Steam has announced this week's Weekend Deal, knocking 40% off the price of Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare.
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
Love me some Scarface! I even bought the comics. Yeah, licensing would probably be an impasse.
I played through Scarface again last year and it still holds up. Such a fun game. I would love for Xbox to get the rights back to remaster Scarface and make a sequel. It sold well and they had plans for Scarface 2, 3, and 4. With how long it takes Rockstar to make games the market is wide open.
That game was so much fun. Expected a cheap GTA clone but it was a good drug empire building game.
They didn't just have plans but there's actual gameplay out there for scarface 2
Seriously man we need games like
True crime
Sleeping dogs
Watch dogs( more like original not legion)
And proper saints row
GTA can’t be the only option we need other games
None of those games had dedicated servers on console in the first place? Were always player hosted. Did something change?
Looks after 2 years, every COD game gets a price drop since the new version comes out. the demand for cod games just never goes down, so they keep the price hiked at $60.
Maybe after seeing this, activision took the route of going the opposite direction and make it even more expensive for ppl in Europe. it's really sad to take advantage of customers when they know that ppl are addicted to cod and that they themselves haven't improved miles ahead of cod4 so that they can justify the price.
sorry, i changed my post quite a bit.
It's free if you look hard enough or find the right website.
I'm not suggesting anything... just pointing out that Activision can go to hell for their treatment of PC, 360 and PS3 owners and just gaming in general.
LOL! Guess they gotta try make more money through steam somehow considering taking out dedicated servers has almost embarrased them in the steam charts.. DOWN WITH ACTIVISON!
Still too expensive.
