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.

Okay, bear with me on this one. It may sound a little bit insane, but think about it for a second. It appears that the main character’s of Advanced Warfare are now able to spring about West coast America, scale scenery, and generally do that weird ‘hanging in midair’ pose that has become synonymous with Sucker Punch’s generic badass.

These faux-parkour elements seem like a bit of a no-brainer addition to the CoD franchise, especially when considering my very first bullet point on this list. Will it stack up to make the game fun? It’s a tough question, more so as I’m struggling to name a fun Spider-Man video game. Maybe slowly climbing up the side of a building will just be another of those scripted single-player facets and not make it into the multiplayer (read: main) section of the game at all.

One further observation that immediately strikes you is that all this way into the future, beanie hats are apparently still very much in fashion. Invest.
