Get ready for a deep dive into the battle of the biggest AAA first-person shooters this holiday season, where I share my thoughts on Call of Duty Warzone, Battlefield 2042, and the Halo Infinite Campaign. Spoiler alert: not all are created equal! While Halo Infinite impresses with its open-world feel and solid gameplay, Call of Duty seems to be losing its touch, offering a lackluster experience that fails to recapture the magic of Modern Warfare. Battlefield 2042, despite its controversies and performance issues, still manages to deliver some fun, albeit with significant room for improvement. Tune in to discover which game comes out on top, which one is just okay, and what needs to change in the industry for a better gaming experience.
