It's not gamefly it's EA that is doing that to you. NCAA is the same as well, but we all buy it new so no one ever complains.
yea i know its not gameflys fault but since i got it from gamefly I cant go online unless i want to pay EAs stupid charge. Also Uncharted 3 is also charging $10 to play online.

Not worth it for Uncharted whatsoever...

Should have given it more of a chance Trendon. I was with you for the first few hours I had the game. Just took time to transition.

Oh, I did. And my opinion of it went from confusion to dislike to do not want. The game is not for me. This is more mindless than Halo and, in my opinion, a gigantic step back from the glory of Modern Warfare 2. If I did not see Battlefield, I bet I'd like it a little more. I've resisted Resistance, Counterstrike, past Battlefields, and Killzone because Modern Warfare was always better. This one is worse than them all. Maybe next year.

The maps cook me. Karachi, Overgrown, Terminal, Skid Row, Crash, Highrise. World at War had the greatest maps of all aside from goddamn Dome. Man, are there any memorable maps in this one? The one with the trains is kinda cool. That was it.

I agree on the maps. There is little variety. Not one map jumps out at me and they all seem to play the exact same way. I know it's still early but usually "great" maps jump out at you immediately.

Battlefield will always be the better game in my opinion.

However, Call of Duty is much better suited for the console than Battlefield. I have a feeling all the CoD guys on here would, most likely, change their minds if they played BF3 on a PC. The game was developed for PC and ported to console, but the graphics and immersion the PC brings (not to mention mouse and keyboard) is top notch.

And the sound in BF3 is absolutely incredible :o

It's all about the DLC's anymore. I mean just look at Black Ops: 4 dlc's at $15 a pop. That's an extra $60 for those that cant do math, just to get better/more maps. Oh well.

Never been a fan of keyboard and mouse games, especially with all the aim bots and such. Give me a controller.

I won't play PC games for that reason, too. I struggled through Bioshock and Fallout. Although, you can get an adapter that will let you use your Xbox/PS3 controller on your PC

That isn't to mention that TV's are much bigger, often the same quality as a computer monitor, and in a more comfortable spot of your house. Of course, you could use a TV-out and a wireless controller port but it still seems like a lot of work.

I think MW3 plays better with a controller than BF3 does, but I can't imagine ever preferring a controller over a mouse and keyboard for an FPS.

That's because you are strange.

The controls for BF3 don't feel bad at all. Just imagine re-mapped COD controls. Only thing that feels weird is hitting the select button when spotting.

Why would you not want the precise control you get with a mouse and keyboard?
