@db1331, While the games you've mentioned are fantastic, and hotly awaited, not everyone has decent taste in games, unfortunately. Tons of people are either stupid or nine years old, and buy games on social appeal, not actual merit. So, to the Great Unseen Maw of the consumer marked, CoD is the biggest thing since the ability to breathe air.
@Phazon117: Been there, done that. It's actually not horrible if you are comfortable with firearms at all. I'd call it equivalent to a medium-gauge shotgun. I'm a piss-poor in-game sniper, but a crack shot in reality. The guy you hear muttering "stupid game that would never happen in reality" over your headset, thats me, being angry at a gun for being shit at distance.
Absafuckinlutely Arkham asylum. I'm still trying to convince friends of its unrelenting awesomeness, and sadly, it fails... That game deserves more credit, this coming from someone abhors superhero games...
Shooting shi... i mean stuff. This one time i went shooting with some friends, and one of them nearly lost his leg to a .357 Magnum. He alsmost shot himself in the knee. instead, he shot DIck Cheney... Kidding. he hit a turkey.
