All of my friends are pretty big gamers (spend more time playing than me, at least), and they talk to each other about whatever they're playing. So a few days ago I decided to join a conversation about CoD6. I haven't followed CoD6, so I didn't even know it was announced, but I loved 2 and 4. So I asked them if the new game was going to be made by the "real developers" meaning Infinity Ward. They say no, and I say "that's too bad". Then I realize that Treyarch shouldn't have gotten the right to make it twice in a row, and I ask them who the "real" dev was. They tell me all about CoD3 and CoD5 and their wonders, while I vow secretly to never talk to them about this stuff again.

In a related thing, they also think Diamond and Pearl are the peak of the pokemon franchise and have never played old Final Fantasys while worshipping the DS versions. And...they don't like Deus Ex :(

They don't have the exact same opinoins as you? So what if they disagree with you about 3 games, or have never played final fantasy originals? My friend and I are in a band, and we have two completely different tastes in music, but we play together amazingly. I'd suggest you not decide to shun people out so quickly. Also, bringing your problems to a forum probably isn't a good idea. Sorry if this sounded harsh.

^actually, I've only played gold out of any of those...And who are you to judge me, with your your laser shooting pussy!?

Edit: this was to the guy with the cat in his avatar, not the one right above me.

Edit #2: The problem is, Call of Duty and Pokemon are the only games they talk about. If I try to say anything about any other game they change the subject to those two.

Deus Ex .. Allright.
Welcome to the club, mate. I've got like .. 2 or 3 friends that's plating games. Thw rest don't even play games. That's why I usually take my gaming talk somewhere else. So I'm pretty much never even mentioning games to any of my friends.

Like [a href=http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/jump/9.103762.1620974]GyroCaptain[/a] said, that's why you're here. That's why you've got forums. So that you can say things, and discuss with your like-minded ones. Don't worry, mate. We're here for you

So you disagree with your friends about some games. Whatever. Talk about games on the Internet and talk about things that are actually interesting to talk about in real life.

All FInal Fantasys after 1 sucked, excluding FFT.

As to the Call of Duty stuff; Call of Duty 6, or now officially Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, is an Infinity Ward property. No need to worry there.

Well, there is, because the engine sucks anymore, being a proprietary fork of IdTech 3/Q3Engine. They seriously need a new engine.
