After 11 years experience of Warfare shooters and the largest game budget on the planet coupled with the amazing tech they have available would you not think that Activision could commission an amazing open world FPS wargame that allows the player to get immersed in a campaign with huge scenarios, open ended missions, tactical options that can change on the battlefield when the player decides, vehicles that the player can drive, full coop and no Kevin fucking Spacey. No, instead we get this bullshit shovelled down our throats yet again.
I agree, i'd love to see this tired franchise experiment with an open world title. I'm sure they could find ways to incorporate the cinematic style the series is known for. As it stands there is very little room for any kind of tactics, it is as Mack says; a game for kids, which is a real shame considering the huge budget and talent behind the production.
No more COD games for me until they do another historic battle title. Now days I just play Planetside 2, its freaking free to play with thousands of people fighting on a big..... juicy freaking map with no loading in between, and you got tanks transports aircrafts, gunships, and so on. All over the place, now that is war, you'll often find your self in a war of 200+ people, and when everyone is rushing at a base, its like freaking D-day in the future. Mack you should check it out, and hey man its free to play.
"You are hurt. Get to cover!" "You are hungry. Get something to eat!" "You are turning blue. Remember to breath!" What's not to like about this game?......
Call of Duty is like candy cigarettes. An adult concept, reinvented for children. If you're under 18, you'll love this game. If you're over 18, you'll get more enjoyment out of trapping your nob in your zip.
Signed ! Better Investment of Time than playin. Loved the RANT Part ! Delivered in adequate Time to get all the Facts you need and get the Video done and uploaded. I like all the Reviews you do. GREAT CHANNEL :)
Falnight Expect that what you said bro , i was talking about that with a friend of mine that in 5-10 years it is gonna be auto-aim multiplayer cod 100%
And after that it is going to be like those arcade games where we had that plastic gun and killing everything in one shot , welcome to cod extra modern warfare will be the name
Mack, you are conscience in the flesh. Not so many people can recognize this because the majority has lost them. Keep shining the light in the dark, Mack.
I think the main problem is the price. Were this to be a £15-20 expansion for Call of Duty, where it was advertised as more of the same for those who like it, with some new cool features, then great, go for it. But £40 on PC (more on consoles) for a 5 hour campaign and some multiplayer modes we've seen before, branded as a new game, with highly priced DLCs announced pre-launch, it's just not good. Good on you, Mack, hope this gets traction. I'm sure as hell sharing it.
There is really no reason to review or look at reviews at all. It's a CoD game, it's exactly what you expect and nothing more. If you love CoD then you will already have bought the game. If you hate CoD there is nothing new to bring you in. If you are indifferent like me then you'll just rent it for a weekend for some quick popcorn gaming and be done with it. That's all there is to it. *shrugs*
Astral esfe Yeah, I can't think of any FPS as of late that I realy enjoyed, except Shadow Warrior (but its one that takes some cues from classical shooters like Painkiller), maybe Wolfenstein: The New Order, Bulletstorm, and Serious Sam 3 came close to what I've been wanting but holy hell is that really all of it? I have to be playing Doom 1 and 2 in this day and age with mods, just to have a decent time with a FPS. I mean the state of gaming right now is horrendous, thankfully we are seeing more genres get the attention they deserve with Walking Dead, X-com, and indie stuff. Hope we get a real shooter soon.
After having a chance to complete the campaign and do a few rounds of multiplayer since writing that comment I can safely say....my opinion is exactly the same. It's a competent game, the shooting feels good as always and it looks nice and the near future tech is prety cool. However the story plot goes from realistic to GI Joe cartoon levels but to be fair Kevin Spacey is very good even if he never uses an exo suit. Overall it's a decent game but anyone trying to tell you it's not the same old extremely linear and scripted style is just blowing smoke up your arse. It's CoD and you already know if that is for you or not.
PC version looks terrible. It has horrendous mouse acceleration which you cannot turn off, it cannot cope with mouse polling rates over 125hz (most now are 500-1000Hz), you have a to dumb down your mouse to have an accurate aim, Same old COD shit, in a different skin.
