I tried liking the game, but multiplayer sucks. Maps are too small and the weapons are too overpowered. I only enjoyed the co-op and single player. All the kids love it because it gets hyped up too much. As for the "3D" thing, I hate it. Just because Avatar made a ton of cash in 3D because they spent years on it and done it right, doesn't mean every other film will get a big pile of cash. Because 3D sucks, and 3D TVs as well they are a waste of money.
Fuck call of duty, fucking xbox fanboy serious cunts, can't be happy and laugh like a nintendo fanboy. arrogant pricks on xbox live. fucking serious assholes. FUCK YOU!!
That grossing list makes me want to cry that the great games ALA Arkham City and Skyward Sword are at the bottom and the piece of shit that is Call Of Duty is on top.
@ronvnkl232 its better than the first it is the best game this gen and uncharted 4 will be the best game of the next gen but lots of people say mass effect 2 and i just got that so it could be better i love making my own choices but in short yes uncharted 3 FTW
@Kingcameron66 while uncharted 3 is a great game i dont think its the best game of the gen i actually think the campaign in unhcarted 2 was better the puzzles of uc3 were too easy in my opinion fot me best game of the gen is skyward sword and i bet next gen thje next zelda will be the best btw have you played skyward sword or mario galaxy or galaxy 2 or twilight princess?
@ronvnkl232 mario galaxy is overrated twilight princess is ok havent played skyward sword but i want it SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO BAD cuz it looks good but their are so many games i want aswell im good at puzzle games so the puzzles are all 2 easy in all 3 uncharted games but i prefered the areas in uc3 i would get uc3 just 4 the deasert it was that good in my opinion
@Kingcameron66 what makes you think the mario galaxy games are overrated? do you think there is any 3d platformer that it is betetr than them? and in my opinion twilight princess was awesome yeah it wasnt as great as ocarina of time but it was still a great game
@ronvnkl232 how every 1 gave galaxy 2 10/10 which it dosent desrve a better platformer like sly cooper jak and daxter or my faves rachtet and clank so thats 3 and i think galaxy 2 is the same as galaxy 1 i mean the start says it all u repeat galaxy 1 i dont want galaxy 3 cuz it would be the same
@Kingcameron66 they wont make a galaxy 3 they only made a galaxy 2 because the fans asked for it besides they are not the same thing and both deserve a 10 out of 10 they are master pecies as for jack and dexter 3 its not really a platformer its more of an adventure open world game its kinda like the zelda of the ps2 i loved that game i havnt played sly cooper so i dont know and for ratchat and clank they are very similar all the time they are not as creative as the mario games
@ronvnkl232 mario games crative what are u smoking i said what i didnt like about the galaxy games i agree with jak 3 but mario is the same plot with the same stuff just in different gerenes hes in 2 platformers and RPG im not counting the sport games cuz those are real genres but mario is very uncreative
@Kingcameron66 yeah because mario bros 3 is the same as mario 64 which is the same as mario sunshine which is the same as mario world which is the same as the galaxy games which are the same as mario bros wii which are the same as mario kart really? mario games are uncreative? dude being a platformer doesnt make it the same thing every time mario games are completely diffrent they are nothing alike unless they are direct sequels like the galaxy games
@ronvnkl232 YO DUMB DUMB they are all platformers where you jump run and the difference wether its 2d or 3d or maybe some stupid gimick with the same plot plus mario is only 4 kids in the fact that he has never had a game where he matures and i would love to see luigi have his own game not counting luigis masion cuz it wasnt platforming but come on who dosent want luigi 2 have his own game
@Kingcameron66 you said platformers are always the same thing and you want a luigi platformer? are you serious? besides luigi's mansion feat much better to luigi style than a amrio type game and platformers arent the same thing all the time there are many diffrent things such as the art style the level design the concept of the game and such saying platformers are always the same would be like saying an rpg is always the same dude dont be stupid

