Who's buying this shit anymore? The last game I got was the original MW2. None of my friends have bought CoD games in ages. Am I just in the wrong friend circles?

Nah fam, you and your friends are just getting old. It's the kids these days who are suckers for buying cash-cow and money milking games. Because they are kids and don't give a shit about money with respect to quality.

I think it's a little about how they don't know better either, and there's no better options. You and I remember when multiplayer games used to be great, but if nowadays they're all shit, what option do they have?

"Because when every game's shitty...

...No game is."

~Syndrome, probably.

Heat level critical.

I think there are fairly good odds none of my gaming friends have ever bought a CoD game.

Not that we all play amazingly refined games, there is plenty of junk and regret-ware, and a lot of other FPS games - just no one ever got into CoD.

I am.on the same page, i finished the campaign on my x360, then tried just once multi-player, and it was full of cheaters.
