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.
Cultured Vultures: Put on your freshest dungarees and chow down on the ripest mushroom as we reel off the best Mario games ever made to celebrate Mar10 Day.
My top 3 are Mario 3, Mario World and Mario 64. Mario Odyssey is also excellent, and I enjoyed Sunshine but didn't care for the Galaxy series.
Hey Poor Player's James Davie Takes Us On A Bio-Shocking Deep Dive Into Irrational Games' Nautical Nightmare.

bioshock
call of duty 4
super mario galaxy

super mario galaxy over bioshock
No uncharted, R&C .And some Ps3 adherent worshippers have really being waxing lyrical about these games, We were lead to beleive and telling us how they are the best games on any console. Didnt even make the list.
they are the most biased reviewers next to gamespot. Dont take them seriously.
Good list. Mass Effect, Assassin's Creed and BioShock are all that I want to see among main GOTY noms.
UPDATE: God of War 2, COD4, SMG, Uncharted, MP3, Crysis and few others are also great and deserve a nomination at least but those 3 are my top and fave choices.
