That is a great deal. I wish they had this at launch...

Money, money, money. This *** is getting ridiculous.....
by Doctor Whovian Tuesday, August 14, 2012 at 10:13 AM

Good deal, but a little too late. Battlefield 3 will have a thick layer of dust on it before I'm done with Borderlands 2 and Halo 4.

That's a pretty good deal, but I already own the game.

I'm not sure why people keep saying this is a good deal. It would have been a good deal on day 1 but its been almost a year after release. This is like the game of the year edition, which should have everything for like $50.

Whoa... Just whoa.

I hope with Battlefield 4 they make this at launch. Because they are WAY behind the curve.

I'm confused. Didn't we get this already? What's the real difference, besides the price?
by jmpittman860220 Tuesday, August 14, 2012 at 10:34 AM

Who is going to buy this? Especially at $70. This is ridiculous.
by salbasile Tuesday, August 14, 2012 at 10:35 AM

Am I missing something here? How is this not a slap in the face to day-one buyers who also don't want to buy Premium? You're getting Premium for $10 with an incredibly late purchase? Awarding people who waited?
by Brandon Tuesday, August 14, 2012 at 10:42 AM

Don't worry, just about everyone on the BF3 forums seems pissed about this.
by ZioYuri78 Tuesday, August 14, 2012 at 10:43 AM

in Italy we say "bellammerda"
by Juanolo Tuesday, August 14, 2012 at 10:47 AM

Great
by tribeKreaTIV Tuesday, August 14, 2012 at 11:25 AM

I bought premium and I don't mind. All they really get is all the shortcuts in the game. Which I have already unlocked.
by Meta77 Tuesday, August 14, 2012 at 11:29 AM

why get this when bf 4 is coming soon
by Bethesda_Fanboy Tuesday, August 14, 2012 at 11:34 AM

I'm pretty sure that everyone that has and wants BF3 already has it and premium, what a waste.
by Muenster Cheese Tuesday, August 14, 2012 at 12:17 PM

can I get this for PC? it doesn't say so in the article, but I've been looking to switch from 360 to PC
by Frosty1627 Tuesday, August 14, 2012 at 12:24 PM

Will be really handy when I buy a PC.
by Nick Tuesday, August 14, 2012 at 12:32 PM

I'm so tired of EA giving people shortcuts and crutches. they did it in Bad Company 2 buy selling the ability to unlock everything for kits with Kit Shortcuts and now they're doing it again, People shouldn't be allowed to Pay-2-Win. God I hate EA.