@Kingcameron66 you are arguing with me at the same night....so....yeah.....hypocrisy anyone? besides i live in israel its almost 2 am now and its raining outside why should i go out at a night like that? dude its stupid and you keep ignoring the arguments
no first person shooters why are they so popular besides portal and metroid prime but atleast thoes are a little unique u play one call of duty you play them all
companies like activition and others only care about the money they can make....
look at nintendo, in ocations sega and double fine, they put emotion and effort into their games and that's what makes them successful, maybe not as much as call of duty but they don't care about the money, they care about their games and their respective fans, take mario for example...
they're good games, they put effort into them, once you finish them you feel so satisficed and so on, that's what makes
Another thing I find is, you mentioned how ps3 and xbox360 owners, do rarely reminisce about their older systems. And that is interesting, most nintendo fans do still own atleast one older gen console and still rave about the games on their nes, snes and 64, I know I do. When it comes down to it, it is about doing the best with what you have, not having the best to work with. The primitive graphics on the 64 in no way hindered the amazing experience we all had with OoT even till this day
Another example is, Dreamworks, constantly taking advantage of 3D animating and 3D movies, whilst Studio Ghibli or more specifically Hayao Miyazaki stays in the traditional 2D art, does the newest 3D technology make it better? I don't think so, whilst a game like CoD has the newest HD graphics trying to be as realistic as it can, a game like Zelda is trying something different, almost every game has different graphics all with a different style that is effective, that make the game beautiful.
I like to compare the video game industry to movies all the times. You know you have your blockbusters like Avatar with the most advanced CGI and everyone has seen it and everyone pretty much agrees it was good. There are games like CoD, then you have your art films, cult films, films that mean something to you, that not everyone has seen, that has an immersive story.
I had a wii and my dad tripped over it (GC control) and it broke. My mom decided to get me a PS3 and I said I want another wii but she said no. Now I have a PS3 and its games are ok but I really can't find good adventure games like I did on the wii :(. MY point: wii is better than PS3
@iconboysbiggestfan65 NO uncharted-action adventure Skyrim? Rachet and Clank Sly cooper Portal 2 wii is okay but PS3 FTW but hey opinions never will be facts
Honestly cod is just like wii fit or just dance. It hits the casual market thats why it outsells other titles like zelda, uncharted, and skyrim which obviously has way more quality. New direction the industry is going? To the casual market where all the $ is.
Call of Duty is popular for the same reason Twilight is popular. Twilight uses sex as their main selling point, if there were no shirtless muscle guys or sparkling vampires then nobody would care to see them. It's just that one sex element that keeps the series going. Call of Duty uses violence and warfare in a similar way. If it was less gritty and you shoot each other with nerf guns, nobody would play it. Although I agree that would be a stupid game, you get my point.
All in all, I think the minority of society who knows how to play a game based on what they like personally makes the sales of what are still good games. But the majority just wants the critically-acclaimed and popular games in order to fit in. Not to mention that some of the minority are people who like shooters because they like them, adds up. But then again this has been happening since gaming began. Plat-formers were popular back in my day and it was just a phase just like Shooters now.
After your discussion of game reviews, I went out to get some cheap and used games. Being a Sonic fan, I wanted to complete my Sonic collection and I was going to make some exceptions but just to see what everyone was talking about, I decided to get the infamous Sonic 06. And I'm going to tell you, I'm enjoying it regardless it was labeled as one of the worst games ever. Now, people are probably going to reply to my comment with anger but that would further my point that games are bandwagon.
Sales: quite simple actually. People who want to "fit in" with the community which unfortunately is most of our society today. It's easy to say that MW3 is an awesome game because your going to get an ass patting where if you say if something you feel is underrated is good, your going to get negative reception and be branded with something you don't want.
I mean, there have been plenty of games that have spawned the industry to become saturated with imitators. History repeats itself. Platformers had their heyday, so did RPGs, so have MMORPGs. But the constant is this: there are one of a few "great" games made in a certain style, and then there are all the other ones we've forgotten about or will forget about. So do you, as a game studio, want to just make money right now, or try to actually shape the future of videogames?
its because we live in an age of morons companies need to stop talking to the nintendo or sega didnt do it back then and nintendo still doesnt its because they dont wanna hear bs that critics have made
The reason CoD is so successful i because 1. It has great gameplay 2. It has hours of leveling/awards/prestige 3. because of the previous two its neutorious for being the game everyones playing(who ever heard of battlefield before #3?) 4. girls seem to be realizing its not going away and might as well join
