Mw3 just got put to shame. Its gonna be tough to beat that.

That looks extremely amazing, MW3 will have nothing against it.

Shame it won't be anything like that on the console versions. In my eyes, you can't compare the gameplay that much but the effort put into BF3 is just so much more then in MW3, and the graphics are wow. I mean, I enjoyed MW2s environment and I'm sure MW3s will be good but, this easily has both. I only hope that there's moments in the SP that make you feel hopelessly lost which I felt several times in MW2, but that is a different topic. Also, jets :D

I wouldn't go as far as "it wont be anything like that" - the graphical limitations between PC and consoles are steep but they wont be much different, consoles wont be refined and will probably have lower resolution textures but other than that it wont look much different, the difference between BC2 on PC and consoles wasn't exactly a huge gap, the main limitation consoles have is that the multiplayer wont be as epic due to the restricted player cap.

I'm more on about the player count and how you won't see that much epicness in a short space most likely, not the graphics.

Yea apparently the maps are a lot larger than BC2 which means there will be far too much empty space even in full games on consoles, it's a shame because consoles can easily handle 64 players but I guess it's just trying to handle that as well as the chaos that could potentially ensue during the games, ah well it's going to be amazing no matter what you buy it on, it's probably a bad time to be Call of Duty right now.

Maybe they'll be scaled down for console version? Like the same maps, just for console a bit smaller to balance the fact you can only have like 24 people in a game at once.
I think it looks amazing, the only thing they need to improve in my eyes is the controls, BC2 felt 'sticky', and took some getting used too whereas COD is fluid from the get go. I think if they fix that then a lot more people will want to transfer from COD

The console maps will be smaller. They are scaled. It's the same as BF2 and BF2142 on PC. 32 Player servers had smaller versions of the 64 player maps.
