I tried to pre-order it off D2D for $45 in part of the CAG discount but sadly they do not accept Paypal...

I'm not pre-ordering this, but I do hope I get it for Christmas. I've got my own money already laid down on Halo CE Anniversary, MW3, and Elder Scrolls V. The wife won't let me pre-order anything else.

I'm not saying this in a fanboy way at all but can anyone tell me where I can find the numbers for MW3?

We wont get any official numbers untill the games have launched and the end of that month. This is just EA early posting numbers to put fear into Activision.

vgchartz is not based on factual information so no you can not find numbers there.

I'm not sure gimping SWTOR's markerting is too good of an idea. While everyoen who plays MMOs knows about it, you might be able to get in people who haven't played an MMO since say SWG.

Well I still have yet to preorder it, but I'm going to preorder it so let me fix the headline.

"Battlefield 3 preorders over 1.25 million +1 already, beating Bad Company 2"

Numbers could be significantly higher if pre-orders where available from Steam.

Indeed. It's just EA shooting themselves on the foot trying to have their cake and eat it too. With non-Steam exclusivity the only thing they're doing is ensuring MW will beat them in sales PC-wise. And since BF3's main platform is the PC, it makes the decision all the more baffling.

I plan to pre order SWTOR, but I'm still deciding on Battlefield 3. Yes I know that sounds odd but Origin totally messed up my BF3 plans. If SWTOR requires the Origin client to run as well I'll probably just forget about pre ordering that as well.

You wont buy a game cause you think it cant beat another game in sales?

I preordered this MONTHS ago, I can not wait to play this. Hell I even bought my brother a copy of BFBC on the PS3 so that he will buy BF3 for that system since he games mostly on the 360 and I got rid of mine.

Not really. Unlike you, I'm more a fan for the games, and I'll play anything regardless of what company's game device it's available on.

I'm still trying to decide whether to get this or not. The PC version is out of the question for me as I'm sure mine wouldn't be able to run it that well and I don't have the funds to invest in upgrading. Is anyone else here planning on getting this for the consoles? Would it still be a worthy purchase? I mean I know it's going to be a lesser experience than the pc version but honestly I have no issues with a 24 player count (That's about the highest I have played online anyway) and not super ultra good graphics as long as it's still a fun experience.Help me out here internet hive mind!

@ProfessorBonkle Bad Company 2 still looks pretty good on console and that was the last game, so I presume this will still be a pretty good improvement on that, maybe not PC quality, but I think the gameplay and destruction and Rush mode is more than enough reason to pick this up.

If Bad Compnay 2 is so popular still, THEN WHY HAVENT DICE FIXED IT YET? There are still so many bugs in that game it drives me crazy. Most of the time they cant even get which team won the round correct, and dont even get me started on hit detection!

I'm pretty positive DICE hires their network engineers off of craigslist.

c'mon, stop fronting.. There's a LOT of Hate for MW3 from BF3 fanboys.. http://www.joystiq.com/2011/09/07/activision-wins-ruling-regains-control-of-modernwarfare3-com/

To sit on a name and spew Pro BF3 propaganda?? That's UP there in Hate!

Truth be told, that right there stopped me from pre-ordering BF3. It's bad enough to sit on the name, but to direct you to BF3 stuff?? FAIL.

I'll wait till it drops in price, which should be sooner than later to compete with MW3.. In fact, I'm getting that MW3 360 as well as the Hardened Ed. -Just like I did with MW2..

Oh, for the record, BFBC2 wasn't bad until seeing whole teams of snipers or medics.. But the sound effects Kill MW...
