whats ur pc specs btw?
Fuck wish I hadn't seen this as I wanna play it now!
Glad I copped a sick overclocked PC a few months back though, should handle this pretty well.
http://www.overclockers.co.uk/ is a good site if you wanna look at building your own PC. Alternatively the have ready made systems, you can swap out parts for others and they'll re-evaluate the price.

ive got a mate in IT who reckons i'll need to spend 600 tops. he built me my current one a couple of years ago for 400 and it was good enough for any games at the time. i might even get away with just upgrading the graphics card
You don't need to spend a shitload to get a decent PC. ~£600 is my budget when I build mine. And if you can't justify that over a console, remember you're getting something far more powerful than any console as well as a new computer for whatever else all in one. Building yourself is cheaper than buying, too.
AMD Phenom quad core processor, 3.6GHz, 4GB RAM, GeForce GTX 460 gfx card.
Think the soundcard is the onboard one on the motherboard but it's a high quality one. Good heatsink cooler too. I swapped out their gfx card for the GTX 460 as it was a lot cheaper but it's a nice card still.
Came to around £550 I think. The good thing really is that if in future games get too advanced for it then it's quite simple to just replace a component for a newer one instead of having to buy a whole new PC again.
I didn't realise people still bought soundcards tbh, I assumed standard ones are good enough

.So far DICE has shown tremendous-looking Battlefield 3 running exclusively on PC. How will it look when it makes the leap to console? "What we're showing on PC might look better than on console," said DICE executive producer Patrick Bach to VideoGamer.com in an interview, "but what we'll show on console doesn't look worse than any other game out there. It's probably even better than every other game out there on console."
Bach explained how he feels people will react when they finally see Battlefield 3 running on 360 and PS3. "Most people will be very positive because they might be afraid that it won't look as good as other games and it will, and some people will of course be disappointed that it doesn't look like the PC version."
What will the console versions lack, then? "The higher resolution, the higher framerate, the anti-aliasing, the motion blur, stuff like that. We can't have it to the same quality on the console," says Bach.
Bach also explained the predicament for the Swedish studio. "The problem if you're setting a new bar is you're pushing yourself up. Of course there's a challenge by showing something that looks amazing on PC and then something that just looks great on console. I think the challenge is to beat ourselves. Of course, it's hard to do that because of the practical limitations of the consoles."
How does DICE feel about rival engine technology, then? "There's always competition to build not only the best game but the best technology, the best features," says Bach, "and you want to be the best at everything, of course, that's how things are being moved forward."
"We are not trying to build any of our old games, and we're not trying to build any of our competitors' games: we're trying to build our own Battlefield 3."

Battlefield 3 is due for release on PC, Xbox 360 and PS3 in November.

There's still a load of people playing it from what I can tell. Whenever i join a game on the PS3 the game is always nearly full plus you can pick up the Ultimate Edition with the DLC and BF 1943 with it.
It's hard to get into if your used to playing COD 24/7 but if it pull's you in you'll be hooked
