I am sorry, I have no opinion on the matter. I am sure you do. So, don't mind me, I just want to talk audio and pie.

    Just start playing it this afternoon, graphics is better than COD 2, pulling out binocular is a tad lethargic. Fun game though.

    I loved it, one of the better released this month. I know it's the holidays but this past week has been insane for releases, Tony Hawk, COD3, GoW, NFSC, F.E.A.R., and Rainbow Six Vegas on the 20th.

    PLUS....I have heard good things about Viva Pinata...seriously I have!

    The graphics, I think, are better than COD2. The sound and surround effects are incredible. I am just having a blast having my living room turned into a warzone. Its awesome. I have yet to play mulitplayer, but that aside, I like this COD clearly better than COD2.

    I just got my 360 a couple of weeks back, and have not played COD2 much. I may just go to COD3 since it is better. I am getting the Raw/Smackdown game today. I have spent several hours playing Marvel Ultimate Alliance, and if you are a comic fan, this game is for you.

    My roommate picked up COD3 yesterday and it is a blast to play. It has the same physics and mechanics of COD2 which I love with upgraded graphics. I really like the depth of field effect when you are aiming.

    PolkThug, I must tell you, I have never gotten so much enjoyment out of a console in my entire life. Being able to talk to my friends back home at anytime, watching a movie, playing a game, listening to music is great. Also since I have Windows MCE on my Mac I can stream all my music, photos, and watch whatever videos I have shared on my TV in my living room. The games out now are a blast especially Gears of War. (It has to be seen in person to be believed.) We also have the camera attatchment which is great fun when you play World Series of Poker because you can actually see the players face. :D Also (although there is now lossless audio support) the HD-DVD is gorgeous. All around it is way more then I could ask for and I am one happy camper.

    But of course, the most important thing is that you want to make sure that there are games out that you really think you would enjoy. :cool:

    After having played this for a while, multiplayer on this game sucks pretty bad. Well, its a clear step down from COD2. Some of the maps are just too damned huge. You spend all your time walking around just looking for someone to shoot, who is doing exactly the same thing. Its ridiculous. I don't need it to be like Unreal Tournament where there is always someone to shoot, but if I wanted to walk around I can go outside and do it for real.

    How to?

    Close quarters fighting - There is part in the game when you climb steps and the guy grabs you. Nothing I do seems to work to get the dude off of me and then I die. I'm sure there is any easy way out but I have yet to find it.

    any help would be appreciated.

    you should be pressing LT and RT during this time followed by A or B, and that should work. Its going to give your fingers a short workout though

    I vaguely remember that appearing on the screen, I think the last couple of tries I have resorted to pressing everything as fast as I could with no result. Perhaps I should play the games with my contacts in and not my glasses. My vision is much worse with my glasses.


    Thanks for the info!
