Call of Duty and so, SO many other games in this genre are incredibly bland/unoriginal, maddeningly popular, a point of obsession for an incredible amount of elementary/middle-schoolers (which is being supported by their parents, mind you. THEIR PARENTS!), and pointlessly violent.

Their mere prolonged existence is a point of much contention for me.

No, see PPJ's and Zero's answers.

And Liam, if you think they are bad for your brain, why do you play them?

Yes. Thank you.

It's games like that that take away from the development of things like Portal or L.A. Noire that require more than a pulse to play.
