    Noticed how you can vote for what games you want next.

    Can't believe Black Ops II has more votes than Cod 4 and MW2.

    MW2 has nearly 15k more votes than Black Ops on that list I posted previously. Yet Black Ops is getting released first.

    I've got a feeling they will try something * and charge you for MW2 and COD4 because they know how much of a high demand it would have.

    Its hard to put the effort into Xbox these days especially with whats only on offer. Apart from Grand Theft Auto V and FIFA nothing else is cutting it. Maybe its because im in my mid twenties and the appetite has declined, you're lucky if I could stay on GTA for longer than a hour or while playing seasons on FIFA after 2/3 games theres nothing there to try and get into a higher division, anyone else get the same emotion?

    After checking out the Call of Duty MW & MW2 prices it seems there is some sort of demand coming or at least some sort of anticipation. £34 from Game for MW2 tells you it all. That feedback list has nearly all the Call of Duty series - they have to bring them all backwards compatible, if not im thinking about chucking it completely. Nothing beats Cod4 and MW2.

    Are they really that price? I gave them to my wee cousin but I'll be asking the wee * for them back:smiley-laughing002:

    I also get what you mean about losing the appetite. I find it hard to stay on long periods of time now, whereas when the good COD's were out I'd be sweating it out well into the night with a part of 5 or 6 other guys. Glory days.

    Pretty much it in a nutshell :50:

    You could get easily 5 of your pals in a party ranking up on Cod4 or Modern Warfare 2 like 4, 5, 6 years ago shame since time has went by myself and the mates have got responsibilities either with University or having weans/bairns or just settling down to be honest but I haven't touched the new series of Cod because of all this running up walls pish and futuristic garbage just isn't got the appeal as it used too, maybe all the younger generations want this... * knows... If they had stuck with the Cold War era Cod wouldn't be so bad. Backwards Compatibility it is.
