  • should i get this or skyrim

  • @jojonr619 it kind of depends on your style. I have both, and Skyrim didnt seem my style before, but i seriously love it. BF3 is my favorite FPS though, i say try both at friends or gameplays on the internet

  • @jojonr619 this

  • @jojonr619 SKYRIM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! but is my style. BF has better gameplay. but i seriously always get lost in skyrims world.

  • ...or how whenever you get killed, it skips to that retarded screen of the person who killed you that is a) not interesting to look at and b) can't be skipped (I seriously hate that so much, not being able to quit, not being able to change kits or ANYTHING!). For a game that is so focused on the multiplayer, it has some big faults that have really turned me off of it.

  • Is it just me or is anyone else really annoyed with the matchmaking with this game. It seems like half the time whenever I want to join a server, the game instantly ends because people were quitting and opening spots, or how there is no lobby in between games to talk to other people or to customize kits or vehicles (I mean that's something that Halo and Call of Duty have been doing for years), or how in 80% of the games I play, the teams are really poorly matched and one just dominates, or...

  • Nigger cod lover cod should get a 1.0 its recycled Shit all over again every year 60-100$ down the drain noob

  • this game sucks it should be like 2.5 and from what i seen mw3 is 10o times better than this shit

  • @MrPointyHead77=Le retarded CoD fanboy

  • I have both mw3 and bf3 and in my opinion, bf3 is much better overall. Mw3 gets boring really fast cus there's only so much you can do. In bf3 you can do everything you can do in cod but more. COD makes me rage, BF3 is less stressful and intense

  • The campaign in mw3 is no better than bf3, so stop saying mw3 campaign is better

  • @gamer7916 well it is definetly better for sure

  • i love this game i have been playing the series since bad company 1

  • the way he says that Xbox users get the optional HD textures pack, it makes it seem like it is an xbox exclusive even though PS3 gets it automatically

  • I LOVE MW2 but 3 has lost its edge was going to go along with it all play it to death but im getting bf3 now just need something new i was enjoying bf 1943 so much

  • mw3 and bf3 r both good games

    stop arguing

  • *sigh* The ONLY reason people hate on MW3 is because the multiplayer sucks. Its decent. But, you guys need to stop hating and play the CAMPAIGN! If you play all 3 Modern Warfares, you'll see just how much the developers nailed the storyline. Its amazing.

  • BF------------------- COD. If battlefield got in a knife fight with COD, BF would get a few slash marks, and COD would get a hole in it's throat. :D

  • bfbc2>bf3

  • add me on psn BEAR-ARMZ i have a mic

  • In COD, you have perks

    In BF3, you ARE the perks lol

  • Comment removed

  • Along with some glitches? The game suffers? What glitch has hinder me in this game? I can't think of any...Asides from very entertaining jet fail for my Jet landed upside down and 'tried' to keep going forward. But for the Campaign? Ehhhh...It was...nope. No glitches. I'll agree the story was boring. But since when has the pure Battlefield, not the BC spin off, been about single player? Battlefield 2 (Not BF:BC2) didn't even have a story mode. And thatsed hail as one of the best PC games ever.

  • Bad Company 2 gave me a boner

    Battlefield 3 killed it

  • @trollollollolll so i take you hate bf3?

  • @TheRockNbombeR not hate, just disappointed.

  • @trollollollolll yeah single player was ok multiplayer awesome but needed more destructible enviroments and recon was way better in bc2 and the bolt action was alot better

  • @TheRockNbombeR yea destruction in BC2 was endless. With BF3's more detailed maps, its dumbed down

  • @trollollollolll true bf3 is awesome but bc2 is better

  • For consoles i would give it 7.5/10, PC 8.5/10, its good but not that good, and it should of been only MP game, and NOOO i dont have any COD game.

  • does the HD Pack work in multiplayer too, or does it just make singleplayer look better?

  • Cy

  • If you hate the campaign so much why dont you just leave it alone? like... they dont force you to play it or anything. just go to MP..

