German fansite Battlefield Blog got an early look at Battlelog and posted the details on its site. The post was quickly pulled, but not before the Internets got ahold of the info, which is now available on another Battlefield fansite, Battlefieldo. Check the image below for our first look:

Like other such services, it appears Battlelog will allow players to keep close track of their in-game stats, equipment, and achievements, while adding a social media aspect where friends can connect, chat, and enter multiplayer or co-op matches together.
Also of note in the leaked images is the "View in Com Center" option under friends playing co-op and multiplayer games. While this could simply be a link to a friend's Battlelog page, it also suggests players might be able to watch their friends in online and co-op matches.
DICE and EA have yet to comment on the leak.
Battlefield 3 is in development for Windows PCs, Xbox 360, and PlayStation 3. The game is scheduled for launch on October 25.
Sharkey says: The big question for me is what Activision will offer as a premium through CoD: Elite. The publisher is pitching Elite as a competitive advantage but has yet to reveal anything that suggests it will be worth paying for. Nice to know I won't have to in Battlefield 3.
