In this episode of the Lifestyle, Travel & Technology podcast, the host Alexander, Garry and Nikky talk about their thoughts on the two titans of the “First person-shooter” video game genre “Call of Duty” and “Battlefield”. For those of you who don’t know, hardcore fans of each franchise believe the game they play is superior over the other. 

The hosts had their fair share of game time with both franchises and discuss the history of them, which game of the series they played the most and what they think are the good and the bad aspects of the booth games.

They also compare both franchises to other IP’s such as “Fortnite” and “Playerunknown’s Battlegrounds”, also known as “PUBG”, and brush up on the “Battle Royal” game mode that has taken over the video game industry but is slowly fading out.
