Consoles should be played with a bunch of mates, half pissed and offline. Goldeneye 64, Mariokart etc. That's proper console gaming

You're generalising, I've rarely come across that in Battlefield games on the 360. In fact it's only really been CoD or Halo where you seem to get a lot of that and you can just mute them anyway...

Depends on how complex you want but for simple stuff iMovie does the job.

I got it for £159, I've got some better quality recordings but trying to edit them so they fit onto YouTube is a bit of a challenge at the moment.

What was the draw distance and frame rate like?
Two stabs to the chest for a knife kill like in CS 8)

Me and Mr Kav got to play Operation Metro yesterday!
Queued for 2 hours for about 7 minutes of gameplay. Would have had longer but just before I started the fucking PS3 crashed
Graphics were smooth for the Beta version. Had trouble getting used to the PS3 controller as the triggers and shoulder buttons were the wrong way round. I kept chucking grenades instead of aiming down the sight. The Light Machine Guns were awesome when used with the bipod. Accuracy was greatly increased. Tried all kits except recon and managed to get a couple of revives.
Tbh, it was a bit mad as I was trying to take it all in whike playing the game and using an unfamiliar controller.
In short though, I can imagine this game to be all sorts of win when released. The infantry maps will be epic!!!

All aboard the 303 bus.
iMovie will be up to the job if it's simple.
I'd really like them to build in a mechanism into the game to upload vids. Like they did with MW2.

BETA DATE ANNOUNCED!
It will start on the 27th of September for MOH:LE owners and anyone who has pre-ordered on Origin.
For the rest of us plebs it will be available on the 29th and will run until the 10th of October.
Map will be Operation Metro, Rush.
Bit surprised at that. Thought they would beta test Caspian Border as it is vehicle heavy. In any case, it's not a proper beta. No way will they be able to fix any bugs as the game will probably go gold in the first week of October so the discs can be made and distribution to stores carried out. So blatantly a network/server stress test which is a good thing.
Expect a patch on release day!!
Also, minimum & reccomended PC specs released. 20GB HD space needed!

You can indeed. Just go to the BF3 section on Marketplace and it will be available for DL.
A nice little timer for all three important dates here
