Well well well… Those with long memories should remember that Electronic Arts and Sony stated that there would be a decent incentive for people to pick up a PlayStation 3 version of Battlefield 3. Namely that it would include a free copy of Battlefield 1943 which certainly is a nice bonus to those already intent on purchasing the title.
Unfortunately this didn’t seem to be the case, as since the game came out yesterday, PlayStation 3 purchasers have disappointingly discovered that there would be no free game with their purchase. EA never announced that they would be refuting the bonus content, and instead simply let the fact go unnoticed until release. Under complaint of customers, EA issued a statement via Twitter saying “in lieu of 1943 being available on disk for PS3 customers, EA has made all BF3 expansions available early to PS3 customers.” Poor move EA…
