This has nothing to do with what we think of the game. What we're seeing here is the result of the shareholders' meetings, someone said "give them free stuff and they will come", and have now given us free stuff, expected us all to flock to the game as if they had put Mila Kunis' norks in the game, yet not much has changed. This is because they think they're doing us a huge favour, whereas our mindset as gamers is more "about fucking time". On top of that their greed over the last decade or so has driven a knife so far between the ribs that for many people it's either too-little-too-late, or people just don't trust Activision to not fuck it up, which is the correct mindset to have. I don't mind this CoD to be honest, the game itself is a good laugh when playing with you lot but the publishers are so far up their own arse that they don't realise that this new-found generosity and ass kissing isn't anything special, it's the industry standard and what's what we as gamers want and have correctly come to expect. These idiots are trying to reach Fortnite levels of success with a completely different business model. Never gonna happen.

We'll soon be in a new decade, so let's all take a moment to remember the last 10 glorious years of gaming. I'm going to compile a list of 10 games from that time that I love the most, or think had the most effect on me. I'll be mostly thinking of Xbox 360, PS4, PC and Nintendo games. I'll look through my Steam library and see which games I've played the most. Anyway, list your top 10, in ranking order and then on New Years Eve we can compile them all and publish the definitive FG Games of the Decade. I'm going away now to have a think. NB: You can list 10 and change that list whenever you want up until 6pm (UK time) on New years Eve.

My first thoughts are (no particular order) - I wish it was the last 15 or 20 😂 - Halo Reach (rather have Halo 3 but it’s older than 10 years) - Skyrim - Overwatch - Modern Warfare 2 - The Last of Us - The Witcher 3 - Marvels Spider-Man - GTA 5 More to come. It’s harder than you think when limited to 10 years. Also makes you realise how much of a lack of truly amazing memorable games there has been. Also, for me, it’s also more about the timing of when I played it, who I played it with and how much fun was had at the time, not necessarily the game itself

Bonus points to anyone who knows which game these songs are from without looking it up..

Off the top of my head 01. The Witcher 3 (PC) 02. Black Ops (PS3) 03. Red Dead Redemption 2 (PS4) 04. God of War (PS4) 05. Mafia 2 (PC) 06. Grand Theft Auto V (360, PS4, PC) 07. The Last of Us (PS3/4) 08. American Truck Simulator (PC) 09. Far Cry 3 (360) 10. Portal 2 (PC) Other considerations: Saints Row 3, The Walking Dead, Dishonored 2, Euro Truck Simulator 2, Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Hotline Miami, Gemini Rue, Dying Light, A Hat in Time, Batman Arkham City, Uncharted 3. I'm sure there will be changes plus additions.

Here's my initial list, to get the ball rolling, and this will change a lot between now and NYE I'm sure. 1. DayZ mod for Arma 2 2. Arma 3 3. Fallout 3 4. 7 Days to die 5. Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim 6. Bioshock Infinite 7. Civilisation 5 8. Dark Souls 9. Mass Effect 2 10. Dying Light

One of the biggest complaints is that they're trying to copy how Fortnite works with the battle pass and the store yet COD is still a £60(or £45 if you're not stupid enough to buy it digital) game. If the game WAS free to play then you probably, possibly, maybe, wouldn't see as many complaints.

Eww Modern Warfare Will Show You Your Kill-Death Ratio For $20 KOTAKU.COM Modern Warfare finally offers players the ability to see their death count during matches, but what was once a staple Call of Duty feature now... You can get a real one that tells the time for that.

Great idea but not a fucking clue James. Need for Speed? Cant stop thinking its PES cos of Phil's comments. Oh, @phil bottle, that Blur song was FIFA 98. Can't forget that one.

I'm not great when it comes to rating games as it's all subjective, but I'll give this a go. So are we doing game that released from 2010 onwards? These are just going to be listed, not in order until I think about what order to place them. Ori and The Blind Forest The Last of Us Heavy Rain Slay the Spire Skyrim Portal 2 Stardew Valley Sid Meier's Civilization V Spider-Man Grim Dawn

Black Ops 2 (PS3) 7 Days to die (PC) GTAV (PS4) MW3 (PS3) Raft (pc) Far Cry 3 (PS4) The Last of Us (PS4) I expect you to die VR (PC) Zelda (switch) Overwatch (PS4/PC) Special mention to Pokemon Go I think that’s it, I feel like I’m missing some.

The worst part about this list is realising that all the games you think are good are actually older than ten years and holy shit I'm 30 now. Will do a list for later.

Me too, might bring a few games and then add to it over the next few weeks.

Mine would probably be easy destiny and cod 😂 but will have a think. Edit BF4 BO2 Destiny 1 MW3 BO1 B03 Destiny 2 GTA v Gran tourismo sport Bf hard-line 😁

So has anyone tried Spec Ops since they released more maps/missions? How do they play since the update? I'm fancying to give it a go at some point and wondering if an FG squad have got the minerals?

Yeah I mean don't get me wrong, playing solo probably exaggerates some of the minor problems. A bad game is often heightened while struggling, especially if your playing OBJ modes. Some pleb on your team is Camping a rooftop on Hackney yard at "A" Dom while your playing HQ/Hardpoint. I have seen me wipe a few players around an OBJ and have no backup or follow-up. Definitely need to get a few games man, usually play in the evening. Don't really play many other games at the moment. So if I'm online, good chance I will be playing MW. I don't mind mixing game modes. My favourite is KC/Dom a bit of TDM, will play HQ/Hardpoint. Not played much Search or Cyber attack on this game.

That's one of the funniest things I've read in a while. The bit at the end with Hitler and Stalin's ashes left me creased. The survey looks a bit desperate indeed. They don't have an "other" option. Or the "Your game is ass, and there are better/other games on the market" In all seriousness, I play MW. But it's not the same as COD used to be. I literally didn't play MW pretty much all week until the other night. With all the updates and work and "Life" in general. I just didn't find a good time to play. And when I had a spare hour or 2 one of those nights. I choose not to play, the urge wasn't there. Now I didn't play IW, AW, BO3, WW2. But you bet I played the shit out of the other titles till max prestige and beyond. I have no guilt saying that MW is the 2nd worst cod imo after ghosts. Listen to this, I bought BO4 In January. 3 months after release. I didn't play cod for 6 years. I went from an XBOX 360 to a PS4. My internet originally was absolutely bollocks as well. No joke, felt like Michael Jackson thriller the way people skipped and froze about the map. Now aside from cheesy specialists and horrible micro transactions. I absolutely loved BO4, gameplay felt smooth (After I sorted my internet) The maps, Guns etc, challenges, the grind. All fine with me. Even with a "Different" controller and out the game a long time. I didn't spend a penny on BO4 and still had a good time. Even playing solo all the time too!
