Call of Duty: Black Ops 3

[Golgo]

Some American football (not football-football, joking-rugby football) star to star in next CoD, announced as follows:

"Marshawn Lynch is the perfect match for Call of Duty," Activision CEO Eric Hirshberg said. "I mean, he's a guy who fills stadiums, crushes competitors, and has a Beast Mode. What could be more CoD than that?!"

Outsourced PS3 and 360 versions confirmed. Also, the game will definitely not be coming to WiiU.

COD DLC advantage officially now sits with PS4. The franchise isn't what it once was but the move is still none the less a big coup for Sony over MS yet again

I watched the MP bit. My thoughts:

Levels look like past MP maps but have just been tweaked a little, & one looks like a Titanfall map rip off.
Wall running looks slow as hell, in fact, the game seems quite slow paced in general compared to what I consider its rival - Titanfall.
And wtf was that Terminator dude doing? He teleported behind his enemy & killed him. Is this Quake Arena or summat?

Basically, its ripped off Titanfall in too many ways. SW Battlefront gave me goosebumps while I watched, but I didn't feel any excitement watching this at all.
Big mistake Trey.
Should've gone back to WaW.
This is the end imo.
Roll on SW Battlefront & Titanfall 2 a few yrs down the line

I thought it looked poor, derivate and jaded too, and after the genuinely exciting and fresh prospect of Battlefront I'm baffled as to why Sony - or anyone - would want to throw money at this franchise for DLC timed exclusives anymore.

Yet agin MP shown from a LAN feed. Real world lag awaits!

This did absolutely nothing for me.

If they did a montage of the last three games I'd be hard pressed to tell which one was which.

They need to lay off the future setting, add dedicated servers and return to older era settings.

PS3 and 360 versions come with a download code for Black Ops 1. Why? Because these formats aren't getting BO3's singleplayer campaign

Oh wow that's horrible. Would have just been better to sell it at a budget price, BO1 seems like an odd idea.

Dont think ive ever actually played a campaign on COD games since MW2. Multiplayer is the main game on them for me anyway.

A bit of a slap in the face for those who have pre ordered it. Unless it's a genuinely amazing limited collectors edition for a franchise you're interested in we, as gamers, need to stand up to this by not pre ordering.

We've gone from buggy games with day one patches at best and being left broken at worst, to games being advertised with missing features. Game, Amazon and probably many more are still advertising the campaign in the PS3/XB360 version.
