I actually enjoy BO2 but even I think this is ridiculous. Yes, direct streaming to TwitchTV is a great FEATURE but it isn't necessarily an innovation.

Its a sad state of affairs that COD continues to eclipse the likes of The Journey and other more innovative games not only in sales but in the accolades they receive.

Well, at least we know better right?

Blank4080d ago

Yeah my reaction exactly aside me spitting out water at my screen in shock and it wasnt on accident either....

donman14080d ago

Up for what... hahahaha.. drinking alcohol and typing often produce nonsense like this. If there was an award for the best franchise for cheaters, poor hit detection etc then yes... COD takes the number 1 spot here.

Root4080d ago (Edited 4080d ago )

LOL

Innovation.....COD

Wow, that's hilarious....game awards out of the gaming community who don't have a clue about games just go for whats "hot" not whats actually right

GuyThatPlaysGames4080d ago

I guess it's innovative in the way it has the bullets that shoot around corners lol

SkullBlade1694080d ago

Nah, Resistance: Fall of Man had that earlier.

OneAboveAll4080d ago

This is a sign of the end times i'm sure of it.

Single player mode has multiple choice scenarios, the boss is a bad***, and there's different high tech weapons and such (remember the invisible suit, gravity gloves, and the flying squirrel suit?). They let you ride on a horse for gosh sakes (women love their ponies)!

They have bots, (which is a blessing, and I believe every shooter should have) and online play is enjoyable.

Treyarch deserves to be recognized for their efforts.

SolidDuck4080d ago

No it was a copy and paste effort at best.

RTheRebel4080d ago

wha wha di did you mean that????

Baka-akaB4080d ago

Funny thing is none of the things you mentioned were new , so no they dont deserve that particular recognition

cleverusername4080d ago

Come into the light...broaden your gaming horizons!!!

Jadedz4079d ago

Let's agree to disagree.

I just enjoy Blk ops 2 on the Wii U a lot (mostly because of the off-TV play feature).

hmm kinda out there i find red dead 2 a over hyped game i am sure there are other's out there worthy of this award.

Are we saying rdr 2 mp is better than the first one?

The cover shooting better on #2 than #1?

I mean they reused 80% of rdr 1 map on rdr 2

smolinsk16d ago

Red Dead Redemption 1 was better. A better story that's for sure but the world in red Dead Redemption 2 is fantastic. But overall yes Red Dead Redemption 2 is overhyped but with best living World ever made.

just_looken16d ago (Edited 16d ago )

Oh rdr 2 world how you leave tracks what you can do and the npc's are great no doubt

For me its the forced guns one way to play missions and the camp you can do nothing be a ass and there is no change sense none of the hunting/donating.bounty/karma etc even taking care of your horse matters. Then you got the horse inventory along with them bringing in realistic inventory but at the same time have that slomo crap pick a lane is it a wild west sim or a max payne rip off.

shinoff218315d ago (Edited 15d ago )

Plus who cares about the mp. Single player is where it's at.

I don't think it's the best sequel either. I liked it but I can see why some say it's overhyped. That's because it was. Great game still. I'd take xcom 2 as a better sequel. I'm sure there's plenty others.

just_looken15d ago

We care about mp because of gta v even if you been living under a rock you know what gtao did to gta v dlc.

Though rdr 2 mp failed it still put time/resources and budget away from the single player for a subpar experience compared to the first.

lucasnooker16d ago

Hmmm don’t know about that one myself. There’s some good sequels there….

No way last of us 2 was a better sequel than the original resident evil 2. The story of TLOU2 was a huge let down for me!

Assassins creed 2 was a vast improvement over the original and still the very best of the entire franchise imo.

Half-life 2 will always be legendary.

RDR2 is great but the best sequel ever? I don’t think so… just my opinion though I guess

shinoff218315d ago

Shoot down last of us 2 but bring up assassins creed 2. What in the world.

anast16d ago

Last of Us 2 would be mine and Dark Souls 3 has to be up there.

raWfodog16d ago

I also enjoyed TLOU2 but RDR2 edges it out for me. Both hit me in the feels but RDR2 just a little bit more lol.

anast15d ago

RDR2 is an excellent game. One of my top 10 of all time.

SimpleSlave16d ago

Sure, if you started playing game yesterday and just for this series. Otherwise? lol... No.
