No Battlefield 1943 in PS3 Battlefield 3

Posted on Wednesday, October 26 @ 07:34:27 Eastern by



During Sony's E3 press conference, it was revealed that the PS3 version of Battlefield 3, thanks to Blu-ray's massive storage capacity, would include the downloadable title Battlefield 1943, asbolutely free.

Battlefield 3's release came and went, leaving fans scratching their heads, trying to find out how to access their promised pack-in. Confused and disappointed, PS3 Battlefield 3 owners took to Twitter to ask EA for some clarity. EA responded:

In lieu of 1943 being available on disk for PS3 customers, EA has made all BF3 expansions available early to PS3 customers.

Gee... Thanks, EA! How about you tell us before we buy your game next time that we're getting the shaft?

    From what I gathered, only a week earlier than the rest. I'd be pissed.

    I'm soooo NOT getting BF3 for PS3, if not for waiting for the release of another FPS, also just to show a big middle finger back to EA.

    This is the kind of brain dead move that hurts companies, tarnishes reputations, and that breeds distrust and anger. Stupid move. EA needs to hire someone with a degree in marketing fast.

    I had no idea 1943 was supposed to come with BF3, and I don't really care that I'm not getting a free online-only WWII game that I'm sure has a small player base now that BF3 is out. I'd rather have a discount on expansions that earlier availability though.
