Battlefield 3 and Modern Warfare 3: Which is Better?
The Call of Duty series has seen better times. Technically, it’s still the best selling and most popular first person shooter franchise out there, but with the departure of a large chunk of the original Infinity Ward team, and reports of every Activision studio pooling their efforts to get Modern Warfare 3 out of the gate, it’s easy to assume the franchise is losing steam. This wouldn’t be a problem, except there’s a competitor, and a pretty huge one, at that. Battlefield 3. This game has floored anyone who’s watched the gameplay with it’s amazing graphics, which look like they belong on a different generation of hardware. At the same time, the gameplay itself is taking a far different approach than Modern Warfare 3, with far slower pacing, less battles, and more realism. It’s somewhat obvious which game won over the audience at E3, but which one is truly better, from what we’ve seen so far?
