Heh, that was pretty intense. Friend wants me to get the next Call of Duty game, but they're going to have to be disappointed.

Think most my online time is going to be taken up by this soon as its released as its looking superb. All of this was Alpha footage too and a lot of the textures hadnt been added yet and it hasnt been polished but still managed to look and play superb.

Battlefields matches differ so much each time you play that it starts to make CoD look a little predictable and arcade like afterwards and im a CoD fan too and have been since day 1. The scale of the maps, sound effects, teamwork aspect, veichles, destruction and game modes make it the superior product and thats just the tip of the iceberg. Not sure how the single players will match up as Battlefield has never really had a strong one but this might be the one to change that.

As many have said i think CoD will obviously sell more but i think Battlefield 3 will be the better game. I will purchase CoD but for the single player mainly, i cant see it pulling me away from the multiplayer of Battlefield 3 to put much time into its own multiplayer.
