Modern Warfare 3 vs Battlefield 3: This War is Dumb

Even with all the growing hate for Modern Warfare 3 in the internet community, it is hard to deny the success of the game.

This article puts the ridiculousness of the war between 2011's biggest shooters to rest by comparing the massive differences between the two.

The article also points out which game wins in a breakdown of categories (the results are unexpected).

well written article, but it's sad that the singleplayer picture of MW3 was actually in COD4. They look so similar you can't tell the difference.

DeadeyeMouse4507d ago

Yah know... I guess that says a lot about the franchise itself. It is time they go ahead and try something different (I just made a joke).

The controls and the gameplay is top-notch, but the setting is getting stale.

CarlitoBrigante4507d ago

I think BF3 is superior becoz it has:

-medic class
-not run and gun Rambo style gameplay
-team play and tactics
-destruction
-vehicles

And I never played any BF before BF3, I was a CoD player.

Cosmit4507d ago

No run and gun Rambo style gameplay? Yeah there is. Its what I do. BF3 is way too easy for me.

just enough of cod already!
We are NOT haters. We are FANS of the game from cod 4.
We still waiting for the true sequel for cod 4 and all we got is rehashed garbage year over year over year!

We want innovation again. If rehashing didnt stop then cod wont survive!
Hell, you figure they would learn the lesson after guitar hero died because of their greed.

i learned this not only from previous marriages and from gamers...

1. no matter how much you want someone to like something, you cannot force them to like it.

2. even if a something is technically superior, some people will still prefer a technically inferior product because of numerous reasons. ex: friends, used to the controls, ect...

3. there are 2 different gamers, the ones who are informed and the ones who dont know about something until they see it in the store, these people are going to buy into advertisements and most likely will never take someones word for it and never give something else a chance.

At the end of the day, you're getting top notch FPS games. That is all that matters.

MW3 when I want to goof around and just have fun.

BF3 when I want to play a little more seriously, but still leave room for a good laugh.

They both appeal to me, as they should to anybody who is a fan of the FPS genre.

Blastoise4507d ago

I disagree with that. Coming from a person who enjoyed Black ops & Mw2 enough to have over two weeks online playtime each, Modern warfare 3 just didnt change enough things to keep it interesting.

DeadeyeMouse4506d ago

At least it was a well thought out and written trolling right?

JellyJelly4507d ago

I don't hate the COD series, they can be good fun. It's just that I think Battlefield 3 is better in all areas when it comes to the multiplayer. And that's where I spend most of my time with them.

I think the only type of games that can gets away with it would be sport games, having those sponsors ads on the side like on real life.

But don't put freaking Doritos ads in Star Wars or something, it breaks the immersion. If it is a pop-up ads, then big no.

EA can thoughtfully eff themselves.

EA coming back for the crown of being perceived as the worst company in gaming.

Chocoburger6d ago (Edited 6d ago )

One of my favorite series is the THPS franchise, and it was packed with ads, but it didn't bother me. Posters for skateboard companies, JEEP, and Nokia phones. It did sort of fit in with the game world, but that was the past, these days ad would be intentionally intrusive or unskippable loading screen type of imagery. Ugh, I know EA would do it in a horrible fashion. Screw them.
