I rarely buy or play shooters. When my cousin asked if I could give him a ride to EB Games I jumped to it, i needed to get GOWIII which I was anticipating for far too long. I bought it and while waiting for my cousin to get Bad Company 2 I just bought the game on impulse which I almost never do.
I've logged lots of hours in the one week I've had it already, getting to rank 10 fairly quickly. I've only played one campaign mission because I'm just too hooked with the online components. Maps are great and decently balanced and the engineer class is suited just for me, I'm able to take out heavy vehicles while still being able to engage in close quarters combat to get to those objectives on Rush mode.
As for GOWIII, I haven't even played it all that much which is wierd. I'm maybe 4-5 hours into the game although I'm getting a strange desire to get back to it as I write this.
