EA’s parody spoof “Duty Calls” hits 1.25 million downloads

7 February 2011

Last week we reported on EA’s blatant Call of Duty spoof, Duty Calls, a free ten minute long FPS created with the purpose of poking fun at the Call of Duty franchise, and advertising their upcoming Bulletstorm.

Duty Calls feature list

• Duty Vision slows down the action so you can unload a storm of bullets
• Immersive dialogue from the front lines
• Cold, calculated realism
• Killing animations motion captured from real actors
• True-life reloading system allows for mistakes in putting the cartridge in the gun
• Iconic sound effects
• Thwart an enemy threat that could topple the country and possibly the world
• Significant and historically accurate props

The game was released as part of a promotional campaign for Epic Games and People Can Fly’s upcoming shooter, Bulletstorm, which promises to never take itself too seriously.

According to EA, over 1.25 million people have downloaded Duty Calls, which is a free 759 MB download that you can grab here.
