Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 announced

Im in the middle between Halo and COD, i like both games but neither game has more right to keep going than the other, the point is some people like certin games that others may or may not like, im excited for this new COD but im also excited for the ODST, each game has something people like about it, weather one is more of a realistic type gamer, or a gamer who enjoys games with less limits, and not only that, this whole thing about skill, if a person plays Halo a lot, and then trys to play COD, they probably wont do as well as they did in Halo, and its the same way for a person who was COD more, it all depends on how used to the game you are playing. So both games are comming out and thats just something that everyone is going to have to deal with.

Infinty Ward going deep & hard. The only i love cod franchise is because of Infinty Ward. To tell you the truth, I really dont like trechyarch that much so they wont be respected by me. I hope that Infinty Ward put some guns in like m4 6.8, heavy machine guns and drivable M1A2s

just to let you know i understand the whole anti halo anti cod4 thing. but since when is reality part of a great game, reality when used correctly can make a ok game great, but never has and never will reality be a requirement for a good game. so dont go anti on something because it has it or dosnt have it. halo is a different type of game then cod4 or codmw2 (starting to get long...) i like both because its totally different experience and there the best games on each end of the FPS spectrum, (in my opinion) so dont hate, just like there will be a new halo game,(or something similar i promise, its a 1/1 chance lottery) there will most likely be a codMW 3 and then all the noobs will say the same thing about it.

get lost u losers cod is the best game evva!
nd Hudson u r totally right!!!
halo gets rly boring...cod is an awsum game thats kicks ass and will continue 2 kick
i got halo3 so i know wat im talkin about!

Alright...I love MW, but I love it because it's FUN, not realistic. Yes, Halo is getting old, and yes, CoD is better, but not because it's accurate to life, it's because it's fucking FUN.

Cod is an awesome game the only problem i have is that your character moves too much (because i love to snipe) but otherwise its the most realistic game series out there. I think Halo is fun for playing with just friends. I never play halo matchmaking. Oh also, Cod NEEDS to lose juggernaut

look huys modern warfares "futureistic" ways dosnt mean that there will be lasers and rocket ships lol.. i hear that are going to be guns much like the weapons on the hitosry channels future weapons. the auto ahotgun and the cornerpeaker i hear are going to be featured in the game. so just chill and before you go saying all these bad things how about you just wait for the dang game to come out

Just to throw this out there to all u morons who say COD is realistic...u do realise that certain weapons in the game arent even able to be held let alone shot accuratly by a human being. Besides in COD you can get shot by a 50 caliber sniper rifle and not die....that alone is garbage...second off there is no special power in real life to make you take more damage( GAY JUGGERNAUT). Oh and for you people who mock halo for being "unreal" ITS A SCIENCE FICTION game it wasnt intended to be realisitic...instead it was futuristic

Hudson. You are a complete retard.
Halo and Call of Duty are 2 COMPLETELY different games.
There is no way in hell that Halo is trying to be realistic.
On the other hand, Call of duty is the opposite and is TRYING to be realistic.

Halo is just a fantasy shooter with a VERY good story line. Its very competitive and it takes a lot of skill to be a good sniper.

Call of Duty is a Realistic shooter with VERY good graphics and has a very realistic feel. Its very competitive, but is very easy to be good at sniping because you only have to have the skill to aim and press the trigger.

Im on both sides. Halo is extremely fun, but it has had the same gameplay for Halo 1 and 2, which is starting to get everyone bored of it.

But the thing about Realistic shooters is that, its based of real life, and if all the rest of the Call of Dutys that come out are the same thing then it will get boring even faster then Halo. In a fantasy game, if its starting to get repetitive, they can just use there imaginations and add tons of stuff. With Realistic games, they cant just imagine something and put it in, because it has to be realistic.
If Call of duty follows the same route, it will get boring even faster then halo.

Halo is a great game... It has set some pretty amazing sales and play records.
Call of Duty is also a great game, because if your tired of fantasy, you can go pretend to be a real soldier in Call of duty.

