My favorite is when a fps gamer talks s**t about the Madden Series for having a new game each year with only incremental improvement and roster changes that could be done with a DLC patch.
Then they go off raving about the new COD game and how they need to get it. Black Ops and Modern Warfare 2 were both released on Veteran's Day one year exactly apart, and I really can't tell the difference in the core mechanics. Go back to COD:4 and COD:5 and still, everything is exactly the same. Same reload, same tactics for killing, same missions...
Now everything copies COD's success and it really is stagnating the industry.

Not really. COD isn't anything new or special. What sold it was the hype. BF is a better game.

Not defending COD here as I agree they have minimal improvements each year, but there are two different studios making COD games. They alternate release years, so they each get two years to develop their game where as Madden is done by the same studio and is only given a year to make a new game.

I know for a fact battlefield is going to be better. Call of duty in a way, is a lot similar to most of today's music. Cheap and mindless.

Last year they said the same thing with Medal of Honor, "Call of Duty killer". It won't happen. I personally like Battlefield series alot more the COD. But the fanboys sway the markets.

Call of Duty and Battlefield aren't even in the same category! That's like comparing Need for Speed with Grand Theft Auto. Call of Duty is an ARENA game, great-great grandchild of Unreal Tournament and in the same category as Halo and is targeted towards CHILDREN. Battlefield is a WAR game with huge maps, vehicles and is targeted towards ADULTS. They're both fun, but can we please quit pissing in the wind?

My bad... CoD is built on the Quake III Engine, not Unreal Tournament Engine.
I love both games... but to say that CoD "destroyed the gaming world" is a bit much. Battlefield actually destroyed the world BEFORE CoD came along... and Doom destroyed the world WELL before that. :P

I liked Battlefield 2 more than COD I haven't played any of the new COD games for any real length of time. I just can't get into it to me it's just not much fun. I have played the Hell out of M.A.G. as I await Battlefield 3.

Seeing how BC2 used the Frostbite engine which let you destroy the environment (as in, ACTUALLY DESTROY the environment. You could dig out gigantic craters in the earth with enough explosions), and BF3 is going to be on the Frostbite 2 Engine, it's safe to say that BF3 is going to be anything but a CoD clone.
Anyways, a game a class system with checks and balances is always going to be > than a game that just lets anybody use whatever they want.

this is just another article to bolster tension between cod fanboys and battlefield fanboys... black ops single play was still fun to play.

CoD = the cheap, arcade version, of an actual shooter
BF = an actual good shooter

CoD = Cartoon combat
BF = More like real combat.