***** I see. Is the monitor's maximum resolution 1990x1080? Seems like an odd aspect ratio. I have a first gen true HD monitor from about 6 years ago and its native res is 1920x1200
tehf00n Weird, my 1080p monitor does me well enough. I won´t drop the bucks needed to get 4k, or 21:9 or some other rediculous resolution as long as I don´t have the disposable income nessesary to compensate for that. 1080p is for TVs not PCs? Really? Why? Does TV not benefit from higher resolutions? Why is almost every decent priced 16:9 Monitor in 1920x1080p? If you can afford to play at higher resolutions to satisfy your e-penis, then fine, but don´t start acting all high and mighty, and talking down to people with 1080p monitors. People don´t want bad console port games? Then don´t fucking buy them, teach the industry a lesson by pirating the fuck out of their games and writing open letters to them, stating WHY you don´t feel like paying money for their product.
Chrinik its nothing to do with satisfying my e-penis. I enjoy a finer resolution. When I use 1080p or 720p on my monitor I get a horrible stretch in aspect ratio (my brain prefers 16:10 over 16:9) and it makes the text in game look like it needs 16x AA to be readable. I wasnt acting high and mighty. If you take amoment to re-read the post I was being satirical about the pc master race jokers. I dont buy bad console ports. Thanks for the advice but I have been gaming for 34 years so I figured that one out back when I was copying games from tape to tape.
Just found this Channel I have to say i really felt some release of frustration watching this review, because the FPS industry has turned into pure shit for a long time.
Black ops 1 was the last time I enjoyed COD. It seems to get worse every year. And now I see black ops 3 is gonna be some more futuristic bull. No thx BF is my new thing
Tribes Ascend is not a bad game either. It's just a total shame that the devs completely botched their chance of doing something good with it and then they left it out to die when they saw they could milk more money out of Smite instead of properly caring about Tribes Ascend.
GamingDemonGirl I'd be very excited for a Tribes 3 or Tribes Ascend 2. That game was a lot of fun. I'm glad someone recognises it. Imagine them opening it up for player made maps like TF2. I bet the community could come up with some very creative and fun map designs.
Lol 16:34, that frase ´´You are hurt, get to cover´´ is sooo old man I remember playing CoD 4 and seeing that frase maybe its older cant remember if it was on CoD 2
To take the single player campaign in a new direction there's just so much the COD developers could learn from Far Cry. Imagine doing recon missions in an open world, identifying troop numbers, then in the next mission you're in a platoon attacking that part of the map, and on and on, the possibilities are endless. Why they're still producing gameplay from 2003 is mind boggling. I reckon take the game back to WW2 and give us a small part of one of the campaigns in that theatre. It ain't rocket surgery on the direction it needs to go. Open world. Freedom of choice. Improved AI. Do it under the COD name but with a subtitle to differentiate from the stock standard stuff they insist on producing for the established audience that still hasn't left them. Call it COD: Not the same lazy old shit with an added gimmick. Then I might come back to this once loved brand.
Please never sell out like other reviewers Mack, your reviews are always awesome, so sick of seeing shit like this flagged with 9/10 and other crap it so infuriating, makes you feel fucking sick whenever ANOTHER cod game pops up on Steam. Love this channel.
One of my favourite reviews of yours. Please don't jump on the hype train and fall in love with the new game just because of the setting Mack. Love from Bristol!
Really Mac you are one of the best reviewers on youtube by far, it is so rare that reviewers have a neutral point of view, I don't even mind reading reviews by IGN,Gamespot etc. it is all the same, so new ,so awesome, so exo, so Kevin Spacey, bla bla all the time that's shit. At least you are an reliable source, nevermind the hype about something. I loved CoD once it was awesome until WaW but why should I buy the same shit every year, MP got worse, scripts everywhere, they should take like 3 years off and create something really new.
You're the first person who actually gets CoD series as in - yes, Modern Warfare 2 was a fun pub game, and CoD1 and CoD2 were very competitive and had great competitive communities. Very few people have that experience, and it looks like you have. Your view is on point about CoD series in any video you mention it. I've been through that bus just like you, I have the same opinion.
You are absolutely correct about how this game is aimed for kids. Hearing the dumbasses talking about the game is soooooo f*cking annoying at my school. I have only once layed my hands on a call of duty game in my life and after an hour the game had bored me to death.
Im from New York and there is nothing like Worth A Buy explained. Im not anywhere near as a drone as the next 14 year old playing these games, but I dont see any of these "adverts".
