#7 Battlefield 1942
How the Battlefield series has lost its way. The newest entry, Hardline, has not been well loved at all, and most agree that the series has been on a downward trajectory since Bad Company 2. One thing it has improved, though, are its looks. Battlefield 4 is a bit heavy on the post-processing effects (okay, I don’t need vignetting, motion blur, lens flare, blood on my visor, and rain obscuring my vision guys), but all in all, the Frostbite engine can handle some seriously complex scenes and gorgeous effects. Dragon Age: Inquisition used it, and whatever else you might say about that game, it’s pretty.
So why not bring the fan favorite, Battlefield 1942 into the current gen? It’s certainly nothing DICE’s Frostbite engine can’t handle, and let’s be honest, 1942 looks positively quaint at this point. Skip the silly added stuff from the modern Battlefield titles and let’s have new models, new animations, and modernized maps. EA would have fans lining up to send them thank-you notes for this.