  • @marth380 I liked the campaign, but however every game should have a campaign.

  • whats the point of making a consle AND a pc review of this game when they are exactly the same?

  • 1. I came

    2. Saw no comment wars

    3. I left

  • Look guys. Battlefield 3 is a multiplayer game. But the single player campaign isn't nearly as bad as the videos says! It's intense, cinematic, sure the plot is cliche but so is a lot of other incredibly good games. So if you buy Battlefield 3 don't play only multiplayer.

  • Comment removed

  • Im just glad they finally didnt compare it to cod

  • why not a 9.5 normaly most people dont even play the campaign thats stupid that they bring it down a whole point and like in other games they will say nothing is wrong with it and at the end they give it all + but they give it a 9 wtf ign you suck

  • @TheSilverhawk08 every one plays the campain but i do agree wat he said about taking the campain to serious well yea thats stupid

  • EA pisses me off for that stupied ass pass

  • hahaha and ofcourse russians

  • Don't listen to this review.

    The single player campaign is the most realistic experience on marine warfare.

  • lol cod elite ad on bf3 vid

  • @TheKjerstad Unless you are a big UFC fan, you should buy BF 3, UFC just gets boring after a while, BF 3 doesnt :)

  • should i buy BF3 or ufc 3 PLEASE LET ME KNOW

  • @TheKjerstad UFC is gay just get battlefield 3.

    BTW this is irrelevant but saints row 3 is really good you might wanna try that

  • @TheKjerstad you'll spend more time on BF3 if you play online. If you're in it for single player and long career mode UFC is your pick

  • Bad company 2 is better

  • ok campain wasn't the best but still it was decent mp was epic it is every time different

  • there was no need for two reviews. seeing as everything is the exact same on all platforms execpt graphics and of course, 64 players.

  • This overrates the multiplayer, Its decent but the quality of maps is mediocre and they have no originality. And if you play Deathmatch the maps get old, they feel alot smaller and with only 9 in the entire game it gets boring. The gameplay is solid though, although there is alot more people camping than other FPS' because of the amount of buildings/corners. The campaign was poor. The characters are wooden, dialogue is over the top and cliché and the gameplay is more boring than Cod campaigns.

  • I might get bf3, but I playing mw2 for bow

  • The campaign was good, here is the real reason it got docked:

    +Multiplayer rocks

    +Sound design

    +Fun vehicles

    -EA

    No offence to Battlefield and Dice in general.

  • @crow5141 you make a good point

  • @crow5141 the minus is -not call of duty

  • BT3 sucks balls COD is the best

  • @MrPointyHead77 are you trolling??

  • I find that the Russian Assault is better then the American Assault

  • NO TOP COMMENT. HERES MY CHANCE ... TITS :3

  • online multiplayer is EPIC!!!!

  • i hate how ign says stuff about the lag in battlefield 3 but in the mw3 review they mention nothing about the horrible lag yuo experience every game COD,not trying to be a fanboy

  • @thatoneguy12341000 Even though I love BF3, I have to admit there IS a lag. In MW3 there is no lag. How? It is 60 fps goddamnit.

  • Do alot of people still play BT3?

  • @blackdude115 It just came out a few months ago....of course people still play it.

  • stop comparing MW3 and Battlefield 3 IDIOTS.Both of games are fucking good and thats a fact,which game is better is just a matter of taste.

  • @Oh6Hell6No6 THATS RIGHT!!!

  • @Oh6Hell6No6 thats what i say about xbox 360 and ps3

  • @Oh6Hell6No6 BF3 RULES!!!

  • @Oh6Hell6No6 Call of Duty is for idiots

  • @Oh6Hell6No6 MW3 is good? lolno

  • @Oh6Hell6No6 No mw3 sucks i have it and its fking gay

  • I like how there was a CAll of Duty Elite add before my video :P

  • BF3>CoD, enough said.

  • @VioletSmok3 Modern Warfare 3 is the best shooter ever til this day.

