Ahh ok. I didn't realize there was a huge leak. That's pretty hilarious though. Wonder if it was a disgruntled IW person who stayed behind intentionally to leak everything.

This plot sounds so absurd.
Still didn't top what i thought they would end up doing though.
Kind of weird that the MW3 teaser is lacking the Infinity Ward logo...the game is still technically being developed by IW (in name only), right?
Most of my work friends are pretty enthusiastic about Call of Duty, and follow development just enough to know that IW makes the "really awesome" CODs. They don't know about the firing shenanigans though.
...just thought it was a weird omission from the teaser.
It's probably going to be an explosionfest with a dead SAS trooper voiced by Craig Fairbrass with cool setpieces that make your brain hurt if you think about it for longer than a few seconds.
Just turn your brain off.
EDIT: Also a stolen nuke for good measure. We're two for two on that one so far.

MW5 will reveal that, in the wake of the all consuming war with Russia, Canada is the only world power left. They will take this opportunity to conquer the world.
You play as a plucky Delta Force commando. Can you stop the Canadian menace?
No. The last scene is of your guy being punched so hard he explodes into a mountain of coins. The Maple Leaf is hoisted over DC as "Oh Canada" plays.
Canada isn't safe. It's capital city is the setting for one of the main missions of the game. You have to defuse a bomb right in the centre of London, I wouldn't call that 'safe'.

Damn the story for Modern Warfare just gets dumber and dumber.
Where the hell does Makorov get the money for all these soldiers? How on Earth did the Russians manage to fuel and equip an army capable of launching an attack on the east coast of America? And now they've managed to launch mainland attacks on the entire world? Seriously?

This is why I liked Medal of Honor.
The story isn't pants on head retarded.

Obviously, the Russians got the bulk of the tech from the X-Com project back in '99, and now they're using it.
The bit that amuses me is that, in MW2?
The Russians were totally justified. The US perpetrated terrorist actions against Russian civilians for... some bugfuck stupid reason. That's exactly the sort of thing that justifies acts of war in the press.
Shepard betrays you and you find out he orchestrated everything so he can show how evil an Ultra-nationalist Russia is. Who ever thought that was good plot idea needed a slap.
anyway, better quality at that link. I think the games looks awesome, I'm going to replay Modern warfare 1 and 2 in celebration.
I'm finishing up my run of MW1. I sequence broke "All In" somehow and made it to the end while Price and crew were shooting people staring at me in the other direction.
Edit: All Ghillied Up is by far my favorite set piece/mission in any game.
I'm really not feeling this "premium multiplayer content" shit. I flatly refuse to pay any additional fees for my console games (I already pay for access to Live, after all), but as long as the people who do pay don't get any tangible advantages over me, I suppose it's not the end of the world. Still, I just ... am not feeling that shit.
I'm excited about the game -definitely aboard the Hype Bus- but it really feels like Activision's doing everything in their power to get me to walk away from the series at this point.
I don't know why, but I just didn't get excited watching the trailer. Maybe I'm getting tired of seeing these pumped out every year. Either my interest is waning, or longevity in games is declining (probably the former). I'll keep an eye on this for now.

Really? Because what I took from it was
Shepard was attempting to guarantee a state of war with an exceptionally hostile Ultra-nationalist Russia in order to draft/bring in more soldiers under his command to stroke his ego by being in control of the largest army since whenever. Basically, a world in which he would always be relevant to the interests of the nation and become indispensible - since he'd suffered such a massive failure back in MW1 which he took personally, it seems. But since he took a knife personally too... heh.
It makes sense, but only as a Hollywood summer action movie. Emotive, not coherent.

Sounds like an IW CoD : MW plot then.

Starting to get silly now, looking forward to P3opl3's R3public of China or perhaps a mission in the S3ch3ll3s.

Can't wait for the M3xico reveal!
And South Kor3a.
I guess they're going to throw in Middl3 3ast. Not many 3's can get in there.
Until MW4.
