Not too long ago, Battlefield 3 had been unveiled an announced by EA via Game Informer magazine, but today will be the first time we see gameplay. From what I've seen, this may have topped Crysis 2 in terms of graphics. In my click of friends, we'd like to say that "you need a computer made by God" to play this and in fact may be what you think after seeing the quick teaser trailer.
With the first look at the gameplay, the trailer also informs that pre-ordering the game automatically gets you the Limited Edition version and gets you the "Back to Karkand" expansion pack. As far as details what this expansion will include is that it comes with 4 maps that were in Battlefield 2, completely reconstructed with the DICE's Frostbite 2 engine.
I reccomend you go out and buy a new PC...now.
Battlefield 3 will also be released on Xbox 360 and Playstation 3
