Battlefield 3

Ok, so can someone please clarify for the last time? What do Gamestop pre-orders get that others don't? All pre-orders (or probably first run purchases, ie Limited Edition, for that matter) get the Karkand map, right? What does Gamestop get again?

Gamestop Battlefield 3 pre-order
GameStop’s pre-order includes the Physical Warfare pack, in addition to the Back To Karkand DLC. If you are part of their PowerUp Rewards, you’ll get a free Prima Battlefield 3 strategy guide as well.

Amazon Battlefield 3 pre-order
If you pre-order on Amazon, you’ll receive an exclusive set of dog tags for multiplayer. On top of that, the pre-order includes the Back To Karkand expansion pack.

Best Buy Battlefield 3 pre-order
Best Buy offers the same Limited Edition version with Back To Karkand, plus a set of new multiplayer skins — the SPECACT Kit. You’ll receive a code to unlock 8 new multiplayer skins when the game is released.

Ok, so just as I thought, everyone gets Back to Karkand. The free strategy guide is pretty friggin' cool though.

So, stay with Best Buy, and be one step closer to my $100 gift card, or get the free guide from Gamestop. Hmm.

There's gonna be maps and YouTube vids for days... for FREE online.

Get that Best Buy card.

Where do you see that you get a free guide from GameStop?

But is it the real strategy guide, that normally costs like $15-20 or some bullshit pocket guide that they sometimes give with games.

You could probably find that online for free too if you look hard enough.

Not condoning it... just sayin'.

A playable PS3 beta build is being displayed at GAMEfest in the UK. So we should expect to start seeing some impressions rolling in soon.

:ionno:

Looks pretty fucking great to me.

[Twigg4075]

So this game is about a month away and still no fucking beta?

Just waiting on Sony and Microsoft to certify it at this point.

I know Alpha =/= Beta but at least they had people playing a version of this game that weren't part of the immediate developer's team.

Dunno about if they're getting servers ready/parts-ing out DLC/working out bugs.

That last one might be iffy as it's getting down to crunch time.
