No advocacy, just pure hate for the worlds most overrated, infantile franchise here please . Hail to the Michael Bay of video games. God I hate that game.
Fundamentally they aren't horrible games. But the fact it's the same shit year and year out and zombies buy these games enmasse. Sickens me. Call of Duty fans are like Justin Bieber Fans. All Love, no objectivity and they don't realize the thing they love so much is complete pure and utter ass and that something even better and more amazing is out there. My cousin is about 3 years younger than me we grew up on the old school But any old school style game that comes out now he says sucks. Favorite game right now? COD UGH
Multiplayer has been crap since 4. Story mode has always been awesome (MW2 was a lesser though). Anybody who says 4 was a bad game isn't in there right mind. I agree that it's repetitive post 4 but if you can get it for cheapo(STEAM SALES!) or cheap you should get.
I hate Call of Duty too, as well as all the ripoffs it has spawned like Medal of Honor and Battlefield*. And seriously, a new game every year? Just Tony Hawk already. *Yeah, I know Battlefield was around before CoD (I played 1942 for a while), but the direction it's going now is obviously CoD-"inspired".
I liked MW1 (CoD4) in terms of singleplayer. MW2 pissed me off (the gameplay in general) when I tried it, so I didn't even bother playing it for more than 30 minutes. CoD 1-3 have been amazing FPS though. @7force Both Battlefield and Medal of Honor have been around for much longer than CoD. It's just that there had not been an outstanding Medal of Honor since Frontline so people forget about it. MoH essentially founded the entire WW2-FPS-subgenre.
1 to 3 shit, 4 GOD SEND best multiplayer game ever created for consoles. 5 mer, 6 very good just cant follow 4, 7 dear god shoot me in the faceplease this shit is shit, 8 god why wont this die now.
I want a FPS set in NAM with a 60s soundtrack where you are tripping balls the whole game. THAT would be entertaining. Black ops should have been that.
Number 1.... Decent. Number 2.... Godly! And all of them with 3 and after.... Yawn. As previously stated, these games are decent as stand-alone titles, but when you are a "gamer" you can name at least a hundred titles that can easily trump any COD.
Lol, what? 1 and 2 had an excellent story mode and provided an outstanding multiplayer experience. Some of my best LANs were fought on the battlefields of CoD 1 and UO.
I think ALL "real life" war games are shit. I know a few who play nothing but these games and have the cheek to tell me that I play games for pussies. WTF? According to them, anything that isn't a FPS based in war is for pussies. What a bunch of tossers they are. They have no idea what gaming is about. Yakumo
Alright. Now remember when medal of honor and day of defeat and all these games were popular and suddenly everyone was raving about cod? Then think a bit later, after counter-strike got released, and everyone and their dog went for modern weaponry, special forces and all that? I count at least 10 MODS that wanted to be cs. Then cod came back. with modern warfare. Coincidence? I think not. I don't accuse cod of being a bad game. I accuse it being a game rotten to the core with plagiarism and riding on a wave of teenage wet dreams. Remember all the raving about how mw2 was so offensive with the no Russian campaign? It's not that that mission was offensive. It's just that it was showing off just how infinity ward was trying way too hard. Also, has anyone else actually ever played multiplayer on it and NOT been yelled at my an angry 13 year old American kid? I rest my case.
I hate anti-trend-followers as much as I hate trend-followers. The game series is good, just as Madden is good and Mario is good. It's the same shit every time, but the games work a successful formula and are fun to play. There are few games that have given me as many jaw dropping moments as CoD4 and up. My only complaint is they are a bit too short.
Well I think it's time to stop comparing which ones you like and which ones you don't, and return to what this post was conceived for originally. Haters be hatin'