So please, all you people who say "OH HALO IS SOOOO GAY! BECAUSE ITS NOT REALISTIC!" Please shut up because, You are leaving stupid remarks without backing them up. Just like Hudson with his Red and Blue jumpsuit remark, lol.

EVERYONE SHUT UP AND ENJOY THE DAMN GAMES! STOP HATING!

nathan_dts :) war in the past is in...the past, i mean have u seen how un-realistic the guns fire on COD 2 and 3, not to metion the graphics and the explosions from grenades, and world at war is like COD 3 in my opinion, driveable vehicles, old weapons, its just more realisic, like the MP40 fire rate, since when does the MP40 fire like a proper machine gun ? and when did it ever sound big and powerfull?

i know i sound like a gun-a-holic, but i aint lol i cant wiate for this game, and futureistic COD sounds ok, aslong as it isnt to far int he future with aliens and big hitech lasers the size of a tank

I think that these COD games are getting a bit out of hand. There're too many. Modern Warfare was a masterpiece, just how much better can it really get. All my friends are raving and chanting about MW2. What more can the add? More new special unheard of OPP forces? Just stop making COD games for at least a couple years because it's getting really anoying

My problem with Call of Duty 4 and World at war is that the online multiplayer tricks the gamer; it allows them to get about 5 or 6 kills so they aren't annoyed at there pathetic gaming and also kills come to easily


my response to that- kills come to easy? you got that all wrong buddy. the call of duty series is a gaming experience that actually involves realistic feautures unlike games like gaylo.....opps i mean halo. your probaly the person that comes in last every match so you complain about this game becoming to hard. i feel bad for people like you

Yo I love rice

I dont understand everybody at all. What people seem NOT to realize is a few simple things. It almost makes me laugh to sit here and read these post to hear a bunch of people arguing which is better and what COD:MW 2 should be about.

Fact number 1: The CoD series got started from making WWII titles and thats what make the series big. Just because they go back and make another WWII title after you got a taste of modern warfare, it doesnt mean it is worse. You are just used to modern technology and it seems like a downgrade to you.

Fact number 2: Im not a Halo fan but I have played my fair share of it online and off. It is more of a fantasy futuristic game and thats why it takes a few hits to kill somebody. "Fantasy" is the key word. The CoD series is based off of real wars mostly in WWII, so damage is supposed to be more realistic. They try to make it as close to a combat simulator as they can get.

When creating MW, they were trying to take a new approach with the next generation consoles, trying to push the limits of what they could and making a "modern" version of CoD. Yes it ended up being a big hit. The campaign was short but it was something new and fresh and a gorgeous sight for the eyes to see. The multiplayer is a blast and even though there may be a lot of campers, or a lot of people that frag the crap out of you, use the rifle mounted grenade launcher, or any other cheap way to kill, you just have to figure out your way around it. No matter what game you play, if it is a FPS, there will be campers. Just as any serious gamer would know, if there is a camper, there is always a way to get to them. Even if they all camp, just make your team sit out of sight and make the campers come to you. Its not that hard to figure out.

So if you are wanting a more fantasy like FPS with futuristic gear, go for Halo, If you are wanting realistic, go CoD.

If you ever notice or listen to what Activision says about their CoD games, most of them are based (not true stories) but based off of similar battles. When they created MW, they used modern tactics as far as the way the fire fights happen (Like calling in for air support) Also take note that the main enemies were middle eastern. (also like a lot of today's wars) Therefor, the chance of them making a futuristic version of a CoD game is slim to none. They are war games based on realism, not what is a fantasy or a prototype.

So in actuality, CoD 4: MW was by far the best "modern" CoD to date. While CoD 2: BRO was the best in the WWII era. (both in my own opinion) If you are a gamer going for realism, the CoD is the best way to go. BUT...this also means it could be harder for those not used to it since the damage is more realistic than other FPS's. Thats the way the gaming industry works, the closer you get to reality, the harder it becomes because reality is no simple matter.

