EA delivers dig at Call of Duty franchise

4.2
Electronic Arts has delivered another sly dig on Activision's Call of Duty franchise.

Battlefield 3's beta test press release has given another low blow to their competitor once again as it states: "Go Above and Beyond the Call".

EA's Labels president Frank Gibeau recently said on the shooter's competition this holiday season:

"This Christmas we're definitely going to take market share in the FPS category from those guys. Customers like competition, they like these kind of heavyweight fights so were going for it."

Battlefield 3 is currently scheduled for a release on October 25th in North America and three days later in Europe. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, meanwhile, is currently scheduled for a worldwide release on November.

8th.

Icy-TankJr All the words I can use to describe BF3. Garbage,Trash,wack,awful,horrible,waste of money. I'm gonna just buy the game and break the disk.


And how would you know this? Have you played the game already? Thought not. Don't judge a game before your try it.


Same goes to you, sir. And every other BFanboy who thinks BF3 will surpass MW3. MW3 will be just as good as BF3. They are both new, similar but different. We will see when they are both out.

Only reason Cod is so successful is because of Cod 4 & Cod 2. Pretty much all the others are awful. :

ExpectTheWorst Aweh.. It's okay, CoD fanboys. Maybe you're next 20 dollar map pack will come with an engine worth comparing to and a multiplayer experience that's actually competitive.

Isn't it nice to see a game like Battlefield, that was rendered with a "superior" engine, will always fail horribly in their attempt to catch up with CoD's popularity? Apparently the engine suddenly doesn't mean sh!t now does it.
