Mw3′s robert bowling: "spent an hour playing @battlefield3… i loved it!"

4.5
Despite the heat between publishing giants Activision and Electronic Arts, game developers of Modern Warfare 3 and Battlefield 3 play praise highly of each other.

Recently, at GamesCon 2011, MW3′s creative strategist Robert “fourzerotwo” Bowling sat down with Daniel “zh1nt0″ Matros, community manager for BF3, at the Battlefield 3 booth and played roughly an hour of EA’s highly anticipated new shooter. While some may have been in awe of two community giants aiming down sights at each other and strapping C4 to each other’s backs, it was all fun and games to Mr. Bowling and Mr. Matros.

A competitive yet friendly conversation on Twitter shortly ensued thereafter:

fourzerotwo Robert Bowling

GamesCom completed! Spent an hour playing @Battlefield 3 multiplayer with friends from DICE, I loved it! Also, Batman: Arkham City = amazing

zh1nt0 Daniel Matros

@fourzerotwo @battlefield was an awesome session! Got your tags stay safe Rob! COD is lucky to have you

fourzerotwo Robert Bowling

@zh1nt0 I promise you, you will never get my fourzerotwo tags. That is a challenge my friend. Come for them and receive bullets in the face.

zh1nt0 Daniel Matros

@fourzerotwo bring it and @locust9 , it was a lot of fun

We all know that competition in the FPS genre right now is extremely fierce. But, it is nice to see game developers seeing through the politics.

Mr. Bowling ended the conversation by saying “Good point. When the game comes out, we will settle this.”

--Eminem-- This helps to show that CoD fans, even developers, don't spend their time hating on Battlefield like the Battlefield fans do to CoD
Exactly people take sides from the Devs. If some idiot goes "why do you play battlefield it sucks COD is better"then there just a loser