Worth A Buy I agree with your video also the storyline was idiotic you didn't have the choice to join kevin spacey and he becomes evil guy well i couldn't care if he's evil i wanna join him not go on and fight him... Good that i pirated the game...
I started watching a play through of this game the other day and I wondered if I was the only person on the planet that thought this game was shit. Shoot loads of bad guys, watch a cut scene, shoot loads more bad guys, watch another cut scene, shoot more bad guys, stab yourself in the arm to relieve the boredom.
Oh man! I was about to give in buying CoD this weekend. But as soon as I found out that it doesn't play like Quake, I'm like forget it! Thanks so much for your review! Going to get GTA5 instead (ps4 edition). I haven't played that yet.
I read an interview with Kevin and he said it was fun doing it because it was different than "real" acting. (I'm sure the money didn't hurt either) But do teenage boys really think he is a big deal enough to buy a game? Somehow, I don't think so. :::scratching head::::
***** Aw, makes sense now. They figure the kids will just go for the COD name and they try and get more "mature" players by Kevin Spacey (in an exo suit). :)
+1 I don't know who kevinSpacey is but I was always a fan of tom cruise. As soon as he made the movie Oblivion I question how he can sleep comfortably at night. What a tit.
Could you review Spec Ops: The Line? The game was released in 2012, but it's one of the few modern shooter games that's actually good. The story is really good. In my opinion, Spec Ops: The Line is a 9.5/10 game, the only bad thing is that the developers were forced to add the multiplayer mode to the game, a bad one btw. But I think you will love the game if you skip the multiplayer.
bran8337 I love Spec Ops: The Line! It's really emotional! And it's a great game to play if you want to get depressed, I get really immersed into it, the changes on the character personality are incredibly well done!
Mack I don't know if you have played Black Ops II, but I just recently played it and thought it was actually a very good title in the franchise and I like you have hated what COD has become. It gives the players choices in events and they drastically effect the storyline. Its pretty good.
The part about "leaving the mission area" was brilliant... so fucking true. How many games do we get now that basically just funnel you through the experience.. what a joke. I will say it can be fun to have a nice entertaining experience like "Uncharted," or some of these other linear experiences with great graphics, but it doesn't compare to really being in a living, breathing world where you can make your own decisions... kind of like real frakking life...
You know I never really liked Call of Duty games at all, but after seeing a lot of the trailers I was convinced to purchase it for £26 on G2A instead of Steam's £40. Now as I remember people never really played Call of duty for the campaign but this time around a tried it out. Now if you want my honest opinion after finishing the game, then you will be surprised to here that I think it is one of the best Call of duty campaigns since Call of Duty 4. The ending was a bit of a sequel bait and it wasn't to long or to short but I liked playing every moment of it because it was fun and engaging, even when there are certain moments where you have cut scenes where you just need to press a key it really did feel like I was doing all of that because the game really immersed me with it's story and game play. Now I haven't played a lot of the multiplayer mode but it is pretty much like all of the other Call of Duty games except they have really improved the class system and you can fully customize your soldier with loot that you find while playing. You can also disenchant loot that you find for XP which I thought was also a really cool feature because not everyone compares about the gear. As far as game play goes I think it's better because you now have EXO suit abilities which let you perform things like being able to double jump and boost in different directions which allow you to strafe around your target. Your EXO suit also has an ability that you can activate, some of these are going invisible, regenerating health, a portable riot shield and many other items which have all served a purpose and a lot of them aren't actually useless. For the coop mode I have not played it but I am sure it is pretty much the same as Modern Warfare's 3 survival / wave mode which is an extra feature and that is always welcome when I am tired of playing the multiplayer or replaying the story missions, you know because I actually enjoyed the campaign this time around. I Have to disagree with Mack respectfully, I am not a fanboy like Mack mentions in the video but I have enjoyed this game. I Would give it 8.9 out of 10.
Funny thing. In the latest issue of Pelit-Magazine (the Finnish gaming magazine) Advanced Warfare got 87/100 points and on the next page Defence Grid 2 got 85/100 :D
I've said this before about scripted events in first person shooters. The only way to make a good scripted event in my opinion is through none cut scenes. An example is Half-Life, where you play the game even though you know everything is scripted, you don't feel it, because you see it in real time as you're playing the game, so it doesn't detract from the experience. I imagine if most of the games do this as well, it will make the game a lot better I think.
