Advanced War-meh, amirite? No, you’re not. Shut up and sit down.
Call of Duty versus Battlefield might be the Greatest Showdown of All Time in the eyes of bean-counters, but the last few annual spats have proven distinctly lacking in shazam. In 2013, we looked on like amused bystanders at a duckfight as Call of Duty: Ghosts pitted its near-future, dog-assisted brand of slightly grubbier heroics against Battlefield 4’s wave physics and Omar off The Wire. It wasn’t a thrilling brawl, though it was much more entertaining than 2011’s no-holds-barred thumb-wrestle between the accomplished but anodyne Battlefield 3 and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3.
