Hellsvacancy3999d ago (Edited 3999d ago )

The sound FX (as well as other things) REALLY stand out when compared close like that

Makes me wanna go play BF3 now, ill have wait until I get my kids to bed

Gazondaily3999d ago (Edited 3999d ago )

Brilliant video! I actually burst out laughing when it switched to COD and you hear some kid going "GAAAH GAAAH GAAA GAA GAAAH!"

{EDIT} Just saw the window breaking thing.....ah my days........my stomach

Swiggins3999d ago

As funny as that video is, it's hardly a fair comparison.

"Uphill battle"? What uphill battle?

You're deluded if you think Battlefield is 'struggling', and even more so if you think Battlefield 4 has anything to prove to Call of Duty: Ghosts - about which we currently know very little, might I add...

This article couldn't be more subjective if it tried.

ichimaru3999d ago

I think this article it's taking sales wise. quality wise no one in thier healthymindegwould think to pit cod against bf. but they have the edge with frat boys buying 20 mil copies a year... suggestions twice a yr

csreynolds3999d ago

Fair point. In sales, Call of Duty does have the upper hand. But whatever the angle, this article seems to be pitting two unreleased titles against each other - assuming that Battlefield has already lost.

To say Call of Duty will topple Battlefield by default is both biased and naive, especially considering how many players have ditched Black Ops II in recent months.

ichimaru3999d ago

couldn't have put it any better

caseh3999d ago

CoD: Ghosts isn't due out for another 6-7 months yet...expect an article like this at least once a day until then...just like GTA5 *yawn* '137 reasons this will be the best GTA EVAR!'

trenso13999d ago

it going to be 2011 all over again with these articles.

sovietsoldier3999d ago (Edited 3999d ago )

think this is bad wait till the new consoles come out.

trenso13999d ago

yea its going to pretty boring with the same generic "5 reasons why x console is better/suck" articles

Battlefield 1, Hardline, BF4 Servers Are Being Taken Offline by Cheaters; EA Silent on Issue

Cheaters & hackers have been causing grief on Battlefield 1, Hardline & BF4 servers, with nonstop DDoS attacks among other things. Unfortunately, EA has remained silent about it.

-Foxtrot753d ago

Course they are silent, they are hoping people flock to 2042

gamesftw250752d ago

Maybe it was a inside job then haha.

jeromeface751d ago

wouldnt be the first time, titanfall 1+2 anyone?

PapaBop752d ago

Not even if they paid me.. EA always do this with old games with less money potential, if this was Ultimate Team, they'd address and sort it faster than stories could spread. Why invest time in their products when they will just dump it in the following years? Then again EA never could see the forest for the trees.

Inverno752d ago

I imagine after those games were given out for free a couple months back through Amazon, anything that makes people go to 2042 is a plus for them

XiNatsuDragnel753d ago

They want people to go on 2042. My theory

excaliburps752d ago

Nah. I think they can't do anything about it or they want to sink money into fixing it.

Pudge102888752d ago (Edited 752d ago )

EA owns all BF servers so yes, they can do something about it but they refuse to because they dont want ppl playing their old games instead of the new one. Its EA we’re talking about here

pr33k33752d ago

if this happened in 2042, they'd have something to say. which is weird, considering battlefield 1 has more players on steam right now.

Pudge102888752d ago

Its so obvious that EA is doing this or hired ppl to mess up the games so that we’d be forced to have just 1 Battlefield working.

FPS_D3TH752d ago

Honestly it’s probably the devs themselves. They did an update to bf4 way back that kinda made assault rifles doo doo in hopes that people would flock to BF1 cuz BF4 was too perfect

There's a bunch of great shooters on gamepass; both legacy and new.

A recommendation I have is a work in progress preview title called Anacrusis. It's a lot of fun, and has a cool aesthetic.

All Call of Duty Games Ranked from Worst to Best

BLG writes: "Call of Duty has to be the most recognizable franchise on the planet. They didn’t get that way by only making a handful of games.

COD has a long and storied career. Launching as a PC WW2 first-person shooter, Call of Duty has gone through numerous makeovers and been on just about every system. The series has gone through some serious highs and tragic lows. I’ll be looking at each Call of Duty game, the good the bad, and the ugly."

Vanguard better be at the fkn bottom. Can’t believe ppl haven’t eviscerated that game with all its lacking

Minimoth793d ago

Yeah, it's close to the bottom. There are a couple of worse ones. Infinite Warfare definitely deserves its place.

KyRo793d ago

There's a number a lot worse than Vangaurd. It's also a lot better than that car crash Treyarch released before it.

XbladeTeddy793d ago

World at War is my favourite. Didn't know the N-Gage had a Call of Duty.

MadLad792d ago

Same for me.
I was never huge into Call of Duty, but I sunk a lot of time into WaW.
Both the campaign and the multiplayer are on point. Wouldn't mind a remaster.

I quit on CoD for a long while. Though I'm the odd man out that actually really enjoyed the campaign for WWII, being I got it through Humble monthly way back when.

TheLigX793d ago

I really enjoyed the Infinite campaign. Multiplayer... not so much.

Yppupdam793d ago

I agree, The Infinite campaign feels more like it's own thing that they slapped the CoD name on. If it stood on it's own, (sans the CoD name) I think it could have been it's own scifi franchise. And a damn good looking game, to boot. I never bothered to play the multiplayer.

victorMaje793d ago

MW 2019 apart from the desastrous file sizes is way better than AW.

MadLad792d ago

That was one I grabbed for Playstation because it pretty much just came out during the Redbox purge of videogames, and I got it for dirt cheap.

It was great coming home to an update every night, and watching one game eat up almost half my console's memory.

Amplitude793d ago (Edited 793d ago )

Will get disagrees but Infinite Warfare campaign was really good. Decent story, set pieces were amazing and if it didn't have the CoD game on it I'm sure people would have been more into it. Advanced Warfare was alright too. Titanfall 2 was just 1000 times better than both but I enjoyed them for their campaigns. I literally barely gaf about the story I'm in it for the set pieces and 5 hours of being stoned watching cool nonsense happen if I'm in the mood to play a CoD campaign. If I'm looking for a deep plot I'm gonna go somewhere else.
Ghosts was the worst story-wise though lol that cliffhanger ending was so bs.

Also MW 2019 was sick and is one of the best CoD games in yeeeears not sure why it's so low on this dude's list. Campaign was great, multiplayer was great and Warzone was fun for a while. Over it now but shrugs.

Beat the Vanguard campaign too but I can't even remember a single thing about it other than that it felt like it was 45 minutes long. Might be the most forgettable thing I've ever played lol just fully erased from my brain
