Battlefield 3 Pre-Orders Up More Than 700% Vs. Battlefield: Bad Company 2 in 2010. Very good news to hear. Hopefully it will be a good dogfight this year between the FPS games.

Dayummm... already? I'm curious what the end result will be. Looks like that battle with MW3 in sales will be abit closer than I thought.

Which indicates 700% increase in patches is my guess...

The game does look fantastic. I have been following up on it with gameplay video previews of it for the PC. I hope to try it out when it is released.

Lot's of people crossing over from BO to Battlefield 3.

I just hope these COD gamers know this is a teamwork game, I hate it how I get shot with 4 medics next to me yet nobody revives me, or fixes me tank, or gives me ammo, or just sits on a ridge with a sniper the entire game, or ... /rant

dont think you can say itll be outselling cod just yet, 700% is pretty vague. cant even find where the ea guy said that ??? 700% more what ??? preorders at this time, overall preorders??? plus if bc2 got 100 preorders then 700% up would only mean bc3 has only got 700theSteeeeels

Also if you check the source of that post you will see it directs you to a page with Financial Reports and high lights of EA.

Exactly, just take a look at CoD.

700% is quite a substantial amount. I really hope they make some major profit. Dice seems to be willing to take gaming to the next level with destructible environments and all that, I can always appreciate certain innovation/originality :p
