Battlefield 3 - Feature pic

Battlefield 3 has a lot going for it, and on consoles, compares only really to the other games in its long series – my own experience is with Battlefield 1943 (still cracking value for money on Xbox Live Arcade) and Bad Company 2 plus its brilliant Vietnam DLC.

So when is it OK for a girl to ask a guy (or vice-versa) for their gamertag? Is that a ridiculous question? I’m just not sure, help me out here.
