7 Games That Call Of Duty: Advanced Warfare Is “Borrowing” From

So, there it is then. The new trailer for Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare. Except, it's a franchise that's now basically synonymous with creating its sequels using "ctrl + V" shortcuts, so how much of it is really new? It's not a series in its death throes, by any stretch of the imagination, and even middle-of-the-road reviews for last year's Ghosts couldn't stop it from selling $1 billion worth of units in just 24 hours. But overall - compared with the previous Black Ops 2 numbers - sales were down.

On top of hulking exoskeletal suits, there also appears to be some allusion to a slightly more skintight one-piece.  I suppose I could quite as easily have substituted Vanquish for Crysis here, but frankly, the former is just miles better and I fancied talking about it. The jist is the same though: wear it and be super fast, or super strong, or super handsome, or whatever.

It appears to imbue the particular soldiers in Advanced Warfare with the ability to punch through cars and the like, so either way I’m all for it. Who wouldn’t want to punch through a car, after all? Will it make it remotely as ingenious and exciting as playing through bullet-hell bang-fest Vanquish? Again, we don’t know yet. But I’m certain it will easily match it on the explosions-per-second scale, which Micheal Bay assures me is much more important.
