Battlefield 3 Beta (XBOX)
« on: 28 September 2011, 16:49 »
Anyone else got it / fancy a game?

Its pretty good so far, takes some getting used to as its not COD but once you get the swing of things its pretty good. So much more team based than COD.

I often wonder why people never expect sarcastic comments from me - they're the only reason I speak...

Really looking forward to the full release now, pretty good stuff. One map is getting a bit repetitive though now.

Yeah, still Metro.

Dare I say it but all these videos that I've seen (from a PC) have left me a bit disappointed with the XBOX graphics, I was expecting a bit more. I assume the graphics in this BETA will be the same as the final release as it's only around the corner?

Have you seen this side by side comparison?

I'd imagine you're going to be stuck with what you've got the xbox and PS3 are both well behind the PC and that's meant to be the lead platform.

I played the game in the alpha and on the PC it looks as good as the promotional videos.
