Dear COD,

I'm sorry, it's not you, it's me. I just want [I][B]more[/B][/I]. Sure, we had some good times. But times change, and so do people.

Peace,

- Mooby

it is funny how a lot of yo uguys are dumping on COD when a lot of the stuff yo uare looking for is in Halo. Halo is a great game, a lot more challenging then COD.

Halo blows. Sorry it just does.

Thanks but I already found what I was looking for.... Battlefield is where it's at.

IT just frustrates you thus you think it blows.

Nothing frustrating about it, just not into the sci-fi type of shooter. I've really tried to like it, just not my bag.

Anybody up for an arousing game of Pac-Man? Anybody?

i have never played the campaign none of them, I have no idea about the story line.

But the multiplayer is pretty spot on and offers IMO a real challenge. not to say COD is a walk in the park.

I am with you on the SCI-FI crap as well.

Haven't run into those yet, but it's nice to at least get an answer. All the COD4 Hack searches on Google led me to how to sites.

As for Battlefield 3. No one should be surprised. EA gave Dice studios a huge budget for a modern FPS and basically said "beat Modern Warfare."

[quote]The reported budget for the Battlefield 3 marketing/advertising campaign is $100 million, which sounds like a huge amount but taken into perspective it’s going to take some serious backing to knock Call of Duty of the top spot.

Keep in mind sales of MW2 were $400 million on the first day alone so $100 million marketing budget is nothing in light of the big picture. Be curious to see what they were spending on actual production. Though if MW2 is any indication it's about half the marketing budget.

Nah. I'm all about military fps, not alien fps. I tried to like it, but again, military > alien.

I know it's not a big title amongst most of you all, but FIFA 12 is released today. Cannot wait.
