Battlefield developer DICE has revealed that by next year, there'll be new releases built upon its Frostbite engine which require a 64-bit OS. If you're still on 32-bit, you might want to think about upgrading--more than you have these past eight years, anyway.

While there's no arguing the power of a gaming PC for Battlefield 3, playing the beta on the Xbox 360 proves the game holds its own on modern consoles and an HDTV.