Also the market is already and has been oversaturated with FPS's; maybe not multiplayer-based but there are too many fps's year after year
Well, 3D support is coming to more and more aspects of our everyday lives. The PS3, 360, and 3DS support it, Most TVs nowadays do, and I'm pretty sure the Vita will get an update that will allow it to, along with all the consoles of next generation. Oh, and PC does too.
@Ninjadude973 I already saw Battlefield 3 in 3D at the Sony Press Conference in 2010. I'm not going to lie, it looked fuckin awesome. Will this be implemented to all games in the future? That's the question... I'm not too sure, but I think it'll be an option.
@mooper11 lol im somewhat agree of course skyward sword is better but i bought mw3 on my wii because i have the headset and i needed an excuse to use it lol
I only bought MW3 because I had never played a CoD game. Honestly, I haven't even seen the reviews. I bought it just to give the series a shot.
I agree with your 3D analogy. Honestly, soon game industries are going to realize this and we're going to see a lot more variety, until one game formula emerges and all the developers flock to that same concept.
And people are so hypocritical; take Monster Hunter. People wanted something new, Capcom adds "lock on" and people bash the game for it!
@AGentertainment theres 3 reasons why you will get those comments: terrible internet capabilities on the wii, graphics, and the wii is not meant for "hardcore" games
@AGentertainment I already see it. People criticize me online and at school for the choice (like I had one; I only have a Wii), and it all harkens back to outside influences like you said. At the end of the day all this stuff about MH3 Wii being terrible is pointless BS; it is the same gameply. Sure a predator missile would've been nice, but the Free Aiming is a Godsent for the game. I'll take that over analog stick ADS anyday.
I hate these COD fanboys that came to this video. How did they find this? They search Nintendo to hate. I won't lie, I play COD and BF but I play Zelda A LOT more. The main reason is their fanbase. It's worst than ROBLOX's. Little, spoiled, whiny 8 year old kids.
At the same time, Call of Duty doesn't have much that can change in a major direction. That's what annoys me, yes its basically the same thing, but what do you expect? Shooters don't have a huge ability to change. And even if they change cod in the slightest, some people hate it. Look at black ops. They made the game slightly slower paced and everyone hated it.
who knows may be the multiplayer unity movement, if everyone will buy the new call and drop away the other maybe i will not longer be able to play with nobody so ill buy the new one
I don't like these games much. but if it makes people happy and they think its worth their 60$ i don't care. Just because I'm playing games on the wii doesn't mean I like casual games. I have 17 other systems to shut those FPS fanboys up.
@jakesaysknee Just Dance 3 hits the casual market most of the other games on the list doesn't touch, and Madden is Madden. Skyward Sword is amazing, but strangely it was the least hyped Zelda in years other Nintendo's 25th Anniversary concert tour.
@AGentertainment it was the least hyped zelda only because twilight princess was a dissapointment is was a 8/10 while most zeldas are 9s so people though link lost his mojo but they wrong but i stll havent played it but i want 2
It's marketing control over mindless sheep. I love the Zelda series, but didn't buy the last few games on the DS because I really didn't care for the controls, yet (hypocritically) I love Skyward Sword. I might not like all the changes of the Nintendo franchises, but at least they have the balls to change, so I support them anyway over Call of Duty. Another note: Do you notice any high profile Nintendo titles in bargain bins? If Black Ops and MW2 are great games, why are they in the bargain bin?
it was okay, shame though nothing much really changed, got bored of it fast after the first prestige, that it. But really who play the this game for story? mostly people wanted to go online and see the new weapon and perks and see what you can unlock. I got tired of all the argue in the game between and grown man and a kid. Pathetic
I dunno, ive liked call of duty since day one and through its competition with halo so I guess ive always been a fan. but personally i wish they would stop releasing new games and instead work on patching and refining one good call of duty. i guess thats a harder cash cow to milk.
I see your point when you say they look the same... The only logical explanation is "If it isn't broke, why fix it?" In my case, I've been buying war games (not necessarily FPS) for a long time, and I will continue to do so, no matter what the public thinks of it.
Also, just throwing it out there: I don't think the game made that much money in such a little time frame. How much of that was made with pre orders?
cod is always evolving in little ways. unless you play it all the time you'll just have to stick with misconceptions and false facts. i've bought 4 cod games and all of them are drugs. they're timeless gems. tired of them? wait a few weeks,months even years and pop it in and boom its still fun. this is just my opinion, just like every review or article. i think cod sells more than any other cause of the simple fact its so damn fun.
My question is can so may people be wrong? The gamers have spoken COD is what they want. I dont see a billion coming out of Zelda. Its called replay value.
@snake2006 thats a bit ill informed. if you only play a story mode, you'll still be killing the same people over and over again. multiplayer provides replay value. ssmb, mario kart provide the same
