When I picked up my copy from Gamestop this afternoon, there were news crews outside. I didn't realize why until I saw this story online.
The worst part? The dumbass ejected his first round after trying to chamber twice in a row.
What intercourse ing idiot tries to chamber 2 rounds? This isn't a movie, intercourse tard. Learn to operate your intercourse ing firearm. You only operate the slide once per operation of the weapon, and that's during the initial loading. There is no reason (outside malfunction) that you should be manually operating the slide after the initial load. Even reloads should occur with one round from the previous clip still in the chamber.
I'm more surprised that you actually got to be close to a news story.
Its a good game but it certainly not worth dying over O.o

I like how you guys talk smack about MW2 and 3 being similar
And you buy Pokemon and discuss the living poop out of it
When it really only has minor changes game to game
Yes they are similar
That doesn't mean the games aren't fun as hell
At least I never purchased two versions of the same game because one had ten different characters in it
I BETTER GET BLACK TOO SO I CAN GETZ THE OTHER LEGENDARY OLOLOL
Hypocrites.

To be fair, Pokemon does bring tons of new things each generation (Pokemon, items, attacks, abilities, lots of Pokedex data, etc). And if you want to take it to the next level, the main franchise gets updated almost every four to six years.
I haven't liked Call of Duty since CoD2, probably because multiplayer that focuses on killstreak bonuses has a nasty side effect of encouraging camping(trying to argue this is like trying to disprove gravity, j/s). People want to keep their streaks, so they just chill in a intercourse ing corner. It's what it is.
I 100%'d MW and almost did the same to MW2. I really tried to get into these games, but the multiplayer just plain killed it.
It's a legit strat and all that but the realism(lol 1-2 shots i'm dead) adds to the pooptiness. You feel powerless. In Halo, I can fight back if someone starts shooting me. Can't do the same in CoD.
@Chris:
Each generation also switches up the mechanics a bit.
If I ever did get MW3, it'd be for the campaign and Spec Ops.

Actually, you got it backwards. It's more like people talk smack about Pokemon being similar...
...yet they freak out when a new CoD comes out. Seriously, Pokémon fans don't raid the game stores the second they open then take the whole day off to stay home and play their game. That really amazes me, how they can get a game that's essentially an expansion of the last game they had and play it like it's the coolest new thing in the world.
Not every fan purchases both Pokémon games; I never have. Only instance where I have the two parallel versions is in FireRed and LeafGreen, but that's just because one was given to me years after I bought the other one. And to challenge your point slightly (even though I still don't fully agree on getting both versions at once), they're starting to add even more changes between the versions than just the "characters" in it. Who knows how that will turn out should they make a 6th generation.
Plus, there's a greater change between Pokemon games (going by generation) than between CoD games. Just look at the time between releases, CoD has a new game what, every year? Pokemon has a new game every
4 years, not counting the rehashes and remakes.
CoD seems like the kind of series where you'd keep taking your game back to the store and trading it in for the newer one with a discount.
So in reality, it's the CoD fans who are hypocritical. Especially with the amount of time some of them spend on the game per day. It's insane.

We can do that because we have jobs and money. Some take the day off work, and we will purchase our game as soon as we'd like, with money from said jobs.
Pokemon fans have to wait for their mom and dad to get it for them for Christmas or their birthday, or for mom and dad to take them to the store to spend their allowance/ trade-in credit. And they're usually not allowed to stay home from school for a video game, because yes attendance counts in sixth grade young man.

Woah there. I haven't seen any CoD fans cracking on Pokemon. I'm not even cracking on Pokemon, I'm drawing parallels between that game series you want to crack on and the one you have a hard on for. But I've seen this poop talking on MW all over the place over the last few weeks.
And there are major changes from game to game. MW1 was (of course) modern, WaW was WWII, Black Ops was Vietnam. Yes, MW2 and 3 use the same period settings; they're direct sequels. Pokemon games are "Let's move over here to this nearly identical landmass that we'll rename." Oh yeah, and all the new things Pokemon adds. This time berries! Maybe a bike or a surfboard or some poop! CoD adds new weapons, play modes, characters, and settings.
And let's not even talk about story.
And here's the thing: I don't even dislike Pokemon. I've played through two of them- I've been the best like no one ever was. I'm just saying that some of the poop talking on MW isn't just "I can't get into it/ I don't like it." That's fine, that's a taste issue. But when people start trying to point out all kinds of epic flaws, they really need to look at the series that they love and evaluate what similarities there are instead of just going MW2.5 AMIRITE GUIZE AM I COOL COUNTERCULTURE YET

