The only problem I have with this competition is that it's sprung purposely. Let me elaborate. Competition between Sony and Microsoft is bound to happen. After all, they're two big console manufacturers competing for a similar market. There's a similar case between Polyphony Digital and Turn 10. Both are developers who make the biggest racing games of their respective publishers. But with Modern Warfare 2 and Battlefield: Bad Company 2, you have 2 games that are fairly unrelated, and are really only competition because DICE won't shut up. They released at 2 very different times, have different styles of gameplay, and have a huge gap in sales and popularity. The only reason they're considered a competitor is because DICE and EA have been hyping them up as that for a while now. And many people (who are generally sheep) are willing to play into this, showing loyalty for an artificial and frankly stupid competition. It's just like the people that play into the consoles wars (which Sony, Nintendo, and Microsoft have so handily made for us). There's nothing wrong with liking BC2 over MW2. They're both different types of games, and both are excellent games. However, seeing people play into this fake competition and be puppets of corporate hype really annoys me. |

I've been starting this competition before the PS3 beta even came out =P
Don't imply that I'm a "sheep" I did this out of my own conscious will.
In fact, I've been doing this WAY before DICE even made their first jabs (from my memmory) at IW (Cake doesn't lie and dedicated servers)
