Take the plunge and get BF3!
I'll admit that for the first couple of hours every fibre of my being wanted to abandon BF3 and play Black Ops, but if you bare with it it'll suddenly click and then it's fantastic, loving it at the moment :)

My copy of MW3 is downloading as we speak, my new hosues internet is not as fast as the old ones :( got a discount code for steam so i only paid £19 for it, which leaves me enough to buy Battlefield AND Skyrim :D which should i play first though?
Funniest comment so far was by my cousin...and I quote (swears removed)
"I can't believe I queued up at midnight to get a **** version of COD!! I wasted so much on this when I should have gotten BF3 all along. ****ing Activision ruining games. The maps aren't even that great, they are just rehashes of old maps and nothing else is new"
He is a die hard COD fan...and I mean literally die hard....he has bought all the top versions of the games (with the remote control car, night vision goggles, the works).
Im thinking of trading it in for battlefield 3
I would :D lol
Steam won't let me refund it!
I'm appauled by MW3, it's just a plain lazy attempt at keeping the console kids happy which inevitably it will fail at as well.
the quickscope "cheating" needs to be stopped!!!!!
It's awful, my 13 year old cousin spends every spare moment he has playing CoD - he's gone and bought BF3 now too. It's obviously an attempt at churning out the same old same old, most likely because IW walked out on it and they didn't know what to do (there's a noticeable difference between IW's CoDs, I've always preferred them)
Yeah that's infuriating, as is the random hit box. It seems to me (has always been the way in CoD but seems even worse in this one) that it tries to mask any lag by filling in the gaps because quite often you'll be shooting somebody then they'll shoot and kill you, when you watch the replay it looks as though you never fired a shot.
You haters :) I will stick with COD till the end...sounds like I will be the only one though. To be fair it is pretty much the same game but I still enjoy it, Will be giving Battlefield 3 a try though.
BF3 is annoying on the PC launching through a damn web browser though. And that stupid Origin crap!!
This is why I enjoy my console much more. Fine the gfx aren't as good as pc, but no additional rubbish to install and enjoyable gameplay.
I find the launching of the PC version of BF3 far better than waiting upto 5 minutes to get into a COD game without dedicated servers as it sits there waiting to find "the best host". Thats why MW2 was the last COD game I purchased.
Black ops was good until I got 4th prestige. I stopped literally then and there and haven't touched a cod game since apart from mw2 just to try and finish spec ops. Mw2 was the best out of the series, but battlefield absolutely spanks it. Lots of cod fans even admitted it!