Campaign in this game is pretty great. There's [spoiler] a gun fight on a plane as it's going down, so you're bouncing around and hitting the ceiling. It's reminiscent of Inception, whom they obviously stole the idea from. They have a few really great set pieces like that, and some great popcorn moments.[/spoiler]
And yeah, Spec Ops is pretty fun this time around as well.
I won't argue about killstreaks and camping. What they did to help balance things out is add support streaks, which is based of how many kills you get despite how many deaths you've had. Kill Confirmed helps with that as well. When you shoot someone, you have to run over them and collect their dog tags to get the kill.
There's also a deathstreak called "Revenge," which shows exactly where the last person who killed you is. Things like that help discourage camping. As for the "realism," I can see where you're coming from. If someone gets behind you, you're pretty much done. You can always tell the people who play Halo who have picked up CoD: they're the ones jumping all over the place.

You apparently haven't noticed the insanely high amount of elementary and middle school kids who prefer CoD over any other game. Seriously, open your eyes. There are a TON of them. You're making a generalization that Pokemon fans are just a few years out of toilet training while CoD fans are corporate business man. Try again.

Again, open your eyes. I see it all the time. CoD fans say Pokemon is too repetitive. It's everywhere, and if you haven't seen it, that's not my fault. Maybe the gamers around you are different than the ones in my area, but I doubt that's the case. There's poop talking on Pokemon everywhere. It's on every game, and you just don't see it because you agree with the CoD fans. Okay.

Different wars. Different regions. New characters. New Pokémon. New weapons. New attacks and abilities. You're seriously making a blatant double standard here and you have absolutely no basis. They're both the same basic idea of "Catch/kill 'em all!"
I seriously CANNOT see WHAT your basis of argument in that last paragraph was, since you proved nothing at all that you were trying to prove. Not to even mention Pokemon Black/White are set in a totally different country than the previous games. They both do the EXACT SAME FUCKING THING.

You've played only TWO of them and you're calling them out? It would be better if you played none of them. What two did you play, RBY and GSC? Because those are more like your MW1/MW2 if anything, since GSC was essentially an extension of RBY without being a direct sequel.
I can't really get into the whole series of CoD because the games really don't seem that different to someone who's not a fan. The same could be said about Pokemon. If I was going to play a CoD, I really wouldn't give a flying intercourse which one it was. With Pokemon, it's the huge graphical changes that help to differentiate which version you're playing (look at Red next to Black), otherwise the same argument could be made.
If you're not a fan, the games look the same. I'm not a Final Fantasy fan, and they have how many intercourse ing games in their series? And people compare like "XII is better than XI" and I don't know what the intercourse those numbers are, nor could I differentiate between ANY of the games because I haven't played them.
DESPITE ALL THAT, Going that crazy for the new CoD on release day is still outrageous. I can understand casually driving out to Gamestop or whatever that afternoon, grabbing the game, playing for about an hour or two, then putting it down until the morning. I do that when a new Pokemon game comes out. I don't let a next-in-series video game dominate my life for 24 hours, losing sleep and work over it and whatnot. Why can't those CoD fans stick to playing the new game when they have time to do it? It'll only become obsolete in a year anyway. Don't rush, you have plenty of time to play the game over again.

Just saying open your eyes over and over isn't make a point. I'm not basing opinions on "people in my area." That would be dumb. I'm basing it off of larger samplings and what I see on gaming blogs. I've never seen an article on Kotaku called "Ten reasons to hate Pokemon." The visceral need you have to protect your interests to the detriment of all others is what I'm calling you out on. And I think playing two different generations all the way through, and part of a third, is enough to form an opinion considering the time dump it takes. How many Prestiges have you gone through in MW? It doesn't make much sense to try to call me out on my lack of knowledge of your series when you seem to have spent so little in mine.
People get CoD on day one because of the structure of the mp. In Pokemon, you spend dozens of hours offline building a team before you go head to head against human players. In CoD MP, the only thing that counts is online time. Getting it day one gives you a more even playing field.
And yeah, I call out Pokemon players for being young, because it's a funny stereotype that always gets Pokemon people riled up. But it has it's basis in truth. By it's very rating, it's more difficult for a 12 year old to buy/ obtain CoD than Pokemon. Of course both games cover a wide swath of demographics.
Really, don't try to defend the story. C'mon, if you think they are equal, you've deluded yourself. Seriously, MW is Tom Clancy on steriods. Pokemon games aren't about the story, and that's fine. But the single player MW campaign is.
And as for your final point, people are free to spend their time however the intercourse they want to. You don't get to bash a game just because some people lose sleep playing it. They obviously enjoy it.
Yeah. True enough BFB.
I guess I'm just not into realistic shooters.
After beating the campaign in MW3...I do agree it's a lot like MW2, but there were some nice additions here and there. The endgame was satisfying too. Trying multiplayer right now.

