You're just telling everyone who disagrees with you to "shut the f- up" - where's the contribution in that? Did the iPhone sell more units than the BlackBerry did when it was first launched? Even if the iPhone was better - it still had to compete against a brand which owned a larger portion of the market. Look at where the iPhone is now. Who's to say that's not going to happen to the Battlefield series over the coming years?

I was never crying in the first place. I was telling everyone to bring up the overused argument that MW3 is simply MW2.5 when they haven't even played the game. Hell, people were claiming such before the game even came out. Obviously I'm going to be frustrated when countless number of fan-boys continue to wine about it because their game isn't on top. I never "cried" because you or others disagree with me. If you could bring up a different argument as to why, then I wouldn't have reacted the way I did.

Yes, I am contributing. If all you have to say is "You're just telling everyone who disagrees with you to 'shut the f- up'", then you completely missed the beginning of my first response. How you managed to not comprehend that, and only the bottom part mentioning my objections, is not surprising considering you trying to prove me wrong here.

I don't know, I haven't looked up the numbers for either phones. Also, can you prove that the iPhone has larger numbers than that of BlackBerry right now? Despite that, I'm fairly sure the BlackBerry vs iPhone numbers were closer than that of MW3 vs BF3.

In case you, or anyone else, is interested in the sales differences:

Quote:

Electronic Arts stated that the title sold 5 million units within the first week of availability, easily becoming its fastest-selling game

Activision claims a mind-boggling 6.5 million sold in US and UK alone in one day. ... Activision claims to have sold 6.5 million copies of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 in 24 hours, making it the most successful entertainment launch of anything, ever.

Selling 1.5 million more units in 24 hours (and that number only includes the United States and United Kingdom, not the rest of Europe, Australia, etc) than BF3 did in a week is a SUBSTANTIAL difference. However, you are right. We'll have to wait and see the differences at time goes by.
