I really enjoy Battlefield: Bad Company 2, finding it a much better game all-round than Call of Duty, and I’ve been planning a pre-order of Battlefield 3 when it comes out, but today I saw some of the awesome gameplay videos on YouTube including this one:
It’s looking to be excellent stuff, and the new co-op play sounds interesting, too.
Amusingly, you can pre-order Battlefield 3 Special Edition on Amazon for £38.91 at the time of writing, cheaper than the “Standard Edition” at £43.56, and a shade cheaper than Play.com who want £39.81. Amazon also claim “Pre-order Battlefield 3 with us at Amazon.co.uk before 23:59 on Thursday, October 27 and you’ll receive a code to download the Specact Kit DLC – not a massive selling point, but extra stuff for free.
The lazy side of me enjoys Quick Search bookmarks in Firefox, so that I can type e.g. cpan ModuleName to look up a module on CPAN etc, pd perlfoo to look up the imaginary perlfoo documentation on perldoc, etc.
It suddenly occurred to me to create a keyword search with the keyword p3, and the URL as http://p3rl.org/%s – now I can jump straight to pages I want with e.g. p3 Dancer, p3 perlrun etc.
I think you’ll agree we’ve come a long way since then, thanks to the awesome community and user base built up around the project since then.
In these two years, we’ve had countless valuable contributions from a large list of contributing users (see the list on the about page), gathered over 300 watchers on GitHub, had 84 people fork the repository on GitHub, had 620 pull requests submitted… amazing stuff.
