[QUOTE="jonnyt61"]It is being milked, yes. And while it isn't the "same game" there have been minimal amount of changes. Different graphics don't equal adequate changes, in my opinion.Cherokee_Jack
Where did I mention graphics? I don't see a large graphical improvement, to be honest, nor was I looking for one. The gameplay additions are small, but I feel they justify my purchase.
You also do realize that CoD has had a new game every year, so why don't you feel it's too much for CoD to have a new game each year?jonnyt61
I do feel that 1 CoD per year is too much (hence why I said that Activision is milking the series), but that doesn't stop me from wanting to buy the game. It isn't the ideal method for developing the series, but that doesn't make the games worthless to me.
Finally, the only reason I came in this thread, is because I believe the series is massively over-rated now, and the whole "GOTY!!" in the thread title deserved a response. It was your choice to respond to me, and it isn't my fault you used a poor excuse for it never seeming to change.jonnyt61
I didn't claim to provide an excuse for that. I simply explained as an example why I, for one, am interested in playing the game despite it not being significantly different from earlier CoD games.
Oh, I don't think there's anything wrong with using the smiley face. Sarcasm will be met with sarcasm.jonnyt61
What sarcasm were you responding to in your first post?
Also, I'd like to know where on earth I insulted anyone? In fact, you're the first one to launch a personal attack, with your obvious attempt at belittling me for using an emote, so please, do tell me why I'm the one insulting people?jonnyt61
Let me quote your initial post, which was the one I referred to:
Ooo, I wonder whether it'll be the exact same, outside of the graphics they use. It's fun playing the same game for 3 years :)jonnyt61
Here you seem to be mocking the people excited about MW 2 and implying that they are blind to the stagnation of the series; the smiley doesn't look sarcastic so much as condescending. I may be taking this the wrong way, but I really can't think of any other way to interpret it.
By graphics, I mean the actual setting. I've also never questioned whether anyones purchase of the title is justified.
Again, I've never said it should be worthless to anyone. I expressed why -I- don't feel the series is worth the praise it has.
You're entitled to be interested in the series still. Just as I am entitled to offer an opinion on it seeming to be the exact same formula in different clothing.
The sarcasm I was referring to your post about my use of the emoticon. I used a somewhat sarcastic remark in response.
Well, to be completely honest, I think you have taken it wrong. I wasn't aiming my initial post at anyone, it was instead aimed at a game that I don't feel deseveres any of the praise it recieves because of it's reliance on the same formula with an annual release.
It seems you have taken a lot of my points in to the context of me aiming them at you, or specific people, when in fact, that isn't the case. I'm aiming them solely at the game, and therefore, don't question whether you, or anyone else enjoys the series, but instead why I don't.
