As a complete package Battlefield 3 absolutely delivers and if you don't have some angry agenda against Origin it's a must-play. The PC version in particular ushers in a new era of graphical magnificence and the disparity between the consoles begs Sony and Microsoft to up the ante. Shooters don't come much better than this and it's a great way to kick off this year's holiday game rush.
This PC version is without question the Battlefield DICE wanted to do. It is the ultimate and recommended version of Battlefield 3, superior to the console versions. Although the campaign mode and the cooperative missions have much to improve, its competitive multiplayer is overwhelming and will provide hours of fun for months and even years.

Battlefield 3 is the best Battlefield game so far. Graphics are still insane in 2023 and bf3 is still playable after 10 years.

This game has one of the best single-player fps campaigns ever made. Every single mission is so fun and cinematic. My favourite has to be "Going Hunting" since it is so fun and I love how the music is implemented. The only mission I didn't like was "Operation Guillotine" since it was just standard boots on the ground but i understand why since it is integral to the game's story. Pls give the game a try. It is amazing.

This is war. This is what we FPS fans have longed for for years.
An extremely beautiful looking game that takes advantage of the hardware in every way possible, resulting in an experience that's so huge and fulfilling that it will keep you satisfied for years to come, especially with all the DLC map packs int he pipelines.
If solo play is your primary motivator, then it's hard to recommend Battlefield 3 as anything more than an audio-visual treat. The times where Battlefield 3 does its damnedest to go toe-to-toe with Call of Duty are the times it stumbles the hardest. But when DICE is doing what it's always done best, Battlefield 3 is a uniquely mesmerizing multiplayer game with a seemingly endless number of ways to feel like a success. It's not revolutionary, but it's the best Battlefield game, and that's saying a lot.
It's hard to tell how it'll pan out over the years, but right now, this is a great game burdened with new, confused players, technical problems, and a lack of information as to how to be effective on the field. It's a Battlefield game alright, but it's going to need some time and work before it becomes a worthy time sink.
I enjoyed my time with Battlefield 3's multiplayer, and I wish my thoughts about the game could end there. Unfortunately it also tried to force a totally unnecessary single-player game on me, and the browser interface looks like it came straight out of the 90s.
What a bummer Dice could not capture the magnificence of Battlefield ever again after 3, 4 and 1 because this series was the ULTIMATE online war shooter experience of all time.
Battlefield 3 had such incredible maps and gameplay and destruction and team play and I miss everything about it.
I wish they would just remake BF3 so we could experience it all over again online, but sadly this series is all but dead. RIP, Dice. You gave me such epic warfare memories; something CoD could never do.
