Heroism on this battlefield is not about making an all-out adrenaline rush toward glory. It's about steel-eyed determination in combat designed to be chaotic, dizzying, and completely unnerving. Battlefield 3 is built on the Frostbite 2 game engine, which creates an incredibly lifelike world and pushes it to the quivering edge. Calm - and everything else for that matter - can be shattered at any moment. Keep your wits about you on realistic missions that demand precision in the face of chaos. Lead a squad of U.S. Marines through urban hotspots in Europe, North America, and the Middle East or go online and see if you can survive 24-soldier multiplayer.
