Holy crap, I almost forgot about that! I need to start downloading this the second I get home.

Hey guess what? Battlefield 3's Beta is insanely filled with glitches that still haven't been fixed from the Closed Beta! Imagine that, and to think that the graphics are suppose to blow my mind and I'm suppose to be jaw-dropped on the floor in awe and amazement over this game that will make a billion in revenue. Well I'm just not! Resistance 3 is way more fun than this online. It's not bad at all, and it's got potential, but the graphics are nowhere near Uncharted 2 and it's flat-out bugged to hell and back!

Oh well, I'm sure I'm in the minority, but I ****** sick and tired of hearing about nothing but Battlefield 3 vs Modern Warfare 3. Just release the dang games and hopefully our news sites will go back to normal; instead of all the: Which game has better graphics? What system Battlefield 3 looks better on? Why to buy Battlefield 3 for the Xbox 360? The reason that Modern Warfare will dominate the Christmas Holidays? Why Modern Warfare 3 on the PS3 will put the Microsoft out of business, Battlefield 3 graphics comparisons, Modern Warfare 3 graphics comparisons, Why the perk in Modern Warfare 3 will put Infinity Ward out of business, Modern Warfare 3 will suck and we've got proof, Why Modern Warfare 3 will rock you socks off, and on, and on, and on to Infinity until it will all but drive you to a Ward (yes, pun intended and it's a dang good one at that!) ... I just don't care anymore!

Yeah, the graphics suck and there are glitches everywhere. It's frustrating. Still, I found it to be pretty fun. I'll probably play more tomorrow then wait for it to get better.

I only found glitches once, in the open field area place, I kept falling through the floor. Other than that I had a somewhat fun time playing it, even if those shooters aint my thing.

I've seen random people popping out of nowhere. I've gotten stuck in the open field several times. I've been killed by a dead guy. Twice. I've fallen through the floor several times after dying. Oh, I've been sniped by a guy who found his way above the sky.

I watched every dead person on the map start sliding across the map like the whole thing was ice and on a hill. It was actually kind of funny as I was snipping and all of a sudden a dead body starting sliding by, and when I zoomed out I saw about 5-6 other doing the same thing. I've been shot multiple time by dead people. I fell through the floor on multiple occasions and my gun wouldn't reload a few times. I lagged out and I also froze up too when I tried to join up with a friend. My gun would blink into and from existence when I was running at one point. Also, when I was sniping my character would stand up and down without me touching any buttons. Severe graphical glitches allover the screen, especially outside the main play area. Heck there's a rotating radar in one map, and even though I had a clear shot with my Sniper Rifle, my bullet was hitting the invisible wall of the rotating radar. I could go on too. _{All of this was in less than an hour of gameplay too!}

I've actually gotten quite an eye for this kind of stuff since I've been reviewing games and this is way too many issues for this game to be so close to launch. But, there obviously going to launch it broken and patch it up later. It's kinda like buying a car without brakes, but the manufacturer saying: "Oh, well we'll put them in for you in a few weeks for you at no cost!" It's ridiculous and unless a miracle happens between now and a month away, this game will likely be reviewed much lower than what many are expecting.

I just picked up HoD so add me if you still want to play sometime.

@Slapshot maybe we could get a few NL games together.

Sure thing. I might be away most of this weekend, but any weeknights I can get a match or two in.

So, in discussing The ICO and The Shadow of the Colossus Collection I wrote a statement that I've got to share:

Like the paintings of Picasso and Machiavelli, these games truly are masterpieces of art that have withstood the test of time; aging to perfection like a fine bottle of Cabernet.

I can't recommend this collection enough!

Nice. I ordered it today, so hopefully I get it soon. Looks like a couple of games I'll like, and well overdue playing them.

So Chrono Trigger is coming this tuesday... Now where's mah FFV?

I need to pick up the ICO & SoC collection, it's been on my wishlist for a while.

I went ahead and got this day one, i like the 2D castlevania series alot so for me this is a recommendation but it is a multiplayer focused game. Ive beat a few levels single player though, putting alot of time into each characters. It should be a flaw because its not the norm for the series(with good reason) but all in all i find this game addictive and fun.

BattleField 3 is disgusting. Sure the graphics are really nice, the gameplay plays fairly smooth (running, aiming, planting the bomb, switching to secondary, throwing grenades, vaulting, sniping, etc.), and the sound effects are stellar. But the lag and glitches are overwhelming! My second life, no joke, my entire screen went blue you know when you die? Yeah but I just spawned and the blueness never went away until I died, respawned, and it was like nothing ever happened.

Next, the enemy player who killed me went prone right through the ground in real time. That and getting caught on stuff really irritates me. Lag _{for me} was present. Don't know how as I have fairly good internet. OH! And I better not forget how small everything appeared. The classes, statistics, enemies in general, etcetera. Especially in a dark room/map. This game is very dark. And I dislike it.

Yeah, what was up with that? I could barely see anything. I hope they give you the option to change the size of stuff, I could find it when I looked. (cuz I could barely see anything)

It's called a BETA for a reason.

@Aviator True, but this is the Open Beta, which is used to load up the servers. These type of glitches should not be found in this abundance at this stage of the beta, which is why the complaints and frustrations of Battlefield fans around the world are duly justifiable.

These issues I've been having (and others I presume), shouldn't exist. Unless Dice made BF3 and never tested it. _{Then I understand} Plus it's coming out in what? Less than a month? Have fun fixing these issues in such a short time frame.

And it's uncomfortable for new comers like me. My friend said something about using an HDTV makes everything better. I'm not shoveling out a few hundred dollars for one game...

Man and I thought the I thought the Uncharted 3 beta was buggy. But anyway it's getting annoying having to avoid getting trapped under the map, but I still find it pretty fun.

Yay, another Castlevania player! Add me:

PSN: Popyman51

You, me, and kevohki need to team up sometime soon!

Resistance 3's multiplayer is so much fun!
