Battlefield 3 sells through 8 million of 12 million total shipped

4.3
In the month of November, EA moved another 3 million copies of Battlefield 3. At least, that's according to numbers revealed yesterday by EA CFO Eric Brown at the Baird Technology Conference in San Francisco (as reported by Game Informer), which has the game selling 8 million units in total across all its platforms out of 12 million shipped.

As with most major game launches, both the shipped and sold amounts of the game have dropped significantly since launch, with two million being pushed to retail from EA in the month of November versus 10 million during the first week. The game's first big expansion -- "Back to Karkand" -- is set to be released some time in December, with PS3 owners getting a crack at it one

It dosn't suck they are both equal, please leave this site if you wish to start fan boy wars while you ****, it's not cool


Last time I checked anyone with 79 posts probably shouldn't be telling people to leave the site.

But I agree, people should really stop flaming back and forth.

Battlefield 3 is good for realism and more serious plaers.

Modern Warfare 3 is arcade, and better for the casual gamer.

Now everyone shuddup

Pac: Look around TTG. Did TTG ask. Give us your
opinion on Battlefield and MW3? No. What about, please
start flame wars? No one cares about your opinion.
Stop being a poor sport. Really "Back to Crackland". Wow I heard better jokes from a cereal box. You should really keep your trap
shut you little 13yr old squeaker.


do i care about anything you have to say? no. am i 13? no im actually 16. you are actually continuing the flame war by posting? yes. so are you the one to blame? yes. I suggest you keep your trap shut next time also stop insulting people and talk about the games there is no need for this immature name calling. also flame wars will never end when companys like battlefield put out adds saying their game is better when in fact its the biggest piece of garbage they put out yet. I suggest you look at yourself in the mirror and seriously reconsider your life, considering you just wrote that to what you thought was a little 13 year old.

Why do you sit here and continue to troll? the games are completely different nothing to compare yet they are still amazing. so seriously go be butthurt somewhere else.


you haven't even be a member for 1 year you should shut up.


This chain of hate makes me laugh. Everyone will ALWAYS have different opinions. Everyone seriously needs to grow some balls and appreciate the hard work both companies put into these games.

So please, for the sake of man-kind, STFU.
