So, I just got my hand on a leaked copy, I like it alot. I just got my xbox flashed today, so I have been having fun. Anyone else hyped for it? I'm loving the story.

CROSSBOW. Other than that, not particularly excited. It'll end up as a rental. I haven't liked a Call of Duty game since 4. Hopefully Black Ops changes that.

MW2 sucked ass, so did WAW, but this one fucking rapes some babies skulls.

Hmn. That metaphor was so delightful, Anthrax, that I can't tell whether you actually liked it or not.
Anyway. I'm actually looking forward to this. There has yet to be a decent shooter set in a Vietnam-like setting, and I'm thinking this may finally be the one I've been waiting for. We'll have to see.

It was good, yeah it was messed up. And it is the only good nam' shooter out there, I love it,I will be buying the prestige edition even though I already got a copy.

Shellshock: 'Nam 67 had promising moments in that regard. It seemed like there was some writer/planner who wanted to take out the "wow!" factor, and replace it with a tense, dreadful atmosphere, but some over-active man-children decided that it can't be a good war game without exploiting every stereotype and cliche possible, meanwhile over-using swearing and retarded "tough" dialogue the whole time.
As for Black Ops, CoD's multiplayer is getting kind of stale. Tired of running around in circles hoping I'm not running into an enemy spawn or something, and I would kill for just a Battlefield-style mode where you have enemies spawning somewhere, your team spawning somewhere, and condensing the fight down to one area. The SP looks promising, though. This might be one of my rare rents.

 So here's to you Mrs. Robinson. People love you more- oh, nevermind. |

I played 'Nam 67 and Vietcong, but decent to say the least but the sequel to 'Nam 67 was just pure awful. I doubt a good Vietnam shooter will come anytime soon

Damn. I've never heard of Vietcong, but heard through the grapevine that Battlefield Vietnam and Nam '67 both sucked, and pretty badly. Perhaps I was misinformed?

I love Battlefield Vietnam, though it was not without it's faults. Hell, I still play it online from time to time.
Name another game where you can airlift a manned tank with a Huey helicopter, and fly into battle with the M60s on the heli blazing, rockets flying, and the tank cannon blasting holy hell upon the enemy?
