MW3 vs BF3 vs Skyrim

Bit-Tech discuss whether Battlefield 3 or Modern Warfare 3 is the better game but it’s all pointless because everyone knows Skyrim is the best game at the moment.

The entire military FPS genre is played out.

JonahNL4534d ago

Since when are we comparing shooters to an RPG?

*sigh*

morganfell4534d ago

Since one of the best new RPGs decided to drop the best parts of the game and become a run of the mill Third Person Shooter.

xPhearR3dx4534d ago

whaaa???? lol what are u talking about??

Balcrist4534d ago

I believe he's refuring to Mass Effect 3 and its co-op mode and multi-player..

Balcrist4534d ago

You must be new here, or don't read articles often... I can think of three or for different articles from here in the past month that has not only compared RPGs and FPS's, but mw3 and Skyrim specifically... aint no one happy about it, but they keep putin it out anyways... I must've seen "comparing apples and oranges" at least 50 times...

Skip_Bayless4534d ago

IF..., big if. If Modern Warfare 3 was the first COD that came out this generation then Modern Warfare 3 would be the best game of the three. If you compare the features, replay value, and technicalities then Modern Warfare 3 is considerably greater experience. But since there have been five COD games this generation, Modern Warfare 3 is not giving us anything particularly new and therefore Skyrim is the best of the three.

Hassassin4534d ago

actually if MW3 was really the first it would be the worst of the three.
COD is nothing without it's fan-base. The only reason it sells so much is because of a snowball effect on it's online player base.

What´s next?

Mario vs Manhunt vs Gran Turismo

MysticStrummer4534d ago

It's pointless because different people like different games. I lost interest in CoD after W@W, but my little brothers buy it every damn year. I bought BF3, but got tired of it in about two weeks and went back to MAG. I doubt I'll bother downloading the free map pack. I'm loving Skyrim, but I'd put Dark Souls above it as Game of the Year. All my opinions only. I guess I should start a website and pretend to be a journalist.

Call of Duty Players Disappointed by $80 B.E.A.S.T. Glove Bundle Deal

Recently, players of Modern Warfare 3 and Warzone were met with a new bundle featuring the B.E.A.S.T. Glove, inspired by King Kong's armament in the Godzilla x Kong movie. However, the $80 price tag attached to this themed accessory left many Call of Duty fans feeling underwhelmed.

Morons that allow themselves to be milked continuously by this company is the definition of irony.
Spend more $$ and you'll end up In easier lobbies so you win both ways when ya spend that cash

Controversy in the COD community feels like it happens within an alternate timeline. Activision will take the piss with something, there will be a momentary fuss about it, and then they will forget about it and carry on anyway. Repeat this cycle literally every year for the rest of time.

They call that a crack head! Thats what this is really about, its an addiction. People who dont smoke cigarettes look and laugh at the addicts that spend $8-$10 a pack, but they cant help themselves, they are addicted. That same analogy applies perfectly to the whole MT industry. Only an addict that was not thinking clearly would spend this kind of money on something so frivolous. A round of multiplayer provides the same high a person gets from scratching a lotto ticket, or putting money on a sports bet. MT in general need to really be regulated because you have a generation of kids becoming adults who grew up only knowing the MT era of gaming. Its normal to them and they will in turn teach their kids the same by just being a gaming parent and getting their kids involved with them in gaming. Thats why no matter how ridiculous the headlines keep getting out of the MT industry, it never seems to fade or go away.

I'm so tired of hearing about what they're doing with this game, its never going to change and it's never going to value the consumer over money, furthermore the people who engage so heavily in the microtransactions I guess allegedly are having a blast and can't wait to do it some more this year when the new version of the game drops.

I'm Replaying Skyrim (again), and So Should You

Replaying Skyrim after 13 years is a reminder of the progress made in western RPGs over the last decade, but also what's been lost.

anast14d ago

I tried, but it's a poorly made game that insults its customers.

lucian22914d ago

nah, only mods make it decent, and even then it's bad, and this is after i modded for at least 3 years

Nittdarko14d ago

Funnily enough, I'm about to play it for the first time in VR with 1000 mods to make the game playable, as is the Bethesda way

RPGs are often huge, sprawling endeavours. With limited playtime, we have to choose wisely, so here's the best western RPGs available today.

SimpleSlave14d ago

"I started playing games yesterday" the List... Meh!

How about a few RPGs that deserve some love instead?
1 - Alpha Protocol - Now on GOG
2 - else Heart.Break()
3 - Shadowrun Trilogy
4 - Wasteland 2
5 - UnderRail
6 - Tyranny
7 - Torment: Tides of Numenera

And for a bonus game that flew under the radar:
8 - Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden

Loved Alpha Protocol in all it's glorious jank. Great game.

SimpleSlave14d ago (Edited 14d ago )

Not only glorious jank, but the idea that the story can completely change depending on what you do, or say, or side with, makes it one of the most forward thinking games ever. The amount of story permutation is the equivalent of a Hitman level but in Story Form. And it wasn't just that the story changed, no, it was that you met completely new characters, or missed them, depending on your choices. Made Mass Effect feel static in comparison.

Alpha Protocol was absolutely glorious, indeed. And it was, and still is, more Next Gen than most anything out there these days. In this regard at least.

Pity.
