Most of which who hate online play are terrible at it probably would be my guess
I'm decent at online play,I just get bored of it really fast. What keeps my attention is a tough campaign.

For me it's just because I love stories. Video games are another way to tell a story. They do have that extra sport like attribute to them too though, which is why online can be so much fun.

I love great stories/campaigns (Uncharted 2, Heavy Rain, MGS4, etc..) but I alos love some great online play..

Modern Warfare 2 WASN'T great online play.. Perks and all that other gimmicky bullshit ruined the game.. I actually had more fun with MAG than I did MW2..

Fact is, MW2 is no where near COD4. Bad Company 2 is better than MW2 as well.

^^^^^^ +1

Not to mention that Modern Warfare 2's story was about as schizophrenic as they come. It was like they said "here's all these cool set pieces and action sequences that we want to have, now weave together a story for them. Any story, seriously, any one".

Most of them have gotten rid of all of their invites already. (The early invites that is, anyone can get in Monday with a copy of Halo 3:ODST).

I got mine from Bungie's site on Friday but they're done with that. I think they gave out about a thousand. There's like 20,000 people total on the Beta right now but tomorrow that'll probably jump up to a million or more.

bad company blows. the guns look like cartoons. the only thing that is cool about it is the number of explosions and destructible environments. im willing to be those who like bad company are michael bay fans.

Bad Company 2 is awesome IMO.

I hate, hate, hate, Michael Bay.

I also wasn't a fan of the first Bad Company but the second one I think is a really solid large scale shooter.

I agree, takes alot of teamwork and patience to be good at BC2.

I think it is but JMO.

Mostly don't have to deal with the douchebags you play with in MW2. If a guy is camping in a building, blow the damn building up.

I've had MW2 since the day it was released. I play it a ton when I find the time. Only on 3rd prestige, so that'll tell ya time is hard to come by. I got BC2 the day it was released, played it 3 times, and it sits on the shelf.

Like I said before, put MW2 playability and graphics with BC2 gameplay and maps, and you got a perfect game, but I just can't stand the choppy graphics on BC2. It's like N64 all over again.

i dont mind sci-fi. but maybe thats it, i just never cared for the story and just played through to get the achievement. i guess it felt like there were just random monsters everywhere with no real reason.

That's probably it. Halo has a nice deep universe if you get into it. I'm not saying it's the greatest story telling in the world (it can't be because it aims for a broad audience) but it is a pretty solid one that I find entertaining.

I don't have problems with people not liking it though. Different scents for different gents.

If the new CoD game lets me blast the shit out of unarmed pedestrians like MW2 did, I'm TOTALLY on board!

COD MW2 was a terrible game. It has had so many glitches in the multiplayer that it is not fun to play. The first 4 months the game came out every day there was a new way to cheat. Anyone could drop care packages all day. MW2 was also ruined by K/D Ratios. I get bored sitting in a bush waiting for someone to walk by. If you like a game like domination its ruined by playing people who don't want to win and instead just want to spawn camp. Battlefield is an amazing multiplayer. If you can find a decent team and four player squad who works together can dominate a match. There are a few boring maps but most of them are enjoyable. I don't think the graphics are bad at all. Battlefield is a slower more team based game you can't run down the middle of a road no scoping everyone. Also map packs are free and the demo pretty much got rid of all the glitches. BTW no one can take me and my clan in RUSH.

What i am really looking forward to is Red Dead Redemption.

I wouldn't say it is a horrible game, just flawed. If you had the wide open maps of BC2 with MW2, it would be so much better.

And I agree on RDR

Glory Days I don't camp but 90% of people on COD these days are too worried about their K/D and just camp especially in matches like Domination they dont care about winning only kills

If someone camps....and kills you more than once in that camping spot...you must just suck.

Because really if they dont move...and you know where theyre at...how can you not come back , flash bang them and knife em. Easy
