Battlefield 4 to be Bundled with AMD Cards
While AMD is preparing to release a new Never Settle gaming bundle offer that will allow select AMD A8 and A10 APU owners to get a free Origin game download code for SimCity. A high-ranking executive from Advanced Micro Devices said the company would bundle the upcoming Battlefield 4 video game with its graphics cards as a part of future promo campaigns, such as Never Settle. Since Battlefield 4 is due in late 2013, chances are that AMD will add the game to its next-generation graphics cards, not the current-gen products.
“[Partnership between AMD and EA DICE on the Battlefield 4] was presented at the Game Developer Conference, and the AMD Gaming Evolved logo already appeared online in the context of the game. You can expect that Battlefield 4 will be part of [future] Never Settle bundles,” said Roy Taylor, corporate vice president of global channel sales, said in an interview with Heise.de web-site. AMD and DICE (an Electronic Arts studio that develops Battlefield video games) demonstrated the content from the forthcoming Battlefield 4 game at the GDC 2013 running on a PC based on the Radeon HD 7990 graphics car, a long-awaited flagship dual-chip graphics solution by AMD.

Wow, first, sony invested in amd to implement their graphic chips into the new playstation, which is yet to be released and now they partnered up with ea and their origin service on battlefield 4, well this is can go well for amd, I cannot express how happy Iam because a healthy competition on the graphics card market is a good thing, but it can also backfire massively if the new sony console won't sell as good as it's predecessor and battlefield 4 will fail just like betafield 3 in terms of how buggy the game was on launch and still remains the same after nearly 2 years after the release.... Remember bf3 was released in the autumn 2011, I reckon that they won't ever fix those bugs, because dice dropped their support of bf3 after the last expansion was released and their main focus is on developing bf4.

Well personally I don't care about BF4 but that's still an amazing offer.
Seems AMD really are trying to please......it's nice to see these awesome deals available instead of them just using sly marketing tactics.
Dunno how they do it tbh....

AMD honestly seems desperate. The nVidia deals are crap, but they don't care, they get away with the higher prices and lack of real bundles.
great deals from amd

I don't know why people are complaining about the bundle of two as yet unreleased products? Personally I would buy an AMD GPU again after how well my 5850 has done (although at this point I don't know for sure as I will assess when released), and I will certainly buy the next Battlefield... What's not to like about getting them in one package?

Ehhh, then way to go Nvidia! Rip us off!
AMD is just desperate! Kill them off!
I don't think business practices are understood around here much.

sounds nice, but i hope they will also focus on nvidia/intel hardware, as on amd hardware. else this would rly suck ...
anyway, i can`t understand all the negative arguing about bf3. if you don`t like it, don`t buy it. i also hate the client side hit detection, the lack of commander, missing mod support & recorder.
the drm, well i also hate origin and all the other drm crap. but what can i do? i wanna play the multiplayer, so i have to take that pill. there is no alternative atm.
so what should i do now? don`t buy the game bcus of the drm and the missing gadgets? don`t play a game, although it makes a lot of fun, just to take a stand?
lol, i would rly stand alone
if you can show me a cool fps from fall 2011/2012/2013 without any drm, hacks, dlc crap and bugs, with outstanding graphics, hey i would give it a try.
remember bf is not simcity.

Cool.
Oh, and Hilbert; "game at the GDC 2013 running on a PC based on the Radeon HD 7990 graphics car" - I think you're missing a "d".
It makes a lot of sense for DICE to take sides with AMD, and to be honest I think this is a side effect that nVidia did not consider when they messed around sony and m$.
Now (if you really think about it) ALL games will be primarily tested on AMD hardware. If there is no impact to nVidia, someone correct me - and I will humbly stand corrected.
