Battlefield 3 officially announced

Posted by Chris Holmes at 1:33pm on August 2nd, 2010

EA has finally announced Battlefield 3. Once again, it will be developed by DICE and beta access to the game will be included in the limited edition of Medal of Honor. EA are playing their cards close to their chest, saying that you can get an invitation to the Battlefield 3 beta “within 12 months following the release of Medal of Honor”. The beta will be available on the 360, PC and PS3, so it looks like the game will be too. It has been in development at DICE for the past three years and everyone that’s seen it seems to think it’s going to be pretty special. Well, at least the PC version.

BF 1943 still has no PC release date

Posted by Chris Holmes at 12:20pm on August 2nd, 2010

EA has come out and said there’s still no inkling of a Battlefield 1943 PC release date. The game was released on the PS3 and 360 in July 2009. The ill-fated PC version was supposed to be released in September but got pushed back to early 2010. Evidently, it didn’t make that either. EA has now said that anyone who wants to cancel their pre-order for the game can get their money back with a refund.

Medal of Honor 360 beta finally starts

Posted by Chris Holmes at 10:18pm on July 21st, 2010

EA has finally started the Xbox 360 Medal of Honor beta. To access it, you need to get a code from pre-ordering with a retailer like Play or GAME. Once you have that, visit http://www.medalofhonor.com/beta, login with your EA account, put the code into the box and select which version of the beta you want. Once you select 360, you’ll be given a download code that you can chuck into the redeem code part of Xbox.com’s marketplace or on the Xbox 360 dashboard. It’s a bit complicated.

The PC and PS3 betas have been going on for quite a while now, with EA making 360 gamers sweat a bit. The 360 beta is a bit behind the others, as EA claim it’s only “Tier 1” at the moment. We’re guessing they’ll update it as time goes by.

Battlefield Heroes has its first anniversary

Posted by Chris Holmes at 12:14pm on June 28th, 2010

DICE has reminded us that Battlefield Heroes has been going on for a year now, with the free-to-play third person shooter apparently doing well enough to continue. They are giving some free bonuses to gamers, including this promo code that will give you a two-day boost to your Victory Points and XP, as well as give you more Battle Funs for your money: 49TP-ZJB7-NVTR-P8AE (you can enter it at the Battlefield Heroes store).

MoH’s early access PSN beta now live

Posted by Matthew Archer at 7:21am on June 18th, 2010

EA and Dice’s latest re-installment of the hit classic, Medal of Honor, has been on the minds of just about every Battlefield fan since it was first introduced. For those that own Battlefield Bad Company 2 and have preordered the game from retailers, you may have had some issues using the PS3 download codes. It seems there has been a solution to this problem: patience.

Dice’s highly anticipated multiplayer beta is now available on PSN. It would seem that the problem with the download codes not working was simply a result of the download not even being available on the network yet. You have to be a Battlefield: BC2 VIP and obtain a redemption code from participating retailers by pre-ordering MoH. The beta is about 616MB.
