COD 6 in sainsbury's (Computer Game)

[giggirl]

Ah it's a first person shooter. Codswallop. Last one of these I played was Doom.

[SC]

yeah SeanMac.... how could anyone not register it???

it's apparently gonnna be bigger than Harry Potter and the Dark Knight... sign of changing times for media.

It's not surprising since most movies these days are remakes or just dog turd... bring on the team death matches, maybe we can have an ED one when people have copies...

I'll stick to Mario & Sonic

And there was me thinking COD 6 was some new and bizarre 'intelligence' unit of the police, extending CCTV camera monitoring into UK territorial waters (COD = Cameras On Divers), now that they seem to have all our land areas covered.

[Peckhamgatecrasher]

Snakes & Ladders anyone?

[mockney piers]

Its alias is MW2, and we all know there can only be one MadWorld!!!!

Or was she the 72nd one?

[vinceayre]

?26, I paid ?38 for my one from Amazon but they did deliver it at 10 o'clock this morning, very impressed.

[Keef]

Don't see what is so good about these games. Wander around shooting people, with bigger and bigger guns... Just doesn't really appeal to me.

Not saying I'm all mature or anything, as I'm not, I just don't really dig on these games.

[mockney piers]

It's not about the gunsbeing big, it's more like interactive cinema.

I'll tell you this from the first two levels, they've clearly been watching Generation Kill and someone loves the old school bond films.

[Sandperson]

No spoilers please Piers! I can't get a copy yet.

[mockney piers]

Sorry.

It's basically more of the same but without being worse and a few changes of scenery like a good sequel should be really.

Enjoy SP, it is excellent, and already earned my spurs on the multiplayer.

Anyone know if they're selling the PC version in Sainsburys or are PC users not in on the ?26 deal? Lord help me if I have to get a PS3!

[ratty]

Just Xbox and PS3. And are sold out at the moment - just been in! Have a day off and live next to Sainsbury's so I might be lucky today. Not gonna camp there or anything though. Manager said yesterday that queue of 300 odd people there the night before last!

Having nearly completed the campaign I have to say the plot is utterly ludicrous in the few occasions when I could even fathom it out, the film references are done with the subtlety of a sledgehammer, one scenario having been implemented from the same film pretty much identically about five years ago in a rainbow six game.

That said, who the he'll cares, it's all been so well crafted (ok apart from the one unforgiveable super focefield plastic orange tape in the snow, I had no idea that stuff was so strong, but then if you want free roaming buy operaion flashpoint or ARMA 2 if you're a PC type) and it fizzes along so slickly that it screams attention to detail (I even stopes to browse someone's book collection on the shelves of someone's burning house, oh a Jules Vernes fan, cool).

And multiplayer is instantly familiar to those who played the last 2 CODs, but just that bit tighter.

*That* scene is a tad disturbing though 'tis true.

[Sandperson]

I see Morrisons have it for ?25.99 and not as well publicised as the Sainsburys offering so there might be some there!

[ratty]

Just came in, in Sainsburys DKH. Does not look like they will be there for long though. Queue was getting big! Got mine! Luckily I was there buying butter and eggs!

[mockney piers]

Let me know when you want to team up on spec ops, get the feeling it's going to get very hard above regular.

[ratty]

Have not even plugged it in yet. Baby unwell! :(

[mockney piers]

Oh, poor thing (both of you). I'll be on til late so ping if you fancy it, though perhaps I'll let you get on with the campaign first in all fairness.

[Sandperson]

Got mine....finally.
