    I highly recommend them

    There has been talk of developers dropping out of the PC market for years but given the size of the market it seems unlikely to me.

    The majority of PC games sales are now via downloads anyway via Steam or Direct2Drive so the costs are lower for distributing the games. Steam has over 25 million subscribers which is roughly the same as the number of PS3 consoles so it's still a very viable market especially if you add in the people who don't use Steam.

    And it's my problem if I have no friends
    And feel I want to die

    Loved the demo, definately getting this on 360 on Friday. The only things I'd say about cheaper net prices is that if its something you just have to play on the day of release, then pay the extra few quid and get it from a shop as in recent months everything I've ordered from Play/Amazon/Zavvi etc etc has taken 3 or 4 days to arrive beyond release date.

    Shopto are apparently pretty good on posting for release date, but as my account crashed as soon as I set it up and now won't let me buy anything and their customer service has been zero, I won't use them on principle.

    I trade a lot of stuff in at Game/Gamestation - often worth a go if you have old games knocking about, Game often have deals where certain games get you £25 off, or double points etc.

    Ive had about 4 games now that have come a day BEFORE release date (Heavy rain being the last)
    My dad last year bought the 250 gig PS3 through them and even though it was free postage came the NEXT day!

    It's all about the online this time I think, but we'll see... im wanting more than the demo was giving me.

    PC version should be around £25, although I dont see why as console versions have less chance of being pirated on the internet! :mad:

    I thought the Battlefield series had always been about the online, certianly on the PC at least.

    I used to play Battlefield 1942 and Battlefield Vietnam and both of those were pretty crap for single player but superb online. One of my favourite things in any game has to be going in to battle on a scooter with Jefferson Airplane blasting out!

    Yep, that used to be really, really annoying. It was a problem with a lot of online FPS games though. Not just Battlefield.
