Leaked 360 Battlefield 3 Hints At Game Length

[drop2]“Best FPS this GEN by far” says this guy, who’s happy enough admitting that he’s played through a – tut tut – pirated version of Battlefield 3.

So, whilst the rest the world is still waiting for the game – and that includes those of us that actually want to review it – people have already finished it.  Lovely.

“The environments, the gameplay, the graphics and especially the sound are simply amazing,” he says. “You truly feel like you’re in a warzone unlike the arcadey feel of COD. ”

Obviously, we can’t vouch for this chap’s enthusiasm, but it’s the game’s length that stands out – “6 – 7 hours” -which might be alright if it’s totally AAA quality and super shiny all the way through.  “You don’t understand the motives behind the main villain’s actions, but that doesn’t stop you from enjoying the events in the game,” continues the forum post.

“Its also unlike your typical US-made shooter in which the US military is invincible. You get to see your comrades get killed and their tanks/airplanes destroyed, like in a real war. I guess you have to be a Swedish dev to be able to pull that off.”

Quite.

Reviews are expected tomorrow, although hopefully not ones subject to the same sort of questionnaire as some of the Norwegian sites were.  We aren’t expecting code before release, but we’ll be bombing through that campaign as quickly as we can do.

  1. Brilliant looking game, and can’t wait for it. It doesn’t have to be pirated for people to have already go through the SP. Some guys on YouTube got their hands on an early copy. Retailers are giving certain people early copies.

  2. I actually like shorter, action packed SP’s for FPS’s. Much more enjoyable, than something that has been longed out.

  3. good review could force through an early purchase for me. was leavin til next year
