Looking at the list, it doesn't look too bad. Considering the second part of the story or whatever it is in MW2 isn't that great, but i do believe that Activision pushed them to release it. It does after all from what I've seen with triple A titles, takes quite a deal of time to make a great game. 2 to 3 years or as long as it takes, I'm sure if given the right amount of time MW2 would of been great. But as many have said the MW3 or whatever it is to be called will be a new format for the COD series. Heading into a new direction, possibly new story, etc. Will new talent be able to fill this gap, we don't know yet since a game hasn't been released or announced. Till then, all the FPS fans like myself will just have to buckle up and wait it out, will it crash and burn out or will swerve and hit 6th gear and win us all over again. Time will tell. I've seen great games get turned into nothing but smithereens.
