Yawn...after playing Metal Gear Solid 4 everything else just looks dull.

<Infinity Ward....?.... INFINITY WAAAAAARD!!!)

SUP3R5791d ago

meh
Need motion for better judgement.

oothebutcheroo5791d ago

this game is so dumb looking (so far)...........why does treyarch make games that r so dumb and pathetic looking and i thought infinty bought the rights to cod? anyone know?

aaquib55791d ago

Activision does. Activision just lets each developer work on the new game. Unfortunately, with the bar set by CoD4 and Infinity Ward, Treyarch doesn't stand a chance to try making a better CoD5.

IzKyD13315791d ago

after the incredibly high bar that was set by COD4, theres no way in hell that COD5 can top (or even match) COD4

Close_Second5791d ago (Edited 5791d ago )

...I had a kill/death ratio of 4.09 and without sniping or being a camper. Basically the game stopped being fun for me a for a couple of reasons:

1. Martyrdom. Worst perk in the game. Takes away the need for any skill and its in dire need of a makeover in terms of being able to use it. As a start I would make it so you could only use this perk if you have not thrown all your grenades during combat!

2. Sniping. Maps are far too small to support snipers. Basically just a line of fire point and shoot. You don't have to worry about wind, gravity, etc. Still far too easy to snipe.

3. No team play. Most of the time is a free-for-all no matter what the game type being played. Teamwork nearly always takes a backseat to good teamplay. This is especially relevant for the PS3 version as there seem to be so few PS3 players who actually have a headset.

4. The lobby. COD4 is all about on-line play and yet it comes complete with one of the most inept lobby systems of any next gen game. Even COD3 had a better lobby than COD4. Mind you, at least it is not as bad as the lobby used for GTAIV.

5. Crossairs. What the hell is the deal with being able to tell where an enemy is hiding by looking at your crossairs.

6. Weapons pick up. I am fed up with games that don't require you to do much at all to pick up weapons or ammo. Simply walk over them and thats it. Why have none of these next-gen games introduced some sort of mini-game (ala Gears of War reloading system) for searching bodies or picking up ammo. Also be nice to be able to set booby traps on your fallen comrades so if anyone did do a search...

7. Spawn points/killing. COD4 still has a nasty spawn system that seems to place you back in the middle of combat which makes you nothing but a target for being spawn killed. I wreckon if you spawn kill (I know sometimes is accidental) that your gun(s) should jam for 15 seconds.

Anyway, COD4 is by no means perfect and its the little things that start to bug me about the game. I for one am looking forward to COD5 as it seems to me to be COD4 but set in WWII and that to me is quite appealing.

Looking Back At 2008, An Unbelievably Incredible Year Of Video Game Releases

Huzaifa from eXputer: "2008 was home to the likes of Call of Duty: World at War, Dead Space, GTA 4, Far Cry 2, Left 4 Dead, and many other hits, which is outright remarkable."

CrimsonWing691h ago

I don’t think anything can compare to 2023

lucasnooker54m ago

1998 - the best year in gaming! Metal gear solid, crash bandicoot 3, medievil, half life, ocarina of time, thief, tenchu, resident evil 2, Spyro, tomb raider 3, oddworld abes exodus, banjo kazooie.

It was a different breed of a gaming era. You’ll never understand what it was like back then. The aura of gaming, it was different!

KyRo44m ago(Edited 42m ago)

I second this. Gaming was a lot more varied and fun than it is today. I'm 35 so getting on compared to some here but I got to see all the changes from NES up to now but I've never felt so disappointed in any generation than I have this current gen. I was expecting more from this generation rather than prettier versions of games that came before it. Game mechanics have become so refined that alot of games feel the same and has done for a while now.

Maybe it's time to have a break for a while. I love gaming but I don't feel I get much fun in the traditional sense out of it anymore.

CrimsonWing6934m ago(Edited 33m ago)

Metal Gear Solid, Resident Evil 2, Abe’s Exodus, and Ocarina of Time are the only things from that list that I liked.

Here’s the 2023 game releases that I personally liked… and big releases that I didn’t care for:

- Dead Space Remake
- Wo Long Dynatsy
- Resident Evil 4 Remake
- Diablo 4
- Fire Emblem Engage
- Hogwarts Legcay
- Street Fighter 6
- Hi-Fi Rush
- Like a Dragon: Ishin
- Octopath Traveler 2
- Final Fantasy Pixel Remasters
- Final Fanatsy XVI (actually ended up not liking this, but it was still a big deal release)
- Baldur’s Gate 3
- Armored Core VI: Fires of Rubicon
- Lies of P
- Mortal Kombat 1
- Marvel’s Spider-Man 2
- Starfield (Ended up hating this one, but big release)
- Super Mario Bros. Wonder
- Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom (I’m an old-school Zelda fan, but didn’t really enjoy this game)
- Alan Wake 2

I mean, honestly I’ve never seen a year of major IP releases like that, ever.

Well, he definitely got his money’s worth.

Abnor_Mal294d ago

Same as Shirley Curry playing Skyrim for years. In the next Elders Scrolls game they should have her in the game as some form of npc.

andy85294d ago

She is, I read she will be a character. Not a dig in any form but I hope she's alive when it releases

Relientk77294d ago

That's over 7,000 hours geez. What crazy stats

nitus10294d ago

Actually it is very easy to up the number of hours you have been playing a game. Basically all you need to do (assuming you have a PS4 or 5) is to place the console into stand-by without exiting the game, so if you do this a one hour gameplay actually becomes a 24 gameplay or longer.

boing1293d ago

What? So the game is still runinng when you put it to sleep? What?

EvertonFC294d ago

It's actually sad not an achievement but hey we need the full story details.

Knushwood Butt293d ago

There's someone on my friend list that has more than 6200 hours on Uncharted 4.

vTuro24293d ago

7k hours over 15 years isn't that crazy. The fact that he's been playing the same game for 15 years is more impressive.

And then you got people that want to finish a game every week.

Rhythmattic293d ago

Nailed what is the Spectrum... For good and bad, Quality or Quantity..Or the unreasonable to reason for. ;)

jznrpg294d ago

Of course you will hit a ridiculous stat after 15 of anything.
My main character for Everquest had over 500 days played in the first 6 years of the game. I was young then and had a lot of time on my hands. I don’t think I could duplicate that again until I retire and not sure I could match it if I tried.

EvertonFC294d ago

500 days in 6 years is nothing lol, you do realise how many days in a year right ?

poppatron294d ago

I might be getting the maths wrong here, I think 500 days in 6 years works out at an average of just over 6 hours every single day. For 6 years. That’s pretty serious

EvertonFC294d ago

Edit: wrote this early this morning, I understand it's lots of hours now lol at myself 😂🤣😜

RedDevils294d ago

The only way to achieve this, is by having no life outside of video game lol.

Outlawzz293d ago

Strange choice of game but hey that's some devotion. Congrats to them!
