Comparing a $60 game to a show on cable is ridiculous. How many millions more own a TV than a console. And how many teenage girls are actually paying their cable bill. To them it is free entertainment.

Lol wut?

Twilight started as a book series and is currently being made into a series of movies. I don't know where you got the cable show from.

If you don't like that comparison then how about this one: McDonald's sells more food than any other restaurant in the world. Does that make McDonald's food the best food in the world?

MW2 is like a McDonald's meal. Quick, easy, moderately satisfying, but ultimately forgettable.

[citation][nom]Ragnar-Kon[/nom]It appears as though the masses disagree with you. Far Cry 2 sold 1 million copies in its first 3 weeks. Modern Warfare 2 sold 4.7 million copies its first DAY.Half Life 2 has sold about 8.6 million copies to date, again, only twice as much as Modern Warfare 2 sold in its first day.I personally hated Far Cry 2, but Half Life 2 was definitely one of the better games I've played. Modern Warfare 2, however, it just in another class of it own. I will say as a PC player that I was and still am disappointed by the lack of dedicated servers. But I won't take that one downfall and label the entire game as "horrible."[/citation]

The masses also think that lady gaga and britney spears are excellent musicians...

The fact that it sold so many the very first day seems to support the argument that marketing hype and/or previous COD titles were a major factor in sales numbers. It doesn't mean the game wasn't great, it's just that you can't use this argument to prove your point.

[citation][nom]lasaldude[/nom]Modern Warfare 2 is an fun game for a bit, but no way is it a good or great game. Half-life 2 and Far Cry 2 are light years a head of that piece of shit that came out years after those two games. I thought you're supposed to learn from previous generations?[/citation]

realy farcry 2 whot is ewen remotly good about it? after my 195time i got stopped by the controle points and for no reason faster cars then the same as mine and done the same quest 80 times i rated it as the worst game id ewer seen. its a mmorpg grind game whit no lvl system and no massive online. but the engi is okey.

The comments about the new company and being under EA publishing is good news? Time will tell...Lot of lead guys from IW went to Respawn(hope that bad choices they made toward pc weren't from them).
EA(Evil A$$#*LE$)Have a horrible track record of trying to have too much control over games and pretty much ruining the outcome of the product.

Yeah the mass have no real idea what they want though. According to them, it's better to play games on the Xbox and PlayStation compared to PC's.
