Say what you will about these two games... but they make some damn good trailers...

BF3


MW3

Now if only they would both adopt some classic America's Army style gameplay.
No respawns, realistic objectives, multiple objectives, OR kill off the enemy entirely.
I miss playing REAL good shooters.
However, Battlefield WILL be mine. LOL

Yep I think BF3 is going to be outstanding graphically and gamelplay-wise. That's a pc purchase for me.

I'll probably get MW3 for the xbox 360 as I've got all the others on that too and for the most part, I like them for the cinematic missions and mp is fun for me for awhile. Then I get bored and irritated with it, then I pick it up again sporadically. But I think their engine is starting to get long in the tooth. Looks like too many death animations have been rehashed. I'll probably enjoy it though for a time.

Yeah, MW3 still has that rendered look. Don't want to go as far as to say cartoony...just not real. But, damn, that Frostbite graphics engine has Battlefield looking incredibly realistic. And , yeah, the BF series is just plain absolute fun , on-line.

BF3 vs MW3 trailers? Is this a battle of the trailers?

They both look great and I’m looking forward to them ... more so with BF3 though since I still play the crap out of BC2 multiplayer. BC2 blows MW2/Black Ops multiplayer right out of the water IMO.

IMO.... BF and MW series are apples and oranges... their both in the fruit class, but 2 different fruits, and I think both can be played and appreciated by fans, and kinda why reading arguments about the 2 series drive me nuts, even with the devolopers...

Both are action shooters, but have a movie like SP experience, and both have a deep MP experience... and both steal ideas from each other...

But the BF series seems to be more of a open, full combat experience that focuses on team work and ground objectives, while the MW series seems to be more of a single player with friends, kill or be killed experience, with most objectives being kill domination... sure it's a team play game but not like the BF series.

If you know what each games purpose and history is, you can decide one is more your style then another, or do what I do... get both, play BF with friends, and MW with server guest... love them both.

i guess there's some kind of appeal to those kinds of trailers, i'm just not seeing it. but then again any attempt to look cool and other puerile, unrealistic things generally don't interest me.

seriously, i'm past the age where other people's opinion of what's cool has zero influence on me.

then why read, watch, and post... if only YOUR opinion matters.

I see many threads and games i disagree with, and you know what i do... go to the next thread of interest WITHOUT posting my worthless, un-needed 2 cents. You should try it sometimes johncage, it's AMAZING.

The only thing about MW3 is that it's the same thing since 2004. It's like an expansion pack they want $60 for.

I know I'm buying BF3 for the 360. Might also buy it for the PC.

I'm a little on the fence about MW3 but I have purchased all pervious versions of the game and liked them all. So, I may well buy this version too. It actually looks better than I expected it to be.
