Rapper DeStorm and filmmaker Tom Antos
have a very important message for would-be campers in Battlefield 3:
don't even try it. Also, stop being such a damn wuss. To be clear,
these are their words, not ours--and whether you view camping as a
tactical strategy or a cheap way to rack up kills, there's no arguing
Antos' Campers Be Warned videos is one of the most well produced (if
not catchiest) fan flicks floating around right now...
Okay, Skyrim has snow. That makes sense. But the only white stuff coming
out of the sky in Battlefield 3 is bone fragments. Either way, click on
