No because that game is actually good. Yes its has its unbalanced MP5 but that's bare-able compared to all the bullcrap Mw2 has.

I wouldn't call it flawless but it had very little to complain about. Haters were rare for that game thats for sure.

I was never bothered by that, all it did was cancel out Stopping power and I always used bandoleer with double tap.

No, because it was the best of the series, and MW2 is a downgraded clone. COD4 had problems, but the ones they fixed in MW2 were replaced with new ones.

Not at all. COD4 was great. It wasnt until after the release of COD4 that the series was (in the words of Bobby Kotick) "exploited annually".

MW2 is hated by people who die alot in that game. Same with CoD4. And I still won't understand why people hate it. MW2 is basically CoD4 only faster and with more variety of guns, perks and killstreaks.

Its broken. From net coding to balance its subpar. And its most definitely not played at a faster pace then COD4 since everyones camping for Nukes and Choppergunners. IW didn't want to produce MW2 and it shows. (read the up on the lawsuit) COD4 was near perfect and what really put the series on the map...

The reason why everybody hate MW2 is because they are comparing it to CoD4, a much superior game imo. Flawless as people says.

COD 4 was recieved with much praise because it did something new, while MW2 was pretty much just the first game again and a lot of people hate it because it was way over hyped, when it didn't really deserve any of it.

The only problem with COD4 is the amount of grenades. (3x grenade perk and martyrdom.) Other than that, there's really nothing to complain about.

Well I for one really liked the campaign in MW2 better than in CoD4, but the campaign in CoD4 was still great. As for the online multi-player I really liked CoD4 alot more as it was way more fun to play, but MW2 to me just isn't that great and it tries too hard to be great and that is where it fails.

I think both are overated. It is fun? yes. It is intense? yes. is it worth? sure. BUT I think there are SO many better FPS.... Bioshock or Crysis, for exemple, have a richer universe, a more fascinating story, more original concepts and - most important - more complex gameplay. C'mon...COD series you only run, hide and shoot the WHOLE time. It would be nothing without a blockbuster script and "Michael Bayish" cutscenes sequences.

what he said doesnt make sense too man, cuz he's saying bioshock's universe is an advantage over Modern Warfare, which has a SETTING. Let call of duty haters hate, I still remember topics from 07 saying the same SAME line " COD4 IS INTENSE!!! , THE MP IS GROUNBREAKING", all mw 2 did was make it way cooler, WTFFFFFFFFFFFFF is wrong with mw2 haters!!!!

No.

I loved that game (COD4), played that game for a year online without even losing interest, not like MW2 that I play rarely.

COD4 was simple yet also complicated once you got into the multi because once you became a high rank you had to decide what would be the best perk to go out with and with what gun. MW2 sucked because they changed all of that and made bull crap. The multi on MW2 was practiclly find the cheapest way to kill your oppenent which is that hard to find. (one man army+danger close+noob toob=super noob tastic man)

They added different killstreaks which was fun but also a let down. Good because now you weren't limited to what you could call out. Bad, because now everybody camps and kills the gameplay. I love hardcore team deathmatch on 4 but it sucked on MW2 because everybody was camping.

I am 50/50 on MW2 guns, I liked most guns except for the fact that my favorite gun in the world (AUG) was made into a LMG when it was a assault in the campagin and in most modern uses it is also an assualt weapon. Also all the snipers where two shots and not one. Even on hardcore I would shot somebody square in the chest and they would keep on going. If you didn't get a headshot then your shot was pointless.

They did what alot of companies do and that is change too much from the orignal. "Don't fix what isn't broken" something that many companies fail to do with sequals and MW2 being an example.

No, CoD4 was a great game other than the UFO hack. That is actually patched now so need to worry.

No, I didn't think CoD4 was as great as everyone says though. I'd say MW2 is better (not including MP). I don't know why everyone hates on MW2.
