For me its like this, spawn, die, spawn, die, accidentally kill a guy, die by his lame drop a nade when you die thing, spawn, be about to kill a guy and match end. I probably just suck at it but I play lots of shooters and I dont think theres a good enough matchmaking system, unlike halo(another game I hate, but the well designed online matching is sort of redeeming). I dont know, I guess I prefer more tactical games over the twitch reflex ones.
Same way i feel about it. But i think im still goign to pick it up. Seems like if you actually try you might live. I see some of my friends who are fairly good die after killing someone too. Gets annoying. I prefer halo =]

One of them is going to be Forza 2, no doubt.

I dont know which i should get for the other, Halo 3, or COD4.

Ive played COD3 and 1 on PS2 (single player, offline), and i freaking LOVED the game. Its badass. Id love to be able to play it on Xbox Live.

Halo 3, i dont get whats so special about it. Its just like fake lazer alien dudes as opposed to a realistic (kinda) military game. But for some reason, this lazer tag game is FCKING FUN!

I think im probably going to go with COD4 though, i could always get Halo later.
Get halo and cod4. Forza 2 comes witht eh premiuim pack now a days. =] along with 2k7 nba or nfl?

whats premium pack?

anyways the xbox i got comes with forza and that marvel game

im trying to decide if i should get cod3 or save up for 4

3 isnt old and its not bad at all, i might get halo instead though, because when you buy it, you get $20 off a year subscription of live

i get a free month trial of live with the xbox, so after the month i might just buy halo and live instead of cod

id buy either of the cod's used on half.com or somthing. i think im talking too much

4 is much much much better than 3. When you buy 3, and then play 4 at a friends house, you will hate yourself. Save up for 4.

For all of the people that say this game is bad online, you suck at this game....J/K

This game might seem that you die every second because its a really fast paced game. If you are used to GRAWII or other big maps games, then its going to feel weird at first. The maps are fairly small compared to other shooters but makes the online gaming much better and fun. I used to try and snipe kids all day long when I started playing, but now I run around and end up with 12-22 kills on average. It gets fun when you run around and find people just sitting there sniping your team members and you just walk up to him and stab him. This game is way fun, wait till you get enough money and get it.

Do I have to shake you? Buy 4. You're going to wonder why you WASTED your money on an older, weaker, less fun game. Plus if you asking about the multiplayer map size, you not going to be able to play with anyone online. Everyone who had/has CoD3 will be playing FOUR. GO BUY FOUR.

I think Circut City was giving away 3 with 4....check if they are still doing that (they probably are)

but just save up and buy 4...If you can't afford to buy more then one why would you buy the old one? then your just gonna have to wait even longer to get the new one.

is that the only reason you want 3? because it's cheaper? dude. listen to everyone here and just save up and buy 4. I'm almost tempted to paypal you some money just so you don't waste your time buying 3. even call of duty 2 is better than 3. and if you are planning to ever buy call of duty 4 in the future, you will NEVER play cod3 again, thus, it being a waste of money.

I suck at COD4 hardcore online. I keep dying. I'm a damn level 1 still. But then I'm not a hardcore gamer either. I hardly get to play it, and when I have a chance, I usually get on NBA Live 08 which I am damn good at. But anyway I have it on PS3, so look me up under username: gniknave

You'll get used to it quickly enough. All my buddies who are not gamers played it and did HORRIBLY their first shot. After a day or 2 of addicted gameplay, they're teaching everyone a lesson!

Whoa, Evan in the gaming forum. Speaking of NBA, how did you take those back to back losses against the Pistons?

Seriously though, I need to get 08 soon. I have NBA2K7 and it was a lot of fun, I just need to decide which one is better this year.

CoD4 is a lot of fun, and you will get better at it if you keep playing. It does get pretty annoying sometimes because some of those guys are really good.

My Pacers need a damn trade. They need a wing guy that can score 20+ every night that can play with Jermaine. I expected to lose both games to the Pistons. I think we'll win the next one though. Detroit has stability on it's side, and Indiana doesn't.

I've been having a blast with Live 08. However my opinion would be biased because I've never even considered buying an NBA 2k anything game because I've been NBA Live faithful since the first one came out NBA Live 95. I've literally bought every year of NBA Live's existence. I'm starting to get a bit better at COD4 by playing the missions. But I'm still getting my *** handed to me online. About 8 of my coworkers all have it on PS3, so we're all learning together, so eventually I'll get better.

If you want to get better playing online, you almost have to exclusively play online. Try to blow through the rest of the story - single player has a lot of great missions but the most fun lies online. If you spend all your CoD4 time online you will notice yourself getting better pretty quick. Watch those killcams too, they can sometimes give away a good strategy. My one buddy will NEVER watch them, and then asks ME how he could have possibly been killed. As with anything, practice is key, so if you play enough you should see big improvements.

I'm upset the Pistons lost to Boston on Sunday, although I figured it would probably happen. We have a tough schedule this week...we did Boston Sunday, we play the Mavs on Wednesday, and then the Spurs on Thursday. It should be very entertaining though. I'd like to see us get a permanent starter though, so Sheed can go back to power forward. McDyess has been great filling in though.

The ranks are fast....

People online get hack crazy...Its probably a good game for hacking in since you can shoot through walls. A lot of the times people can just be stealthy and you are killed before you even realize whats going on, and so people just assume its hacks.

I guess your playing it on PC then? Do you have xfire? add me (VicktorVauhn) and I'll try to play sometime...I'm on a pretty bad connection though so some times I cant get a decent ping on any servers.

hehe, the knife in this game is pretty sweet :D

You don't know what xfire is!? lol, you not play many other games? Its kinda like aim, only tailored to gamers. Won't minimize your game when you get a message, you can send and receive messages with in game, and it keeps track of what everyone on your buddy list is playing so you can just push a button and automatically launch the game and join the same server as them.Google it, (its probably http://www.xfire.com )

Only COD4 talk I have to add is that I still haven't picked up the game again since the stupid "get back to the evac zone" mission after the sniper flashback pissed me the royal effing hell off with it's uselessly crappy teammate AI and massively unfortunate autosave timing.
