Exactly. COD is very linear compared to BF with NO structural damage. It's awesome while playing BF and you roll up in a tank in front of a building or house that's nesting a couple of guys shooting out the window and just blow the shit out of it.

I am so excited for this game. I'm a Battlefield fanboi. I've logged 45 hours of BF1942, 275 hours of BF2, 593 hours of BF2142, 346 hours of BF:BC2, and just a few of BF:Vietnam.

I'm thinking that BF3 might break all those records.

I'm very excited for this one. I got super bored of Black Ops in about a month and went back to good ol' BC2 --- awesome game.

I'm getting Portal 2 today, Brink in a couple weeks, and La Noire in a couple weeks, hopefully that will be enough to hold me over until Battlefield 3 -- woot.

I've played about an hour into Portal 2. It's awesome so far.

Anyone want to make a OC Steam group?

Same shit happened with one of my classes when Halo 3 came out. I like when professors are aware that people would much rather be other places on certain days and wouldn't really be paying attention.

Portal is excellent and is only $9.99 on Steam. No reason to not own it. One of the most entertaining gaming experiences I've had.

Oh dear lord.

http://store.steampowered.com/about

Steam is a service that functions sort of like the Xbox Live of PC gaming. But better. You can purchase all your games on Steam (and they have incredible sales frequently) and then play with friends, there's achievements, etc. It's a really great service.

Edit: For example Dlazz just started playing TF2.

About 10 hours of Portal 2 for me today. Co-op is fantastic. You definitely need a mic to communicate.

Amazon has 12/31/2011, MW3 11/08/11. But none of that matters...
