i really hate to hash the subject but the anomosity between the players of each of these games has become as bitter as the actual feud between developers and publishers.
Is this because of the real problems that these game designers are experiencing and are players taking these issuses home with them? whatever the case may be, online gaming has taken a turn for the worse because of it and theres nobody to blame but ourselves.
video games are just that, games. if you cant play and be sporting about it then thats your own fault. if you dont like a game then thats your opinion and youre entitled to it right? all you have to do is not partake in that particular game, you should not be chastised for thinking freely or expressing yourself.

It seems like every year the same old dilema arises...

Should I play my games and hang with my gaming buddies online or should I partake in the events of summer time?

Im a gamer and have been since my dad bought me an Atari back in 1982 but Im a beach guy as well...

Riding beach cruisers, surfing, drinking beer on the beach, cook outs with family or friends, you get the idea - all activities to do with being outside and nothing to do with gaming.

The solution to this is pretty easy and it also applies to most situations, find a balance.

Play online and in your real life forever

Activision is definitely planning a new Call of Duty scheduled for release later this year as stated by

Mike Griffith, President and CEO of Activision Publishing

"2010 will be another important year for the Call of Duty franchise, new downloadable content from Infinity Ward and a new Call of Duty release..."

Later in the article it states that Treyarch would be the expected cantidate for the release.

Theres alot of speculation about where the war will take place or what the games content will be ie Zombie Mode, Spec Ops. This info is pretty much on the down low for now but regardless it has created a whirlwind of hype. Activision sure is getting some great advertising by keeping most details vague.

The fact that the site mentions Treyarch is exciting news to me and I expect most World at War fans.
