Review by IGN

“…DICE’s adoration of and expertise with the online experience permeates every aspect of its multiplayer. Regardless of the narrative missteps or the occasional glitches, Battlefield 3 offers an unforgettable, world-class multiplayer suite so fun that it more than makes up for the package’s shor­tcomings.”

IGN RATINGS FOR BATTLEFIELD 3 (X360)
8.0 Presentation
The multiplayer’s ro­bust and the server browser a nice touch, but those who don’t play online won’t find much meat in the other modes.
9.0 Graphics
Frostbite 2 does a great job with lights and darks, but it doesn’t quite blow Battlefield: Bad Company 2 out of the water.
9.5 Sound
You’ll hear every bullet whizzing by your head, and the crash of rubble all around you.
8.5 Gameplay
Traversing the enormous world feels great, on foot or in a vehicle, but the single-player’s quicktime events are just lame.
9.5 Lasting Appeal
Multiplayer unlocks will keep you chasing the dragon for months.
