I love these people.

Juju has a point if what I've heard about this game is true: 'Battlefield pubs are a bunch of douchebags laying around with snipers bla'.

Compared to CoD's internet connection vs internet connection, 74U on 74U spamfests. xD

Seriously though I want to see MP, I am pretty sure that I will buy Battlefield 3. Black Ops killed CoD before this game had a chance…

Seriously, JID, the line of dialogue referencing an earthquake and a "major fault line 90 kilometres from our position" in the first video didn't make you immediately think that there will be an earthquake in the middle of this game?

I know a guy who worked on the lighting engine (Enlighten) used in BF3. It's about bloody time it started to get used in major titles. It's amazing!

Yes, but I was too distracted by the beautiful graphics.

@eagly

For serious? Well, good for him.

Shiet. They better not forget about us console players.

I hope the console version are every bit as good as the PC version.

While I'm sure they'll try their best, that simply isn't possible.

If Gears 3 is capable of having an entire map sinking while playing on it in Multiplayer, I'm sure Crysis is able to have a simple Earthquake without problems.

Well other than the fact that it's a first person shooter, and as such should be played with a mouse, the significantly higher player limit will help a lot. The graphics are certainly the icing on the cake, but there's only so much you can do with 6 year old hardware, and we're well past that point.
