Honestly, how can you guys not be sick of call of duty? Have the games changed much since MW 1? I just don't get it.

I'm tired of it. I'll still rent it to go through the motions on the SP, but I still don't like playing MP in the current MP world so those games really don't appeal much to me anymore.

I'm saddened by the slow death of SP. I'm hoping it makes a comeback at some point.

I picked up Dirt 3 last night. It seems ok so far, only played for a few minutes though. As for COD I'm off that bandwagon. Battlefield was just too good with the environments and team strategy aspect. I can't go back to the random running around and shooting of COD.

I agree. Remember when multiplayer features were sometimes just a gimmick? Now sometimes it's the single player aspects that are the gimmick...

I still play COD4 pretty often. It might be the best Xbox360 multiplayer game ever. None of the CODs since are even close.

I've wondered this, but for some reason I really don't get sick of it.

Played Fallout 3 for about an hour. It was nice.

None of those games have a yearly release cycle (except sports), which means they have more changes.

Anyway, I'm glad people like CoD. I have nothing against it.

I'm more pumped for Battlefield 3. CoD is nice for fast games and map rotation...but overall I prefer Battlefield's larger maps, vehicles, and different player options.