    Every developer these days is trying to reach this level instead of trying to be original.

    BF3's controlls aren't responsive, way too slow paced and so many people in a huge map doesn't make any sense.

    With all these glitches in BF3, i think it's ignorant that people claim BF3 to be more realistic than Mw3 LOL

    Just look at Mw3's sales, proves everything just face it... Mw3 > BF3

  • @RandomDudee11 wrong on many parts my friend, battlefield 2 came out a couple of years before modern warfare did therefore that doesn't slow paced really? ive found people on maps in less than seconds especially with the system of spawning on your squad mates, there are very little glitches in the retail version you might be thinking of the beta, modern warfare uses the same engine as the games before an engine from the 90's, and only the only reason the game sells allot is because of fanboys

  • @RandomDudee11

    goldeneye 007?

  • @RandomDudee11 Anyone who says either Mw3 or BF3 are realistic is a total dumbass. Neither are.

  • @mrmapegothe13th Finally, a sane gamer. You're right though.

    *Guy gets stabed in the throat*

    Medic: I got this! *Pulls out defibrillators*

    Mw3 is worse though.

    * 50. point blank to the chest* Wtf ....

    *Knife to the foot* OH THE AGONY!!! *dies*

  • @crow5141 Indeed, i would have to say if i had to pick one to be closer to being realistic it would be battlefield, the large maps, larger teams, vehicles, and weapons used by the militaries in real life ( For example a Russian isnt running around with an m16, hes using some AK variant, just as a U.S soldier is using an m16 or m4 variant and not an AK). Still, neither are realistic. Im currently enlisted in the USMC, going to boot soon.

  • @mrmapegothe13th Well I mean its a video game its not real life. But, if I had to choose Battlefield is hands down more realistic than MW3

  • @RandomDudee11 BF3 got more sales than MW3 check if you wanna

  • So with this videro review and the COD review you mean that .... BF3=COD???? Are you sure about that IGN??? I mean even my dog could tell the difference in those two games...

    You gave bf3 9.0 pointes and so did with cod... COD has 9.0 points too....

  • Is there any offline multiplayer bots, so I can just play offline cos right now I'm thinking of getting bf3 though I want to know if u can play multiplayer offline with bots. So is there any or not???

  • cliche? how? the campaign stuck to its main plot, then made a sub plot with the russians, then the sub plot caught up with the main plot and then finished the main plot. Who ever does these reviews for IGN needs to go back to school.

  • nothing about the co-op mod?

  • I love this game but my bf3 gets laggy torwards the end of rush matches. :(

  • I prefer this game since it has destruction for buildings, vehicles, and bigger maps and to me COD is just the same game over and over.

  • I liked the campaign so for me it was a 1.0.

  • What is the song at 3:30?

  • @goldensoldier100 Gods gonna cut you down - johnny cash

  • I wish they would do bad company 3

  • i think they gave mw3 and bf3 the same score so that they would'nt be part of the mw3 vs bf3 war =P

  • this or twisted metal? answer fast

  • @cheezo545 this easily

  • @cheezo545 this unless u grew up with twisted metal and loved it, but this is easily a better game, but twisted metal might be funner for u

  • @aLLSTAR101PS3 wtf this better then twisted metal? HAHAHA

  • Lol Top Comment? Not Me ha ha, 

  • no top comment my time to shine

  • how does it not go leaps and bounds. Its got a brand new engine just for the game. They improved the sound effects. I bet they dont say that to COD even though they used the same engine for 4 games

  • What do they mean that the graphics dont go leaps and bounds beyond bc2?

  • Id give this game a 8/10 just from the multiplayer alone. Its very good, but the single player is complete garbage. But even after fixing the servers this game is still fun when your playing against the right people. But most of the time this game isn't that much different from the call of duty community. People camps their asses off in this game, they greif, they spawn trap. And they use those gay ass overpowered weapons. Really dice? Frag rounds? How the fuck were you gonna balance that?

  • Best MP game in my opinion. Always prefered Battlefield to its competitors since 1942.

