"Battlefield 3 won&amp;#039;t be released on Steam, according to a report. Electronic Arts posted a list of digital download services that will sell the shooter, including its own storefront Origin, Direct2Drive and GamersGate, but not Steam, according to Joystiq. As the listing was soon pulled by EA, it is not yet confirmed whether Battlefield 3 will be released on Steam, which currently has over 30 million users. Crysis 2, which is also published by Electronic Arts, was recently pulled then reinstated on Steam following a change in contract agreements with Valve. Battlefield 3 has been confirmed to feature a two player co-operative mode alongside its campaign and multiplayer modes. The game will launch on October 25 in North America and October 28 in Europe, two weeks prior to Modern Warfare 3&amp;#039;s November 8 worldwide release.
