Tiene carencias, desde luego, algunas de las expansiones fueron bastante malas, con mapas extremadamente grandes para tan pocos jugadores en partida, desequilibrios en ciertos mapas, y demás.

    Añadir que el modo historia es un paseo para enseñar lo que puede hacer el motor gráfico y poco más, no esperéis una obra de Shakespeare o Cerbantes.

    A pesar de los fallos que puedan existir en esta entrega, es un juego muy recomendado en su faceta multijugador.    … Expand

    "Battlefield 3" was made for the PC, but the PS3 version is still good. Due to the console's limitations, the graphics are inferior and Conquest mode is limited to only 24 players. However, most of the experience has been retained. While BF 3 is not as good as "Bad Company 2", it still delivers the classic DICE gameplay that fans love.

    10/10, easily.
    For me personally, the best BF game that has ever been made. I mean it's from 2011 and it's still good looking, even on console. PC may be even better, but I don't play on PC.
    The story was a bit meh, I mean it's in the middle east, you track down 3 nukes, you find one, one is place in Paris and the last in in NYC. A muslim betrays the US Army, I am shocked, and plans on    10/10, easily.

A muslim betrays the US Army, I am shocked, and plans on detonating the nukes in the west so it can go to war with Russia, which many people are speculating that it happened, which is where the MP of this games comes in place. Enough about the story though. Controls were a bit weird compared to other shooters, since the circle to crouch was replace with R3, which at the beginning was really weird, but once you get into it, very very smooth controls with great gameplay. Weapon designs and sounds were in another league. Call of Duty MW3 looks and sounds cheap compared to BF3. The multiplayer was also the best in the series, very balanced.    … Expand

    Battlefield 3 was the first Battlefield I played and I really enjoyed it! Its one of the best looking games on the PS3, the campaign is really good, you can tell they put a lot of work and effort into this mode. The multiplayer was also pretty good too. Overall Battlefield 3 is a really good action game.

    Excelent game. I´ve enjoyed breathtaking nonstop action campaing from start to end.
    Story could be hardly written better than it was. I liked characters, weapons and environment as well.
    I think this game deserve 9/10 without doubts.

    The game itself is good,but the console version is horrible. Disgusting 30 fps with stuttering and freezing. If you want to play this game - buy it for PC.

    Quick background on me the reviewer, I tend to like single player games that is heavy on narrative the most. I also play a lot of racing games and use to play multiplayer games in my high school days but now that it's hard for me and my friends to find a good time to link up so now I hardly play any.

Up to try any genre of games and sometimes I find something new that I didn't think I'd like. I play on every platform but prefer PlayStation.

    Played this game every day with my friends while in high school. Best game in the series so far (2022). I still go back to it to this day. I'm surprised that there is still enough people that support this game and glade we can continue to convince EA to continue multiplayer support although all the servers are now paid by players and EA does not have any public servers anymore.    … Expand

    The story is not great but it was solid enough, alongside a nice co-op mode and one of the best multiplayers ever? Just because of that last aspect I think it deserves a 9. Definitely the best BF for me.

    Battlefield 3 reinvigorates the Battlefield franchise and properly challenges Call of Duty.

    Hopefully EA reconsiders its approach to toppling Call Of Duty in the future, and allows its games to develop their own personality, rather than imitate something else.

    Despite its incredible competitive online play, we can't ignore the shortcomings of its campaign and Co-Op. [Jan 2012, p.66]

    The nine multiplayer maps seem to be designed specifically to let players come up with their own creative strategies. Compared to COD, this gives the player a real sense of freedom. There is no such thing as a perfect strategy or a trotten path. [December 2011, p.74]