  • MW3 is better.

  • @KWelch60 and yet bf3 has the players on more frequently and a much better multiplayer. The only reason mw3 might be better is in campaign, but considering most people dont buy games for campaign, it is not a viable argument.

  • Im really impressed! how can the Xbox 360 handle this game? i mean i thought the Xbox 360 could never handle a game graphically as good or better than Killzone 2 or 3! i thought the Xbox 360 was weaker than the PS3

  • @cenasux115 You do realise the Xbox 360 and PS3 are pretty much the same don't you in terms of specs? So how exactly do you think the 360 could not handle this game? That is just complete nonsense. Yes the PS3 has slightly better graphics, but if you got the HD pack installed on the 360 it is the same thing.

  • @Brian72359 I agree with you on every point there, but I have to say, PS3 doesn't have SLIGHTLY better graphics than the xbox 360

  • I love this shooter to death! I'm sooo gald I got this over MW3

  • This game is really fun... But I found the console graphics underwhelming

  • This game FUCKING SUCKS

    I liked it at first but people AA camp, USAS fag or the game just fucking glitches up which literally happens at least 12 times a match, ranging from your gun not hitting people ( fucked up hitboxes ) to models and shit raping itself.

    I'd give this game a 2/10, if they remove all those issues it might just be a 8/10, but then again, i have no fucking clue what this game is like because every step you take you get shot int he face by a explosive USAS round.

  • @vuur150 Yeah I know, they're gonna definitely fix the USAS + Frag combination, and maybe the spawns of the AA vehicles.

  • @vuur150 i have never had any of those issues. the only time a usas fag round user is going to kill you is if hes relatively close to you, so that means either your copy is messed up or your playing like COD.

  • @vuur150 I agree with preety much everything you said. The frag rounds ruin the entire fucking game for me. And not to mention people greif and spawn trap like bitches. Its fun when your playing with the right people but most of the time your playing with retards. And its more frustrating to play then fun.

  • @vuur150 All that really goes on? Cause I was really considering buying this game :(. 

  • @Hyper vurr150 is clearly a CoD player who got Battlefield 3 thinking it's similar to CoD, which it's not. The connection is actually good, if you have at least ok internet connection. His comment show's you that he thinks he can run in the open without any consequences and survive 100 bullets like in CoD. Battlefield 3 takes teamwork and cooperation not lone wolf bullshit. It'll take time to get use to it, but I suggest you do, because the pay off is great.

    - Guy who'es played both games.

  • @ForestHero11 Please get the balls to @ my name so i can read that, i am only a fan of COD's singleplayer, i mostly play battlefield 2 or battlefield 2142, i have played a shitload of games.

    By the way; in COD you die pretty quickly, in bf3 the damage you take is slightly less/ the same.

    Seriously being ignorant there, i've only played COD multiplayer 6 times in my life in total..

  • @vuur150 I am sorry if I have offended you in any what so ever way. But you must understand, I ran out of characters to @ your user name. Next time I commentu I will @ your name. Have a nice day.

  • @HyperV I'll be honest with you, the game could be good but right now they need massive fixing to do on the balancing, it is not bad in any way possible, it's just frustrating when you feel like you can't do anything while you're in a tank and you're up against someone with a shotgun with explosive rounds.

    You should probably get it or wait for them to fix that problem, i'm not sure if they will, but i hope so.

    @ForestHero11 I don't like COD multiplayer, please shut your face, smartass

  • @vuur150 Thanks man.

  • I love playing this on PS3!

  • Consolololo

  • Well now that medal of honor will release a second installment(assuming its refined) cod wont be all that popular because moh and bf3

  • @iliketwinkie I actually enjoyed the single-player portion. It was pretty intense and cinematic.

  • This game should of been only MP, campaign wasnt that necessary, then it might of got 9.5/10, and it could fit in 1 xbox disc.

  • this game is the best xbox game. its vivid, its fun, and its badass

  • BF3 is probably the FPS with THE most MP maps! cuz each of the 9 environments have about 3 - 4 gameplay maps in 'em!

