I loved Battlefield 2 to death. Also I am a PC gamer at heart, but Battlefield 3 would kill my PC. On the console side of things, the Battlefield creators want to perfect it on console. They specifically want to take Call of Duty down. Don't get me wrong, I love Call of Duty. Battlefield is for a totally different crowd than Call of Duty. Battlefield isn't fast paced enough to take over Call of Duty. Not to mention on consoles Battlefield runs at 30 fps and that kills the experience for many. I don't think Battlefield 3 will steal the thrown from Call of Duty but it sure will be a great game. I'm personally excited for it.
