Even with all the growing hate for Modern Warfare 3 in the internet community, it is hard to deny the success of the game.
This article puts the ridiculousness of the war between 2011's biggest shooters to rest by comparing the massive differences between the two.
The article also points out which game wins in a breakdown of categories (the results are unexpected).

Former CEO describes lawsuit filed by Swedish pension fund as a "collateral attack" on Activision Blizzard.
Kotick Made $155 million from MS in the buyout, the little b*tch needs to stop whining. Thanks to this Microslop deal and massive industry consolidation thousands upon thousands of devs and other workers lost their livelihoods. This greedy piggie pervert needs shut up and f-off.

When the dust settles on the $55 billion leveraged buyout of Electronic Arts, Saudi Arabia will be its only true owner, despite a “consortium” of investors being involved in the deal. Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund will control 93 percent of the company, according to filings with Brazil’s antitrust regulator.
Technically speaking, Saudi Arabia and TENCENT can buy the entire USA. ANf Democrat and Republican will not do crap!
its quite ridiculous that they were able to do that. or even allowed to.
but saudis even have their grabby hands in nintendo stocks.
Looking on the bright side, the games may be patched to remove any ideologies that are incompatible for the majority of the world.

Windows Central: "The money may keep rolling in, but Microsoft is the custodian of one of the biggest selling video game series in history. If something doesn't change, I fear we'll reach a breaking point and irreparable damage will have been done."
In my view, they should probably merge MP with Warzone and essentially make it free to play like Halo Infinite. The campaign/zombies mode can be $30 yearly DLC. I know this would be insanity as most COD players essentially pay the full price of the game simply for the MP. However-with a shrinking player base they may have to consider it. Making it free would bring in a ton of players.
To late MW3 should have been a lesson but here we are two years later with a steaming pile a shite called blops7
Nothing lasts forever, eventually something will come along to make people forget about COD
Call of Duty was riding the revenue horse and charts for ~20 years. Whether undeserved or deserved.
But I endorse everyone to remind you that Microsoft could have decided differently when they took it over.
The money was certainly there, and they could have taken their time revamping the franchise:
Current-gen tech, manageable microtransactions, not imitating Fortnite and returning to core values of the franchise's origin.
They didn't.
Let's see next year. Hopefully without the then 13 years old PS4 and One hardware.
well written article, but it's sad that the singleplayer picture of MW3 was actually in COD4. They look so similar you can't tell the difference.
i learned this not only from previous marriages and from gamers...
1. no matter how much you want someone to like something, you cannot force them to like it.
2. even if a something is technically superior, some people will still prefer a technically inferior product because of numerous reasons. ex: friends, used to the controls, ect...
3. there are 2 different gamers, the ones who are informed and the ones who dont know about something until they see it in the store, these people are going to buy into advertisements and most likely will never take someones word for it and never give something else a chance.
At the end of the day, you're getting top notch FPS games. That is all that matters.
MW3 when I want to goof around and just have fun.
BF3 when I want to play a little more seriously, but still leave room for a good laugh.
They both appeal to me, as they should to anybody who is a fan of the FPS genre.
lol, we've been trolled.
I don't hate the COD series, they can be good fun. It's just that I think Battlefield 3 is better in all areas when it comes to the multiplayer. And that's where I spend most of my time with them.
