I have been a third person gamer since the 80's. I dread not to ever play any first person viewed games. I downloaded Battlefield 3 on my Xbox 360 Gold for free. I was a challenge at first, but now I have gotten used to it.

Game and case stank of cigars, which sucked. Game occasionally cuts out, but otherwise good for the price

A beautiful game to play, and easy to have fun online with friends. You will need an online pass in order to play this game, maybe cheaper to buy off of ebay. NOTE, if you want the most out of the graphics you need to have over 1GB to download the HD for the game. PLEASE NOTE there have been issues with player(s) campagins having corrupt data from a glitch within the system. To fix, a player must delete all there campaign data and clear their systems cache and re-download all data. Multiplayer content will save online, just the single player will have to be played through again if this problem ever happens. On a personal note, the campaign was not impressive and story felt "re-used". THERE IS NO co-op campaign, but there are a couple of Co-op missions to play on the multiplayer disc. There are two disc for this game on 360. (Personal opinion) I did not enjoy the co-op missions, felt like the missions were put in to keep of with other multiplayer games that have some type of variation co-op gaming. AS OF JUNE Battlefield 3: Dice has said that new multiplayer dlc"Close Quarters"will be coming. cost 1200 microsoft points. This means newer players will be paying for a new copy of battlefield, and if wanted, buying maps on the start. map packs so far were "Back to Karkand"and coming soon "Close Quarters". A total of 2400 microsoft points. New gamers online be prepared: The ranking system is not balanced so you will be thrown into the battle. As of June 4th the latest update has given weapons a new play style. Weapons are weaker such as (Stinger, Famas, esc). for a heads up for new gamers, gamers will notice the balance in game. Players that are new may feel overwhelmed, not just by how to play but at the unblanced rank system. Example- You have to teach yourself how to fly in game, this means(once the individual has learned how to fly jets/heli. higher ranks that have unlocked missiles, flares esc. will have a clear advantage over new comers. EA, Dice, cost, and the online pass: You have to pay for a used copy and buy the online pass Or buy a new copy included with the online pass. This means if the individual wishes to play the game in general or with friends and have not purchased the game before hand, the person(s) will have to buy a new copy or buy a used and the online pass. Also to get the full experience online, you must save room for map packs. The game overall is okay, if not for the Online pass, recent update, balance, dull campaign esc. I would give this game a 8/10, for now it drops to a 5.2/10. LAST NOTE: The individual will run into some money in order to stay and enjoy the full experience on 360(paying for xbox live, map packs "Back to Karkand" and "Close Quarters", Online pass if not purchased previously.Read full review
My personal opinion is as follows: Personally I mostly play the campaign of each new release than trade it in. With Battlefield 3, a new purchase is not worth the cost. Yes the campaign is good but your team AI is poor. You are assigned three AI team members. You almost always have to follow your AI team leader instead of lead. You cannot command your AI team at all. They always immediately run into battle and kill the opposition, often before you even get there. They also move directly in front of you while you are already shooting an enemy. Often times all the fun is taken by your own AI teammates well before you even get to the location of the fight. This is so frustrating that I actually tried to shoot my own men to get them out of my way or to stop them from running into battle in front of me. This does not work, as friendly fire is not acceptable. So in order to enjoy the campaign, you almost always have to run and gun, rather than flank or outsmart the enemy. If you only like run and gun, then this campaign is for you as this is done real well. Additionally, the advertisements show an open battlefield. This is not the case in the campaign. In the campaign there is very little option to choose a different rout or method. That and the campaign is short, maybe 10 hours at best. Since I did not play the on-line version, I did not even see a lot of what is shown on the game spot review. That looks good. Maybe I will have to give this game a try on line. I do believe that the on-ling combat is most likely excellentRead full review
Battle Field 3 for Xbox 360 is the Best Multi-player game I have ever played. Well worth the purchase price of $44.00 with unused online multi-player code (for a used like new game). In fact it is well worth the $59.95 full price for a new game. The Single player campaign is not as good as COD Modern Warfare 1, 2, or 3. Also the characters in BF3 spout the "F" word almost every other sentence. So I will have to admit I did not greatly enjoy the single player campaign. While it was a good single player game, for me the best part is the online multi-player features. In online multi-player you can level up very well but it's not quick, that's good as you get more game time and earned items. You can spawn on any part of the map a team-mate is at, drive tanks, jeeps, helicopters (which i can fly well, but prefer to be a door gunner, or repair the chopper in flight), and fly jets (I generally crash quickly as I have yet to master the flying of jets). I prefer the Engineer and support rolls as the engineer can repair vehicles and with upgrades has a javelin and stinger rocket. Support can upgrade with claymores, mortars, and passes out ammo. My nephews prefer to be snipers. And there are those that pass out med kits. In conclusion: BF3 is the best game I have every player online multi-player, and is worth the price for that feature alone. However, if you do not play online? While it is good, I would only rate it 2-3 stars (my 5 star rating was for the multi-player online aspect.Read full review
