The fourth fish with a cock and a doody

Hmm, long title… Could have been better put… But yes, I have been playing a lot of CoD4 lately. And I mean a lot. According to my 360 Voice, I played it 6 days last week. It’s getting to the point where it’s less "addictive" and more "life-threatening if isn’t played". However, I have told myself I’ll stop once I get to Level 55. Since I’ll never ever be doing prestige mode, there’s not much else point in playing after Level 55.

A question which I think is on everyone’s lips (or at least those who play the game, and those have lips) - what is the ideal equipment setup? I can’t tell for sure, but I know that each of my 5 custom classes fulfil a different purpose.

• Assault
  G36c with either Grenade Launcher or Red Dot Sight, Gold Desert Eagle, 3xFrag (when using Red Dot), Stopping Power, Last Stand
  I’m using the G36 right now to try and get skilled with a second assault rifle. I used to use the M4 all the time, but fancied a change. Grenade Launcher or Red Dot depends on my mood and whether I want to start owning people with direct grenade impacts
• Snipe
  Dragunov Barrett .50 Cal (Digital Camo), Gold Desert Eagle, Claymore, UAV Jammer, Iron Lungs
  Bolt-action snipers never worked for me, and the Dragunov works very well for me. Especially in Hardcore Team Deathmatch, when mot of the time it’s a one-hit kill.
• Demo
  M1014, USP, 3xFrag or RPG, Sonic Boom, Martyrdom
  This is my lesser used class, mainly since shotguns are rarely effective these days. But the odd time I might break it out and have a little fun
• Recon
  P90 (Digital Blue Tiger Camo) with Silencer, M9 with Silencer, Bandolier, UAV Jammer, Extreme Conditioning
  This class is really turning into my primary class, since I use it almost all the time. UAV Jammer and silencers make me undetectable. Plus given how the P90 can rip through ammo, Bandolier gives me an extra 4 magazines. And Extreme Conditioning lets me do sort of "hit-and-run" kills.
• Heavy
  M4 (Blue Tiger Camo) with ACOG, P90 with Red Dot, 3xFrag, Overkill, Deep Impact
  I haven’t yet been able to work this one to my advantage just yet. The M4 gives me the range while the P90 works well for close quarters combat. You could say it’s the "run in with all guns blazing" class

Anyway, enough about the guns and classes, I’ve got other stuff to take care of that isn’t CoD4-related. Such as watching the new Pokémon movie: The Rise of Darkrai now it’s on YouTube, and also figuring out some way of getting rid of this hacking cough. Every time, I get huge pains in my chest and it just won’t go away!
