Gaming and Tech – CoD vs. Battlefield
You would be hard pressed to find a gamer who
hasn’t at some point been asked to choose between
Call of Duty and Battlefield.
Indeed these are now the two largest franchises in
the world of first person shooter games, having
BY:TARRIN SKEEPERS
taken over from the industry grandfather Medal of
Honor.
In all honesty making people choose between these
franchises is like making them choose between PSL
teams. Everyone has their favorite and it’s unlikely
that anything you say will change that. With that
being said, I have been a fan of CoD since the early
days of the PS2 but my dabbles with Battlefield on
PS3 really made me think.
While it is tough to compare the franchises in their
entirety, I will admit that CoD had the upper hand
in the beginning but Battlefield took the lead in
the age of the next generation consoles. The
addition of dynamic maps and the overall
presentation and precision of battlefield on PS3
stands out for me, and CoD, though they try, fall
just a bit short in general.
The rivalry was ignited when both franchises
released their latest editions earlier in 2016.