This is so true! I know people who say "Call of duty advanced warfare is the best game ever!" yet they also say " Far Cry 3 copies off Minecraft since it has crafting"....*facepalm*
I love your reviews, Each review you do is purely a fact every time when a game is bad, and when a game is good. I find that you, and AngryJoe do a badass job at giving great reviews, and you deserve to have more views, and subs. Keep doing what your'e doing rock on! \m/
My top 3 cods are advanced, modern warfare, and world at war. I am a battle field guy myself, but when it come to hanging with my boys, those 3 games are where it was at for us. Cod is almost perfect in a group setting and I like what they have going for them because there are other options when I want strategy type games and cod kinda fills a hole.
**Pulls out cigar** "We made a killing with Advanced Warfare, how are we going to top that now?" "Kevin Spacey in an Exo suit......also wearing a top hat?" $ $ $ $ $
fastdak25 And then borderlands and then half life and then Far Cry and then just cause and then GTA and then battlefield and then crysis until it has ripped off every game in existence
I knew this would be especially funny! hahaha god I hate this game. Keep up the great reviews I've only been subscribed a couple weeks but I'm gona go through all your uploads. FANTASTIC!
Been watching video reviews on UA-cam for Advanced Warfare lately. Came here expecting another biased or objective opinion on the game. Ended up leaving with a laugh and 60 dollars still in my bank account. Subscribed :D
When he started talking about schools and kids saying: "have you got advanced warfare?" That is exactly like my "friends" ( loosely using the term) constantly saying "have you heard about cod blows 3?" Drives me fucking mad. I actually asked someone at school, why do like cod? And he gave answers and reasons and things that any standard fps game can deliver.
I wish this game would go back to its roots. Call of duty with its expansion united offensive was just amazing and great fun both in single and multi player. A remake...if done right..would really pull Cod out of the mire in which it has become so firmly stuck in.
This is why I rarely play any multiplayer game that doesn't divide the players by rank/level. No new player wants to grind for hours because it pits you against max level people 1 shotting you. It's not even a skill issue at that point.
I'm nearly done with most fps games except for the old ones where FOV was not an issue. This game has no FOV slider in campaign mode - tired of DLing memory hacks that allow me to view the game without feeling like I'm going to fookin vomit. Love your channel - love your channel!
After 11 years experience of Warfare shooters and the largest game budget on the planet coupled with the amazing tech they have available would you not think that Activision could commission an amazing open world FPS wargame that allows the player to get immersed in a campaign with huge scenarios, open ended missions, tactical options that can change on the battlefield when the player decides, vehicles that the player can drive, full coop and no Kevin fucking Spacey. No, instead we get this bullshit shovelled down our throats yet again.
101kaleb I was meaning the huge advertising campaign.
101kaleb
Just open up gamespot.com and you will know wth. Mack was writing about...
I agree, i'd love to see this tired franchise experiment with an open world title. I'm sure they could find ways to incorporate the cinematic style the series is known for. As it stands there is very little room for any kind of tactics, it is as Mack says; a game for kids, which is a real shame considering the huge budget and talent behind the production.
Is this a review or a rant?
No more COD games for me until they do another historic battle title. Now days I just play Planetside 2, its freaking free to play with thousands of people fighting on a big..... juicy freaking map with no loading in between, and you got tanks transports aircrafts, gunships, and so on. All over the place, now that is war, you'll often find your self in a war of 200+ people, and when everyone is rushing at a base, its like freaking D-day in the future. Mack you should check it out, and hey man its free to play.
"You are hurt. Get to cover!"
"You are hungry. Get something to eat!"
"You are turning blue. Remember to breath!"
What's not to like about this game?......
Call of Duty is like candy cigarettes.
An adult concept, reinvented for children.
If you're under 18, you'll love this game.
If you're over 18, you'll get more enjoyment out of trapping your nob in your zip.
LMAO best review ever. thanks for keeping it real bro
Signed ! Better Investment of Time than playin. Loved the RANT Part ! Delivered in adequate Time to get all the Facts you need and get the Video done and uploaded. I like all the Reviews you do. GREAT CHANNEL :)
Press Y to pay your respects... COD in a nutshell. Hilarious rant btw.
