    Battlefield 3 Pre-Orders Up Over 700% vs. BF: Bad Company 2

    From Planetbattlefield.com:

    EA released their quarter 4 fiscal year 2011 financial results today, which announced that Battlefield 3 pre-orders are up 700% compared to Battlefield: Bad Company 2 in 2010. Looks like all the marketing for Battlefield 3 is already paying off and this is just the beginning.

    Also included is that Battlefield: Bad Company 2 sold over 7 million units to date including digital copies.

    Update: One thing I didn't noticed until now is that the financial results also mention a handheld / mobile version of Battlefield 3. Thanks Evil_Paladin.
