Be careful. People are saying the same thing for Nintendo's franchises.
Damn! that dude scary
@mac_hine
n-Space packs an incredible punch with the DS games.

They play fine, just as well. Even have multiplayer! Seriously, I want to see what they can do with the 3DS with the franchise.. They've got to be finished with Heroes or Ruin by now.
@Star Luigi
Call of oh man I never get tired of saying this!
@NeroSuferoth
I laughed at this way more than I should, why is that?
I don't think there'd be a difference between a game that's name has Black ops or one that doesn't... This game will probably break sales records cuz there's a billion people who still love every single call of duty. And the most popular drek is Black ops.
Call of Duty, almost as milked as Mario!
Maybe, but the difference is Mario has been out for 27 years, Call of Duty has been out for 8. The Mario series has seen significant changes, Call of Duty has not. And a main Mario game comes out once or twice a console, Call of Duty comes out every single year.
That was true once. Not anymore.
Hilarious that this gets slammed while another Sonic Kart game gets cheers.
@cbbomb why? Because they released screenshots of a game that looks like another game that came out on another platform?
this is going to be AWESOME!!!!!!
lol
That is all that needs to be said.
Keep up with your hipocresy gn users...
@ddddd some people don't like this game, especially since it gets yearly instalments of the same thing. That isn't the case with any nintendo game as of late. I bought the one to play online with my fiends and it turned me off to online gaming in general.
Look I don't hate or like this game but arn't you overgenralizing a bit??:<
@ddddd
''hipocresy''
LMFAO
This thread delivers.
Kill it with fire.
The two reasons I have faith?
-set in the future
-treyarch
I'm sure it'll be a fun game but god damn that engine is getting old (based on screenies, it's using the same upgraded quake engine that's been powering the series since 07). Fucking Medal of Honor is adopting Frostbite 2 and I bet EA's gonna try to get it into other series too. Given what other devs are accomplishing this shovel just doesn't fly in 2012.
You know what? screw it if it don't run at at least 720p then I ain't even interested. They've made too much bank rehashing the same engine over all these years. I respect Treyarch for doing things with the series that are actually interesting but until I see a new engine that helps to advance the series in a real way (like in 07) then I've got no reason to buy, not when other series are going to be offering up that experience
That poster has no flavor. At least the first one had a Vietnam/ Cold War motif. Pop culture is in limbo, waiting for the jar-head marine hero template to be replaced by some other inoffensive to fourteen year old male's shakey grasp on their budding machismo model.
Call of Duty is the most vanilla of the modern game series.
It's not clever. There's very little craft in it's annual iteration. It's a battlefield sim, a "realistic" battlefield sim. I thought this was a games industry. Why does make believe have to be "realistic" to be popular in the US? Where's the fun in that? I'm trying to escape reality, not put bullets through it.
Worst of all, Call of Duty has warped the entirety of the console game industry into emulating it's template. The industry has focused on peeling off it's players instead of trying to create an stark alternative. How many First Person Shooters came out last year? Homefront...Battlefield...Bulletstorm...Rage...
Anyway, we need more of this! More! More! More! Where's the new Medal of Honor? Where's the new Respawn game? The market needs more crowding with the same thing over and over! Spin! Spin! Spin until it breaks! And maybe then we can move past this into an era of creativity, where my choices aren't limited by the preferences of broken people with a need to lash out at society at large.
@ddddd
I wouldn't call it hypocrisy.. Haven't you seen how CoD games sell on Wii compared to the other consoles?
I has no place in it.. There is geniunely dislike for that series among Nintendo fans.
Realism is just an industry buzzword that's passed its prime and not even the frat boy dude bros can convince themselves that's what they're buying CoD for anymore. It's pure arcadey fun and in that respect it succeeds. You'd think you'd see more Nintendo fanboys at the very least acknowledging that, even if the series is stuck in a fucking time loop.
It's not so much that there's dislike among Nintendo fans or Wii owners. They're just given the decidedly inferior version on a platform that wasn't built nor designed nor even purchased by the consumer with playing ports of online-intensive HD games in mind.
@big fat turtle
Not at all, users around here loves when nintendo pumps a certain franchise every year (and they do) but hate that activision does the same with their most succesful franchise even tought they were one of the few publishers that supported the wii with practicaly all their products.
@LegendofSantiago
The funny part is that Mario itself is going in this direction. Yes, my original post was a joke, but it still pains me to see one of the greatest and most innovative video game series turned into yet another cash cow franchise with little original thought put into them.
And what's the difference between saying that the screenshots of NSMB2 looks similar to the old games and saying that this poster looks like every other CoD game? Both are equally valid claims. Is it wrong that I actually want Nintendo to actually put more effort into the next Mario game than Activision does for their own prize cow?
am i in the same site??
this is the biggest whine fasta place in the Internets of Nintendo fanboyisaim if there is some thing i learned here i saw whining more then anything else.
What are some examples of Nintendo franchises that come out every year? The only one that comes close is Mario Party with 9 games in 14 years, and personally I have never loved it, I've never bought a single one. Activision seems to have it down to an art. At this rate Call of Dutys days are numbered, look at Tony Hawk or Guitar hero, I have a feeling Spyro Skylanders is next up. It's actually rather sad, I liked Tony Hawk, and Guitar Hero was pretty fun for a while.
i heard that its hard to get your facts straight nowadays
especially with a company like Nintendo which spams its franchises yearly more then call of duty!! 'sarcasm'
