COD is carried by nostalgia, I remember being a caca and playing MW over and over again. I only played BO relatively recently and while they're good, BO2 is kinda sucky ngl, those modern missions are kinda ass.
BO2 is cool in one regard, that being the ability to easily save and watch replays of matches similar to Halo 3 (before they shut down file sharing), but otherwise it seems overrated.
COD is a caca's first shooter but if you played them without the nostalgia factor, they wouldn't seem as good.

Animal Crossing is a woman game.
Trvke too, but Animal Crossing on the Gamecube had 21 NES games obtainable which you could then play right in Animal Crossing:
- Balloon Fight
- Baseball
- Clu Clu Land
- Clu Clu Land: Welcome to New CluClu Land
- Donkey Kong
- Donkey Kong Jr.
- Donkey Kong 3
- Donkey Kong Jr. Math
- Excitebike
- Golf
- Gomoku Narabe Renju
- Ice Climber
- The Legend Of Zelda
- Mahjong
- Mario Bros
- Pinball
- Punch Out
- Soccer
- Super Mario Bros
- Tennis
- Wario Woods
2 of these swap depending on whether you're playing the US/EU or the JP version, so you only have 19 actual NES games, and another 4 were not normally available, but this still leaves 15 NES games and the 4 "normally not obtainable" ones in Animal Crossing for Gamecube can be obtained via hax or getting the item traded to you.
As for Animal Crossing City Folk for the Wii though, it's just keyed and based because I can scream noob in voice chat over a Wii Speak o algo.
Never really played Halo, so I never understood the autism around it.
Halo multiplayer is very fun, campaigns are fun too tho. Halo 2 is noteworthy to me though, all Halo games until Halo 5 had 4 player splitscreen online, but Halo 2 also had in-game clans, and unlike Halo MCC, it was a proper clan system rather than just adding your clan name above your gamertag. Thus, you could easily use this for online as though it were a second friends list. I haven't been able to test it yet due to only having 1 controller, but I wouldn't be surprised if any of 4 players on one console could check their friends list and clan list, rather than only player 1 being able to do this. If this is the case, it would've been even easier to get a full-lobby.
Halo 3, ODST, Reach, and 4 allow 4P Splitscreen Online as well but they don't have clan lists, so rather than 100 friends and 100 clanmates per account, you only have 100 friends. This still isn't hard at all to manage, but someone who plays the game for many hours could easily benefit from what is essentially a second friends list for a single game. Also, I like Halo 2's game mechanics moar than future Halo games mechanics, it's a perfect mix of Halo CE's chaos with features like dual-wielding which are also in the newer Halos.
Mario Kart is only fun with friends and even then just play double dash in dolphin.
Trvke.
To be honest, Mario Kart Wii and 8 Deluxe would be way more enjoyable for me if they had 24 player lobbies, 4 player online splitscreen, and a way to create your own custom tracks. MKWii is easy to mod and there's infinite modpacks to make the tracks more than the well known 32, MK8DX requires more effort to do this though and even if you paid for the DLC or just found a way to get it for free, such as via leeching off frens, you'll *eventually* play through all 96 tracks and get bored of it too.
I note the 4P splitscreen online because Mario Kart is probably *the* perfect game to implement something like this. The Switch definitely could've handled having 4 players per console, with 24 total people in a lobby, but it wasn't implemented for whatever reason. Not surprising because it's Nintendo, but I can easily see the usage of this. Me and friends have occasionally done 2 player splitscreen online in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, we have 2 systems and 2 copies of the game so it's not too big of a deal, but if we didn't, it would quickly become impossible to do more than that if we wanted to race against other people in WorldWides rather than just on a single console. On the sizes of TVs we have now, 4 player splitscreen could be done in a way that doesn't even make it hard to see assuming you setup said TV correctly. Even if I used a 4:3 screen, 4 player splitscreen isn't too hard to do on games like Halo, albeit, you have to look more closely sometimes.
i put in like over 400 hours into animal crossing new horizons idk why this wasnt even during covid either
I put around 600 hours into Animal Crossing New Horizons technically, but most of that was either idling or during COVID, so not a big surprise there. I used to trade turnips a lot in the game, I ended up getting around 110 million bells before getting extremely bored. There just isn't much to do in Animal Crossing after you pay off your house unless you have other people to play with, and there are way better games one could play than Animal Crossing. I have considered redesigning my island, but eh, idk. I have a day 1 save regardless, one of the only games I'll probably ever have preordered.
