People that are bad at call of duty, hate it. End of story.-Rinder-

I do admit to trying very hard to hate Call Of Duty

But MW1 was just awesome. MW2, while severly over-hyped, was a decent follow up(single player wise) but the multi-player was just a flop in my opinion.

Now, with Black Ops, It seems like they have a very interesting time to set the story in (cold war era is pretty interesting IMHO) and it looks like they have tweaked the multi player with a few modes that insist on skill to win, not just the ability to unlock a sniper rifle and find a good hiding spot.

What's wrong with treyarch trying to grab a little of MW2's selling power? After all, the only reason MW2 sold so well was because MW1 was truely epic.

So if Black Ops sells well, and is still a fun game, what's the problem?

Like I say, i really try to hate call of duty. I hate that we get an average game at an extortionate price every year, i hate that we get extortionate DLC prices (delayed, but still priced stupidly on PS3) but you have to admit that the short time you are playing the SP, you are completely engrossed.

Roll on Black ops is all i'm saying.

Can't wait

Its funny how someone who dislikes all COD games is hanging around a COD forum, that saddens me.......

They're both terrible games and it saddens me that people purchase them.

By that logic (which I hear very often) we should judge games solely on sales. So MW2 would be the greatest game ever made.

What games do you loath? What if they sold exceptionably well like Mw2, would that mean they deserve it? Can someone at least explain to me why MW2 is so great? I spent $60 just like everyone else, I loved Cod 4 like everyone else, and I was sadden like most people when MW2 came out.

Short, poorly written campaign, and MW2 was also the only game I was interested in the online, but I wont let the terrible online judge how I feel on the campaign alone. Again my opinion, and do not tell me hating COD is a trend, maybe it is just really that poor of a game?(not directed towards you in general Guracy, just most people say it's cool to hate cod)

I don't see Black Ops outselling MW2 at all. All of my friends who played MW2 (even the ones who love it) are not getting Black Ops. Activision is a horrid company and they aren't seeing a penny of my money for this crap series. I also do not relate game sales to how great a game is. Just because more people like it doesn't make it better than a less recognized game. Give me Demon's Souls or Uncharted 2 over MW2 or any COD game any day.

Wow!

So you took a point that i was trying to make about how i'm hoping to enjoy this new Call of Duty and attacked an example of online play that just bugs me.

I could have mentioned 20 other ways that COD online pisses me off. But i was trying to argue that COD:BO will be better than the previous couple of games.

..

It is pedantic nit-picking like that, that makes the general community hate Call Of Duty fanboys.

do you actually think anyone can read that yellow font? are you trying to blind me?

Im really looking forward to Black Ops. Seeing I thought the Online in MW2 sucked. It was like IW was trying to do to much, but I dont know that just my opinion, and will see how Black Ops turns out. The real question though is how the next COD will turn out with Sledgehammer behind the developing.
