G4 TV's Adam Sessler is back on his soapbox again, and this week, he's talking about Call of Duty 4. Adam hits the nail on the head when he describes CoD4, saying, "This game kicks ass, and it kicks ass with a very large foot."
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?
he didnt even go tell anyone to put a !BLEEP! in their mouth..WTF...
The only people I want to actually see on camera talking about video games are:
1) Gaming executives
2) Game developers
3) Hot chicks
4) Angry Video Game Nerd
Everyone else I really don't want to see their (usually not so pretty) faces on camera.
That's why I never watch Gamespot's video reviews- because they always have some fat, ugly a$$ reviewer on camera. Only gametrailers and IGN video reviews for me (ie, the reviewers usually are not on camera).
Didn't need him to tell me that but w/e. I'm too busy playing AC to give much attention to my copy of COD 4. Both are awesome btw. =)
i hate this horrible bastard
