Battlefield 3: War is beautiful
Sure, it's war, but the game makes war look as gorgeous as it possibly can, with beautifully designed maps that come to life with incredible detail and lighting. The intense 24-person battles are particularly fun in some of the tighter urban maps such as Grand Bazaar in Tehran. Our favorite is Operation Metro in Paris, particularly when your squad finds itself under heavy fire and has to duck into some of the nooks around the map's subway section.
