Who's picking it up at midnight tonight. I went to gamestop over lunch and finished paying it off. I guess they changes the first come first serve way they use to do their midnight releases. They now give you a group number starting at 3pm. I am in group 2 with only 20 people in each group I won't have to come back until 1145 and grab it and get out. I've got the next 2 days off so I should get a lot of gameplay the next couple days.

The new features look pretty cool and the gameplay I've seen online looks great. Hopefully the new leagues are fun. I also am in a top domination clan if anyone wants to play some domination on 360.

Only getting it for Zombies, not a fan of the story line direction.

Not me. The game stopped being fun a few games ago. Just way too repetitive.

Haven't played anything but college football on my ps3 in months. Work 2 weeks a month in ND. 2 kids. I also have no xbox (long story) so no.

I traded in all of my games when I got NCAA 13, but I've been itching to play some Call of Duty so will probably end up getting it.

It's spotty how good I am at CoD games. Modern Warfare I was legitimately badass, Black Ops I was alright, MW2 I was average, MW3 I was badass again, so will probably end up being just ok at this one unfortunately.

I get that too man, but it was opposite with me, Black Ops I had no problem playing team deathmatch and keeping my KDR above 1.0, MW3 I am at a .95. (I do play kill confirmed a lot and am top 4k in it, and I tag run like a bitch) but still. Nothing should make that big of a difference. I was just OK at MW2...so Ill see, I'm really hoping that they fix the spawn points in this one....in MW3, I can not tell you how many times I spawned into gunfire, or a turret, or a pred missile because it was all based on where your team was, not spawning you away from the enemy.

I pre ordered so i wouldn't have to wait in line or go to a store at mid night to buy it. It's like people who wait in line to buy the iphone, just pre order online.

I never play the campaign and i only get the CoD games to play with my college buddies. If it wasn't for the new zombie mode i wouldn't have picked it up. I stopped playing MW3 a while ago. I do agree that the games are all ridiculously similar and nothing really sets them apart. I liked the wager mode in black ops one, I'm not sure if this has that though. Either way, it'll be fun for a couple months.

Zombie is just a survival mode. Each level more zombies attack and get harder to kill. But they have 3 different modes, survival, team mode which has 2 teams killing zombies, the more your team kills the more zombies attack the other, last one standing wins, and they have a travel mode where you cruise around in a bus i think killing zoms. Honestly, best reason to get blops.

Modern Warfare and MW2 are the only ones worth a damn.

I would only pick up to play online with buddies. Rarely play video games anymore though and no longer have gold so I wont be picking this up.

I agree - no way is it worth it if you don't have a live membership.

i will say that having the elite status has increased my playtime and enjoyment. I am in a clan called STAB clan and we have about 50 members. the weekly clan ops challeges were a lot of fun

It may sound nerdy or crazy but between that and facebook i really have become good friends with a lot of these guys. most of our members are from ohio,wv, texas, chicago, boston,st louis and a few others. we are going to meet somewhere hopefully this summer as a group and kick it in person actually but the city is tbd.
it is also fun to battle w other clans who talk junk. im certainly not the kobe of our team by any means. more like bob horry

I played for about an hour or so. It's fun. Just learning the maps while everyone on the east coast is like level 20+! I like it though.
