Last night's Late Night Consoling carried EA's announcement of Battlefield: Bad Company for PS3 and Xbox 360, but according to this Swedish press release on the DICE website we'll see a PC version too. The press release mentions that more information on a PC and PSP version will be released at a later date. Thanks Blues News.

One good thing that may come out of it being a console/PC release is that there's no way a crappy UI like BF2 had will fly on consoles for even a second. I side effect will hopefully be that the PC shares a similar "uncrappy" UI.

I'm curious about the AI. I don't think DICE has even tried with the AI in the other Battlefield games (no point really, online game). I'd hate for this to be ruined because the enemy is teh stoopidz.

I dunno about this. Sounds like another console-fied port to me. Nothing against consoles, since I love consoles too, but for the PC side of things, I expect more out of my PC games. Many times, multi-platform development ends up producing a subpar PC experience IMO. The game can still be good, but not reach the full potential that it could.
