    I despise the multiplayer of CoD. Just like Swarley has said, all the perks in that game are stupid as fuck and I also don't like how twitch it is. The campaigns are usually entertaining even if they are like popcorn flicks. This game still has all of the bombastic events of the CoD campaigns but with a story rooted in reality. I'm not sure how many more times I need to say it or why it's so difficult to understand?
    So a popcorn flick game is worth $60? Even if you used coupons or whatever for it, you are still spending $60 for the game in some way, shape or form.

      I have to say, after watching the full playthrough the story feels really cheap. I get what they're going after, trying to honor soldiers and their families (wives especially), but by the end I was really annoyed with how heavy-handed it was. The end sequence is especially stupid, with a really wordy diatribe about the lives of military men. I can appreciate what they were attempting to accomplish with Warfighter, but I can't help but be annoyed at the execution.

      And Linkin Park? Fucking yuck.

        True. But what I think is worth $60 will be completely different than anyone else, especially since I buy a bunch of games. So far I'm happy with my purchase.

        I'm not sure why me liking the game is such a bog deal? If the game is piece of shit, I'll say it. As many games as I buy does anyone really think I need to justify my purchase somehow? Really?

        I actually like LP. I understand how uncool it is to like mainstream bands though.

        The bottom line is that, based on what I've played thus far, this game is as good if not slightly better than the last MoH game. Yet somehow that game has a 74 (Xbox) and 75 (PS3) on Metacritic and somehow this game is in the 50s. It just doesn't make any sense.

          I've always compared games with movies. A movie is about 2 hours and about $10 a trip. So, whatever game I'm getting has to somehow beat $5 an hour.

          Mass Effect 3 has probably garnered about 5 cents an hour due to how much I've played it.

          As he went, he said: "O my son Absalom! My son, my son Absalom!
          If only I had died instead of you
          O Absalom, my son, my son!"

              The amount of times you complain about the cost for a game, I didn't think you would enjoy this one. Shorter campaign, cookie-cutter multiplayer that you have no interest in, so it's a surprise. I'm not trying to start shit about it.

                I actually thought Meteora was terrible but their newest singles are decent. Seems to be more of a return to form.

                  All I've heard so far is complaints about the copy cat storyline and feel to Call Of Duty in which people claim to enjoy so why hate? Hating on the Linkin Park music and the same controls as CoD/BF3. Firstly I think having similar controls is a good thing and it's common sense really, you can get quickly acclimated to the controls. Would you like PS1 shooter controls where you have to press X to shoot? Didn't think so. If it were any other way in terms of the controls people would bitch that the controls are along the lines of "ancient".

                  Secondly, for everyone who says this game is a action driven game with a bunch of booms and explosions, sure,that's correct, but how is that any different from any call of duty game? Or a lot of shooter games for that matter.

                  Seems like a lot of hate and nitpicking too me.

                  I personally could care less about shooter campaigns cause I think they're usually glorified anyways. I buy them to enjoy the online experience with friends. So if it's good in that aspect I'll buy it.

                  Don't compare every shooter to CoD/BF3. There is more than two shooters around.

                  With that being said I barely played so I don't have much opinions, nor will I jump on reviews that websites such as GS or IGN have made, I only played a few minutes at my friends house on his 360 during the beta and I found that it felt a bit like Far Cry 3 actually.

                    so if u havnt played then you have no frame of reference...so stfu

                    seriously, your idiotic view points are focusing on comparisons to the 2 big name FPS. anyone could have used any of the other 9 million cookie cutter shooters but since cod and bf are the mainstream names every knows, its just easier to point at those.

                    maybe if you had played the game more than the few seconds you claim to have on this game you would see that the thing that makes this game suck is that its trying to do everything that has been done 9 million times before...the problem josh homo is that it fails miserably at even being a copy cat and has a horribly lame/boring story.

                    so before coming back with some no point of reference haters gonna hate for no reason but i think i will take a piggy back ride on twigg rant, you might want to get more than a few minutes of gametime in so you dont sound like the jackass we all know you for.

                      I had to thank your post for that hilarious attempt at a rebuttal.

                      i was able to get a copy for pc and played around with it for a short time. plus i read alot of impressions on some other sites...
                      You didn't even play it long enough yourself. All you are doing is following IGN's reviews and claiming it to be a hard fact.

                      Like I said, I don't care about FPS storylines so your poke at me for that means nothing.

                      I wasn't claiming the game to be good, instead I was just criticizing some of weak bashing's some people have made about this game.

                      I forgot Call Of Duty is very original to you and didn't adapt any of it's gameplay or anything from any other shooter before

                        One of the more accurate reviews I've seen.

                          i played over 2 hours of a 4 hour campaign. so yeah....and i am glad you are complaining about the reviews. maybe if you had some basis for your opinion it might matter. but in reality your opinion never matters and is just a good excuse to make you look stupid

                              I found that it's not just a copy of CoD. It's a mixture of a few games. Obviously Battlefield as it uses their engine and a little of Far Cry 3 actually.

                              I don't respect CoD as a company, making fortunes of the same game with little innovation. It's the same game skeleton with a new skin. I understand the saying "if it aint broke than don't fix it" but there is plenty wrong with the game. So if I'm gonna fork out $60 I'd rather give it to a game more deserving I guess. Plus the next Black Ops II looks like shit anyways. I loved/hated them all the way up until Black Ops.

                                Call of Duty isn't a company, it's a franchise. And while some people certainly don't like it, sales don't lie- it is a popular game. I do prefer Battlefield 3 to Call of Duty right now, but to say that MOH is something that can stand on its own is grasping for straws. Online and the thoughts posted by members here essentially sum that up.
