Hey, what's up this is SaintofLosAngelesXD(m). I love Call of Duty games, they're my favorite shooters, but I also like Medal of Honor, Battlefield, SOCOM, Brothers in Arms, Halo, and anything Tom Clancy.

About Me
"Sometimes I think it should be a rule of war that you have to see somebody up close and get to know him before you can shoot him." - M*A*S*H, Colonel Potter

My Edit Count

I love FPS games, and I also play sports and racing games. Not much for RPGs, especially games like World of Warcraft. I've come across a few RTS games that I've liked, mainly EndWar and Battle for Middle Earth.

I love fish, I've got a huge aqarium with all sorts of tropical fish.

I love shooting guns, not just in games, but in real life. I am a pretty good shot, not the best. I work as a gunsmith. I own a Bi-Tone Springfield XD(m) in 9mm, a Kimber Ultra Custom II (A 1911 style, .45 ACP), a regular Bi-Tone XD in 9mm, a Beretta 92FS (9mm), and a Glock 22 (.40).

Sorry if I don't respond to your messages quickly, sometimes I'll check my e-mail every five minutes, sometimes I won't check it for weeks.

I play guitar, although I'm not very good.

I absolutely loathe the word Deagle. It is Desert Eagle. Period. I also hate people who would choose a Desert Eagle above any other pistol in a tactical situation. The only real thing it's good for is as a scare tactic, and anybody who actually knows anything about guns would not be scared by it. If you're using it in a real combat situation, you better hope your first shot hits your target, because if not, you'll probably die.

I really like writing. I get a lot of shit from my friends about it, but I'm a Harry Potter fan. I've thought about writing my own fan fiction.

I love to travel, although I've never been out of the country. If I could go anywhere, I would go to Europe, mainly Italy, Spain, and Germany. But not France. Good Lord, NOT France. I also think it'd be interesting to visit countries like Croatia, Kosovo, and Serbia.

I'm a big classic rock fan, particularly AC/DC, Lynyrd Skynyrd, and Motley Crue. My favorite guitarists are Santana and Hendrix. Unlike most fans of the genre, I'm not opposed to rap and hip-hop, but I cannot stand country and pop music.

My Call of Duty
"If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles." - Sun-Tzu

I've played every Call of Duty game out there at least once, including mobile and online versions, and I must say that Modern Warfare is my favorite. The Call of Duty games I have are Call of Duty, COD2, and COD 4, all for PC. I can't wait for COD:MW2, and I also plan on getting WAW for zombies, as well as UO just to have every PC game.

My godson has COD4 and WAW for DS, and Roads to Victory for PSP, which I will play on occassion. I'll probably get him Mobilized for his birthday.

To me, it will always be Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2.

My Weapons
"I know not what weapons World War III will be fought with, but World War IV will be fought with sticks and stones." - Albert Einstein

I definitely have some preferences to the guns I play with, I'll pick these up whenever I see them on the ground. These preferences are based mainly on appearance and sound, not actual performance. These are also based mainly on single player, since I rarely play multiplayer due to my computer's horrible ping. This list does not include special or fictional weapons (Ray gun, Wunderwaffe DG-2, Monkey Bomb, Holy Pistol, BRAAAINS..., Default Weapon, Mosin Nagant Ammo, Crowbar, Golden Weapons, Pack-a-Punch Upgraded Weapons). Note: I know the STG-44 is now considered an assault rifle, but since "assault rifle" was not really an official classification at the time of it's introduction, I have placed it under the "support" category to make room for the semi-automatics of WWII. Please feel free to leave me a message if you see an error or want to help me fill in the blank spaces. Don't edit it yourself unless it is a spelling, formatting, or similar mistake.

My Suggestions to Call of Duty
"Si vis pacem, para bellum." - Latin Adage

In my opinion, the Call of Duty series is in desperate need of a bigger variety of pistols. I love playing with just pistols, I call it "Jack Bauer Style" (especially with the silenced USP). I'd love to see the Springfield XD(m) in COD:MW2, but I doubt it. Maybe at least a plain old XD. Robert Bowling confirmed in an interview there would be more pistols in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, so fingers crossed! I'm happy about the Glock 18 coming to Call of Duty as well. I think a revolver or two would be fun as well, something like the Taurus Raging Bull or the Smith &amp; Wesson M&amp;P R8. I'd also like to see an FN Five-seveN, Walther P99, Beretta PX4 Storm, and a new design for the 1911, it was ugly in COD4. I'd love the Kimber Custom II design. The Metal Storm handgun would be really cool, but I highly doubt that.

Other weapons I'd like to see are Beretta RX4 and CX4 Storm, KAC M110 Sniper, Ruger Mini-14 GB, LWRC IAR, MAG-7 ShotgunCheyTac Intervention, M32 MGL, and HK MP7.

Now that they've broken out of WWII and gone on to Modern Warfare, they should go to the other major wars of the 20th Century - WWI, Korea, and Vietnam. These would be hard games to make, but I think Call of Duty could do it. (Either IW or Treyarch, they are BOTH great developers)

What I Don't Like About Call of Duty
"You have been killed by an exploding vehicle. Vehicles on fire are likely to explode." - Infinity Ward

Not much to complain about with the games themselves, but some of the people who play them can miff me a bit.

There are few things I hate more than fanboys bickering about what's better than the other, be it Xbox 360 v. PS3, Mac v. PC, Treyarch v. Infinity Ward, PSP v. DS. I believe that each has its strong points and its weak points.

I also hate when people say that the G36c or AKS-74u are submachine guns. Just because a gun is short does not make it a submachine gun, it has to fire PISTOL ammo. The G36c and AKS-74u fire 5.56 and 5.45 caliber RIFLE ammunition. Making them RIFLES. (The armor piercing pistol rounds of PDWs are kind of a gray area, as is the case with the P90, MP7, KAC PDW etc.)

I absolutley hate people who think they actually know shit about guns because they play video games or have heard of the AK-47, Uzi, or Desert Eagle. When someone brings this up I thoroughly enjoy quizzing them on technical details about the gun, ie caliber, barrel length, mag capacity etc, and subsequently watching them squirm.

I personally don't like calling people noobs or saying people fight cheap. I don't have a problem with people who do use those terms, but I like to play as realistically as possible. In real war, there are no noobs, no camping, no fighting cheap. There is only fighting to survive.

I don't believe in mods. I play the game the developers wanted it to be played. (Although I have nothing against those who do play and/or make mods)

I don't plan on doing a lot of editing, mainly contributing to discussions. I'll maybe make a few edits when I see something that needs work, especially when I see an opinionated article, one of the most annoying things in the world. I also hate when people put up fanon or obviously false speculation, as well as when articles are plagued with constant spelling and grammar errors.
