    I'm not saying that at all. I'm just saying that video gaming is going in a direction focused simply on quick fun gameplay, less and less on storytelling. Which in my opinion, is a decline.

    Leave it at that.

    I think that Halo has had a good connected story line through there series. Call of Duty on the other hand doesn't have to much of a story line. Call of Duty 4 having one more than 1 and 2 though. How much of a story line can you put in a FPS war type game. You don't see any racing games with a story line either.

    That's cuz racing games are sports games. Guitar Hero doesn't have a story now does it? Racing games are meant to simulate racing, sports games are meant to simulate a certain sport, and guitar hero games are meant to simulate playing guitar. There's really no way you could incorporate a story into them. So your comparison doesn't really work

    And if i'm not mistaken, Half-life has a good story, doesn't it? Bioshock has a good story doesn't it?

    But maybe FPS games like Call of Duty are in fact like a racing game. The goal is to simulate being in a war. But then they should be more like Rainbow Six, which has tactics and stuff. Real wars aren't won by somebody running around with a gun killing everyone are they?

    hmm

    okay, I take back my statement about Call of Duty 4...but not Halo. It's still a pathetic excuse for a game.

    It's a freaking game dude...not meant to reflect on real life. Halo 3 defiantly doesn't have to follow real war tactics for 1 huge reason...he's fighting aliens which is very very from being realistic .Also not all game should follow the same structure..if they did that would cause a gaming crash because everyone would get bored of them or at least severely hurt the industry. Following the same structure is what's going to cause the WW2 sub-genre to have a fallout and hopefully devs shy away from it and if devs keep pumping out FPS that genre will have a fallout as well.

    @ Trunks: Was your intention to list all the consoles? If so your missing a few.

    I was going for the more populated systems. I was also thinking about doing a more thorough review on them too. A better written one, this one was kind of rushed I didn't really double check my work. I plan on starting reviewing some games too. So if anyone has any tips on reviewing it would be appreciated.

    I'm not gonna bother arguing with you any more because you refuse to see other people's way of thinking.

    I made it clear that it's my opinion. You keep trying to change it. That's whats going on. If you don't agree with what somebody says you keep annoying the hell out of them until they cave and agree to whatever the hell you're trying to say.

    So just drop this whole thing before you piss me off any further, cuz i've had just about enough of you and your crap

    cry more, you have no power so getting mad is only going to lead to you getting infractions and me laughing at you for getting them.
