Ok… I’m a man who can admit when I’m wrong… most times, at least.
A few months back I wrote an article outlining the demise of the Modern Warfare series. Well just as Mark Twain wrote in a telegram many years ago, “the reports of my death has been greatly exaggerated,” so may have my opinions of the next iteration in the Call of Duty series called Modern Warfare 3.
Both “Hunter Killer” and “Black Tuesday” E3 2011 trailers show another fantastical jaunt into the Bruckheimer world that is Modern Warfare and I was impressed.
The trailers had excellent pacing and better dynamic lighting right out of the gate. The story feels very familiar and this is a good thing and not at all what I was expecting. My “too many cooks” complaint may be moot. Clearly, as by what I’ve seen in the on stage, E3 demo, Infinity Ward is no longer the lead developer. I don’t think Robert Bowling, newly minted creative strategist at IW, was allowed to speak 2 consecutive words under gag order from Activision as the President of Sledgehammer games did all the talking.
I am now a fan of what I’ve seen so far. Putting Call of Duty Elite aside for now as nobody, including Activision, knows what that will be. Seeing Modern Warfare back gave me the familiar, warm blanket feel I was missing with Black Ops. From the font of the on-screen text to listening to “Warlord” bark out command directions, this is a series I want to jump back into sooner rather than later.
So… Sledgehammer Games, Infinity Ward and Raven Studios, it’s possible your death was “greatly exaggerated”… my bad.
Now... just don’t fuck it up.
Here is the release date and time countdown for when the WWE 2K24 CM Punk ECW Pack DLC will come out along with the price.
While summer is just over the horizon, right now fans have a new update to download on PC as well as Xbox. Here you will find the full Palworld update 0.2.4.0 patch notes that include huge changes to breeding and Alpha Pals.
There are different types of Gifts in Hades 2, each with different benefits.
All the E3 demo showed was swimming followed by a boat ride followed by a bit of shooting followed by a few explosions. Honestly from what I've seen of the trailers and footage it looks to me like IW/Sledgehammer don't even care about trying to make the game look different, they realise it'll sell either way so they'll just show it to everyone for what it is which is the same thing as we've seen before.
The tralers did suck but i think this game will be pretty fun
It's a trailer. It's supposed to make you giddy.
Likely reality is that it wont top COD4 (which I thought was fantastic)
MW2's story was OK, but it was on par with many other shooters these days. Consider the limited engine, the lack of any real details on anything new, and it's honestly sounding like just another run of the mill SP experience.
I'm looking forward to Spec Ops and MP information though

EVER
MW2 and COD4 did not suck. MW2 needed to fix a few things but it is not nearly as bad as Battlefield fanboys keep saying.
