No I still like looking at high school girls.

That is just the point, looking.

There's always the "buy an AMD gpu and get Farcry 3" option. But then that costs more money. :roll:

Because consoles don't do expansions.

...and because they want to take advantage of your money.

I went over to a friends house who just got the game and and watched some of the campaign gameplay, not very impressed at all.:ohwell:

I got to say I've been playing and it's better than MW3 by far. The perks and guns are good so far. The drone is pretty deadly! First time I got it I killed 8 guys before they got me. I'd even go as far as to say it's better than the first BO game.

The code is quite optimized tbh. It's still just stupid COD of course, but if you see it as how the game performs, the devs did their job very well on the PC this time, it's all well and nicely done, props for them, they deserve it. Money always wins after all, and after selling crap for years and getting rich from that, they finally have a good dev team there.

Well, its non linear campaign shocked me quite a bit. It's ending depends on what you did throughout the campaign. Well, I did bad, ending is bad. :eek:

Everything.....and I mean EVERYTHING is going straight to hell. Time to get drunk and listen to Johnny Cash (Not that I needed an excuse.)

I'll bring some expensive brew... micro or european...maybe both. Then we can play the last good COD game (COD 2...that's Call of Duty 2, from like 9 years ago). Then we can play some BF and watch the world implode...
