I am starting to like to Call of Duty franchise :-) I have not played their World War II games, mostly because I don't like that era for this type of game, but who knows, once I am done with whatever I can play on my xbox 360 from this series, I might go back and revisit the first 3 CoD games (plus world at war), which take place in WWII.

Σήμερα χαιρόμαστε το «π», με μια πίτα! Η πίτα (pie), και το π (pi) είναι ομόφωνα, και έτσι λοιπόν κάποιος geek μάγειρας αποφάσισε να τα συνδιάσει!
