    Now i understand what the topic says, but don't get me wrong, i am not a fan of Call of Duty, the first Modern Warfare was fun but every game after is the same friggin game and a total waste of money and time to play. No good players are on there any more, just scrubs and 12 year olds who like to try and think they can cuss people out cuz their parents aren't in the room. I can't stand the Call of Duty franchise and wish it would end. But in the process of researching information on the new Medal of Honor game coming out this year for a school project i came across some interesting information of events that passed the past couple years and now i don't hate the franchise as much, because they can't do anything to make it better.

    Allow me to clarify.

    A couple years ago, after the release of Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2, the two owners of the company Infinity Ward, the people who actually create Call of Duty, were not given their full pay for the game and promptly quit. Jason West and Vince Zampella left to create their own company named Respawn Entertainment and began to work under EA Games. They sued Activision for the right to get the money they refused them. Activision counter-sued claiming that EA Games was stealing the Call of Duty franchise and attempting to breach the contracts of the two ex-employees and is now suing them for 400 million dolars. EA has claimed they were doing no such thing, why would they need to when they have Battlefield and Medal of Honor? They are currently in trial right now to see who wins, and quite possibly if EA wins they will take the franchise with them. But this isn't all, after Jason and Vince left, about 25-50 employees of the 100 that worked on Call of Duty followed suit and are now working at Respawn Entertainment with their previous bosses. Doesn't this just show how WONDERFUL Activision is?

    But here is another thing. If you have been paying attention Call of Duty has been releasing a new game every single year, there is even rumors of Black Ops 2 coming out THIS year. This is because they signed a contract with Activision saying that they HAVE to release a new game every year or else they breach the contract and don't get funds. AFter learning of this i understand why they suck. If you know anything about the videogame industry you would understand that a single year is NOT enough time to take a game and make it into something different. Every game has been the same thing with little tweaks, most of them making the gameplay worse (*cough* Black Ops), and a few new maps. They don't have TIME to make it better. They only have time to make a few things and then release saying it's a new game, it's amazing they get anything done at all now with half their staff missing.

    So even if you hate Call of Duty and can't stand the series like i do, hopefully this will change your views a little bit, i'm not saying love the series and buy every friggin game, but just know they have an excuse for sucking and hopefully they will be free of this contract soon, take a 3-5 year break, and bring out the hidden potential Call of Duty has hidden there.

    Kenshi walked through the front gate of the castle which was wide open even though it was night time. He had been running for hours and was stretching his arms which were feeling stiff. He was hoping something interesting would happen as he walked into th center of the castle town. "Anybody there? I want something to do! Come on!" he yelled. Nothing happened and he swore he saw a dust ball float by. He groaned and made his way to the castle at the other end. He heard a whispering behind him but ignored it and moved on.

    "Sir, are you waiting for the train?" A man asked Kenshi. He jerked awake from where he fell asleep on the floor at the train station. "YEa, do you know when it will get here?" "You just missed it, it left about twenty minutes ago." Kenshi jumped to his feet. "Well crap...hey," he asked slyly. "What direction on these tracks heads towards the castle?" The man looked suprised. "Directly north from here," he explained, pointing to their left. "Thanks!" He jumped on the tracks and began to run along them. He heard the man's suprised gasp behind him and huckled and he flew down the tracks. he watched where he stepped so he wouldn't trip, but these tracks seemed flatter than most that he had seen in the past. he ignored it and sped up, eager to get to the castle now and itching for another fight. The sun was beginning to set and he rushed, hoping he wouldn't get there before nightfall.

    Kenshi arrived at the town and pushed the door open, worried that this town would be like the last, but to his suprise the door opened to a bustling town of happy people. He walked in, relieved and asked around for the head of the town. "He is not here," said a meat vendor. "Can you tell me where i am then?" Kenshi asked. "You are in Whittleton." he responded. Kenshi began t think of what he was to do. "What is the name of the land?" "The land has no name, but there is a castle about fifty miles up north, you can take the train up there, should be here in a few hours." Kenshi nodded. He decided to take the train to the castle and get answers as to what the creatures were and if there was any help he could offer. He walked to the train station that the vendor pointed him to and sat there to wait for the train.

    Kenshi saw a strange red furred creature while walking down the road. He noticed it kept moving in a zigzag pattern as it sniffed the ground. "Hmph." He kept walking down the path, keeping an eye on the strange creature. He walked past it and it seemed to ignore him. He saw a another town in the distance and began to make his way towards it.

    Cool let's start

    Name: Kenshi Muyo

    Age: 800

    Home: None

    Appearance: Long white hair down to his shoulders, dark red shirt, black pants, blue eyes

    Weapon(s): A Long Sword on his back and a Katana on his side

    Experience: lifetimes of demon hunting

    Personality: scarcastic, strong, confident, quick-witted, friendly, helpful

    Kenshi found himself in a small destroyed village. He walked around trying to figure out how he got there. He was chasing a small group of demons that ran into a dark cave and when he followed them he found himself in this village. There was a dark cloudy sky above him and he could smell blood. Kenshi pulled the katana from his side and flipped it around in his hand. He continued walking holding the sword across his shoulders and yawning out of boredom. "Come on out already!" he yelled. Suddenly the demons he was chasing busted out of one of the buildings and attacked him. He fluidly cut one down and swung to slice another. It knocked him back and he flipped back onto his feet. He pulled a small knife from his belt and threw it for a kill. He killed the last few with ease and slipped his sword back into its sheath. He found the door to the village and walked out into a big field. "Guess i better figure out where i am and what the hell i'm gonna do. Hope there's more monsters so i don't get bored!"