BLOODBATH9998 "Now shoot the enemy by pressing L1 (we will aim for you)"
Falnight Expect that what you said bro , i was talking about that with a friend of mine that in 5-10 years it is gonna be auto-aim multiplayer cod 100%
And after that it is going to be like those arcade games where we had that plastic gun and killing everything in one shot , welcome to cod extra modern warfare will be the name
Mack, you are conscience in the flesh. Not so many people can recognize this because the majority has lost them. Keep shining the light in the dark, Mack.
Everyone loves kevin spacy in an exo suit and if you dont he will force you to love him.
I think the main problem is the price. Were this to be a £15-20 expansion for Call of Duty, where it was advertised as more of the same for those who like it, with some new cool features, then great, go for it.

Mac - the 'pay your respects' scene with you nodding at the mourners is the funniest thing i've ever seen.
Zombies are dlc now not surprised.
***** I am a teenager and I find this stupid as hell
amen
BLOODBATH9998 You forgot a period or two.
Was Kevin Spacey using the exosuit to look for young boys?
There is really no reason to review or look at reviews at all. It's a CoD game, it's exactly what you expect and nothing more. If you love CoD then you will already have bought the game. If you hate CoD there is nothing new to bring you in. If you are indifferent like me then you'll just rent it for a weekend for some quick popcorn gaming and be done with it.

couldnt have said it better
i smell total biscuit
The point is payed reviews and the objectively shit game that is CoD.
Astral esfe Yeah, I can't think of any FPS as of late that I realy enjoyed, except Shadow Warrior (but its one that takes some cues from classical shooters like Painkiller), maybe Wolfenstein: The New Order, Bulletstorm, and Serious Sam 3 came close to what I've been wanting but holy hell is that really all of it?

GR: Future Soldier-CoD: Future Warfighter
You heard it here first!
wow good point CoD can suck it down $78.95 for one game rip off
Followed by the free-to-play CoD: Phantoms next?
***** Im just calling it as i see it
Joezer Mandagi Im thinking so, release alongside future warfighter
Joezer Mandagi wait Activision are releasing a free game? Im expecting a message to pop up after I've played it for 1 minute: "buy full game here!"
No its free to play but you need to buy the season passes for the maps and weapons
Lmao brilliant review as per usual Mr. Mack. "I was doing rocket jumps in Quake, in 1996!" Lmao
PC version looks terrible. It has horrendous mouse acceleration which you cannot turn off, it cannot cope with mouse polling rates over 125hz (most now are 500-1000Hz), you have a to dumb down your mouse to have an accurate aim,
Same old COD shit, in a different skin.
Ah, but it runs GREAT even with capture software on!
...Provided you have some of the best hardware money can buy... =p
***** Just google the mouse polling
its a know issue

Kevin Spacey in a sexo suit
I like how you casually spoil The Usual Suspects.
I laugh my ass off this is so true. keep it up mack
Just found this Channel
I have to say i really felt some release of frustration watching this review, because the FPS industry has turned into pure shit for a long time.
Black ops 1 was the last time I enjoyed COD. It seems to get worse every year. And now I see black ops 3 is gonna be some more futuristic bull. No thx BF is my new thing
Yes battlefield is so much better than call of duty but battlefield hardline is probably the worst game I've ever played the game was a disappointment
+Sebastian Ramirez hardline is better than battlefield 4
This is so funny and brilliant at the same time. One of my favorites from WAB. The way it exposes paid reviews is so fucking awesome.
I’m not sure who is more sinister, Activision or Kevin Spacey? 🤔
Tribes 2 did everything this game does only better and more fun ...15 years ago
Tribes Ascend is not a bad game either. It's just a total shame that the devs completely botched their chance of doing something good with it and then they left it out to die when they saw they could milk more money out of Smite instead of properly caring about Tribes Ascend.
Completely agree. Tribes 1 and 2 really nailed jetpack gameplay, 15 years ago.
GamingDemonGirl
I'd be very excited for a Tribes 3 or Tribes Ascend 2. That game was a lot of fun. I'm glad someone recognises it.
Imagine them opening it up for player made maps like TF2. I bet the community could come up with some very creative and fun map designs.
agreed, advanced cashgrab just copied tribes 2 completely with some upgraded graphics..
I fucking Love this channel. Mack I just want to say Thank you for your brilliant zero bullshit reviews. It angers me that you don't have more subs.
