Sledgehammer: Forget Battlefield, MW2 is the game to beat

4.6
Call of Duty developer Sledgehammer Games says its big adversary is Modern Warfare 2, not Battlefield.

Studio head Glen Schofield has played down Modern Warfare 3’s rivalry with EA’s Battlefield 3, insisting his main focus is to live up to the 2009 FPS predecessor.

“We have a lot of respect for each other,” he told MCV of the firm’s relationship with Battlefield developer DICE. “We know how hard each team works, I know the sacrifices they and their families are putting in, so there is a lot of respect there. I think it’s fought at a different level of ours. So although they may be our competition, I actually view Modern Warfare 2 as the benchmark that I need to aim for.”

Schofield admitted that Sledgehammer Games does feel the weight of expectation in developing the next Call of Duty but is confident fans won’t be disappointed.

“We have the pressure of living up to Modern Warfare 2,” he added. “I would be kidding you if I said there was no pressure. We’re working on the biggest game in the world. “But there is also that adrenaline that kicks in when you are working on a game like this.

“We have really polished Modern Warfare 3. A lot of passionate people spent a lot of time making it.”

LAD They never f*cking learn! CoD4 is the game they need to beat. Shame no-one ever will.

i agree
they need to start thinking about making a game that will compare to COD 4 not MW2.


cod 4 sucked there are so many things wrong with it.
Uh, That is because Cod4 is as old as your Mother.

So people are infecting it and ****. You're referring it to be bad NOW. But when it was all legit. It was the best game. Best CoD hands down.

Even with the hacking whores . it's still a great CoD.

MW2 is just overdone. Retarded overpowred killstreaks and ****.

But MW2 is still great. COD2 is better than Black Ops. People only play it for the Zombies. which 3/4 of the population black ops has is on.


wow then my mother is young... anyway the only reason cod 4 was great when it was legit is because it was only legit for about a month before it became infested with hackers. and even then all the game was was overpowered guns, perks, grenades, helicopter. but to be honest i can care less for cods. but i still think cod 5 was the best even if it didnt have zombies it was the best.

BORDERLANDS ALL THE WAY!