Just because you haven't seen something doesn't mean it doesn't exist, however I'm too lazy and/or preoccupied to go find some at the moment, so I won't go into that. Also, my basis is this, if you've played none of the games, you can't really make too much of a judgment of the series as a whole. But you've played the two most similar games in the Pokemon world, so naturally you sound like you think that all the Pokemon games are exactly like those two, and you feel your point is 100% backed up. It's not.

American kids are so spoiled these days, their parents usually don't give a intercourse and will buy them whatever they want. It IS just as easy for a kid to get CoD, these days. But it wasn't that way several years ago.

Well, I'm not lazy. I searched Kotaku for "hate" and "pokemon" together. I got nothing. You don't have to look very hard to find a CoD hate thread/ article.
You still try to gloss over the fact that you have spent almost no time in MW, but feel you should be able to make strong arguments against it. I played FireRed and Saphire back to front, and I spent about 50 hours in Diamond before boredom took over. I think that 250+ hours qualifies me to make some judgement calls about the series.
And you can say that it's absurd to miss a day of work for a video game, and you can say that it's ridiculous from a "bosses shoes," but the fact is that you have never had a fulltime, year round job. You get vacation, personal, and sick days, and you are allowed to use them how you see fit. And the fact is that people often have a lot of these days left over in November.
So before you try to attack my points as coming from ignorance, remember that you haven't spent anywhere close to as much time in MW as I've spent in Pokemon, you don't have a full time, year round job, and you've never been a boss.
That mindset is what frames most of the CoD hate that annoys me the most. You just jumped on a CoD hate bandwagon and went to town.
People have honest criticisms of the series, and I'm more than happy to cede that some of them are valid. You've been valiantly defending every aspect of your beloved series, even going as far to protect the story by saying I haven't seen it from your angle. That's not a valid defense of a story. If you got married holding a teddy bear, that doesn't make the teddy bear spectacular to everyone, just to you.
You have Pokemon all over your profile. You post about Pokemon, and in Pokemon threads, more than most people in this forum. And yet you find someone's fervor for another series absurd because you don't like it. That's the issue at heart, and the one I've been making since the beginning. So many of the people who have been hating on CoD for it's popularity exhibit the same fervor for other series that are just as flawed. That is what's absurd: that you are unable to look at what you do and like and see any parallel between it and the actions of CoD fans.
They may take different actions than you, but the motivation is coming from the same place.
Not to get into the argument, but it is super easy for kids to get CoD et al. This is coming from someone in the public school system five days a week. They're all playing it.
CoD is a poopty, jewed series now, but it can still be fun. Not at all worth $60, which nobody seems to realize so this craze will probably continue as long as 9 million people buy the game on release every time.
I've always thought the campaigns were boring, though; just a lot of going from point a to point b with a bunch of explosions and poop in between. Not a lot of depth to it. The multiplayers usually broken in some way, too. Plus the whole kill streaks thing.
tl;dr the game is on par with flinging poop at your friends but can still be fun

You don't play multiplayer? So you just pay $60 for a 6-hour campaign? :U

I paid $60 at the beginning, yes, but not per month.

Month, year, it's still money you have to pay over and over again to keep playing the game, which you already paid an unnaturally high amount for.

Alright Kayo I'm going to try to be as nice as possible. Don't QQ.
You're
acting like a intercourse ing dippoop and here's why:
To begin with, Call of Duty does not require a monthly fee. Nor does it require a yearly fee. This last post of yours desperately tries to save your argument by equating each sequel to be in essence a yearly "fee" of sorts but unfortunately it doesn't quite work that way, please stop being so ignorant. Modern Warfare 3, is not Modern Warfare 2, and Modern Warfare 2 is not Modern Warfare. Call of Duty 1 is not Call of Duty 2. You have virtually no experience with this franchise but you're making all these assumptions about it like you've 100%'d some of the games like I have, when you know next to nothing, and your argument is evidence of this.
Secondly, you don't even understand why BFB brought Pokemon into the equation, do you? He did that because many of us here are knowledgeable enough about Pokemon to know that each game retains the same core gameplay from the original games. Each game has more content, slightly different mechanics, more "characters"(pokemon or otherwise), but its still the same turn-based monster battle collecting RPG. We still BUY it even though we know its more of the same. CoD fans do the same thing. Each game has its own thing going on. See what's going on here?
I'll reiterate for you: CoD fans aren't paying a yearly fee to play the
same game.
Using that logic, every main series Mega Man game is the exact same game. Every Crash Bandicoot game is the same game. Every Spyro is the same game. Oh hey those Uncharted games? Same exact game.
Sometimes fans want more of the same, sometimes they don't, Kayo.
It's not a matter of "more of the same." It's a matter of next to no effort being put into the game because people will buy the game anyway and just praise it as being so amazing when it's usually just mediocre at best.

