This is not a thread for CoD bashing, I don't care what you think of the game. I'm looking for a few people who play on Xbox 360 who live in the US and who DON'T SUCK. I'm so tired of being at the top of the entire lobby in Hardcore TDM and still losing because the teammates Xbox Live decided to stick me with can't help but go horribly negative. Leave your GT here or message it to me and we'll get together and see how it goes. My GT is "Code Magick".

When I get good enough I'll join you. I own the game but have yet to play it. Been playing Borderlands and the latest Battlefield.


Feel free to add me though: DrBan3

Borderlands. Really addictive and far less structured than the real FPS's

Now you see, if this were on the PC, I would definitely have added up. ;) Unfortunately though, I suck, so I wouldn't be much use to you.

BF3 seems to have me more hooked then MW3 atm though.

So if anyone's on PC, and fancies watching me regularly kamikaze a fighter jet, add me up. Username is the same on Steam/Origin.

Judging solely from campaign mode, I like Battlefield far more than COD 3. COD seems to be less of a challenge thus far, as the checkpoints are reached pretty easily. Didn't seem that way with BF, but then again, I haven't gone very far with either of them. I got so hung up on downloading and trying out demos that I neglected the games I actually bought.. :|

Too many...
This is one of the reasons I stopped playing MW3, along with bad graphics, fake fog that penalizes picture adjustments in order to stop people from increasing brightness to get an advantage...only that's not the only thing it disrupts, inaccurate sounds in Dolby Digital, "picture frame" point of view, and on, and on... The rank matching system is so messed up! If you're a good player, you somehow seem to always get matched up to a clan of players to balance things out, only you will most likely be at a disadvantage with your teammates...which means you will most likely get dominated. I have absolutely no idea why it does this, but there are plenty of people talking about it. This happens a lot for me in single player online, but if I'm playing with a guest, or online friend....you can forget about it! Good as useless. Funny how this thread showed up right after almost throwing my controller through the projector screen with this game. I end up putting Black Ops only to feel as if it's a new game. The best Modern Warfare series is the 1st one I play on my MBP.

Played more of MW3 tonight, and have to say that I really don't like it much. There are some of the dumbest constraints and idiosyncratic character faults I've seen in a campaign mode game. Your "team mates" pretty much stand there getting shot, just waiting for you to take out an entire platoon, for one thing. Then there's the point that while you can take a flying leap from a building into a helicopter and such, there are times that you can't do something as simple as jumping on top of a very short canister or crate, or even jump over a waste high metal railing.

It's like everything has to follow a very repetitive programming construct. Boring.

Maybe online play is the way to go with this game, but I just figured that I'd get my feet wet with campaign mode. I thought the game would have more of an "open" world feel to it.

Once again, this thread is for providing GT's so I can have someone decent to play with. If you play MW3 on the Xbox 360 and feel you get more kills than deaths most of the time, leave me your GT. If you have something to say about the quality of the game or its players, start your own thread. Thanks.

I'd be happy if Assassin's Creed III was available on Mac.
