Anyone looking forward to this? I really like BC2, but haven't been playing it long.

Call of Duty will go head-to-head with Battlefield 3 in 2011.

The third game in the series, which will be shown to press during the Game Developers Conference in San Francisco next month, is set for release this coming fall, Electronic Arts confirmed.

The publisher revealed the first teaser trailer for the game on its official website tonight. The trailer, which contains no actual gameplay, displays quick cuts of helicopters, ground troops, tanks and fighter jets.

Additional details courtesy of the official Battlefield Blog confirm a full single-player and co-op campaign, jets, prone, and 64-player multiplayer for the PC version. The Frostbite 2 engine will power the game and a Limited Edition will be revealed around GDC.

Developer DICE confirmed earlier this morning it was canceling the release of Battlefield 1943 and the Battlefield: Bad Company 2 Onslaught pack for PC.

*****Anyone else who wants added PM me******

This should be interesting. If I remember correctly the major developers behind MW2 escaped to EA. I wonder how many of their fingerprints will be on this game...

Not much of it. The IW team-members that left for EA formed Respawn Entertainment, but they are still caught up in legal battles with Activision.

Oh. Poo.

Should be a good one. IMO Battlefield is a lot better than the MW series.

There are certain things I like about both series. I haven't taken the Black Ops plunge in COD and I'm not sure I will.

The key advantages to Battlefiled to me is the huge maps, squads, vehicles (I know WOW had tanks), and the destruction features.

This.

Aren't they going head to head with MW3 for that release date?

Who's making WM3?

I loved BF2142 on PC before the cheaters came..

I liked MW2 because of the playstyles you could choose from before the cheaters came..

Black Ops I hated from the start.. Just seems too easy.. Though DOA is fun..

Thing back, I like the previous PC battlefields before 2142, have only played the BF series on PC..

Personally I want BF to do a GIJoe version..

2142 was amazing. That is all.

The original, BF1942, was the best in the series, IMHO - that game was unbelievable...

Oh man, I had some really fun times in that game. Mainly from plane camping.

Will agree that BF is a better all around FPS than any CoD game developed by either Infinity Ward or Treyarch. I think BF2 was the best BF game to date however vs. 1942 or 2142. Every FPS that comes out tries to live up to the expectations that BF2 provided. Where BF2 screwed the pooch is the 1.20 patch that took away being able to jump squads while dead. That pissed a lot of people off because nobody ever complained about it and everyone liked being able to do it.

2142 had some nice things about it. The Speeder for Northern Strike was simply the most fun vehicle I have ever played with in a game. Wire guided missles, automatic grenade launcher and when driving you have side mounted coaxial weapons. Still think I'm #1 in the U.S. for it after all these years, #5 in the world.

Have quit playing CoDBO and have called off buying any more CoD titles in the furture. CoD games to me are just mindless run and gun. No real team play with them.

Lately been playing BFPlay4Free closed beta. It's not bad for a free game.

As much as I hate to admit it being a PS3 fan, the squad feature is made that much better on XBL with the party feature. I'm not sure if you can do that on the PS3 version, but there isn't much more annoying than listening to everyone in the game talking.
