A Parent's comical view of the game Call of Duty - 07-20-2010, 10:18 AM


Hoffman: Call of Duty video game has become a way of life | Ken Hoffman | Chron.com - Houston Chronicle

"I don't like to brag, but my 13-year-old son is the 4,043,614th best Call of Duty player in the world."

"It's not just kids playing Call of Duty. Marcus Coleman is a former Houston Texan and Dallas Cowboy. He played 11 years in the NFL and intercepted 25 passes, two for touchdowns. He's hooked on Call of Duty something bad, too.

"Sure, tell your kid I'll play him, but also tell him this - I don't ease up just because he's a kid. I play extra hard against kids," Coleman said."

I was playing the other night and to understand a couple of folks, it was a classic ebonics situation.

It's not just the kids that talk trash and sometimes I just mute all of them since they won't shut up. I do like letting some of the younger ones know they just got owned by an old fart though...

I still play COD2 a few times per week. Usually as photos are processing on the other computer. I have found a couple servers that weed out all the trash and have strict rules against cursing and other unsportsmanlike actions... It makes the gameplay much better!

I use to play MLG games, but that has passed. Sometimes the trash talk is fun, other times if it is not tactics it is not allowed. It is nice to go between the two.

I miss the good ole Halo days.
