2 stars "$130 DLC"

You're pretty much buying a MW2 patch, with little to no innovation. It's just Activision showing more games down your throat for money.

The game is no doubt good, it's all the core gameplay that we love, but it really is just a bad excuse to pay more money.

4 stars "Poor Infinity Ward"

Battlefield 3 has been under development for around and above of 4 years. Infinity makes a not so great CoD every 2 years because of their horned, fork tongued, fire breathing developer Activision, whose sole aim is to bi-annually snatch $130 from every greasy faced, buck toothed 12 year old in existence.

If you were told to make a blockbuster game in under two years, with an intense multiplayer while also adhering to beck and call of every fan on the planet, you'd be making a few mistakes too. The graphics are crap because frankly there is no time in 2 years to write code for another engine. Why do you think EA gave the Sweden DICE team twice as long to make BF3– Dont blame Infinity ward, feel sorry for them.

This game looks exactly the same as its predecesor because they realised how unbalanced MW2 was and have spent most of their time and money on fixing this (thanks to Activition's ge­nerosity… not!) by making the game more complex, they have made it harder to balance, CoD4 is good because its simple.

For only 2 years in development and limited/inexpe­rienced staff (remember the lawsuit Activision put up involving the postponment of DLC by Infinity's di­rectors to help DICE get BBC2 of the ground-) this game will still be awesomely entertaining and do an adequate job of living up to the franchise. As long as your expectations are reasonable.

"Probably a rushed re-skin with nothing new"

Here we go again..... Another cheap copy of the same game which Activision has been churning out for the last 4 years. Sure we might get a couple of new overpowered killstreaks and perks and maybe even a stupidly overpowered weapon that was not thought through at all (Model 1887's, UMP45, MP40, AK74U, FAMAS etc) but in reality it is virtually the exact same game we bought last year, and the year before that, and the year before that… I'm sure it will be a decent game but I for one refuse to pay full retail price (and a bit more) for what is essentially an expansion pack for MW2. Maybe i'll rent it and see what its like but I will not get sucked into giving Activision another cent until I see what I am paying for. I'm not that stupid. The question is, are you-

Oh and @Nikko, how can you possibly give a 9.5/10 rating to a game which hasn't even been released yet- writing that makes your whole comment bias and also, BFBC2 won awards for its audio. If you insist on insulting other games and sending hate messages, get your facts right and find a better place to do it than the ‘preview’ section of an online store.

3 stars "Overpriced Update"

Call of Duty has always had a fantastic single player. But to be honest the only reason most people buy this game is for the online multiplayer. From what I can see, they have overhauled the multiplayer, adding in new features and weapon evolution systems. With most other games, small updates like this would be free DLC. However because this is the Call of Duty franchise they can charge $130 for the same game with a few improved features. They can do this because they are Activision and they know how the consumer's brain works. It's a real shame to see so many people throw their money at this ridiculously overpriced game.

My partner works in retail, and she has said that the majority of pre-orders for this game are mothers buying the game for their underaged son so that they can ‘fit in’. It's a real shame that a once great franchise has become nothing more than a fad.
