A step into the unknown for me now, a cheeky post in the gaming section here at Gaj-It and a check on that number one game spot for Christmas.
The most eagerly anticipated game this year….bar none is Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 and it just so happens that this is the game that leads the Christmas number one odds, and it’s not even been released yet!
The Sequel to Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, this game intends to stretch the boundaries of console gaming to new limits and I think it’s going to do it with ease. Call of Duty 4 was the top selling game worldwide in 2007 and from a lot of experience of playing that game myself I hope along with the millions and millions of others that it’s sequel will be absolutely dazzling. (Out on November 10th)
A quick look at the odds then and as we’ve just heard Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 leads the pack with odds of 13/8. Second and closely behind is the second installment of Assassin’s Creed at 9/4 which could turn out to be a good bet. A few outside bets now in the shape of ever popular FIFA 10 at 6/1 and Halo 3: ODST at 10/1 which could get yourself a pretty penny if they were to become Christmas number 1!
In all honestly though and being serious for just one second, I can’t look past Call of Duty to make the Christmas number one spot purely because the original Modern Warfare game was so good and there is an incredibly large fan-base for the series so I’m pretty sure that will wrap it up spick and span!
Come on Infinity Ward!

Why is always the shooty slashy games that get the top spot? I’ve just been bought Mini Ninjas and it’s awesome! Or give me a good JRPG anyday. You know- something with plot?
That said I’ve never played to COD games. And I can’t balance the camera and run in Halo without half an hour immersion time first! (Yes I’m not the best ambassador for girl gamers it would appear…)
haha well i suppose i can answer your question. It’s because they’re so good that’s why, also they incorporate new technology in gaming so everybody wants to buy it to see what’s new. It’s pretty similar in style to Halo so if you can’t do that then you wouldn’t get along with COD games!
Saying that after a while one of my best girl mates is pretty good on COD so maybe you could get some practice in yourself? :)
