Over my short time period of owning an Xbox 360 I have been asked by both friends and people I hardly know about whether I own a Call of Duty. I honestly haven't had much experience with the nex-gen COD's. But back in the day when there was Call of Duty, Call of Duty 2 The Big Red One, and Call of Duty 3. I was super psyched. I loved those games, the action, graphics. Overall fun level was top notch. I love the WWII setting, always have as that time period greatly interests me. Though I have never played World at War, I do want too.
No when it comes to Cod 4 and the Modern Warfare series, it's a bust for me. (Give me time to prepare against the onslaught of Call Of Duty fanboys and girls desperate to defend their most honoured game...) Okay I'm ready, throw your insults. First off I love Call of Duty 4, but Mw2 feel like a DLC with updated graphics to COD4, and MW3 seems like ANOTHER DLC for MW2. So really it seems like just one big DLC. I do not feel like the games are different enough to earn it's fame that it currently has. Don't get me wrong I like the games and I think they are fun, but ugh. It's just one big complicated mess.
Oh god this is when people really get mad. I love Call of Duty Black Ops and I can't wait for COD Black Ops 2. I said it. I just feel like Black Ops was a very good change in pace. It's slightly more tactical when talking about the multiplayer, I feel like the maps were just a little bit better. Yes the gun variety is better on MW but guess what MW wasn't during the Cold War. They didn't HAVE many of those weapons during the Cold War. A buddy convinced me to get Black Ops again with the First Strike map pack for 30 dollars, and play that with him until Black Ops 2 comes out. I sold Black Ops when Halo CE Anniversary came out, long story short. I'm getting Black Ops back. Won't be for a week or two though.
