Call of Duty: Ghosts vs. Battlefield 4: Ghosts Named PS4 Best-Selling Game; Patched in Wii U; BF4 PC Patched
It seems that Call of Duty: Ghosts may win another round against Battlefield 4, now that it has been named PS4's best-selling game.
Call of Duty: Ghosts has brought its popularity from the current gen to the next-gen consoles, and the numbers for November gathered by Sony seemed to point to this face. Activision's franchise takes the cake for the top 20 games with digital upgrades, though it is closely followed by Battlefield 4 at second place.
And for games listed for the PS4 without digital upgrades, Battlefield overtakes Call of Duty: Ghosts at the third spot, as the latter is in the sixth. What do you think of the rankings? Do they reflect the actual experience in the game?

Battlefield 4 PC patch detailed
The patches are finally coming for Battlefield 4, as this time, the patch notes have been released for the PC version of the game.
Following the delayed release of the PS4 patch, the PC patch for Battlefield 4 has a number of fixes, which have been listed on Battlefield.com. Some of the issues fixed includes increasing the camera height when moving and crouching to reflect the height of the soldier, fixing the most frequently occurring client crashes, fixing broken collision on containers with open doors, and fixing a bug in Defuse mode.

The Battlefield 4 PC patch also aims to fix side gunner jitter, miscellaneous stability related to crashes, broken aiming for those riding the China Rising dirt bike, frae drops when shooting at large Levolution objects, bugs in sounds, and bugs in double save during multiplayer round transition to fix corrupted save files.
The patch comes after reports of EA's stocks tanking at 8.28%. Forbes adds that this can be a reaction to the problems with one of EA's biggest games and the fact that some projects are on hold.
Hopefully, the rollout of patches and continuing of DLCs for Battlefield 4 will help bring up the game's popularity once more, and put EA and DICE back in positive light.
