Scratch Head Laughing

Explanation:

Quote:

EA has unveiled an extremely cheeky new game called 'Duty Calls'. If you're foreseeing a polite homage to the biggest FPS in the market, think again.

The free downloadable title pretty much sends up every notable aspect of Triple-A military shooters - and aims its crosshairs squarely at Activision.

In truth, Duty Calls is something of a marketing stunt from EA and the makers of new FPS Bulletstorm - Epic Games and People Can Fly. The title is referenced at the end of Duty Calls' ten-minute playthrough time.

Epic's Cliff Bleszinski Tweeted: "Wow. Blown away. This game will redefine military shooters for years to come."

Will Activision's lawyers see the funny side? We're not sure. But we do know that the Duty Calls site carries the stipulation: "*Duty Calls is a parody. It is not associated with Activision or the Call of Duty games."

"Here's your objective," says a commander over the radio in the trailer for the title. "Blah blah blah... secret base. Blah blah blah... nuclear missle bomb. Blah blah blah... counting on you. Good luck."

At the end the joke is on EA though. This publicity stunt is actually funnier than the supposedly funny "Bulletstorm" Laughing

I'd rather they spent their time giving us a demo then wasting their time coding this shit from scratch, funny or not.

You dont know how long it took for them to make this one compare to what it would take to do a demo. So stop whining imo Smile

Edit: Reason why I think its a bunch of whining is cos the majority here download the pirated copy of the game anyway so you can use that as a "demo" instead. I must however exclude myself from the ones that download the iso since I stopped doing that ages ago Razz

Because:

# - Various stability improvements

and

# - Singleplayer audio stuttering on some systems

Lol. I don't even own a console, other than a Wii for the kids. I just thought someone whining about a dev putting out a fun little item rather than only working on the usual demo reminded me of that article. Lol.
