sorry the point was lost on you i never said anything about hate or being unimpressive i just pointed out in the grand scheme of things that total sales are not the beginning and end to what make a game good, because by that account all critically a claimed games would sell millions because they are so good but they don't.
If "the point was lost on me" it's because you write like shit. What about using some punctuation to make everything at least legible? But that's besides the point. You use sales figures that are completely outdated and claim they are not "all that great". BLOPS is one of the best-selling games of all time, whether you like it or not. Few games have reached those numbers: how is that "not all that great"? I wonder what you consider to be "great sales" then.

to use a example from another form of media that games sometimes get compared to, the recent transformer movies did gang busters at the box office but by all accounts of what you read from critics and hear everyone thinks they are shit, so what is it? because it did millions in sales that makes a great movie series?
What a stupid analogy. The latest Transformer movie has a Metacritic score of 42, while BLOPS has a Metacritic score of 87. No professional reviewer gave it a score under 60, while the vast majority gave it scores over 75. So, it has sales and the critics back it up.

Lovely straw man. You were the one that introduced sales figures to the argument, I merely contested them with factual data. I never said anything about selling more = being good.
As for the hating part... Well, who did you say buy CoD games? "12 year-olds and 420 retards"? Yeah. That's totally not hating.
HAHAHA
well you got me there i don't know how i will continue to live through the rest of my days. i have been truly humble by you.
well according to meta-critic this game has a 98% score does that means it sold or will sell 20m copies? no of course it doesn't http://www.metacritic.com/game/ios/anomaly-warzone-earth
Child of Eden has a 84% rating but sold, what 40,000 copies hardly a compelling argument.
the original statement was haters will hate and wished their favorite game sold as well as CoD did and numbers don't lie, what i failed to do was not respond at 6am before coffee and tried to make the point that sales figures are not the only metric to go by when judging a game or proving its worth And i used the poor example i have said that twice now.
so i ask you just because the previous games sold millions does that automatically make MW3 good game? no it will be a good if it is a good game plain and simple. but that trailer to me at least says generic cookie cutter reused assets polished up version of MW2.
As far as the hating well i used in what my experience has been playing CoD online to be as a example, the 12 year olds and 420 retards i never said i hate them, the game or the series, i have supported CoD at every step. but you have implied and flat out attacked me when i have done no such thing to you or anyone else because you think and wish proclaim that you are better then me is some way, because i don't write well enough for you, i made a stupid statement, all of which i could truly give a flying fuck about, or you for that matter. if you wish to continue to attack me or point out the error of my ways by quoting everything back to me please do so, but just so you know i don't care, if you wish to have a discussion then i am on board.
Thanks again.