So I kill the same things over,but atleast I am working towards something, furthering the story. What does multiplayer accomplish, NOTHING. Oooh, I fragged my buddy XXX, oh I fragged him again, my score on the server is going to go up. Going to prestige soon. Whoop de do. I see no point in it at all. Multiplayer is a waste of time in my opinion. Which is why even if I had a 360 I wouldn't get a gold membership because it would be a waste of $50
@snake2006 AGAIN REPLAY VALUE. Once you beat a game you are done. MOD has both. Nintendo has to step it up. I own all 3 major systems my Wii gets very little use..I am playing Batman and COD, bot games are not on Wii
And Again WHOOP DE DO. I am not playing my Wii either. I have a PS3, and I am playing just the single player campains. I have been through Batman AC 4 times already, and I am not bored. I don't need stupid boring multiplayer to be entertained. If the game is good, I play through it multiple times. I am going through MGS2 again, and I beat that game atleast 6 times or more on the PS2. Again, I find no enjoyment out of multiplayer games, I don't waste my valuable time with it
@rokuterra Don't try passing off your opinion as fact, it just makes you look like a troll. Just because you don't think it's good doesn't mean other people do.
i am truely saddened by the lack of originality now-a-days. Mw3 is the exact same game as Mw2. Hollywood remakes the same films every 10 years. The worst part is that the public keep buying these games and watching these movies and don't want anything new. I think it's ridiculous that a gaming company can have this much success simply by producing a carbon copy of their previous game. Modern society sucks :(
@alexkfridges@alexkfridges you dont seem to understand why there isn't much variety. if you take a gamble a lot of money could be lost. it is different with a new IP as there is no expectations for it as of yet. mario will always be mario, cod will always be cod. now you know why spin offs of stuff always get crappy reception as it is a shadow of its original.
@NitromeSupporter I know that... my point is it shouldn't work that way! i am saddened that the only way the industries make games is if they copy their previous games becasue thats the only thing the public want, even though it's the same thing they have been playing!
Miyamoto once said, "I could make Halo. It's not that I couldn't design that game. It's just that I choose not to. One thing about my game design is that I never try to look for what people want and then try to make that game design. I always try to create new experiences that are fun to play. "
First person shooters are more popular because just the world of you being a hero or just being boss means a lot to the soul, plus killing stuff to get to one place is awesome, like arcade games, first person shooters always catches the attention of gamers, always
@AGentertainment I'd say the multiplayer is more of the reason, since every time a new COD game comes out most migrate to the newer game. And if people want to keep up, they'll have to buy it even if the single player never gets touched. If multiplayer patches happened instead of new installations this trend might not be so heavy.
i've played the CoD series since the first game, i actually think it's a fun series of games, i recently finished MW2 and was dissapointed at the ending being way too similar to the first MW one and i was "happy" saying "hey look, it ended the same way" at first bute, meh.
On the other hand i saw reviews of duke nukem forever and all the hate and what not but i actually enjoy it and was a fun game for me (ending sucked), even after reading all the bad reviews.
What have been the most successful franchises in the past 10 to 12 years? There was Counter Strike, World of Warcraft, and now the Call of Duty series. And what do these games have in common? The answer is simple. Multiplayer...
Games are becoming more popular, and online gameplay is becoming more accessible. People just prefer playing with their friends, and other people, rather than by themselves.
@AGentertainment because i think that the single player in modern warfare has a better history and the use of scripted sequences really drags you into the game and makes you care about the persons. Where in Battlefield 3, the single player, you go around the corner, shoot someone, then run 20 meter and then there is a cutscene, then you run a bit again, then a cut scene, and the cutscenes between the levels are boring and un-personal. The overuse of cutscenes can really kill a good history.part1
@AGentertainment part 2. Why i prefer battlefield's multiplayer: I like the realism, the teamwork, the large maps, the visuals, the sound design and the way you can kind of feel the weapon. I have nothing against the cod multiplayer, and can also take a small round just for the fun. I just think that the cod multiplayer is getting too unrealistic for my taste. :)
MW3 is nothing special. I own all the COD games, but then again, I own hundreds of a variety of games. I am glad I am not associated with the sheeple that buy it. Black Ops and WAW are better than MW3. Battlefield 3 is better than ALL the COD games.
@AGentertainment Yea TOO many. I feel like I can't complete them all in my lifetime and I have hundreds of games. You need to play Battlefield 3. Don't listen to people who say that it is similar to COD. In reality, they rarely make true military, large scale games like BF3. BF3 should NOT be grouped alongside COD. COD is like a casual unrealistic Quake III Arena style fragfest with a realistic appearing military skin and theme. BF3 is a true military style FPS.
@1:53 the answer to that question is, quickscoping. No big difference. Just MW2 with "upgraded" gameplay. -_- XD