Lol 16:34, that frase ´´You are hurt, get to cover´´ is sooo old man I remember playing CoD 4 and seeing that frase maybe its older cant remember if it was on CoD 2
Havent laughed this hard in ages, great rant mack, love you man!
wait there is another fucking COD ? god help us all
To take the single player campaign in a new direction there's just so much the COD developers could learn from Far Cry.

Mack, you're one of the few reviewers I trust. And this review is a prime example for why that is :)
Mack you deserve so much more for your channel. Your humour and reviews is unique, and that makes you a great entertainer
One of my favourite reviews of yours. Please don't jump on the hype train and fall in love with the new game just because of the setting Mack. Love from Bristol!
Brilliant just brilliant the only true review on the web.
Ex-o-suit, ex-o-suit, Ke-vin Spa-cey in an ex-o-suit.
Brilliant stuff Mack, keep doing your thing and I'll keep laughing my head off.
I love this review. The paying respects bit was the apex of the poignant entertainment.
Mack, you sir are the voice of reason !!! Brilliant review !!
Really Mac you are one of the best reviewers on youtube by far, it is so rare that reviewers have a neutral point of view, I don't even mind reading reviews by IGN,Gamespot etc. it is all the same, so new ,so awesome, so exo, so Kevin Spacey, bla bla all the time that's shit.
At least you are an reliable source, nevermind the hype about something.
I loved CoD once it was awesome until WaW but why should I buy the same shit every year, MP got worse, scripts everywhere, they should take like 3 years off and create something really new.
You're the first person who actually gets CoD series as in - yes, Modern Warfare 2 was a fun pub game, and CoD1 and CoD2 were very competitive and had great competitive communities.

Best COD: AW review 2014
*KEVIN SPACEY IN AN EXOSUIT !!!*
Hey, did I tell you that this game has Kevin Spacey ... and an ExoSuit?
You are absolutely correct about how this game is aimed for kids. Hearing the dumbasses talking about the game is soooooo f*cking annoying at my school. I have only once layed my hands on a call of duty game in my life and after an hour the game had bored me to death.
You should play the first one and call of duty 2.....They're really good.
echomemory thats so true , carentan and tunisia all day
A friend just recommended your channel and this video to me Mack, have to say bloody hilarious and as a fellow Geordie keep up the good work.
Best Rant EVER! Im Crying with laughter!!! You sir have earned yourself a sub :)
Dude, you are fucking hilarious! You are by far my favorite game reviewer, PLEASE don't change your intros or style.
You know, ign gave alien isolation a 6/10 because of its difficulty and "bad" lipsync... and they gave this pile of crap a 9.1... think about that now
I went those website you mentioned, non of them had call of duty all over it, maybe I'm late to the party.
Chuck Lee Just been to them this second after reading your post and they are exactly as I described, that is strange.
Worth A Buy Maybe it's depending on region, I'm from Australia and for example on igndotcom and I see GTAV and Batman and some other random news.
Im from New York and there is nothing like Worth A Buy explained. Im not anywhere near as a drone as the next 14 year old playing these games, but I dont see any of these "adverts".
I can see all the adverts now and im from the UK. Good review Mack.
Worth A Buy I agree with your video also the storyline was idiotic you didn't have the choice to join kevin spacey and he becomes evil guy well i couldn't care if he's evil i wanna join him not go on and fight him... Good that i pirated the game...
it's your channel and Angry Joe's that I go to, to get opinions on a game, great review Mack
I started watching a play through of this game the other day and I wondered if I was the only person on the planet that thought this game was shit. Shoot loads of bad guys, watch a cut scene, shoot loads more bad guys, watch another cut scene, shoot more bad guys, stab yourself in the arm to relieve the boredom.
I laughed like a crazy person at the "where is my cock" part, good review, actually best review i have seen for this game.
You deserve at least four times the amount of subscribers XD
"Fuckin' 'ell where's me cock? I need to throb it off now." Holy shit I laughed hard. There's so many great rants in this video, Mack. Good times.
Oh man! I was about to give in buying CoD this weekend. But as soon as I found out that it doesn't play like Quake, I'm like forget it! Thanks so much for your review!
Going to get GTA5 instead (ps4 edition). I haven't played that yet.
