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.

IDarkPheonixI wooooo mw3 is guna b the bomb im going to go to the midnight launch

Try some other games besides COD theres more games then just COD and MW3 will be bomb for a while.


Why should people try other games if their having fun with the games they're currently playing? The only other game im going to play besides MW3 is BF3 next year until the next COD comes out.

iDigsby BF3 looks like it will play like BFBC2 on consoles which SUCKED!. Great "new engine" that still runs at 30FPS dice...


Popular games that run at 30fps on console:
Gta IV
Crysis 2
Halo 3 through reach
All battlefield games
Killzone 2/3
Gears of war 3
Uncharted 3
And a few dozen other games.
You probably didnt know this because you cant tell the difference between 30 fps and 60 fps. o yeah, I like CoD around just as much as I like battlefield but dude, ur a fanboy.

Dont really know what else to say because I'm tired and I'm going to sleep. If you read this, I will put you to shame tomorrow.


Dude It's very big difference between 30 and 60 fps..

If I had a dollar for every time someone said "Oh my god! it's only 30 FPS!!" (or something along those lines), and had no idea what the real difference is, I'd be a rich mother f**ker. Most console games are 30FPS. And my personal favorite (Halo) is also 30 FPS. And the Halo franchise has done more for the FPS (first person shooter) world than CoD or BF ever will.


agreed with you on Drphil
also BC 2 didn't suck on consoles, I'm deeply sorry that you couldn't quickscope and 360 no scope across the map

wtf when i pre-ordered it said nov 15, did they move it up so they could say the have more sells then MW3 when it comes out

I agree they really shouldn't base the other franchise to make them look better.

God damn EA.... It's not a good marketing strategy to just bash another game (that will do better than you) because in my eyes EA is looking like a real ass hole when they say stuff like this.

FullStreak As if you guys ever noticed 30 FPS running on a console...


I was just telling smart guy that he thinks bf3 is the only console game to run @30fps but all of the best console games run at that. The only reason I can tell the difference is bcuz I play pc and xbox.
