Press X to pay respects...

Thursday 28th December 2014

I'm not really a Call of Duty player, my last outing with the franchise was back in `09, with MW2 but back then it was a phenomenon, (during my high school days), kids would even be bringing their 360's to school, just to get a quick match in during lunch time.

As the semester break for uni has now started, and my leave from work starting, I've finally got time to kick back and play some vidya games.

My first impression of Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare, is a game or an $80 dollar cinematic?

Fall off a bus, press 'X' shoot shoot shoot, press 'X', press R3, press 'X' at the exact moment or you die. You died do the whole thing again. - dammit!

Car goes in the water, is this a cinematic or am I actually meant to do something? "Mission failed hostages drowned". - You know between all that bus jumping, X and R3 button pressing, loud explosions, I had no idea we were meant to be rescuing hostages.

Press square to pay respects.

On another note, the one day of the year I get to play the PS4, and it takes me 30 minutes to sign-in to the PlayStation Network, I can't do any updates and nothings working properly, just found out they were hacked, good lord, its 2011 all over again.
