Call of Duty
I hear my friends telling me Call of Duty the best game ever go and get it. As recession is i didnt want to waste my money so I first look at IGN reviews and it got a 9.4 out of 10 . I wasn't sure if I wanted to get the game so I borrowed it from my cousins. I beat up the campaign on veteran on the 1st try. I analyzed the game's multiplayer, zombies and campaign. Multiplayer gets a 3/10. Boring and repetitive. Campaign 1/10 Bad storyline and 6 hours is not worth a #7800 game. Seriously! The guns seem all the same, like smgs, assault , and light machine. There is no difference. Despite the fact that Nazis are one of the most viscerally satisfying, guilt-free enemies to be pitted against it gets tiresome mowing down fascists with a Thompson. The war went on for years, but in many places that was generally long periods of watching and waiting followed by action, which was often taking place in unremarkable forests or fields. The games were good for a time, but with no new material to draw from, anything that has to pump out more content will become stagnant. Even the tightest controls can’t make up for repetitive level design.

"h-hey guys look at me, maybe if i criticize all this really interesting games and focus only on their bad side, maybe people will think i'm really brilliant"

lol pathetic.

Guy God of war 3 is crap compared to God of war 1 and 2.
see this one, none of God of war series that beat the third chapter. Is the fact. It has the highest franchise.

I agree Fear is a terrible game and seriously overhyped. Watchdogs 2 was also crap in my opinion also

MistadeRegal:
Where are:
Immortals,
Freedom Fighters,
Soldier of Fortune,
Modern Combat,
Marine Sharpshooters,
Fear,
Lara Croft Tomb Raider,
Assassin's Creed etc?

The God of War series has become one of the most recognizable franchises in recent gaming. The character of Kratos has become one of the most recognizable in the industry, with plenty of parodies and tributes being made to the violent demigod. So stop saying trash. Can't wait for the 2018 series to come out.

Franchise doesn't make a game a good game. Playing GOW3 is like running around, to and fro, smashing every piece of furniture, in a two-room apartment. GOW3 is crap.

Guy go and play "last of us" and understand where am coming from.

I will always prefer games that look real and feature 50/50 combat ratio. Speaking of which GOW1 and 2 have those feels to them

You can also check out "far cry 3", "Uncharted 2"

Halo Series
Is anyone still genuinely surprised to see the original Halo
on a list like this? Surely by now we've all come to terms
with it, haven't we? Of course, out of respect, we still spit
and pound our fists against our chests, we shake our
cages violently and fling our poo at heretics who dare the
blasphemy of taking Master Chief's name in vain. But
deep down we know the truth, and most of us have quietly
accepted it in our hearts: the start of Bungie's formidable
Halo franchise had a few cracks in its supposedly
immaculate veneer. None which significantly damage its
place in FPS history, but enough to tarnish its image. When Halo first came out, it was without a doubt THE coolest video game I owned. The story was immersive, the firefights were exciting, the enemies were incredible and the first contact with the flood was horrifying. Halo Combat evolved had this sense of mystery about it that no other FPS game I had ever owned could emulate... The wide variety of weapons, vehicles, and characters was mind blowing to me and I also loved that there was a slight horror element to Halo: CE. Keep in mind I was 10 when I first played so it did not take much to scare me. Then Halo 2 Came out... It felt forced, the plot twist were confusing and to be honest not that much fun to be dragged through. The slight element of horror that I thoroughly enjoyed was replaced with aggravation and impatience trying to wade through the annoying wave after wave of flailing armed Flood. I'm pretty sure they must've realized the exploding flood looked like a scrotum

L. A NOIRE
us an open-world adventure, slap a Rockstar logo on
the box, and we'll come running. Throw in a properly
captivating plot, generation-defining facial animation
technology and set us free in an authentic recreation of
1940s Los Angeles, and we'll practically throw our money
at it. And so we did when Team Bondi dished up the
stylish crime saga, L.A. Noire, bolstered by a critical
response which the developer would have been rightly
proud of. But all was not well in the city of angels. For
every group of L.A. Noire fanatics unable to tear
themselves away from the amazingly realistic characters
and silky-smooth storytelling, there was a handful of
aspiring detectives who couldn't overlook the games'
underlying flaws. Flaws which unshakable fans chose to
bury under a thick layer of enthusiasm for this astounding
achievement in immersive narrative and mould-breaking
design. Many saw weaknesses where others saw
innovation, especially centred around the headline feature
of the game - the interrogation and investigation
mechanic. Nay-sayers called it limited and stifling, when
we had been assured of a dynamic investigative procedure
unlike anything we had experienced before. Visually, and
in terms of delivering an unforgettable cinematic
experience, Team Bondi exceeded expectations. Even the
cover-based gunplay was well above average for a third-
person adventure game. But criticisms aimed at the
cardboard cut-out feel of Los Angeles and a disconnect
between player and certain game mechanics, being
funnelled in a scripted direction instead of given the
freedom hoped for, left some as cold as a body found in
the trunk of an abandoned Cadillac Series 62. Oh, and a
quick sidebar: Lead protagonist Cole Phelps was (possibly
intentionally) an unrelatable, obnoxious twit.

You ain't serious, yes LA NOIRE has flaws, which game doesn't? To say however that it is overrated, I mean come on. The games facial capture is still unrivaled, the detective mechanics is till unrivaled, the interrogation mechanics (Where you have to look at the face of the character to see if they are lying or telling the truth) is still unrivaled. How can a game that set so many benchmarks be overrated?

As soon as I saw call of Duty I just knew he was talking out of his a - ss.