  • I think Dice could not come up with an original campaign. They just took what Treyarch did with Black Ops but made it modern times. The multiplayer is good but not amazing. I was kinda expecting the "Holy Shit" kinda feeling like when everyone played Call Of Duty 4.

  • Bf3 trolls are trolling MW3, MW3 trolls are trolling BF3. Can we all just play our own games rather than troll.

  • i believe that that is a very fair review. the multiplayer is outstanding single player is ok put it feels like they just threw it in

  • I have finally finished the game on the PS3 and I can say that this is the worst campaign I have ever seen. Cheesy, boring and repetitive. Multiplayer looks horrible in comparison to the single player, I can't believe that the beta looked better. It's even worse than Call of duty. I should have never bought this game, it sucks.

  • @roms3 You sir, are fuckin blind

  • @ThugTurko

    No mate, that's just my opinion.

  • i wish bf would make a game were it was only based on co op

  • @sonicrock1999 You failed now gfo!

  • BC2:better than any cod! BF3: even better than BC2

  • @starrevan38 besides the BC2 story is better I agree.

  • @starrevan38 no

  • a negative for a campaign? really?! campaigns are suppose to go along with a plot even crysis one and two! and cod all you can do is walk down only one corridor

  • gunna get this today, I remember when I had bf2 on pc when I was like 12. best game I ever played

  • 00.01

    

  • 0.1

  • 0.01

  • Haha even minecraft got the same rating! Skyrim beat both bf3 and mw3. Needs more dragons!

  • I will IGNore this review...

  • Not trying to troll at all, but this game is horrible. I was thinking if I should buy this or Killzone 3, and I ended up buying this (Modern warfare 3 isn't even an option because it completely sucks)

    The graphics are bad, especially at multiplayer, the single player campaign is dull and boring, controls aren't responsive at all and screen tear is terrible. It is just my opinion, but I think you shouldn't buy this game.

  • @roms3 bullshit your the biggist troll ever get over your self you fuck noob

  • @11ghostleader

    I am not a troll, and why do you use that language? Have I done anything to you? You talk like you developed the game yourself...

  • @roms3 well don't buy killzone either there very few people online

  • Cod Fan boys coming in with the dislikes!

  • @Marcushbk

    Same thing applied to whenever a new CoD game came out.

  • @Marcushbk or people who played both and didnt much like battlefield or just preffered cod

  • 3:40 There is no saluting inside a ship. Sailors don't wear their covers inside a ship, and never salute without a cover.

  • @justonefyx Well-put, shipmate.

  • and of course, russians. BEST.LINE.EVER.

  • @AllAboutTheRap they need to stop targeting russians, why not blow up america for once :<

  • @JukemDrawles89 what do you mean by exspecialy on ps3? look at Killzone 3 and Uncharted 3. Uncharted 3 has actualy just about go better graphic then this. The reason why multiplatform games dont look as good because Ps3 uses a different softwar as xbox and pc so most company are too lazy to make it seperate spftware for ps3 so they import it as it is

  • chuck norris play bf3 so yeah mw3 sucks

  • so IGN aren't a bunch of CoD fanboys. the dislikes are just coming from CoD FANBOYS

  • Battlefeild 1943 is better

  • Campaign fuckin sucks but they built this for multiplayer not campaign

  • In terms of fun, I prefer Bad Company 2. I made the mistake of thinking that BF3 would be like it, so when I got the PS3 version and didn't get to use the M24, I was quite irritated. And while I do love games that bring out the best in terms of visuals and performance when it comes to their platforms, the console version of BF3 doesn't beat games like Gears of War 3 on 360 or God of War 3 on Ps3. That being said, here's to hoping that Bad Company 3 comes out next console generation.

  • Yeah I dont get why the consoles got stiffed in the graphics department, I didnt play much of BC2 but Im noticing alot of shooters are becoming worse than their predecessors nowadays.
