Schüler/innen sammeln Unterschriften

Dieses Beispiel sollte Schule machen: Eine Gruppe von Schülern und Schülerinnen der Notre Dame Highschool in Massachusetts protestiert derzeit durchaus medienwirksam gegen das Töten von deutschen Schäferhunden im Spiel “Call of Duty: World at War”.

Sprecherin Breanna Lucci, eine der Schülerinnen: “Hunde als eine Form der Unterhaltung wieder und wieder zu töten. Das ist eines der Ziele dieses Spieles. Die Eltern sollten wissen, was sie ihren Kindern da anschaffen. Der Mord von Tieren sollte niemals zu Unterhaltungszwecken missbraucht werden.”

Unterstützung für die initiierte Unterschriftensammlung bekamen sie und ihrer Mitstreiter/innen von einer örtlichen Tierschutzorganisation. Dessen Sprecher befürchtet durch derlei Games eine Desensibilisierung der Spieler. Die gesammelten Unterschriften sollen später einem Vertreter des Spiele-Herstellers übergeben werden.

Rating: 8 Out of 10

Call of Duty: World at War is from the guys who made Call of Duty 3, but not the guys who made Call of Duty 4, and it has returned to the World War II side of things against the Japanese Theater. This game has basically everything that you would expect from Call of Duty 4. The control scheme, the graphics, and the audio all are great and immerse yourself in the era. The story also makes a good impact and you can share that adventure with your friends with the 4 player cooperative campaign. There are some new weapons as well like bayonets and flamethrowers that should keep you interested for a while. The multiplayer system is a complete copy of Call of Duty 4 except it is back in World War II. The spawn points in the multiplayer are very bad and I am hoping that will be patched soon. You don’t like when people spawn behind ya or you spawn and it’s instant death. Lastly, a cool feature is when you beat the game, you get the Nazi Zombie gameplay. However, this is a familiar setting, with familiar guns, and familiar game mechanics. Also, expect to be frustrated on Veteran difficulty and be prepared for a lot of grenades being spam at your hiding location. Overall, this is a fun game, but it seems to be a direct copy off of Call of Duty 4 with no real improvements to the system. If you liked all of the Call of Duty games though, you will like this one as well.

Pros:

+ Gritty, exciting story

+ Same excellent multiplayer system

+ Four-player cooperative campaign

+ Bayonets and flamethrowers

+ Nazi Zombies

Cons:

- Familiar setting

- Familiar game mechanics

- Familiar guns

- Veteran will get you frustrated

- Everyone keeps throwing grenades!

Building on the Call of Duty 4®: Modern Warfare engine, Call of Duty: World at War thrusts players into the ruthless and gritty chaos of combat like never before, and challenges them to band together to survive the most harrowing and climactic battles of WWII that led to the demise of the Axis powers on the European and South Pacific fronts.  The title re-defines WWII games by offering an uncensored experience with unique enemies and combat variety, including Kamikaze fighters, ambush attacks, Banzai charges and cunning cover tactics, as well as explosive on-screen action through all new cooperative gameplay.

KEY FEATURES:

• Call of Duty 4 Technology – Built using the Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare engine, Call of Duty: World at War utilizes a bedrock of technology that delivers jaw-dropping visuals, while empowering players to employ elements like fire to affect the dynamics of the battlefield. Players that attempt to harness the power of new weapons, like the flamethrower, will find themselves capable of burning away environmental elements that give cover to a camouflaged enemy, leaving a charred battlefield – and their foes – in their wake.
• Coordinated Assault and Support – For the first time in the franchise, Call of Duty: World at War introduces co-op, bringing fresh meaning to the “No One Fights Alone” mantra. Call of Duty: World at War co-op features up to four-players online, or two-player local split-screen, allowing gamers to experience harrowing single-player missions together for greater camaraderie and tactical execution. The title also incorporates traditional multiplayer components such as challenges, rankings and online stats into the co-op campaign for deeper re-playability and advanced gameplay.
• New Theaters of Operation – Players fight as U.S. Marines and Russian soldiers facing enemies – some new to the Call of Duty franchise – that employ lethal new tactics and know no fear, no mercy, nor the rules of war. Epic conflicts are fought on multiple fronts, playing through the climactic battles of WWII in the grittiest, most chaotic and cinematically intense experience to date.
• Innovative Multiplayer – Multiplayer builds from the success of Call of Duty delivering a persistent online experience for more squad based interaction. New development with party systems allows an intimacy with squad based combat never before seen in Call of Duty. Combined infantry and vehicle missions add a new dimension to the online warfare and offers more PERK abilities.
• Cinematic Quality Graphics and Sound – Treyarch’s award-winning sound department returns with effects that add to the already immersive cinematic intensity of the Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare game engine.
