Battlefield 3 Expansions Coming One Week Early To PS3
Battlefield 3Call of Duty DLC always arrives earlier for Xbox 360 fans, but PlayStation 3 owners have something to crow about, too.
DICE Jr. Product Manager Tommy Rydling gave us some great Battlefield 3 information over at the PlayStation Blog.
First, he reminded us of the open beta dates for the PlayStation Netweork: the test starts on September 29 and runs through October 10. You can join just by going to the PlayStation Store and downloading the BF3 demo (that's the beta). We'll be running around the "bombed-out metro tunnels on the outskirts of Paris;" sounds like fun! You're also in the beta if you redeemed a Medal of Honor: Limited Edition or Tier 1 Edition Online Pass; this actually lets you participate a few days early on September 27.
In addition, PS3 fans get a bonus: starting with the first expansion pack - Back to Karkand, set to be released later this year - all new packs for BF3 "will appear one week early exclusively on PS3." So yeah, Modern Warfare 3 DLC will come to Microsoft's console first but if you're more of a Battlefield 3 fan, you might want the PS3 version, so you can grab those packs a week early.

At least EA is being gracious and doing it by one week....one month is just absurd.

Something tells me BF3 will be one of the biggest seller this year and it's gonna stop MW3 from breaking any records.

i still remember the other day when dyer had a pot shot at M$ because of all the exclusive DLC they had inferring it was a waste of money.
then they go do the exact same thing!
what a bunch of hypocrites!
while antivision and bethesda have been in bed with M$, EA has been getting it on with $ony.
i wish all this BS platform timed exclusives would stop!
its just unfair to the fans.
you should be saying thank you for buying our game!
not f*ck you for buying our game on the wrong platform!
