Saying "cod looks like just another shooter" isnt a very good arguement. Burnout looks ike a racing game. That parrot looks like another parrot... What did you want from it? It happens to be one of the best and most involving shooters. Well 4 is i dont care for 5. I liked the characters and the levels were interesting and unpredictable.
On a sidenote i hate all sports titles with a vengance. Except skating games, im leet at them for some reason. I like RPG's but not the ones that drag on and on and on and on. FF comes to mind as does dragon quest. I like short RPG's, especually those that are not turn based. Turn based games make me die inside. Movie tie ins make me die inside as well. Theres hardly any soul left.
