Looking at video games like a high school class, we see all the tribes are represented. You have the Jocks, sports games. You have the artsy kids, Ico, Shadow of the Colossus, Okami. You have the music section with Rock band and similar music titles. You have the nerds with their RPGs. And finally we come to the FPS genre. These are like the jock’s jocks. They are the inner circle of meatheads that control their respective flocks. Where does this leave Call of Duty? It’s the captain of the wrestling team; all aggressive and arrogant.
Call of Duty is more than a game. Its an institution. Gamers come in shapes and sizes, and one thing they have in common is an opinion of the greatest selling franchise in history. Love it or hate it, Call of Duty is here, and its here to bang your sister, steal your girlfriend, break up your parents, foreclose on your house and other seemingly douchebag things, and you will thank CoD for it.
