Modern Warfare: Reflex footage inspires passionate comment

"now all you 360 lovers can suck it!!!!! this game looks great." – natevberg, YouTube commenter

No insight from us relating to the recently leaked footage of the training mission from Modern Warfare: Reflex (and, prior to that, the original Modern Warfare) is required. Mr. natevberg seems to sum up the raw emotion of the video beautifully. To see the modern waggle controls in action, check out the video after the jump.

lol

Btw, this wasn't a first type of comment, it's just that natevberg's comment is really funny (in a stupid way). Yeah, like 360 owners (and/or PS3 and/or Pc owners for the matter) would ever want that cr ap with all the amazing games they already have and the great games that are in the pipeline for them (like MW2).

Wow, that must've been one of those Japanese Square Watermelons!

Its amazing that you watched the 8 minute video in 2 and then came up with the well crafted analysis.

I for one and surprised by how good it looks. If i did not have it for the 360 and PC, and MW2 wasnt coming out in a few days, I would get it. With a solid online component, this could be the shooter that Wii owners should get.

Your argument is invalid. You stated MW2='great game'.

Modern Warfare 2 =/= great game.

MWF2 iSn't out yet you stupid fuck. What the hell is with people giving these ultimate reviews on games they've never played before they even come out? YOUVE NEVER PLAYED IT. YOU DONT KNOW IF IT IS GOOD OR "=/= GOOD."

"lol"

Exactly!

Dear Mr. Natevberg,

If this is your idea of a game looking "great," I've got a Sega Genesis for sale. Hardly used.

I mean, honestly, it doesn't look like crap. But nothing worth jumping on youtube and posting comments with 4 exclamation points about. It looks about as bad as expected from the screenshots. Square people shooting guns. I guess if there was a Lego Modern Warfare, this would be what it looked like.

Either way, natevberg seems pretty excited to play it, and that's all that really matters. Enjoy that.

I think it looks potentially fun enough and different from the other console and pc versions. Just because it doesn't look as good doesn't mean it isn't worth playing, powers.

Lego Modern Warfare would (Lego Rock Band debacle ignored for the moment) probably have been a whole lot of fun. I mean, if they got the gameplay down right it doesn't matter what the graphics look like. To me, headshots on lego characters would be really funny, and fit right in with more mainstream gamers as well.

Acutally, Lego MWF (LMWF?) WOULD be way fun. They should stop doing Lego movie franchise games and start doing Lego game franchise games. And Lego Rock Band doesn't count. Let's start the petition for LMWF2!!

gah, that watermelon is ugly! Why are they even trying this?

Actually, I guess a Lego Modern Warfare WOULD be pretty sweet. To see little Lego people blow up when you grenade them. Little plastic arms, legs, and torsos littered across the ground. I'd play that.

And don't dis Lego Rock Band. It's actually pretty good. I bought it for my daughter, and ended up playing it for a couple hours after I put her to bed.

Cock ov doodie 4: modern gheyfuckstupid reflex

Kinda sucks that natevberg finally crawled out of his rock that he lives in and doesn't know about what happens on Tuesday

All I can say is Mr.Natevberg is about to get a very full inbox.

Doubt it, I made a comment last week on a "MW2 sucks" video saying "Fuck you, MW2 is epic." and I got raped up the butt with messages.

As a Wii owner, I can safely say I'm tempted to buy this now. :)

Are we watching the same video because from 6:07 to the end was the worst aiming I've seen in my life and this guy looks to be a test dev...

I expected worse, honestly.

I couldn't find the Youtube button that lets me watch in HD, so I gave up and watched a video of the Xbox360 version.

i c wat u did thar

Nice. n _ n

I could watch the control configuration all day. Riveting.

Fuck, why the hell didnt they name this Modern Waggle? That is so much better than Reflex

Call of Doody: Last-Gen Warfare

Personally I think they should have placed the word 'Gag' in between 'Duty' and 'Reflex'

I wonder it there is dedicated servers...

Jokesss

Wow the improvements from the old screenshot are pretty crazy.
I think this looks on par with the conduit. As far as the guy playing.....spray and pray much?

WOW.

:26 -:47 A loading screen

:48 - :57 ANOTHER LOADING SCREEN.

What is this??? I don't even.......

Good question.

Aaaah hahahahahaha! (+)

Is it me, or this video show exactly the same tutorial mission of MW1...

Um... it's the same game.

do you mean it's a complete port of the first one?

I was confused at first too. I thought it was a Wii ver of MWF2.

You're kidding right?

The only difference is the Wiimote.

The Wiimote isn't the ONLY difference. *cough* *cough*

Hey Joystiq, you forgot the iPhone tag.

If this was an iPhone game the guy would have struggled to hit the first 2 targets, then given up and exited the game followed by going back to his fart apps.

What is this? A 2 year old game everyone has already played out being suddenly ported to the Wii? That's retarded, they have a new one coming out this month why not port that instead? Man, lately, I'm glad I don't have a Wii.

Infinity Ward can't be bothered with Wii. Treyarch had to do the port. They probably would have done it last year, but they were simul-porting World at War instead.

Given W@Wii sales were pretty good, maybe it won't take so long to port MW2.

natevberg I salute you.

Listen Wii fans; you guys have a lot of ammo in defense of your system. You want to argue that it's "all about gameplay?" Fine. You want to tell us that Nintendo still holds true to classic gaming? Awesome. But we have you on the graphics area. No matter how good it looks on the Wii, it can never get passed the "ok" stage in comparison to the other consoles. We've got you. Let it go.

Honestly, the gameplay isn't really ever "better" either. It's different, sure, but... better?

I wouldn't even really call the gameplay different (or at least not better), just the controls, and the PC is still #1 for FPS games.

Yeah, I've still yet to play a game on the Wii (except Wii Sports and maybe Boom Blox) where I wouldn't rather have had dual analogs instead. It's funny that most of the best games on there have pretty much eschewed the motion controls (Galaxy, Smash Bros.) altogether.

Muramusa says hi

"Yeah, I've still yet to play a game on the Wii (except Wii Sports and maybe Boom Blox) where I wouldn't rather have had dual analogs instead. It's funny that most of the best games on there have pretty much eschewed the motion controls (Galaxy, Smash Bros.) altogether."

Regardless of your stance on motion controls vs. no motion controls, the era of the dual analog stick was the start of the downfall of the industry, saved partially by Wii's all approach method in 2006.

Dual analog set ups have push more ppl away from gaming than any one other factor in the industry in my experience. It's created a really strong uber core base following, and little else around and outside of it. Thankfully next gen that will be changing greatly with all 3 consoles.

Muramasa was gorgeous, but are still simplistic. Are you trying to compare Muramasa's stylized art work to a game like Uncharted 2? Totally different categories here. Also, Muramasa doesn't look that much better than Odin's Sphere on the PS2. I'm sorry, did you have a point?

Other than fans of The Conduit, I never heard much people praising the Wii's graphics.

Sure, people claimed that Super Mario Galaxy and were the best in graphics, but it was never said as a defense of graphics: It was an attack on bad graphics on the Wii.

However, saying "it can never get passed the 'ok' stage" is a bit much. I'm sure the Wii can hit the 'ok' stages if they tried hard enough (it would have limitations, obviously). ...I would say "the Wii cannot hit the good-great stages of other consoles", that I would more likely agree with.
