Modern Warfare 3 Dev Tried To Manipulate MetaCritic’s Score, Got Flamed By His Fans

And after Telltale, here comes Sledgehammer in an attempt to manipulate the MetaCritic score of Modern Warfare 3. What’s even funnier here though is that Glen Schofield, the general manager of Sledgehammer Games, tweeted and prompted the game’s fan to post great scores for Modern Warfare 3. So, instead of doing it himself, he kindly asked his fans and followers to do his dirty work. That’s hilarious and shows that everyone is so obsessed with a game’s score, even though that particular game sells like hot cakes.

Battlefield 3 vs Modern Warfare 3 Graphics Comparison

YouTube user ‘RiseDarthVader’ posted a great comparison between Battlefield 3 and Modern Warfare 3. Both of these games are running with max details at 1080p and we can clearly notice that Modern Warfare 2 features better scripted-events. In addition, although both of them feature scripted destruction, Modern Warfare 3 has more ‘in-your-face’ destruction that – ironically – looks better than BF3’s Frostbite 2.0 effects. On the other hand, the lighting is way better in BF3, as well as the general image quality. Enjoy the comparison after the jump!