I noticed somebody earlier mentioned something about Left for Dead. I just played that for my first time last week and I thought that game rocked! The game was short but the replay value of it got more and more interesting since things always changed. I didnt play it online but I did play the CO-OP and I had a blast with that. My friend and I have beat the game on normal and hard in no time. We are still working on expert and have a few more challenges to get. The only complaints I have about the game is simply small ones. The game was a little too short for my taste, and you dont have enough weapon variety. I dont mind being able to upgrade at a certain point, that made things a little different and somewhat smoother. Other than that, no major glitches, awesome gameplay, controls were great and I hate that damn tank! It always likes to make me its prime target for some damn reason! Haha! But that definitely makes it a lot more fun and challenging to me. I always like a good challenge.

Wow, I can't believe people are actually hating on Call of Duty 4. Why is it such a bad thing for a player to not need skill to play the game? It's called accessibilty. An average joe can pick up the game and have a blast while a seasoned veteran can continue to be challenged and find sufficient competition. The point is that anyone can play this game at their own level. I don't get why that's bad.

I'm not saying games need to be ridiculously easy just so people who suck can play them, but CoD has such a great learning curve so that if you are great at shooters, you can (and will) be challenged by those at your level. Anyone can play this game. It's not exclusive like Halo or Gears of War.

I don't know, Call of Duty 4 is a great game and deserves respect.

Yee haw for fast paced multiplayer.

WTF? Am i the only 1 here isnt all that impressed from the so-called realism in cod. I mean its realistics in how som1 would die, but fuckn vietnam, and wwii werent fought with fuckn 6 on 6 guys, 100 feet away from each other in 2 little house. Therefore its not realistic. So if ur gonna get away from real-war environments, and tactics, then why not have fun with it and use cool, laser guns, crazy vehicles, and do weird shit on sick maps. If ur gonna play a god game, anyway, why not be unrealistic? if u want realistic, fuckn go outside, play tag, play baseball, play football, paintball, jogg, etc.,,, but if wanna relax and take ur mind off shit then HAVE FUN WITH IT AND USE UR IMAGINATION DAMMIT!!!!

If call of duty were to make a futuristic version, it might not be a bad step for them. I'm sure you all remember battlefield 1942. They were abou the realism of war as well, and now they have a battlefield 2142, and it's a pretty decent game. It's not super crazy with lazers and automatic heat seeking sticky grenade launchers, it's still the same game, just a few cool twists. A futuristic cod wouldn't be all that bad.

Who says COD4 isn't unique?
It's probably one the most, if not THE most, realistic fist person shooters ever created.
You can't compare halo to cod4, they both may be first person shooters but they both fall in different categories. It's like asking what's better to eat, Pepperoni pizza, or italian pepperoni pizza. sure they seem the same, but one doesn't even have meat.

Halo doesn't utilize the aiming sights as well as cod4 does, the only time you ever really use the aiming sights in halo is when you're sniping or using the battle rifle. Don't get me wrong, i like the gameplay of halo, but the fact that you use the sights in COD4 and World at war so frequently, it sets a new standard for first person shooters all together. In cod4, if you don't aim, you probably won't kill them, that is unless you use a shotgun or you just get lucky and you're close enough.

I have yet to see a single fps war game with such intensity and realism as the cod series.

why are people complaining about betteys...they are mines correct...didnt COD4 have mines? i dont see people complaining about the claymores...im sorry but if u complain about 1 thing, u have to complain about the other...simple, u cant just say....y are they using mines when they used mines in the previouse games.

dont listen to the guy saying stop making call of duty continue and keep on going and keep the production of modern warfare 2 cuz it will sell and be the best game of the 2009 year by a landslide unlike halo 3 which sucked ass and sucks and its a wannabe version of cd4

I loved Cod 4 then i got Cod WaW and it definetly wasnt as good. Im stoked for this and I think that they should make it so u can play with 2 ppl or more at ur house on live like on Halo 3.

halo 3 ist a crap
cod is the real life you hate it because you suck

cod4 is one of the best game ever

cod4 is one of the best game ever and halo 3 suck ass

ws

Hey Hudson and Killa chill out with the Halo Bashing. Sure there are differences in the games and i personally like CoD better, but Halo is still a great game. Its just a different kind of game. It was never ment to be realistic at all, i have no clue where you got the idea. Why not hate on other non-realistic games that have failed for the most part when it comes to online play, IE Lost Planet, Crackdown, Saints Row, and LOTR game, and the list goes on. Halo and CoD are two completely different games geared towards different people. One last thing, dont tell me that xbox would be what it is now if it werent for the halo franchise.

