Battlefield 3 cracks skulls in this new gameplay trailer

Add as a preferred source on Google

Once more unto the breach, dear friends. Battlefield 3 concludes the trio of gameplay trailers that it has released under the banner of the “Fault Line” series, with this third and final video, “Get That Wire Cut”.

Where the first clip showed off the game in general terms, and the second trailer highlighted the destructible environments, this trailer shows both the frantic pace of a full-on assault, as well as the character animations.

Recommended Videos

Tasked with cutting the wire to an explosive that is moments away from killing everyone, your character of Black is ambushed by an enemy combatant. Once he has been thoroughly punchicized, you return to the street where a full scale assault is getting underway. But make sure to watch the video to the very end–there is a reason that these videos have been dubbed “Fault Line”.

Look for a full length version of these three trailer on April 17, and join us in staring longingly at the vague Autumn release date when Battlefield 3 debuts on PC, PS3 and Xbox 360.

If you're the kind of person who plans vacations around vintage arcades, hunts down rare pinball machines, or misses that one table you played years ago, there's now a surprisingly useful tool built just for you.

Called Pinball Map, the free website and mobile app does exactly what its name suggests. It helps players locate public pinball machines almost anywhere in the world, whether they're tucked away inside dedicated arcades, neighborhood bars, restaurants, museums, breweries, or even campgrounds. Think of it as Google Maps, but instead of helping you find coffee shops, it points you to your next pinball game.

Asus’ powerful new gaming laptop with a 240Hz Mini LED display makes its global debut
The 2026 ROG Strix G18 pairs up to RTX 5080 graphics with an Intel Core Ultra 9 290HX Plus CPU
ROG Strix G18 (2026) laptop

Asus has started rolling out the 2026 ROG Strix G18 globally, and the easiest way to describe it is as a slightly toned-down version of the ridiculous ROG Strix Scar 18. It keeps the same 24-core Intel Core Ultra 9 290HX Plus processor but tops out at an Nvidia GeForce RTX 5080 Laptop GPU instead of the Scar’s RTX 5090. (via Notebookcheck)

The Mini LED model gets the best balance
