isnt much of a heavy game... its fucking fallout 3 with dragons. run a futuremark test and let us know if you score over 6000 and post it.

    your opinion is plain retard. the graphical differences between the PC version and the console one is so fucking obvious you have to be mongoloid not to notice it. the consoles versions do run smooth. but trust me they dont even compare to PC graphics on ultra.

    having a PC doesnt mean you have a gaming PC.

  • @PretendHome

    The reason there's not so much notable difference between the Consoles and PC in BF3 is that DICE chooses to have less players and no jets in the console. If those 2 things are implemented, you'd see a big difference (BF3 vs MW3 difference)

  • @Archer2509 false information ftl? considering i play it on 360 it has jets so yea try again plz

  • @edgeacate

    hmm interesting...

    Change that to 64vs64 and we got it

  • @Archer2509 No jets? are you on crack?

  • if u use the HDMI on xbox there will be no differences

  • @Exabdulrahman5555 nope PC is not only resolution but also more detailed shadows more textures both look great but PC looks better and can handle more players and way bigger maps

  • it kills to say but the xbox looked better.

  • xbox is like pc on low settings

  • What if my PC's gaming rating is 5.6 and graphics 5.8?

  • @Danteex3 find out what your hardware is first

  • They look the same but pc has better lighting

  • That's the beta. Not the full release

  • AcebyteHD: Thats not try mindfucker my xbox

  • u can use da  HDMI to get a high def on xbox

  • All Consoles (Xbox,Ps3) have 720p while playing but pc can have 1080p if u got a good one. You can see this if you look at the HUD at the Xbox side its smaller than on the pc`s side

  • I don't know what sort of xbox 360 you have but I don't have this framerate with mine.... Buy a new 360!!!

  • Thumbs down because of your fucking adds.

  • PC hands down.... the textures are darker but that is because real life is not bright as shit

  • Wtf xbox looks better

  • I want PC so much but my PC cant handle it... Now i'm stuck with fucking 360.

  • @MrMAMACAPITAL Its not always about graphics, its about gameplay. but i did juzz my pants....

  • @MrMAMACAPITAL same here :(

  • I DOesnot have an pc or xbox 360 bUT suRE !PS1!

  • I see Xbox more lagy and PC is more smooth when walking around

  • I see no difference

  • what if u connect it with hdmi cables to xbox it would look allittle bit more better isn it?

  • Are you idiots blind? Look at the framerate difference.

    The Xbox is at 30 and the PC is at 45-60.

  • @mcluvin9858 yah but still frame rate you just get more picture frames but pc you get more detail and more frames.

    

  • Althouth pc does look amazing i've tweaked my tv to make it look almost as good as a pc on my ps3 it just takes lots of fiddling (not fiddling of a sexual nature).

  • @maxcalcroft nope, console detail will never look as good as it is on pc, even if you fiddle around in your pc.

    on the consoles the game is upscaled to 720p, plays at 30fps, on low detail level.

    360 and ps3 are 6 year old hardware and dont even support direct x 10, when pc battlefield 3 runs with direct x 11

    trust me a good £700 gaming pc outperforms any console by a 10 miles

  • So jealous of the PC graphics, but I'm happy enough with my Xbox. PC takes too much money to invest in.

  • It's hard to tell in 240p.
