    Battlefield 3 Producer Dissects The FPS Genre

    From Game Informer:

    The first-person shooter has grown to become a dominant genre in modern gaming. With so many studios cranking out shooters, creating a unique identity has become increasingly difficult. When checking out Battlefield 3 in Sweden, we asked executive producer Patrick Bach if he had any thoughts about the current state of the first-person shooter genre. "It's all I think about," he said.

    Check out the video below to hear him talk about the roots and evolution of the genre.

    Teamwork, less cut-scenes, adding to the FPS experience, using technology to produce realism? A good interview for general FPS experience, but what do you think will be in Battlefield 3? Will it all be there?

        Well, thats the thing. Demize already said no on those things. The things mentioned more in this vidoe is what they are going for. I wonder more about 3D technology as well as the "less cut-scenes".

        @Infernalis, thanks for posting up a Youtube version.

          he said no on letting me play bf3 on my pc ?
          hehe i know you were mentioning the grappling hook but i really felt like saying that xD. I am not a very big supporter of glasses 3d. I WILL buy a 3d television when 3d starts working with no glasses (that 3d that instead of "leaving" the screen is a like a in depth 3d where it seems the screen has depth , hope i'm making myself clear

            No he said "and Jimykx from TGN will not be able to play Battlefield 3 on his PC. We will implement DRM, not for piracy, but to detect if jimy is the one at the computer or console"

            Kidding though I havent seen the video yet as I dont have too much time...

                Whatever you do Jimy, don't go to the dark side and go console on us!
