Console version? HA! Good one!
From the get-go, fans have been extremely worried that the PC version (aka the real version) of Battlefield 3 would be nothing more than a crappy console port, like what happened with Bad Company 2.
DICE was aware of these allegations and made sure to clear up the issue, and their answers may get console players in a bit of a tiffy.
As the first details surfaced about Battlefield 3, it was clear from what they detailed that the console versions will clearly be inferior, simply for the fact that the PC version will contain 64-player versus compared to the console versions which will only contain 24-player sessions (although the console versions will be matches as closely as possible in terms of specs to the PC version).
Try having jets with 24 people! That’s a funny thought, and I laugh as my glorious PC copy has already been preordered. PC will be the best platform for BF3, come and see…
