This is true. Are you playing it on PC?

Not that I don't like Call of Duty, but they do seem to release those games too quick/every year. Call of Duty didn't get popular up until the release of Modern Warfare. So they're obviously doing something right. But what I mean by "high quality generic shooter" is that it's nothing special and reminds me of a generic war game while still being better and playable then a generic war game. It's complicated, I don't think I'm explaining it right. I guess I'll actually aperciate those games more if it were co-op. I know World at War is, and I'm planning on getting those games. So far I passed the first MW on PS3. Shooting just isn't fun alone. It's always fun going into war with real back up.

And yes, Rainbow Six games are fun with another person. I'm just doing it alone right now for achievements. I know the story is dull but the gameplay makes up for it. I remember the first Rainbow Six on N64, my brother didn't let me play it with him because I was too young and would suck at it, and yet I was good at Halo. But now that I have way more skill in shooting games, I play Rainbow Six with my brother which makes any shooter a whole lot fun.

On another note, I passed Halo 3 ODST with my brother on Legendary yesterday morning. So now we're going to aim for some easy firefight achievements.

Is anyone going to get Smackdown vs Raw 2011? This game looks very promising. I just don't like the grappling system and the whole not being able to climb the announce table thing, why did they have to change it!? And not that I'm complaing because it's cool. Why is RVD in it? Isn't he in TNA?

Why can't I stop asking questions?

Because you're dumb. This isn't the thread to ask questions.

As far as releasing them every year....thats two different development teams, hotshot. And there's a deffinate difference in quality between things Treyarch releases and what InfinityWard released.

Its weird that you label it as generic because it looks like "nothing special and reminds me of a generic war game" when R6 just feels like a generic tactical shooting game.

With IW gone, it seems like Treyarch got a bunch of the development tools, so Black Ops LOOKS better than WAW, and the other **** they've dropped. So, who knows.

Doesn't work that way. Even if it did only 4 people on this message board are interested in the game, Only 2 of them aren't poor and one of those doesn't give a sh*t.

Every so often I have a relapse into wrestling games and feel the need to buy the most recent one, but it seems to be fleeting. I'm not sure I'll ever be into wrestling games like I was when I was younger again.

Yeah I hope Black Ops is way better then World at War. I've played World at War and compared to the first Modern Warfare, it wasn't that great. But I still need to own and pass them all except the first three. Maybe WaW wasn't that great because my brother sucked at it. Well thank God for XBOX LIVE and my oldest brother. But yeah, I think I still like Rainbow Six better. I think I build more anger for those games because of the idiot online junkies who think they're so great. All I know Is that I'm going to be turning a lot people down when I start playing it.

Or maybe he was clearing up Doom's joke? Is that not clear?

Yesterday was pretty awesome, someone's perception was off.

Anyway.

Kirby came in today, and I picked up DJ Hero 2 instead of Force Unleashed 2. It was a toss up, but after seeing that people were reporting 3.5 hours for FU2, I think I'll wait.

Kirby is cute, for sure, and looks good. I don't know how much longevity it'll have on me, though. It seems like a game my girlfriend and Mother are oddly enamored with...
