EA's Frank Gibeau has said he takes every failed game to heart, but that the Battlefield 3 versus Call of Duty cat fight will be "fun".

"As far as the Battlefield 3 versus Call of Duty battle this fall, this going to be fun," the EA Games label head told Industry Gamers.

"We have a stunning game built on a brand new engine that will leap frog us forward in the FPS category."

"Of course I take it personally. Launching a game is like opening day of a movie you produced, or walking to the mound in the World Series,"
