EA Makes Nice with Battlefield 1943 Downloads for PS3 Gamers

Posted on Friday, November 25 @ 11:42:03 Eastern by

Way back before Battlefield 3's release, someone spoke too soon or wasn't authorized to speak or was just too stupid to keep his mouth shut. That's why we all thought PS3 version of Battlefield 3 would come with Battlefield 1943 on the disc.

Thankfully, the internet never forgets.

With a looming class-action lawsuit, Electronic Arts have decided to make good on their marketing foot-in-mouth and are offering up Battlefield 1943 download codes for those of you who've still got a sore thumb about getting a free game you won't play because you just bought a brand new Battlefield game.

EA's redemption portal will open up on November 26th for Europeans and December 10th for Americans. You'll need to log in with your Origin ID and request a code for your specific region.

    But that still won't grant them forgiveness, or will it?
    I wouldn't forgive them had I bought this. Making me register in Origin (don't know if it's mandatory to be able to play BF3 online on PS3), making me wait until they're ready and until it downloads? No way.

    This wasn't a solution to make me happy and forget the problem. I cannot give a good solution to this problem as I don't know one, but I would have never opened my mouth and caused the problem in the first place, that I'm certain about.

    Personally speaking...who the fetch cares? You have a choice between BF3 and BF1943. Which one you gonna choose. The one that has three classes with only one gun option and only Domination and only like 3 or 4 maps, and it completely looks like a downloadable title and it came out more than two years ago, and it has like a $5 value on PSN? Or the one that is brand new?

    Show me the official advertisement, then get butt hurt. Until then, get your code play for five minutes and go back to your new $60 game.

    I love how we gamers sit around and call BS at Bethesda for the whole Scrolls thing, then we act like children when an off-hand comment a long time ago was made, and mostly everyone forgot about it. Mmm... hypocrisy is fun.
