After seeing this Wii port of the original Modern Warfare up and running on our giant television in the conference room, several editors independently dubbed it "Modern Warfare: Gag Reflex." Many gamers shared a similar sentiment when the project was announced, complaining that the Wii's processing power simply couldn't handle a title as graphically intensive as this legendary FPS. While they aren't wrong, they are missing a much bigger and more crippling problem: the Wii Remote.
MW 2019 is five years old at this point and on previous gen hardware, but it is still the best looking Call of Duty game to date.
MW was an excellent videogame. They messed up Spec Ops big time, but aside from this it was a huge step in the right direction initially. Most notably, at launch it seemed to come from a very cohesive creative vision that was felt across gameplay, to story to art style/visual direction. It was also very notably written by prominent ex-Naughty Dog guys that quit almost immediately before release.
That COMPLETELY dissolved through post-launch content and the full pivot to a "cross-mode" narrative that completely obliterated the cohesion in overall story direction. Warzone then "became" the new face of Call of Duty and the franchise completely removed itself from anything remotely creatively "good". It is a pure money machine, so I kinda get why they're doing it....but I personally completely lost interest.
I would love to see Infinity Ward move off CoD and get to make their own product with full control. They clearly have some massive talent in their ranks but it's perverted by Activision's corporate interests.
Call Of Duty is back with its yearly instalment, but is Modern Warfare 3 breaking new ground, or just a lazy cash grab? The answer may not surprise you in today's review from JDR.
The original Modern Warfare and Modern Warfare 2 games have been drawing players back in
I really hope we get other activision games on GP soon. My dream would be Scarface but I know the license probably expired
None of those games had dedicated servers on console in the first place? Were always player hosted. Did something change?
Oh Treyarch, you can do no good...
I find it hilarious that they try to act as though the Wii-Mote isn't superior to dual analogue for fps games. They are in so much denial it ain't even funny.
I honestly don't know how ppl play FPS on HD consoles. It's just so stiff and in all fairness, lame.
I've said it once I'll say it again, HD consoles are wanabe PC's you want to experience the HD games the way they were meant to be played get a gaming PC, seriously. I'm not even a PC gamer but I've dabbed enough in it to know this truth.
Give me the Wii mote/chuck over dual analogue fps control any day of the week.
That once and for all the only thing reviewers care about is awsome graphics. He fail to mention that they took the lead from High Voltage Software and made there control scheme 100% customizable. Its not Treyarch's fault that the person the reviewed this game is a complete bumbling idiot who cant even find buttons on the Wii-mote. I refuse to even accept the FREE magazine I get from Gamestop just because GameInformer are a group of the most moronic reviews out there next to EDGE.
Mouse+WADS > Wiimote+Numchuck > garbage > Dual Analog Stick. True story.
Are these 360 screens shots ?
