I've seen a couple trailers of this new game. Is it just me, or does it look like shit?

The new Medal of Honor game looks ALOT better than this.

It does look like shit. Treyarch=shit. Only thing that saved WaW from being a complete shitter was Nazi zombies.

It probably wont be as good as MW2, but Medal of Honor is not getting very good reviews

The campaign is pretty bad...Online play in my opinion blows away duties which is what makes it a badass game

Medal of honor blows. WAW wasnt that bad of a game,i actually really liked it. Treyarch actually gives a shit about its community unlike IW. I think BO is gonna be a good game and probably better than MW2.The only way BO will fail IMO is if they try fixing TOO much shit people complain about in MW2.

Agree. MoH multi player is better than the MW2 arcade game. It just needs more maps. I didn't even try the single player. I started it and the intro graphics were so bad I laughed and turned it off.

MW2 is good. I usually hate 1st person shooters, but I love playing MW2 Online and play almost daily.

I like it too, but love that in MoH the goal is to win as a team, not just see what your KDR is. And they took out all the bullshit perks. You can see who is actually good and plays the objectives.

Oh, and dedicated servers.

I also think Black Ops seems to look like MW2 with different maps and weapons. The gameplay seems the same. Run around like a chicken with your head cut off and shoot at anything that moves.

Hmmm.... I think Black Ops looks way better than MW2 based on the vids I've watched online...

Kill streaks require actual kills to keep earning more kill streaks (kills from a killstreak don't count anymore). So now you have to go out and earn your 7 or 11 kill streak, rather than getting to 3-4 kills, hiding in a barn and calling in your predator missile, calling in your chopper gunner (still hiding in barn), calling your next streak (still hiding in a barn). This is what ruined MW2 for me....Killstreaks being too powerful and the 'rich get richer' structure created a bunch of campers just fishing for killstreaks. I'm good at the COD series (Halo not so much), so I was on the receiving end of a lot of killstreaks, but it just wasn't fun.

Gun game looks awesome

One in the Chamber mode looks awesome

Player customization looks great.

Someone I work with said the exact same thing, can you explain this? I like MW2, but like you said it feels like a bunch of people running around shooting everybody where as MW1 there was at least a bit of strategy used by people.

IW would care about the community if they weren't too busy not getting paid by Activision and fending off lawsuits by Activision. Activision is their parent company by the way.

one problem with your post, death streaks are complete bullshit, why reward people for dying?

Agree, death streaks are so ghey. I especially hate whatever the health one was called...Complete BS to be unloading on someone, yet they kill you since they had their death strike on. ( I forget the names, haven't played MW2 for like 6 months).

Treyarch may = shit, but MW2 was shit in itself.

I'm hopefuly for Black ops to be good, we'll see though.
