Lets see,

- Modern Warfare (you may not think this is copycatting, but after maybe 5 or 6 WWII games, going to Modern Warfare is a bit odd)
- Rank System (do i need to explain?)
- Class System (Up to this one, there has never been any form of classes in a CoD game)

there are probably more i'm not thinking of.

I started up Team Fortress 2, it worked.

but srsly

Call of Duty United Offensive was easily the best CoD game ever made, followed up by CoD2. Then we get cod4 which is a bf2 wannabe game which takes the concepts of balance and teamwork, and ignores them completely. With the perks system you get stuff like martyrdom, last stand (yes, when i snipe someone and they fall down to a place I cant see, it pisses me off) 3x Frag, and sonic boom, along with countless others, you get gameplay that involves mindless, skilless, and pointless killing. Add in the Airstrike and Helicopter system and shitty maps and you get pure fail.

The Single Player game has more replayability than multiplayer. It takes longer to beat the game than to get to level 55, and arcade mode allows you to play it several times without getting bored. Levels like death from above and all ghillied up give an important break from the rest of the game, and character development is wonderfully done. The ending comes almost as a surprise (i knew it was impossible to kill that fucking chopper) but it closes the game beautifully. As the first CoD game with a fictional story, it is well thought out and really involving.

Multiplayer gets a 3/10 for it's shittiness, at least it's not as bad as halo.
Singleplayer gets an 8/10 for being pro, but not as good as the half life games.

I beat the game in five hours, while have played MP for twenty on one account and have only level 48.

firstly, wow draws the biggest crowd of gamers

secondly, if you play your games on a 360, you are not a gamer

thirdly, it draws a huge crowd of screaming kids

fourthly, the weapons seem horribly unbalanced and it doesn't have anything in it that hadn't been done better in the early nineties.

Fifthly and finally, halo gets huge hype for being a fairly average game. If it weren't for halo, nobody would buy a 360, and microsoft would have a failing console, so they have to throw money at reviewers and advertisers, resulting in a higher metascore than TF2.

so what's good about it?

... You can say whatever you want about halo, the truth is that there are millions of people that play the game. Either they all like shitty games or maybe you are just too stubborn to realize a well made franchise like halo

no

about 20 of my friends were halo addicts, i've told them about TF2, some of them I've bought TF2 for, and i explained how halo wasn't that great. Now they all play TF2.

the problem is that people are lemmings, they hear halo is good, so they think it's good.

So what can we establish from that little fact?