I love Kevin Spacey but I've lost a bit of respect for him because he was involved with this
but he made an exosuit
lol
Just like IGN and all the rest, only difference is they paid him a fat stack of cash up front, instead of fiddling with overpriced ad space... =p
I read an interview with Kevin and he said it was fun doing it because it was different than "real" acting. (I'm sure the money didn't hurt either) But do teenage boys really think he is a big deal enough to buy a game? Somehow, I don't think so. :::scratching head::::
***** Aw, makes sense now. They figure the kids will just go for the COD name and they try and get more "mature" players by Kevin Spacey (in an exo suit). :)
+1 I don't know who kevinSpacey is but I was always a fan of tom cruise. As soon as he made the movie Oblivion I question how he can sleep comfortably at night. What a tit.
This was f*ckin fantastic, thank you mate for one of the most accurate yet funny as all royal hell review xD
you sounded so calm and nice in the beginning :D
You just got a new subscriber never stop being you love the rants
they should lower this game's value to $6.99
Could you review Spec Ops: The Line? The game was released in 2012, but it's one of the few modern shooter games that's actually good. The story is really good. In my opinion, Spec Ops: The Line is a 9.5/10 game, the only bad thing is that the developers were forced to add the multiplayer mode to the game, a bad one btw. But I think you will love the game if you skip the multiplayer.
bran8337 I love Spec Ops: The Line! It's really emotional! And it's a great game to play if you want to get depressed, I get really immersed into it, the changes on the character personality are incredibly well done!
Spec Ops is a mediocre game....but it´s a awesome experience from start to finish.
Mack do a movie review for the game. Acting, story, shots, etc. is it worth an oscar?
Some of the more better content on UA-cam, good laughs- blunt and strong. Just how a review should be..... Love the bell by the way, great touch 👌
I love the way your rants build up! Had me in tears! :D
*Slow claps that slowly entices audience to clap as well and gives him a medal*
Subbed, good sir.
Thanks Mack! You are the only reviewer I trust
Mack, keeping it real. Don't ever stop .
Mack I don't know if you have played Black Ops II, but I just recently played it and thought it was actually a very good title in the franchise and I like you have hated what COD has become. It gives the players choices in events and they drastically effect the storyline. Its pretty good.
I've been waiting for this review!!!!! Thanks for your honesty Mac, keep up the great work
I have been looking forward to this! And boy, you didnt disappoint me! Awesome review Mack!
The part about "leaving the mission area" was brilliant... so fucking true. How many games do we get now that basically just funnel you through the experience.. what a joke. I will say it can be fun to have a nice entertaining experience like "Uncharted," or some of these other linear experiences with great graphics, but it doesn't compare to really being in a living, breathing world where you can make your own decisions... kind of like real frakking life...
omg, I saw the description and thought YES!, I know mack will address the stupid. ty mack!
You and me Mack, we have the same taste in gaming.. its just awesome to hear someone who think exactly what I think
You know I never really liked Call of Duty games at all, but after seeing a lot of the trailers I was convinced to purchase it for £26 on G2A instead of Steam's £40. Now as I remember people never really played Call of duty for the campaign but this time around a tried it out. Now if you want my honest opinion after finishing the game, then you will be surprised to here that I think it is one of the best Call of duty campaigns since Call of Duty 4. The ending was a bit of a sequel bait and it wasn't to long or to short but I liked playing every moment of it because it was fun and engaging, even when there are certain moments where you have cut scenes where you just need to press a key it really did feel like I was doing all of that because the game really immersed me with it's story and game play.
Now I haven't played a lot of the multiplayer mode but it is pretty much like all of the other Call of Duty games except they have really improved the class system and you can fully customize your soldier with loot that you find while playing. You can also disenchant loot that you find for XP which I thought was also a really cool feature because not everyone compares about the gear. As far as game play goes I think it's better because you now have EXO suit abilities which let you perform things like being able to double jump and boost in different directions which allow you to strafe around your target. Your EXO suit also has an ability that you can activate, some of these are going invisible, regenerating health, a portable riot shield and many other items which have all served a purpose and a lot of them aren't actually useless.
For the coop mode I have not played it but I am sure it is pretty much the same as Modern Warfare's 3 survival / wave mode which is an extra feature and that is always welcome when I am tired of playing the multiplayer or replaying the story missions, you know because I actually enjoyed the campaign this time around. I Have to disagree with Mack respectfully, I am not a fanboy like Mack mentions in the video but I have enjoyed this game. I Would give it 8.9 out of 10.
