Do you remember Duty Calls? Do you remember the epic slogan "bloody screen, so real!"? PC Games shows you that Epic Games didn't only have Call of Duty in mind!
Back in 2011, Epic Games and People Can Fly launched a Call of Duty parody - Duty Calls - that has been lost to the annals of history.
"Duty Calls: The Calm Before the Storm" sounds more like a massive case of the sh**s. 😂
I saw the parody mention, and half expected the ability to drop a deuce on your opponent... I left disappointed.
Hahaha i actually just dropped a review of this game on my channel! I hit all the story beats for anybody too lazy to install it and play through it

People Can Fly are promoting their upcoming Bulletstorm with Duty Calls, a parody of the most popular first-person shooter series around. It makes a lot of good points, but it totally fails to make a valid argument about why you should buy Bulletstorm.
Eh, it did it's job. It's not like every day a developer would create an entire level, even a rudimentary one, to stick it to another game.
"Duty Calls fails at making a fair contrast and instead focuses purely on stirring controversy for easy publicity."
Which you are giving them. If you dont like it stop writing articles about it, hence giving them more free publicity.
Basically this boils down to Call of Duty fanboys having their feelings hurt as people point out the Call of Duty franchise is, and has been, utter wank for a long time.
They're clearly using CoD weak points like boredom, weak level design, etc to promote their own product, i don't see nothing wrong with this
I don't care what Duty Calls tried to do. It made me laugh, and really that's awesome. I wouldn't mind actually having a game like Duty Calls, being released as a full title. Make fun of a few more commonly used FPS tactics etc, should be a riot if done right. All this seriousness lately has just taken some of the fun out of gaming.

Get that red shit off my screen.
Half the things they mocked Call of Duty for they had in Bulletstorm...
Is google translate not working for anyone else? It just keeps translating, finishing, translating, finishing, etc.
I'm going to say a bunch of things that further progress the story.
I wonder what Infinity Ward did with the guy responsible for Modern Warfare 2's bloody screen. Hopefully they stuck something similar into his eyeballs and he accidentally walked over a cliff, because it easily takes the cake as the most obnoxious "blood screen" of all time.
