Okay

Now, peoples perceptions on good video games differ from person to person....in my opinion Call of Duty does not excite me. Ive played the demos and the full version and while I found it to be semi enjoyable, I got bored of it really quick. It plays way too fast and there is no realism to it. Weapon models are horrible and the skins are done poorly (Mg42 for example). Animations are really funky looking (running, reload, etc). Placement of weapons is totally retarded looking and are too small for the player. The weapon sounds are too bland sounding and reload sounds are too "tin can like". I can see a lot of people that are younger in age and like Counterstrike also like this game. Sure, you can say "This and that can be fixed with patches." Ive heard that before for MOH and did it ever happen? Nah. Now maybe a lot of you don't see where I am coming from, but for about a year and a half now ive been working for a video game company. You tend to realize how shitty games are when you actually help make them. I guess thats why im acting anal about CoD. Because to me it looks like they rushed for a release. So there you go. Any other questions?
