Recently Dan Amrich a blogger for Activision has taken to Facebook to fight the Anti-Activision onslaught. During this conversation he mentions that there will be THREE Call Of Duty games in the next TWO years. View the full quote after the link along with more information.
Licensing issues often leave many games forgotten. But all that aside, here are 10 classic games desperate for remasters.
The getaway
Smugglers run
Dead to rights
Worlds scariest police chases
Sure I’m missing a few.
Ape Escape.
Fun game but, wow, you need a college degree to understand the controls.
A remaster would also save you from having to constantly fight the camera.
Keep the music though. Those drum and bass tracks fit really well and haven't aged. Made me think that more games could work well with drum and bass tracks, but unfortunately it's a somewhat niche genre now.
i could have sworn i read somewhere that Remedy is remaking May Payne 1 but things have been quiet lately
One of the few Xbox games I own. I have 3 copies of it because of the many discs it has, for just in case reasons
Xenogears, Xenosaga trilogy, Vagrant Story, Drakengards, Parasite Eve and many more but I’ll start with those
The Black Ops series has featured some of the best and classic multiplayer maps in the Call of Duty franchise, and here's the top of them.
The Nerd Stash: "Developed by Treyarch Studios, Call of Duty: Black Ops games are some of the best in the series in terms of gameplay, story, and -- of course -- Zombies."
Black ops 4, because it was the last cod of duty I was able to dominate with a +2 k/d ratio. Before all the freaking cheating started to happen. It was nice catching people off guard and shooting at them first and getting the kill. Unlike now, where I shoot people first, but they gun me down with less hits, less time, literally feels like they can kill me in a split second. At times, they are able to run away after me shooting them way more than necessary, yet, the second I'm spotted, I'm dead, there's no me running away to cover. They can do cartwheels, summersaults, backflips and gun you down perfectly. They can shoot you across the map with perfect accuracy. They can jump around like morons and gun you down without even having to correct their aim. They have superman split second perfect reactions. That's the best way to describe it, everything they do is spot on perfect. They can spam and spray (no praying) their gun from far away, because they have no recoil or bullet spread. It always feels like I have to aim and also correct my aim when moving around, while these pricks don't have to do the same.
And yes, I know how to play fps games. I dominated many fps games like: Resistance 1&2, kz 2&3, Socom, MAG, Crysis, Gotham City Impostors, blitz brigade etc. all with 2-4 k/d ratio. Kz2 (lag input controls) and resistance (no aim assist in resistance) being the hardest and were the games I reached either close to a 3 k/d ratio or above.
I truly got to enjoy blacks ops 4 and got my money's worth out of it. Afterwords, I would either stop playing cod games after a while, because of the cheating, or would skip buying cod games for a year or two before buying another.
That franchise is being milked to death.
nobody releases 3 games from the same franchise 2 years apart.
they are just going to take sales away from each other instead of maximizing profits.
That's right people "PROFITS".
That's the only thing Activision cares about.
Wow, I wonder how bad these games are gonna be. Im really sick of multiplat fps shooters.
fu@kyouguys
They're just sh!tting them out now. Why only three? Surely they could crap out a port for the DS, Iphone and PSP too.
Sad thing is that people are going to gobble up each game, like dogs to dog-food.
Not to insinuate that I am somehow superior for stating this, but I have never bought a COD game. Never. Not one. Played them, yes, but I just never understood the appeal and couldn't rationalize putting down $70 (plus tax) for a copy. Could someone who enjoys the series explain to me, in a rational, non PR-puppet way what makes COD so phenomenal?
It can't be the originality. I've seen (and partaken in) the last two campaigns being blitzed through in 3-4 hours a piece and they play like a really bad Dolph Lundgren movie.
Is it the multi-player? If you're looking at console FPSes, Halo 3, R2 and KZ2 have superior online components (as well as graphics and stories).
Edit: Thanks for the reply, even if it was a little vague :P What I'm wondering is, aside from obvious differences in individual taste that you mentioned, what aspects of the series are appealing to it's veterans that are better in COD than in other games in the genre? Or is it all hype? That's what I want to know.
damn... well... here we go...