Honestly cod is just like wii fit or just dance. It hits the casual market thats why it outsells other titles like zelda, uncharted, and skyrim which obviously has way more quality. New direction the industry is going? To the casual market where all the $ is.

Call of Duty is popular for the same reason Twilight is popular. Twilight uses sex as their main selling point, if there were no shirtless muscle guys or sparkling vampires then nobody would care to see them. It's just that one sex element that keeps the series going. Call of Duty uses violence and warfare in a similar way. If it was less gritty and you shoot each other with nerf guns, nobody would play it. Although I agree that would be a stupid game, you get my point.

All in all, I think the minority of society who knows how to play a game based on what they like personally makes the sales of what are still good games. But the majority just wants the critically-acclaimed and popular games in order to fit in. Not to mention that some of the minority are people who like shooters because they like them, adds up. But then again this has been happening since gaming began. Plat-formers were popular back in my day and it was just a phase just like Shooters now.

After your discussion of game reviews, I went out to get some cheap and used games. Being a Sonic fan, I wanted to complete my Sonic collection and I was going to make some exceptions but just to see what everyone was talking about, I decided to get the infamous Sonic 06. And I'm going to tell you, I'm enjoying it regardless it was labeled as one of the worst games ever. Now, people are probably going to reply to my comment with anger but that would further my point that games are bandwagon.

Sales: quite simple actually. People who want to "fit in" with the community which unfortunately is most of our society today. It's easy to say that MW3 is an awesome game because your going to get an ass patting where if you say if something you feel is underrated is good, your going to get negative reception and be branded with something you don't want.

I mean, there have been plenty of games that have spawned the industry to become saturated with imitators. History repeats itself. Platformers had their heyday, so did RPGs, so have MMORPGs. But the constant is this: there are one of a few "great" games made in a certain style, and then there are all the other ones we've forgotten about or will forget about. So do you, as a game studio, want to just make money right now, or try to actually shape the future of videogames?

The reason CoD is so successful i because 1. It has great gameplay 2. It has hours of leveling/awards/prestige 3. because of the previous two its neutorious for being the game everyones playing(who ever heard of battlefield before #3?) 4. girls seem to be realizing its not going away and might as well join
Also the market is already and has been oversaturated with FPS's; maybe not multiplayer-based but there are too many fps's year after year

I only bought MW3 because I had never played a CoD game. Honestly, I haven't even seen the reviews. I bought it just to give the series a shot.
I agree with your 3D analogy. Honestly, soon game industries are going to realize this and we're going to see a lot more variety, until one game formula emerges and all the developers flock to that same concept.
And people are so hypocritical; take Monster Hunter. People wanted something new, Capcom adds "lock on" and people bash the game for it!

At the same time, Call of Duty doesn't have much that can change in a major direction. That's what annoys me, yes its basically the same thing, but what do you expect? Shooters don't have a huge ability to change. And even if they change cod in the slightest, some people hate it. Look at black ops. They made the game slightly slower paced and everyone hated it.

It's marketing control over mindless sheep.

I might not like all the changes of the Nintendo franchises, but at least they have the balls to change, so I support them anyway over Call of Duty. Another note: Do you notice any high profile Nintendo titles in bargain bins? If Black Ops and MW2 are great games, why are they in the bargain bin?

Also, just throwing it out there: I don't think the game made that much money in such a little time frame. How much of that was made with pre orders?

cod is always evolving in little ways. unless you play it all the time you'll just have to stick with misconceptions and false facts. i've bought 4 cod games and all of them are drugs. they're timeless gems. tired of them? wait a few weeks,months even years and pop it in and boom its still fun. this is just my opinion, just like every review or article. i think cod sells more than any other cause of the simple fact its so damn fun.

The worst part is that the public keep buying these games and watching these movies and don't want anything new. I think it's ridiculous that a gaming company can have this much success simply by producing a carbon copy of their previous game. Modern society sucks :(

@AGentertainment I'd say the multiplayer is more of the reason, since every time a new COD game comes out most migrate to the newer game. And if people want to keep up, they'll have to buy it even if the single player never gets touched. If multiplayer patches happened instead of new installations this trend might not be so heavy.

What have been the most successful franchises in the past 10 to 12 years? There was Counter Strike, World of Warcraft, and now the Call of Duty series. And what do these games have in common? The answer is simple. Multiplayer...

@akdk95 Why?
AGentertainment 2 months ago
@AGentertainment because i think that the single player in modern warfare has a better history and the use of scripted sequences really drags you into the game and makes you care about the persons. Where in Battlefield 3, the single player, you go around the corner, shoot someone, then run 20 meter and then there is a cutscene, then you run a bit again, then a cut scene, and the cutscenes between the levels are boring and un-personal. The overuse of cutscenes can really kill a good history.part1
akdk95 2 months ago
@AGentertainment part 2. Why i prefer battlefield's multiplayer: I like the realism, the teamwork, the large maps, the visuals, the sound design and the way you can kind of feel the weapon. I have nothing against the cod multiplayer, and can also take a small round just for the fun. I just think that the cod multiplayer is getting too unrealistic for my taste. :)
