I am jealous of not having a gaming PC. At the moment I am not getting it because all I have seen in PC footage and I can't afford a good pc to produce graphics like that
i can get it on ps3 and i assure you it wont look much different so sad for you if you believe that the pc version will look that different unless on a pc monitor
I am a PS3 fanboy. But I know for a fact that BF3 on PC will blow the console versions away.. Both visually and technically... It's sad that you think just a monitor will make a game like this shine...
@waterboy I am a PS3 user and I agree with Infamous1. The reason for the good looking game is because it uses a really expensive hardware. The PS3 will look good but no where near as good and the fact we haven't seen anything for a console footage is very worrying. Hopefully they release some soon or i think another BFBC2 will happen (not a great looking game)
Thank you. I thought the same thing. People here are claiming game of the year and all this from a boring tank fight. Yeah, the graphics were great, but that demo looked so boring to me.
Pretty bummed that of all the things they could show off, they chose a tank fight in the middle of nowhere. Pretty lame if you ask me. I wanted to see some urban warfare & firefights where they can really show the power of their engine by showing all the beautiful detail and destruction. Such a let down.
Completely agree. They just picked that scene due to the lighting and whatnot. The game looks stunning, but I was really excited to see some of that block to block fighting we have seen in the trailers. I hope this game turns out great for consoles as well. I am starting to worry that like everything they have shown us is on a top of the line gaming rig.
I'm sorry but to me it seems like same old same old with amazing graphics. I'll be getting it for sure though. because it'll be a fun shooter and beautiful to look at. But i don't see much in the way of gameplay innovation
There is no way the consoles versions will be anywhere near as good as that, I mean how? can the engine really look anything close to that on consoles? I have my doubts.
Well supposedly there will be demo's available tomorrow running on both the PC and PS3 (of the multiplayer map operation metro "confirmed") so we'll probably get a rough look of the graphics the consoles are capable of, ps3 at least ;)
The PS3 lacks tessellation. Lacks the ability to use high floating point HDR in real time. Lacks DX11 features. Lacks the memory for ultra high resolution textures. Lacks a modern CPU/GPU to render all those effects in real time with procedural destruction at that fidelity.
We know your the biggest Sony fanboy on this site, but get real. The console version of this game will not look anything like the PC version. These ALPHA demos are running on two+ 580GTX in SLI. Those GPU's alone not even considering the RAM and CPU of the PC are about 10-15 times the power of the entire PS3 and then some. The bandiwdth alone that PC's have over the PS3 and Xbox360 is beyond reproach.
Ask yourself why there has been no game on either console so late in this generation that even comes close to looking like BF3 WITH A FULLY INTERACTIVE ENVIRONMENT RUNNING ALL REAL TIME EFFECTS? No console game does this. Period and looks like BF3. Not Gears of War 3. Not Uncharted 2,3. Not God of War 3. Not KZ3. None of them. None of those games have the type of interaction and graphic fidelity and REAL TIME EFFECTS ALL THE TIME like this game on the PC.
Games that look fantastic on consoles are all static backgrounds with no procedural destruction or large open areas that lack real time effects and real time lighting.
The PS3 like the Xbox360 does not have the bandwidth to run this type of game the way the PC will. Dice said this themselves. Just deal with it
ignorance at its ZENITH pc is a GENERATION ahead of consoles. TECHNOLOGY DID NOT STAND STILL FOR 5 YEARS BECAUSE OF PS3 even 360 loyalists don't try to compare their shitty console to pc but you ps3 fanboys are just incredible.
Lots of cool games but they all instantly became kiddie shite after that impressive Live Demo of BF3 PC. Felt like watching Shock n Awe all over again on CNN.
David Jaffe didn't even wanna show Twisted Metal after drooling over the BF3 footage. It's OK David TM still looks awesome!
October 25th can't come quick enough. Oh and BF3 real-time footage looks better than most CGI trailers.
wow activision change your engine already. Because battlefield 3 just made it obsolete. The sad thing is, that call of duty will sell more copies than battlefield 3 because of the fanbase.
The COD fanboys are awfully quite. They claim it look this good cuz it's running on a $5000 PC. Lol, Shit they could show MW3 on that Deep Blue super computer over at IBM, shit would still look like MW2.
one word, epic!
pc ftw!!!!
CAN THIS GAME GET ANY BETTER!!!? LMFAOO wow wow....wow!
This and Skyrim= BIG GOTY contenders.
just speechless
