    Possibly late next year, but point is it's not worth it for me now.

    Probably not...unless you have a lot of friends with a PS3 that play online. I might get a 360 for that reason.

    Will not be any new consoles out next year. Late 2013 will be the absolute earliest, and I even doubt that.

    I was thinking that too before that countdown site came out. Was that site just a hoax?

    Has to be. Sony/Microsoft will announce new consoles over a year in advance. The word will get out, and they will be forced to announce it. E3 is coming up in early June, and not a peep about new consoles. I expect an announcement to be made at E3 2012.

    Yea the few people I know with PS3s don't really play as much as me. I do want a bluray player eventually but I want to upgrade my tv first. I do have a friend that rarely uses his PS3. Maybe I'll ask to borrow it and buy a used copy of Infamous.

    That sounds about right. The new Wii is being shown at E3 this year and I would think it won't be more than a year after that before Microsoft or Sony make the next move.

    They might reveal the next xbox this year but I doubt that we see the next Playstation. Nintendo has to release a new console because they are falling behind.

  • BF3 vs. MW3 side by side pictures. God I'm going to love this Frostbite 2.0 engine. Meanwhile COD is still stuck with the same engine as COD4.

    Amazing..cant wait. Ive washed my hands of COD. Have you heard any details about BF3 multiplayer? I havent played a solo campaign shooter in a long time...I get them mainly for multiplayer. Although these screen shots make me want to play the solo campaign for BF3

    No real details on Multiplayer yet. It will be revealed at E3 in early June, along with actual multiplayer gameplay.

    I am just so psyched about this Frostbite 2.0 engine. Frostbite is a top notch engine that was created by DICE, and produces some of the best graphics I have ever seen on consoles. DICE knows how to take care of their fans, thats for sure. 3rd different engine in 3 straight Battlefield games from DICE.

    Bad Company = Frostbite 1
    Bad Company 2 = Frostbite 1.5
    Battlefield 3 = Frostbite 2.0

    DICE said that Frostbite 2 is a much bigger jump up from Frostbite 1.5 than 1.5 was from 1.0.

    Wow, that sentence doesn't sound very good. You get the picture though.

  • The best feature in Battlefield is the ability to knock down ANY building in the game.

    That means it rules out friggin' camping.

    I love this. I am an engineer, so when I see someone just sitting in a window I pull out the RPG and blast the entire wall down. He is either dead or moving at this point.

  • What is everyones favorite class? Mine comes and goes. Ive been trying a medic lately and I like it now that ive unlocked the defib pads. I play engineer a lot and like repairing the tanks. I also snipe on bigger levels (heavy metal, atacama desert, etc..i love to spot. Assault has the best guns imo..but I dont contribute as much with that class.

    No. Been playing too much MLB The Show and Little Big Planet 2. LBP2 is one of the best video games I have ever played, and I don't say that a lot.

    Need to pick up BC2 so I can get the controls down and get some practice time in before BF3 this fall.

    Yeah the analog sticks on PS3 are totally different than Xbox. Very loose sticks.

    I wouldn't say they are loose, but they have a wider range if that makes sense.

    Yeah that's true. Or maybe it seems that way because the controller is so much smaller.

    It's hard to explain but the way the Xbox analog is set up, it's harder to move with your thumbs around than it is with the 2 analogs so close together like on PS3 if that makes sense.

  • I'm not waiting on Cooter. I'm gonna jump right into action as soon as I get this headset hooked up and working. That could take a few hours.

  • Got the headset up and running. Sounds amazing, and not as many wires as I thought there would be. A little more expensive than I was looking for, but glad I got them. Updating BC2 data now and its taking forever. I'm just thinking outloud on here, never mind me.
