    Yeah, agree with that. Though it's not really my type of games.

    Dropped into the $36's today which was the price I was looking to get back in... Will have to watch this one if the market dips further next week.

    I guess that works as well. But then again, you're not really relaxing when playing these kind of games. Because they demand you to stay sharp, aim properly, pay attention to enemy movement and so on. With CoD you're watching an intertaining movie with occasional gameplay.

    Lots of games, but few quality games!

    Well, that is a matter of taste. Some people prefer relaxing while sharpening their senses and staying concentrated on the game rather than their job. So that can't be considered a comperative advantage.

    Heavy Rain is something that comes to mind instantly. Absolutely gorgeous!

    No new games by ATVI any time soon, that's sad...

    They have a few releases planned before the end of the year. CoD and Ghostbusters can be note worthy.

    Nothing exciting really. CoD has long become a fading franchise, and latest Ghostbusters turned up to be quite a crap. Especially if they decide to base it on the **** **** ***** new movie ...

    Thing with CoD is... it doesn't have to be good to make money. The last one generally received terrible reviews everywhere and yet outsold the previous one anyway. It seems like people will buy CoDs no matter what. Actually, I'm one of those people :D What can I say, they got me hooked :D

    Well, to be honest they made me curious with the announcement of new zombie-medieval-dragons mode. I'm afraid they can hook me up to 8)

    I wonder what the main target audience for CoD games is. I'm in my late 20's and I haven't played CoD since Modern Warfare. Anyone knows if I could find these figures somewhere?

    Why not? It takes like 2 evenings to beat and get back to forgetting it ever existed till next year. You never lose with CoD :)

    Oh, I never tried those modes. Only single player campaign. Are they worth trying?

    Same here. When they announced Zombie mode in Blacks Ops I though it was the worst idea ever. Still do.