Love watching your reviews, Mack. Love it even more with the 720p60 option.
Couldn't care less about CoD, but keep up the good work!
Great review Mack. You should have more attention. Everything you said is oh so true.
Are you going to review far cry 4? Your reviews are so good and true. Nice to see an honest reviewer on UA-cam.
I can get six crates of my favorite beers in asda for 40 pounds and it would last longer.
I love you, you're hilarious! Subscribed!
Grabbed the words out of my mouth Mack, yep, an interactive movie! xD
Love your work Mack. :D
Funny thing. In the latest issue of Pelit-Magazine (the Finnish gaming magazine) Advanced Warfare got 87/100 points and on the next page Defence Grid 2 got 85/100 :D
I've said this before about scripted events in first person shooters. The only way to make a good scripted event in my opinion is through none cut scenes. An example is Half-Life, where you play the game even though you know everything is scripted, you don't feel it, because you see it in real time as you're playing the game, so it doesn't detract from the experience. I imagine if most of the games do this as well, it will make the game a lot better I think.
This is so true! I know people who say "Call of duty advanced warfare is the best game ever!" yet they also say " Far Cry 3 copies off Minecraft since it has crafting"....*facepalm*
I love your reviews, Each review you do is purely a fact every time when a game is bad, and when a game is good. I find that you, and AngryJoe do a badass job at giving great reviews, and you deserve to have more views, and subs.
Keep doing what your'e doing rock on! \m/
My top 3 cods are advanced, modern warfare, and world at war. I am a battle field guy myself, but when it come to hanging with my boys, those 3 games are where it was at for us. Cod is almost perfect in a group setting and I like what they have going for them because there are other options when I want strategy type games and cod kinda fills a hole.
I believe that next Call of Duty will be a full length movie with a language selection :)
**Pulls out cigar** "We made a killing with Advanced Warfare, how are we going to top that now?"
"Kevin Spacey in an Exo suit......also wearing a top hat?"
$ $ $ $ $
Phil Mehr they're going to rip off Deus Ex next apparently. See new BO3 trailer.
fastdak25 And then borderlands
and then half life
and then Far Cry
and then just cause
and then GTA
and then battlefield
and then crysis
until it has ripped off every game in existence
nice review dude, I am glad that I wasn't so naive to succumb the epic hype and didn't bought the game.
Another great review straight to the point. Thanks saving me a packet
I knew this would be especially funny! hahaha god I hate this game. Keep up the great reviews I've only been subscribed a couple weeks but I'm gona go through all your uploads. FANTASTIC!
Multiplayer is FUN and that is important in cod you dont have tactful gameplay you run around and enjoy yourself.
I came back to watch it again.
Been watching video reviews on UA-cam for Advanced Warfare lately. Came here expecting another biased or objective opinion on the game. Ended up leaving with a laugh and 60 dollars still in my bank account. Subscribed :D
When he started talking about schools and kids saying: "have you got advanced warfare?" That is exactly like my "friends" ( loosely using the term) constantly saying "have you heard about cod blows 3?" Drives me fucking mad. I actually asked someone at school, why do like cod? And he gave answers and reasons and things that any standard fps game can deliver.
I wish this game would go back to its roots. Call of duty with its expansion united offensive was just amazing and great fun both in single and multi player. A remake...if done right..would really pull Cod out of the mire in which it has become so firmly stuck in.
Im liking it. Plus geforce just put out an update so now I can actually play at 1440! Keep up the good work mack you do the most entertaining reviews.
This is why I rarely play any multiplayer game that doesn't divide the players by rank/level. No new player wants to grind for hours because it pits you against max level people 1 shotting you. It's not even a skill issue at that point.
Never drink coffee while watching a worth a buy video....couldent help it but laugh so hard yup the mess real,thank you Mack keep it up👍
I'm nearly done with most fps games except for the old ones where FOV was not an issue. This game has no FOV slider in campaign mode - tired of DLing memory hacks that allow me to view the game without feeling like I'm going to fookin vomit. Love your channel - love your channel!
i dunno why but the way you add kevin S on an exosuit cracks me up!!!!
Hahahaha I love this review, the Geordie accent absolutely makes it. Yes it f*cking does.
hilarious rant sums up what i think about COD
