    OMG! This will knock out the socks of MW3!

  • Sodding_Gamer #2 7 months ago

    Have watched this on youtube about 10 times now. Incredible trailer. And Eurogamer you thought the exact same as me! Soon as I saw him I was like "hey it's ginger pierce from 24!!" He was a right legend. Roll on Friday

    Negged. Really?! Come on!

    @sodding gameer. Sorry that was me by accident, my computer just had a fit and i must have accidently pressed - . here have a plus.

    I don't know, i glad the MP is awesome, the campaign trailer is a bit dissapointlingly .. well uninspired. Its brave fighting that other shooter at its own game. Wanted something a bit more distinct and original. Something Akin to Generation Kill. I think Dice had a great chance to do something a bit different. Shooters don't always have to be whack a mole a terrorist. Looks fun and what not, but not what i really wanted. each to there own.

  • ruisranne #5 7 months ago

    If this campaign lasts only 5 hours, I'm going to shoot that cop.

  • Iain815 #6 7 months ago

    Glenn Morshower is the go-to guy if your production has a high ranking officer in it.

  • SaintDaveUK #7 7 months ago

    Wow. COD trailer makers need to up their game (no pun intended).

  • HeNiCiDe1988 #8 7 months ago

    loool is it not hilarious that you have a MW3 trailer for a BF3 video ahaha:p in the tv spots the voice over is ray winstone isnt it? Some lovely shots in this trailer maybe be worth playing.

    "Is that a new bloke doing (a bad job of) the voice of Captain Price in the MW3 trailer? Sounds crappy anyway."

    He sounds far too similiar to Hector from the Hector iOS telltale games.

    That guy was a cunt and actually sounded like one too.

  • curryking3 #10 7 months ago

    I missed the story part of that trailer, but those graphics... O.O

  • geeza2020 #11 7 months ago

    @curryking3 - Its 100% PC graphics

    @geeza2202
    Of course it is. You'd be mad to expect 5 year old consoles to do that.

  • GrizzleBoy #13 7 months ago

    lol @ how EG has had almost nothing but BF3 ads (both video and background) up for the past 3-4 months, but decides to start running MW3 ads days before the BF3 launch.

  • Lunatic4ever #14 7 months ago

    This looks really good,no doubt. Singleplayer seems to be very interesting and the set pieces look amazing as well.
    Who woulda thought that Battlefield could pull that off?

  • geeza2020 #15 7 months ago

    @SaintDave - I just thought it needed to be pointed out, I think some people may be expecting their consoles to be pumping out these kind of graphics as most of the trailers (but not all) that have been released have been running on PC, and some people may be confused :)

  • SaintDaveUK #16 7 months ago

    Well, judging from what I have seen, the console graphics are still extremely good.

  • zegerman1942 #17 7 months ago

    Still not sure about the single player. DICE did a decent job on BC2 but they are traditionally not focused on SP in their BF series. It looks interesting for sure though. But in the end, who cares, 700+ hours of multiplayer coming up, and that's plenty of bang for my buck!
    Loving the new take on the soundtrack. to me the BF soundtrack will always have a special part!

  • airwalker2211 #18 7 months ago

    the voice for MWÂ3 is i think, still done by a guy called Billy Murry, who used to be in the Bill, and Eastenders. shame no Craig fairbrass as ghost anymore "bootifull"

  • metallicol #19 7 months ago

    yeah, MW3 guy is Billy Murry http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N3H9msKYdGU

  • abot #20 7 months ago

    How ironic that a "skin" advert for MW3 is on the page showing the launch trailer for BF3.

  • abot #21 7 months ago

    "lol @ how EG has had almost nothing but BF3 ads (both video and background) up for the past 3-4 months, but decides to start running MW3 ads days before the BF3 launch."


    Thats because Activision is paying EG to remove any presense of BF3 from their site.

  • hammerstein07 #22 7 months ago

    Every trailer makes me want to play this more and more. They've nailed dramatic trailers!

  • arcam #23 7 months ago

    Yes, but EA have been paying EG to ignore Activision's requests to remove BF3 from the site. And then accepting money from Activision to ignore EA's request to ignore Activision's request to remove BF3 ads from the site. It's actually a smart idea, because now EG can earn infinite revenue from these two companies by simply adding and then removing BF3 ads each day.

    Holy shit, now that impressed me. Colour me hyped.

  • TagemandBagem #25 7 months ago

    Looks like Mitt Romney @ 1:35

  • Sodding_Gamer #26 7 months ago

    By the way guys this looks awful compared to the 1080p official youtube video....

  • Samirnasirov #27 7 months ago

    Holy Shit!

  • GitSomE_UK #28 7 months ago

    Fuck me... considering Single Player is a bonus in the BF series this looks fucking great!!!

  • mukki #29 7 months ago

    oh man...
    if the console versions looked this good I would be lining up already!
    Since they are obviously using high end PC to produce these it sometimes feels like that are using rendered sequences (since I doubt the game will look like this on ps3/360) to sell the game to console players.
    Still this pro-ordered, and I am hoping it will be great!

  • andy10 #30 7 months ago

    Nice to hear the Battlefield theme tune in its entirety again. I now think of this as the 'Terminator 2' mix.

    @joelstinton
    here have a minus because you deserve it!

  • bcxixa10 #33 7 months ago

    WHAT THE F**** ? MEn did you see that city scene ? I FUCKING WANT THIS GAME!

  • makeamazing #34 7 months ago

    Now i have never owned a BF game, and don't particularly like MW (but will be getting it as i like to get lots of games from different genres)... but this looks amazing from the trailers, and MW3 so far looks well pretty poor... a turnaround that i didn't expect... it's going to be interesting if they can keep that up till release of both games.

  • dadrester #35 7 months ago

    Loved BF2 and BFBC2, and was really looking forward to this for multiplayer until I saw that trailer. I was planning on getting BF3 for the multiplayer and MW3 for mindless popcorn cheese and big 'splosions. Looks like I may not need to get MW3 after all. Trailer makes it look suitably Hollywood action flick...y

    [edit]... also... times square car chase?! WTF?

  • Iron_Napa_76 #37 7 months ago

    OMG This is one of the most AMAZING Trailers I have ever seen.

    But dont watch the one on eurogamer, watch the one on Youtube:

    Make sure you select 780p or 1080p and Pump up the volume it is AWESOME.


    The Battlefield Advertising Experts have played a very clever game over the last few months.

    They have kepy very quiet about the Single Player Campaign, they have also released a very suspect BETA, which threw every single one of us off the cent, in one way or another.

    THEN they release a Video like this, a week before Release, excellent from the Advertising Experts.

    COD, your days are numbered.

    This is not a Trial, You are Guilty, I know how your F@#ing Story Ends.


    AWESOME, AWESOME, AWESOME, AWESOME
