[EDIT] DICE’s Battlefield 3 has been voted Game of the Show of Gamescom 2011 by nine of Eurogamer’s Network sites it was announced today.
The military shooter, which was also probably the most popular exhibit on the show floor in Cologne , topped their list of 10 nominees that included Skyrim, Mass Effect 3, Arkham City
Battlefield 3 has been called upon by EA to compete directly with Activision’s world dominating Call of Duty series. It comes completed with an exciting single-player campaign mode and a gigantic online multiplayer that has made it very hard to ignore this year.
It's slightly frustrating that the 64 player online from the PC game won’t make it to the console version but it still looks visually stunning and Bad Company 2 was some of the greatest online console gaming of recent years.
