Before everyone gets mad and calls me a heretic, have a look at some gameplay below:

***START DISCLAIMER***
I know I seem to get hyped at every title in the world, but the truth is I am just that passionate about gaming and I like the way titles try new things and are able to get people excited, even if they wind up failing. I want more people to feel this hype, whether they get into a game or not.
***END DISCLAIMER***
Giving COD all the shit its deserved over the years is something that comes naturally to all of us (myself incl) but whats happened to our beloved Battlefield of late, and how Hardline is shaping up, means that a few guys will most likely not pick up BF:H. We do not know whats going to happen with the leagues ITO competitive gaming etc... but this has come onto a few guys' radars and I thought we should all take a look at get a discussion going.
I know we love our vehicular combat, but from the looks of BF:H so far, it looks like it may not be a big part of the game. On the other hand, COD:AW looks like an almost arena styled shooter.. Fast paced, double jumps, dodging and some crazy weaponry. I am not saying go and pre-order here guys, because (i know that doesn't work ;) and) its early days and titles should be gauged properly.
I just think that since its a COD, it will most likely have a crazy following, massive community (probably quite tardy, but look at the BF community..), competitive leagues and a fair bit of longevity (1 - 2 years).
I am quite keen to give this a bash, but like I said, will wait and see a bit more. So far, it looks really good. Watch the whole clip and lets get a chat going!
