Why Battlefield 3′s PC Version Is More Than Just A Game

While I think Skyrim is contributing its fair share to this guesstimate, he does have a point. There’s an excitement in the air for Battlefield 3 from PC gamers that hasn’t been seen for years, an almost unanimous feeling that, yes, a game is coming unlike any other we have seen before, and we need new gear for our PCs to get the most out of it.

Add up hundreds of thousands of PC gamers across the world spending anywhere between $US150-$1000 on everything from new graphics cards to an all-new system and, yeah, you can see where the “billion dollar” estimate comes from.

Let’s just hope after all that money spent on making it look good, what we’re actually playing is worth all that cash!