Halo is the most terrible game in the world its made for NOOBS and CoD4 was and still is the best of its Franchise. Yes i do agree that Cod modern warfare 2 should make it that you need skill to win rather than giving a person, who has no idea what they're doing, an M-16 to kill people with A shot. Hundreds of people I talk to of this game agree that there should be a possible way to have two or more attachments to a weapon, maybe as a perk that may be possible. Oh and PLEASE NO glitches this time, the game already sucks with all the NOOBS with their M-16 / grenade launcher and Juggernaut. Oh and once again...... HALO IS GARBAGE!!!

I really can't wait for cod mw2 to come out
i think that cod 4 is better then cod WaW

I am looking forward to Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare 2 for a couple reasons that I have heard online... blowing up buildings, driving vehicles, and MORE WEAPONS! It is going to be like Battlefeild: Bad Company, without the annoying controls, which I have. I am truthfully also looking forward to the Halo Wars coming out tomorrow, I don't have one reserved, but I am looking forward to seeing the onine play, it will be like Empire Earth (talk about old!) Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare 2 will be a must have for all the COD series lovers, with great gameplay, it is going to be bigger than Halo 3, and Halo 3 was on comercials too!

i knew there was going to be another call of duty game at such a high success they couldn't just stop. I used to play halo 2 and 3 but then i came across call of duty and bye bye halo. i played MW for like 3 monthes, went back to halo and i realised you couldnt focus, align your gun to your eye and it just felt so lame and like all i was doing was spraying everywhere the only skill holding the joystick down to stop the gun going spastic and now never playing halo again. it would seem stupid but i wouldnt mind a new type of call of duty going waaaaaaaaayyy back. i think it would kick ass to go back to spears, bow and arrow's, swords. maybe a bit of magic. two spears being like RPG's, fire arrow's as a perk, jungle fighting areas, big temples and castles, samurai swords, cross bow's. but thats just me, im a big fan of those type of games. im 10th prestige lvl 55 on CoD 4 and it has now gotten boring. WaW i got to level 50 then gave it to my mate, bit of a disappointment, lots of spawn killing and glitches. zombies was a great idea but got boring after a few games, maybe if there were more zombie maps i would of definitely kept the game. personal opinion WaW would of been great if that was made instead of CoD 4, and CoD 4 comes out in place of WaW, because going from good to bad just plain sucks. and i read a lot of the comments to the person that said CoD takes no skill, yeah there might be the occasional grenade spamming and bullet spraying, but hey Halo is the passed, if you wanna jump 50ft high spamming rockets and pink spikes, go ahead. childs game.

Check out my youtube video, i blew up my xbox and much more. funny as.

well iw made mw2 i think tht this game is ganna be amazing i read sumwhere tht they had been working on this game since the 3rd was released. Another thing waw is not number 5 mw2 is waw is more like 4.5. i have owned every cod and the ones iw made were just amazing. i thought tht cod 5 was amazing wen i played it and i never played anything else and then i got mw and i play tht like 24/7. mw2 will be the best of the cods. wat i think they should do is get rid of juggernoob, because wen ur sniping and sum1 has tht on /w last stand then it takes 3 shots to kill them so in mw2 they need to have it where u at least put juggernoobs into last stand wen u snipe them. another thing is have the sniper rifles where u can zoom in farther lik the halo3 sniper. and its released in late november or early to mid december of 09

I Think that in call of duty modern warfare 2 there should be Sniper only lobby / game types. :) thanks
