I'm looking to buy a new FPS, Battlefield 3 Premium and Black Ops 2 is on sell this week. Which one of them is the better buy?

Battlefield 3 is my personal favorite. while neither has a great singleplayer story, both have great multiplayer and also have coop. Now i would choose Battlefield 3 because it has better graphics, more realistic, better mechanics and overall more fun. Blops has a more arcade feel over it. But it also depends on what you prefer

Well i played Blops 1 and MW 1 and 2, i just think the series hasn't changed much Battlefield 3 has something new to offer in my opinion. COD is addicting, but so is Battlefield and i think it's more original and more fun to play all around

Black Ops 2, it has the best single player campaign of any fps I've ever played. The graphics to me are pretty much the same, both are decent and gun sounds are great on both too. Although Black Ops 2 is a sequel it's the first COD title to feature future technology and the first to present branching storylines made by player choice. These come in the form of Strike force missions where you can control unmanned aerial vehicles and robots and soldiers on a large map, another first for the series.

It also offers a 3D display option and is the first in the series to feature multiple endings. Although it's the third time zombies mode appears it's the first time to have differing modes other than simply survival mode. Changes to MP include multi team games with 3 or more teams of players and changes to 'Create a class' offering more customization options than before, plus there's a mode that pair players up based on their skill.

Players are now rewarded for contributing to the team via shooting enemies, capturing territory, destroying enemy equipment rather than just killing the enemy.

There is also the ability to live stream straight to Youtube, sure theres still campers and the odd bit of lag online like other fps games but anyone saying it's more of the same and nothings changed obviously hasn't played the game. It's certainly made more changes than Battlefield 3 did anyway, the same could be said about Battlefield 3 just being more of the same. Although I still prefer Killzone 2 over either fps, I gave Black Ops 2 an 8/10 as it has it's issues but it's still a solid fps title with a lot to offer.

It's easy:

Do you want a big variety of strategic opportunities / options, more team & class based, varied set of vehicles and planes / helicopters

OR

Do you want fast paced, arcade and smooth shoot em up action

I own both games and like both equally, whenever I feel like Option 1: Battlefield 3, whenever I prefer Option 2: CODBO II

But, to answer your initial thread name question:

A Bus Ticket

If I was I'd be saying it's the perfect game and 10/10 lol, but I was simply pointing out the improvements to the series this title brings. As others have said it does come down to personal preference though as Black Ops 2 is a bit more arcadey and fast paced.

Definitely Battlefield. I recommended it to a friend of mine that only played COD, and he never went back. he loved the game so much that he recommended it to all his friends that only played COD and they never went back either.

Agreed....I don't understand why some people are so much in a rush for the next-gen! It's not like your gonna see a big leap in graphics at the very beginning and the most important thing that alot of people are over-looking....the fact the we will have "LESS" and "LESS" control over next-gen media and that's kinda scary!:|

Battlefield 3 because overall, the graphics are much, much better and the game is much more realistic. For example: say you are on the edge of the roof of a building, but there is a stone ledge in front of you. In COD, shooting at the wall will not do anything. it will make a mark that disappears in 10 seconds. But in BF3, it will slowly chip away at the material until it is destroyed. and then on the inside, you can see all the support beams and stuff. It just goes to show how much more detail was put into BF3. The maps are also much bigger in multiplayer and its more fun. In Call of Duty, the maps are tiny and there are so many more campers!! It is just so annoying. Although COD does have their zombies mode, which is fun, Battlefield has many more advantages. Not that I'm saying the COD is bad or anything, its a good game. It is just my opinion that BF3 is way better.
