Recently I have regretted selling two games: BioShock and Call of Duty 4. I have always simply sold my games after I get all of their single player Achievements and played “enough” of the multiplayer. But now during this dry spell of gaming I realize I don’t have any good console shooters left to play on my 360. Why did I think Call of Duty: World at War would be an easy replacement for Call of Duty 4? That was a big mistake…
Best Buy is selling Call of Duty 4 Game of the Year Edition for $30 and Amazon is selling it for $35 (as well as BioShock for $20), so I am starting to considering the “rebuy” of both of these titles. I’ve yet to play another game that has made modern warfare as much fun as Call of Duty 4 or a shooter that is as immersive as BioShock.
With BioShock and Call of Duty 4 being my favorite games of 2007, will that mean next summer I will be regretting my decision to have sold off Fallout 3 and Left 4 Dead? Maybe not, with sequels to Left 4 Dead, Call of Duty 4, and BioShock all releasing this fall, as well as a Fallout 3 Game of the Year edition releasing for $60 with all 5 DLC. One game at a time I guess. The first thing I need to decide is if Call of Duty 4 is worth a rebuy. And I’m starting to suspect that it is. Dang it!
