You've seen the official trailer, you've been to the official website. Now it's time to check out the first Hi-Res screens of the one who sent shivers up and down our spine with all the bombarded visuals this past Memorial Day Weekend, the one, the only: Modern Warfare 2 (Xbox 360, PS3, and PC).

And we're more than glad to make way for this first batch of screenshots, so we'll take the sidelines for now and just let the pictures do the talking.

Question

Anyone know who the enemies in black with the riot shields are? How would Russian Ultranationalists be able to get---- Nevermind. There are far greater questions at hand, such as why are SAS agents having intermission joyrides with a group of terrorists on snowmobiles. I'm buying the game, and will then post my great unbiased review on gamespot.

Lol

Even you can't be dumb enough to think you know who and what everything is based on a trailer. You don't know who's SAS, who're the Russians, where what screen or image takes place or even whether the riot shielders are enemies or allies. You should just do what you said and post your unbiased review on gamespot where nobody will read it. Also when you review the game you're reviewing whats in front of you. Its annoying to see so called reviewers out there who review...lets say a Tekken game and the entire time they mention "Its nothing like Street Fighter its so lame" or something along those lines. Needlessly comparing two different fields. If you're gonna review it, do it as a Call of Duty. People already know what to expect from CoD and saying "It requires no skill like these games" is something everyone knows and is pointless to tack into a review. (Halo 3 requires an ass load of more skill than CoD...but I have more fun playing CoD)

Err

Seems someone needs to point out the obvious here, these screens are not the first of anything, they're just screen dumps of the latest trailer. What's new about that? Answer: Nothing.

Lol..

Seems I should point out what you didn't read and mention everyone already knows the screens are from the video, Qj acknowledged that, they're just high res screen shots of the video, and nobody said they were new at all.... :(

Just thought I'd add that you put 'Moder' instead of 'Modern' :)

The guys with riot shields are who you play as in the new coop mode, Special Forces, that screen has nothing to do with single player

That's funny kid, because every review I've ever posted has been read many times by random people I don't even know since 2006. You've never seen my reviews. Sure, I've reviewed games I don't like at all, but I never compare them to any other game nor do I give my personal opinion on them. You thought you would be able to guess what my reviews are like by these lulz-worthy comments you see here, but that was a commoner mistake. I don't care at all what *you* or anyone expects from the game, it's gonna be my review. Perhaps you should have looked up the word "unbiased" and what it means, but I know you're not dumb enough to not know what that means. I'm not sure *how* you think Halo 3 takes more skill than CoD, but hats off to you. Go play CoD 2 on PC and come back. Halo 1 takes more skill than Halo 2/3 combined, but that was me playing the PC version. It's also very obvious for me to know who the russians and SAS are when I've seen the actual magazine which has interviews with IW, and they tell you who is who in the screens. The game's a direct sequel of the first, some guy named Makarov is the new Russian badass, and Soap from the first game will be your squad leader. You're still with the SAS, and you're still killing russians left and right. They're friggin' original.

I like the laser's....

Imagine doing the ship mission from COD4 using lasers *drool*. If Infinity Ward made the lasers availible in COD6 multiplayer and so as single player. But I have doubts as in COD4 campaign we got a full proper camo suit with a crazy Barrett .50 Cal. I loved playing the mission just for the suit and the great guns with the addons which some where not availible in multiplayer. Just speculating, I think this game might have Russian Ultranationalists hijacking airplanes in a airport based in America? And the source of the enemies and evil is coming from Brazil? Is the game going at the treasured 1080p resolution? By the way about the riot shield's if they were made for use in multiplayer there's got to be a limit to them. Not like Counter-strike, where people camped behind the invincible fortress of a shield. Anyways these were just thoughts that just crept up as i was reading. P.S Reviews are suppose to be unbiased. The reviewer might know about the past games or might know not at all and might just read up on them but most of the time is the first option. Reviews in the main focus are suppose to be unbaised with a personal opnion at the end or after factual comments. The tricky thing is that with the Call Of Duty series the game developer changes on alternate releases so we can't compare COD4 and COD5. As they are two different developers going at their own ideas. Damn that was one big comment, didn't expect it to get so long. I have so much things rattling up there. Anyways, Later.

It's already been confirmed that Soap from 4 will be your squad leader of some SAS branch that was created specifically to go after Makarov, the new Russian Ultranationalist leader. Looks like the US guys will be taking care of business in Rio. No way the game will be in 1080p native, because even CoD5 ran at 600p, just like CoD4. Also, in CS: Condition Zero (the one that actually has the Riot Shield) just because you get behind a shield means nothing. You can only use a pistol when using a shield, and you have to partially expose yourself to shoot. Also, your accuracy drops like 50% just for having the shield. I also think it's possible to get headshotted through the slit. Reviews aren't supposed to be biased because usually, consumers go after the professional reviews, flocking to IGN and Gamespot before anyone else. If they read a review that just says "I think this game sucks because I just don't like it....etc." and make random baseless judgments about it, then the consumer most likely won't have a good reaction.
