Maroon 5 is awesome. Deal with it.

Only good battlefield game was 1942.

Halo wins by default.

Good job. You didn't turn on "vote for more than one option."

Remember Elk

Planetside 2, it is actually pretty balanced.

-edit-
also it is fun.

-edit2-
and it is free.

-edit3-
and people cooperate for the most part.

-edit4-
and you are properly rewarded for playing the objective.

-edit5-
and there are no fighting over vehicles.

-edit6-
and you always get to play on your favourite map.

-edit7-
made a small mistake in edit 6.

Country: United States.
State: Pennsylvania.
County: Warren.
I graduated from high school on June-11-2011. I'm 19 right now. I'm turning 20 in December. I like playing video games, and board games. I like reading Sci-Fi, and World War II novels, and what not.

"There is nothing better in the world than being better at a video game than someone else....oh wait"

Battlefield any day. Halo just got too repetitive, stale and boring for me. Battlefield is a lot funnier because of the large scale battles.

Guns: Battlefield.
Game play: Battlefield.
Graphics: Halo 4.
Popularity: Battlefield easily wins this because it's on more than one system.

I thought BF 1943 was better.

Battlefield 3.

Halo has just lost its appeal for me. Tries to cater for everyone, and fails.

You could argue Battlefield does that to? But I'm still going for Battlefield over Halo 4.

A competitive players main goal is to win.
A casuals main goal is to have fun regardless of whether that results in a win or loss.
It has nothing to do with individual skill or knowledge, it has to do with the reason you play.

Battlefield 3 > Halo 4
Halo 3 > Battlefield 3

Right now, I'll pick Battlefield 3. Halo 4's broken matchmaking made me not want to play it until 343i fixes it.

You could argue, easily. DICE's constant messing with guns is getting quite tiresome, but they've managed to keep it pretty balanced so far and no actual gamebreakers have occurred in name of "balance".

Crossbow is awesome, but I hate how it was brought in to put the ".50 cal" for bad snipers who complained that being a sniper is impossible in BF3.

I was more looking at the inclusion of map packs which are infantry based only and how this seems to be catering to the fans EA managed to pull away from Call of Duty.

I haven't had a chance to play the new DLC, doesn't really look that great though. Does it work like a sniper?

On that point, I sort of agree. I am not sure if Close Quarters map pack was made to bring in the new faster paced, completely not-needed game mode, or just to lure in Call Of Duty players, either way, DICE -blam!-ed that one up. They would've been a lot better off making small conquest/rush maps like Operation Metro, Seine Crossing and Grand Bazaar, since those are popular infantry maps. Maps like those would've added depth to map rotation on servers, because they would've worked as 24v24 instead of being CQC exclusive.

As for Armored Kill, it was bound to fail on consoles, maps are ok on Rush, but borefest on consoles, unless you're huge fan of big vehicle maps, I personally find the best maps to have good infantry/vehicle balance.

As for Aftermath, I have BF3 on Xbox, but I've played a bit on PS3 at my friend's house. The maps are brilliant, Scavenger game mode is fun, and the crossbow is powerful, I think it isn't "easy mode" though, I think I can call myself a "good sniper", so I had no trouble using the thing at longer ranges. I got randomly killed by it every now and then, but most of the time I had no trouble taking out people using it unless they got me in middle of firefight or I wasn't aware of them.
Aftermath is the best DLC so far, it feels so much fun after 2 DLCs that I personally didn't like.
