Battlefield 3: Better on PC...
Ok, now that I've got your attention... Battlefield 3 is an improvement over Battlefield 2. Battlefield 2 was undoubtedly one of the best PC games of its era. I reckon that it still might be a favorite game to many players. You could play against skilled opponents, without ever going online with the game. There were many diverse maps and intriguing mods.
Now, you're probably wondering why it isn't as good on console, as it is on PC; or even why it's not perfect. The thing is, that Battlefield 3 will only run at 30 frames per second on any console, whilst achieving 60 on the PC. This may not be that big of a deal, but it's definitely something that will set it back a little.
Personally, I will be extremely happy if it is just a little more smoother and polished than Battlefield: Bad Company 2. No game has achieved perfection, so don't let this deter you from buying it. The least you could do is try it and see if you like it. :y:
I don't know if you've seen this, but this is the PS3 gameplay. Go ahead, jizz.

It doesn't cost all that much to make a decent gaming computer. For around $500 (Something like £30
I made a computer that can run Crysis 2, Black Ops, Portal 2, and Borderlands at max settings. Also, PC gamers tend to be more loyal (aside from pirates) and play longer. Companies also don't need to go through Sony and Microsoft to do what they want with their games if they release them for computer.
But in terms of FPS, the human eye can only see at like 33.7 FPS or something like that, so there's only a small noticeable difference between 30 and 60.

i HIGHLY doubt people can only see 33 fps..the new mw3 will run at 60+..if we cant see at that frame rate..then why would they make a game that goes that high and stays there. DERPPPPPPPP. and pc gamers tend to be more loyal? are these all personal opinions? or something backed up by a study or research...last i knew...consoles take the cake, and have more loyalty when it comes to games. if i like the game, i stick with it..like metal gear solid 4..i played that game for nearly 3 years...3 years on one game.........cant be much more loyal than that...

PC will always be better. No mater what technology you put in the console PC's can't be beaten. I can start to imagine this on my PC. 1920 x 1080, the perfect detail while the texture and other graphics options are on maximum. Console players really miss out on something.

Thats a load of BS. I can easily tell the difference between 30, 60, and 120 fps.

Did some research on both subjects, the first one I was misinformed by my teacher. It's apparently a common misconception. As for PC gamers being more loyal, I could have sworn I saw something written on it, but a Google search returned nothing, so I must have been mistaken yet again.
But still, computer gaming isn't all that expensive. In fact, most games are cheaper on the PC than on consoles (Portal 2 was 49.99 on release, Oblivion GOTY is $10 cheaper on PC, Borderlands GOTY is $5 cheaper on PC [prices from Gamestop]). It doesn't hold true for every game (notably CoD games tend to be the same price on all platforms), but there are quite a few games that are cheaper for PC than they are on consoles.
Also, Borderlands runs smoother for me on PC than it did on PS3 and 360. It loads faster and has less visual lag. I haven't really been able to compare games other than Borderlands because I don't usually buy games I have on other consoles already.
