@ multiple responses - I introduced him to cod3 first because it was more european missions, which is the center of any WW2 fanatic. When he finished COD3 I'll get him WaW.
@people saying cod3 wii is terrible - I dont think its that terrible. Its nothing amazing, but a good intro for a non-gamer into the series.
@ people with parents that played games back in the day - my entire family, mom, dad, my bros and I were all a bigtime gaming family in the days of the 2600.My mom was a master Centipede player, and I think I played Combat against my day when I was 3 =)
@lingyis - true, but he's playing every day. My definition of "core gamer" is someone that consistently is gaming on a daily basis, that its part of their regular routine. I am NOT a core gamer, I only play a few days a week at most.
