I know that there are several fans of the Battlefield series that wondered if there would ever be a proper PC sequel Battlefield 2. After all, DICE has been concentrating on console development of late, with the release of Battlefield: Bad Company last year, and the imminent release of Battlefield 1943 on PlayStation Network and XBox Live, not to mention the targeted release later this year of Battlefield: Bad Company 2.

Well, it’s time for a big sigh of relief. According to G4, development of Battlefield 3 has been officially confirmed.

It seems that John Pleasants, Chief Operating Officer of Electronic Arts, had the following to say in a presentation at the William Blair Growth Stock Conference, confirming that he’s seen Battlefield 3,

“I’ve had the luxury of looking at Battlefield 3 over at DICE in Sweden and was highly impressed by the way the team is working on that product. Of course, that’s not [coming out] in the fiscal year, but that is a product that is looking very good.”

So, no worries, PC shooter fans. The penultimate military shooter is indeed headed back to your platform of choice. It looks like it won’t arrive until later in 2010, but there is light on the horizon at last. Here’s hoping that it hews closer to the line of Battlefield: Vietnam, my personal favorite of all the Battlefield titles.

I’ve been a fan of the Battlefield series since BF1942 launched way back in 2002. I have to admit to being at least moderately excited about the upcoming release of Battlefield 1943.

Sure, it’s just a downloadable game for consoles, but BF: Bad Company was a blast, and BF1943 is based on the same Frostbite engine. Sure, it’s just a remake of some classic maps for BF 1942, but they were great maps!

Anyway, on the back of this month’s gamesTM magazine (a German games publication) you can find an ad for Battlefield 1943. In that ad, it lists the release date for the game as June 25 on Playstation Network and XBox Live.

Here’s hoping that’s entirely accurate. You can find that ad after the break.

There’s a video review of the single-player storyline for Battlefield: Bad Company available on ChannelFlip. I know most gamers don’t buy Bad Company for the single player experience. For those days when your friends are all busy doing something productive with their lives, or you finally reach your breaking point and get fracked off with all the noobs online; there is a single-player option.

Form up you maggots!

Are you getting tired of the same old FPS cliches being trotted out time after time?

Well fear not: in Bad Company, the Battlefield experts have turned their hand to creating a single-player campaign which offers a refreshing and high quality take on the genre with great graphics, an interesting plot and non-cringeworthy script, and of course decent gun play to boot.

Oh yeah, and the best damn soundtrack ever.

We knew it was coming “soon,” but in Valve Time, that means it’s coming once Duke Nukem Forever goes gold. It looks like that’s not the case for DICE, as they’ll be releasing the much-anticipated classic Battlefield mode, Conquest, to Battlefield: Bad Company owners free of charge on August 7.

This should go a long way to helping extend the game’s legs. Gold Rush is fun, but it can get old fairly quickly and doesn’t allow for much player freedom. Of course, you could argue the same about Conquest, but it’s clearly stood the test of time, having been the lifeblood of the Battlefield series since 1942.

Four of the existing maps will be modified to support Conquest, with hopefully more to follow.
