Wikipedia description:
Modern Warfare 2 (packaged as Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2) is an upcoming first-person shooter video game developed by Infinity Ward and published by Activision for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360. Officially announced on February 11, 2009, the game is due for worldwide release on November 10, 2009. It is the sixth installment of the Call of Duty series, and the direct sequel to Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, continuing along the same storyline.

Modern Warfare 2 will be released in conjunction with two other Call of Duty games: Call of Duty: Modern Warfare: Mobilized for the Nintendo DS, and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, a port of Call of Duty 4 adapted by Treyarch for the Wii console. In addition, a comic book series based on one of the game's characters will also be produced, entitled Modern Warfare 2: Ghost. The developer has stated that the game's proprietary IW 4.0 game engine is an improvement over the engine used in its previous game.

Eh, wikipedia doesn't really do this any justice. So, new thread. Info incoming.

AWESOME NEW TRAILER

Info about revealed perks, weapons, etc.

NO BETA NO DEMO

Is time a gift or punishment?

    The Wii version of CoD4 is going to be called Modern Warfare Reflex. Wiki fails.

    I note despite several places stating the contrary, it's still retaining CoD : Modern Warfare 2 as it's title, rather than dropping the CoD part.

    Ah, hell. I just saw Call Of Duty on the game box and the limited edition 360 in the latest video on Live. I'll hide in shame now.

    I'm sure there's going to be the usual claims to it, but I'll reserve judgment until I play it. I suspect it'll still have spawn fuckery in some capacity.

    Why?

    COD has always been a great single player experience, and with the refinments and upgrades they're bringing to MW2 (larger levels, smarter AI, civilians you can shoot in the face) why would you skip it?

    I personally feel that the single player action rivals any CG cutscene from any game to date. It's just pure intensity!

    I mean in theory and if history proves anything, the single player part can be blown off in 6 hours, maybe less.

    I just enjoyed the MW multi so much more than the singleplayer, that any chance I get to play MW2 I'll have a hard time justifying putting that time into singleplayer.

    Eventually, sure.

    At least with squad spawn and those neat new tactical insertion dohickies spawning shouldn't be *as* frustrating assuming you're playing with a decent party.

    I am playing through COD4 on the PC for the first time right now. I played a bit of it on the 360 but I hate the feeling of playing an intense shooter with a controller, so it wasn't as good as it could have been.

    I am enjoying it immensely and now I am pretty eager for MW2. The intensity and immersion of the single player game is pretty fantastic, even without considering multi.

    I loved CoD4:MW and CoD:WaW's single player campaigns.. this will only be better, I reckon.

    In other words.. you'll be missing out if you go right to multiplayer.

    I'm the DE.50's biggest fan on this game.
    DE.50 + Stopping power + Bandolier + Last stand = very, very annoyed opponents.

    Also, and I found this really weird.
    Last night while I was playing, somtimes after going into last stand and dying I'd get a grenade kill as if I had Martydom on. It happened 5 or 6 times. At first i thought it was a randomly tossed nade, but after the third time when I knew I had no grenades left it was happening. It was really strange.

    I definitely favor MP over SP for this game, but I'm sure I'll go through it at some point.

    I'm not sure if i want this for PC or 360.

    I like shooters on the computer better, but i seem to have an edge over others with a controller.

    My record for a random multiplayer game i joined on 360 was 52-2 (and i only died the first time because i ran out of ammo with primary and sidearm, and 3 pickup rifles I got down to charge stabbing people)

    Did CoD4 have any good mods or player maps on PC?
