Weekend Confirmed 84 - Battlefield 3, Uncharted 3, GTA V announced
by Garnett Lee, Oct 28, 2011 11:15am PDTBattlefield 3 blew up across the video game world this week and its shockwaves carried right over to Weekend Confirmed. But believe it or not, BlizzCon momentarily upstages the modern warfare, as Xav, Jeff, Andrea, and Garnett get distracted by pandas in WoW and the latest title to board the DOTA train. This special episode was recorded in the evening and the crew celebrated with beers and bourbon. So buckle up, it gets bumpy from the start. Along the rest of the way there's talk of Uncharted 3 and Dance Central 2, hopes and dreams for Grand Theft Auto V, and, of course, Finishing Moves.

In terms of multiplayer, the Battlefield series has put a huge emphasis on teamwork, everything from the use of vehicles to gradually advancing towards objectives and coordinating with which classes each squad should roll out with. This applies both to attacking and defending.
The Call of Duty series, while can be approached in a tactical method, never really required such an approach. It is possible to have a rewarding experience both for self and for the team, thanks to the inclusion of killstreaks which are rewarded based on individual success.
Considering how multiplayer is the main draw for both games and the different approaches to that, did EA make the right move to incite a rivalry between the 2 franchises, or were they trying to market a game to an audience its not intended for?
