Review & Description

Battlefield 3 leaps ahead of the competition with the power of Frostbite 2, the next installment of DICE's cutting-edge game engine. This state-of-the-art technology is the foundation on which Battlefield 3 is built, delivering superior visual quality, a grand sense of scale, massive destruction, dynamic audio and incredibly lifelike character animations. As bullets whiz by, walls crumble, and explosions throw you to the ground, the battlefield feels more alive and interactive than ever before. In Battlefield 3, players step into the role of the elite U.S. Marines where they will experience heart-pounding single player missions and competitive multi-player actions ranging across diverse locations from around the globe including Europe, Middle-East and North America.

Battlefield 3 Vs Modern Warfare 3 - Which one better?

There is a storm brewing in game land people, get your coats and umbrellas, and prepare for war! Two heavy weight titles are being released this holiday season, and they both have fanboi's frothing at the mouth. Each title in itself, should prove to be the triple A titles they claim to be. Will there be a defined winner? Will the winner be decided by pure dollars? Oh yes mommy, they will, they will.

Battlefield 3

Do not confuse Battlefield 3 as a sequel to Battlefield: Bad Company 2, this it is not. It is actually a direct sequel to Battlefield 2, one of the longest running multiplayer games out there. The differences between Battlefield 3 and Battlefield 2 will be in technology and the addition of a full single player campaign. With the Frostbite 2 engine, there will be much more that can be done in Battlefield 3, including taking out those pesky snipers behind that wall. Multiplayer is also shaping up to be one of the best experiences available in a first person shooter game. One component that has been confirmed in the multiplayer is the return of gold rush, which is really a search and destroy type scenario. Players defend caches of gold, while other players attempt to destroy them. The one thing that will be missing(at least at launch,) which made Battlefield 2 so popular is modding tools. Community created mods like Project Reality, almost completely changed how the game was played, and in general feels far more real than any game should be. This could be an issue for BF3's staying power, unless they decide to release mod tools after the games release.

Modern Warfare 3

Ah, who doesn't love kill streaks in the morning? Modern Warfare 3, is obviously a direct sequel to Modern Warfare 2. As part of the long running Call of Duty franchise, the single player campaign is set to finish what Modern Warfare 1 started several years ago. Which by the way, Modern Warfare 1 had a far better single player campaign than two did. Of course, this is personal preference, and should be taken as such. Modern Warfare 1 also introduced kill streak rewards, which made the game instantly popular. If Modern Warfare 3's single player is anything like Modern Warfare 1's single player campaign, there will be a lot of happy people come release day. Modern Warfare 2's single player campaign, was just too jumpy, and while it made a little sense, it didn't do enough to make the player feel like they were playing a sequel. Modern Warfare 3's multiplayer is looking to change some formulas, regarding how they treat kill streaks, leveling up, and weapon customizations. As of this writing, there were no firm details on what changes were made, but hopefully those changes will be unveiled prior to release.

The Battle Begin!

Both of these titles are due to release within two weeks of each other. With the economy such as it is, players will likely have to make a decision on which game they are going to purchase. Battlefield 3, has received much praise just from videos and screen shots from around the internet. On the same coin however, so has Modern Warfare 3. These two games going head to head, is like a championship fight in Las Vegas. The only thing this competition is missing, is a betting line. Come to think of it, it is Vegas, they probably have numbers on which one is going to do better. If you can afford it, do yourself a favor, and buy both games. If you can't afford it, than decide which one you are going to buy. My dollars are going with Battlefield 3.
