you forgot the instant-kill-o-knifeMikeyfell said:I'm stuck between Call of Duty Modern Warfare
and Call of Duty Black Ops
they both have single player campaigns that only last about 6 hours (if you play on hardcore)
they both have painfully linear paths through the missions, with snipers taking the place of invisible walls
playing on easy or normal feels like a fucking insult while you can't take a breath on veteran without getting shot 50 times
they both had an atrocious story and even worse voice acting (but Black Ops is the worst game in that respect by far)
and the muliplayer...oh god the multiplayer
(you should know I think the concept of competitive is fundamentally flawed but certain games like Halo Reach can make it work well)
but there are 3 things in particular about Call of Duty's multiplayer that make me hate these games more than anything else I've played
first they can't match games fairly
more than once I've been the only level 1 in a game and everybody else was above level 50
what the fuck kind of game doesn't have a beginner level server?
secondly higher level players get better guns and perks
what the fuck?
once you have proved that you're better than everyone else we'll give you some good guns and perks.
so the good get better while the bad get repeatedly slaughtered and demoralized?
(even if I was good enough to be a level 70 with the bullet-proof-infinite-ammo-double-damage-instant-kill perk I'd still think it was a bull shit system, a fair challenge is better than domination)
third the fucking guns and perks
in Halo there are 20 guns and you can tell what they are and what they'll do on sight
CoD has like 500 guns with such minute differences between them that you need to have memorized the "Big Book-O-Guns" from cover to cover just to know whether or not you're about to pick up an automatic weapon
in Halo there are 7 perks and none of them are any better than the others. Which are "the best" comes down to player preference.
in CoD there are a shit ton of perks and about 5 or so that can totally make you invulnerable if you're good enough to have unlocked them.
anyway, I can't decide whether Modern Warfare is worse than Black Ops or not
And it was made by Bioware, goes to show that what ever developer handles any Sonic game it still fails.Mr. Fahrenheit said:Sonic Chronicles: The Dark Brotherhood.
...Probably the most poorly designed turn-based RPG I've ever played. I regret buying it.
Beat it in two days and then sold it back.

Was it really that bad? I was considering buying it... What didn't you like about it?Veldie said:Xenosaga Episode II
