The line for BF3 at GamesCom 2011. The booth hasn't even opened yet. This from L_Twin on Twitter.

I would sell a kidney to be at the front of that line.

I also noticed that it was one of the only games to get a actual round of applause in the press conference. Many of them got some respectful clapping (life FIFA Street). Battlefield had serious clapping and people yelling.

Keep in mind, today is only for "press." The doors to GamesCom open to the public tomorrow. Wait for the line THEN.

Oh really? I also heard to keep in mind that the "press" could play BF3, but could only watch MW3.

I'd give up 2 kidneys to be at the front of that line.

Your move Eliminator.

The difference between having a demo and just having a video.

EDIT: MW3 does have a demo, PS3 Co-op and PC multiplayer, but the picture is from before Gamecon is actually open.

Meanwhile, when Gamecon is actually open:


I love how they added a filter to the BF3 one to make it look like they were shot at the same relative time.

EDIT: Noticed they took down the pictures of the before hours Gamecon empty line at MW3.

This is in the BF3 booth by the way

To be fair, I think they were actually shot at the same time, but the MW3 booth didn't open until much later.
