Isn't Battlefield renown for taking quite a while to fix there issues with this type of game, i will decide tomorrow on this game but the more i read about it from guys that have it the more put of i am.

Anyway i found this video of a guy playing Battlefield 3 and his thoughts are not very Favourable.

Mind made up i think i will pass on this game because basically i was going to buy it for the single player experience and judging by what this guy says it hasn't got one

I know Battlefield fans like Spook are going to tell me that Battlefield is all about Multiplayer but i know where my time will be spent in that respect and it wont be this.

Think i will concentrate on Uncharted 3 then MW3 then Saints row the 3rd and thats me done for this year unless i get tempted to get the Nintendo wii out and get the new Zelda game and that new Elder Scrolls game.

Elder Scrolls games take A LOT of time so I wouldn't buy it unless you are prepared to plough at least 20 hours into it, they are quite slow burners usually but are fun in the long run. I wish I had a PS3 to play Unchartered and God of War, seriously tempted to buy one, but can't stand the trophy system the achievements on Xbox Live is a MUCH better way of doing it and to me collecting them is half the fun!

Uncharted 3 is going to be mighty special and i can not wait until next Wednesday to pick this up, i know what your saying about the new elder scrolls game and your correct in thinking that this type of game requires vast amount of patience and thats something missing in my games library .

You picking up Battlefield 3 Jaxx or what ? and what is your take on the reviews so far and how the single player seems to be a tacked on experience trying to copy MW but fails bigtime.

I know Battlefield is a multiplayer game but they could have made a awesome single player experience as well with there new engine.

Suppose this sums it up for me .....

NOW GAMERS TAKE SINGLE PLAYER B3

The impression seems to be large maps where the action takes place in about 10% of the space. The other 90% is just empty and nothing happens. If you don't have transportation it's a long run, often interrupted by some sniper camping in a hedge on the other side of the world.

People still complaining about hiding behind walls or other objects but still getting shot anyway.

One of my calmer mates was nearly apoplectic last night at the hit detection. Shooting people with rockets or similar, only to find them dancing along as if nothing had happened.

My teams dedicated server did crash after a few hours too which kinda killed the numbers for the rest of the evening

I'm sure a lot of peoples problems will be sorted out over time but it appears a lot of the issues from the beta seem to remain. I'll reserve judgement until I play it myself but I get the feeling I'll prefer MW3 just as I prefer MW2 over BC2.

New PC kit arrives today so hopefully that'll be £500 well spent for another 3 or 4 years.

Yeah im in the MW camp also and thats basically the way it is but thanks for giving us your mates thoughts and impressions as it all helps to make decisions.

Yea I have it on preorder from Game mate gonna go grab it tomorrow morning and blast through it. I am not particularly bothered if the campaign is not amazing, as I am getting it for the online play with my friends there are about 7 or 8 of us getting it so it will be fun to pwn some people online

Sounds like the campaign graphics are gorgeous and lots of cut scenes with not enough gameplay so maybe I can get through that tomorrow and crack on with the online play over the weekend!

Are you getting that for the Xbox or PC?

Spectrum 128k

Who cares about trophies its about the actual game at the end of the day,and when you got quality games like God Of War 3 and Uncharted 3 it matters not.

My head says no Spook but my heart says yes.............On any other occasion i would buy it but with so much coming out then thats another story.