I know you're just making a point, but I think even that only really applies to Mega Man, since that was like what Capcom is doing to Street Fighter today only on a smaller scale. (。◡ °)

Sounds like you're kind of on the same page I am. The games really aren't worth having orgasms over the morning on release day, but for some reason people do it anyway.
It's just bizarre.

Hey at least they put the effort into making a campaign that yes, is different from previous CoD campaigns. They also tweaked a few things like BFB mentioned earlier. Also, what? Fan reception for this game is generally mediocre at best. Haven't you been paying attention? Look up metacritic user reviews. The CoD community in general isn't praising it as being amazing.

Not quite. Street Fighter updates are just that, updates. Not seperate games. Each Mega Man entry was a different game. Different bosses to fight. Different level design. Different mechanics. You have to see where I'm going with this. It isn't difficult. Equating Modern Warfare 3 to say, Super Street Fighter IV, is pretty difficult considering not just the genre barrier but the fact that MW3 offers far more content than SSFIV does when compared to their previous entries

Opinions are like poop holes Kayo. CoD is breaking records across the board so they have to be doing SOMETHING right, right? I'm not a fan of it like I said earlier but at least I'm not ignorant of this.
This is you: "People like a game franchise I don't like. I don't understand why people like it when I don't."
Have you ever considered asking a CoD fan why they enjoy CoD?

I can understand enjoying one game of it, but the about of orgasming people do over it is just insane. It's out of proportion at least by a tiny bit.

What the intercourse are you talking about? You've spent hours upon hours upon hours of your life talking about Pokemon and Smash Brothers, and you keep trying to give people poop about being excited about CoD.
And why do you keep saying orgasming?

Go make a CoD board/thread then if you want to talk about it. There's a reason I talk about Pokemon in the Pokemon board and Smash in the Smash thread. Maybe it's unfair that there is no dedicated CoD discussion thread (as far as I know) so why not go make an official one in Console Gaming or wherever?

When did I say I needed a board? When did I say it was unfair that we didn't have one?
How do you keep missing the point of these posts?
It's simple:
You have game series that you love and dedicate time to, but you want to talk poop on a group of people that do the same thing with a game you don't like.If the discussion point of this thread has turned away from the original post, that's fine. Don't try to start mini-moderating.

"You discuss the living poop out of Pokemon" etc. well yes, because we have boards for those that I do it in. Obviously.
However I'd like to point out that in this thread, YOU in fact were the one who began bashing Pokemon and its fans. I mean, you may call that entire fanbase a bunch of hypocrites, yet you present exaggerated and basically untrue facts about a series that you never played much of either.
See, people get excited about Pokemon... IN FUCKING POKEMON DISCUSSION BOARDS ON A FORUM. You don't see stories on the news about people stealing a Pokemon game, because let's face it. It's not that hyped in public. More people are excited for new CoD games than new Pokemon games. So you really can't make any claim about us discussing something in a place dedicated solely to discussing it. I see people talking about CoD EVERY FUCKING DAY. To the point where I'm intercourse ing tired of hearing it every time I walk in a hallway at a school or wherever. So yes, CoD fans talk the living poop out of their games.
You don't see people walking down the street talking about playing Pokemon seven hours per night.

Yep. Gay version of Smogon.
Though I do use Serebii for Pokemon news. I guess its more like the players there just suck ass compared to the ones at Smogon.

Also, Zero, there's nothing gay about Serebii. I've been there myself and people are pretty upbeat and know what they're saying. Just don't mind the very rare clueless members.
I'm talking competitively speaking but its not like I've been to the Serebii forums recently.
More like 2008. Gay statement retracted then.

I've been there too and no one knew what the intercourse they were talking about.
I pretty much only ever go to Serebii when a new game is coming out, since they're fairly good with breaking news and stuff.

250+ hours in a series isn't "hasn't played much."
The point isn't about the appropriateness of where you discuss Pokemon. You keep trying to make this Pokemon VS CoD. I'm drawing a parallel between the fervor people have for each series.
I made no claims about where you discuss Pokemon, only that you do so a lot.
I didn't bash Pokemon, only pointed out some of the same flaws in that series as people point out in CoD. Some of those flaws are inherent in most sequels. You, in fact, joined the CoD bash train by quoting Custom, and I brought up Pokemon in response to that.
I'm sorry your tired of hearing about it. There is one active thread on this forum concerning CoD. Your discussion has helped keep it alive.
