Before I say anything, let me get one thing straight:
I FUCKING LOVE MODERN WARFARE!
Seriously, I do! I love it from its fantastic start to its balls-crunching, shitty cliffhanger ending. But who cares, right? Infinity Ward actually did a pretty decent job in porting a World War 2 shooter into the present (or future perhaps, I don't fucking know when Modern Warfare's events take place. Although if it WAS the future, I think that the developers would find a way to incorporate Robocop into the cast).
Anyway, what really sucked me into the labyrinthian cleavage of Modern Warfare's doughy breasts was its multiplayer mode. After a few multiplayer matches with some dudes, i discovered that fragging people was particularly easy in Modern Warfare as compared to its predecessor, Call of Duty 2. Oh wait, did you say something? Hmm? Call of Duty 3???
SHUT THE FUCK UP!
THAT SHIT DOESN'T EXIST!
Pour moi, MW2 was a gleaming, glistening gem, which I had waited for almost 2 years..almost 2 incredibly long, stupid years. I won't say much about the story, except that it should be made into a movie at some point (preferably with Jerry Bruckheimer producing). I especially like the mission entitled 'No Russian', in which your objective is to escort some terrorist who just hit puberty as he brutally massacres Russian civilians at an airport. Not only did I realize that I found killing unarmed civilians cathartic and amusing (in the fucked-up-Zodiac-Killer sort of way), it also led me to conclude that I might be a serial murderer in the making.
Considering all the good things I've said about MW2, one thing really bites my balls about it - it fucking runs on Steam. AND I FUCKING HATE STEAM! No one in their right mind who lives where I do would pay 60 bucks to play this game. I'm serious, I fucking wouldn't! I can think of a million better ways to spend 60 US dollars on - like perhaps buying 150 Cornettos.
