Would Call of Duty be better as a rail shooter?

lol this thread is awesome.

So the Call of Duty games would be good if they were changed completely and became rail shooters? Well I guess I agree with that.

I also think Sonic would be a great game if it was designed to be more Mario-like. And the Persona games would be fun if they were 50 hours shorter. I could do this all day...

Sonic isn't a great game?

It's good as far as Genesis games go.

In Call of Duty-style games, you don't eat dogfood to heal and get better, you just have a sit behind a rock until you're magically unaffected by the 30 bullets lodged in your chest. There is really no gameplay benefit to exploring the world around you.

(from tonight's session on Medal of Honor Rising Sun)
You mean taking 190 hits and not dying is too unrealistic?

But 54 head shots even and they all died at once! I also explored by completing a BONUS OBJECTIVE!

I love rail shooters, I love FPS. Make them whatever you want, I'll still play them.

Like being able to breath underwater for levels that had water in them, instead of becoming slow death traps where you pray for sweet sweet release?

I would probably play COD if it was a light gun on rail games. Maybe Activision can team up with Sega. Just have them make House of the Nazis. Or Virtua Soldier. Or Machineguns DE 1944. Gunblade Baghdad.

Maybe Sega doesn't need Activision.
