At the beginning of Last Gen, the exact same complaints were being raised. Does anyone remember Perfect Dark Zero? It wasn't "next gen" enough. Give it a year. PS4 and XB1 will have their Modern Warfare moment. I imagine DICE's Star Wars effort will turn some heads.
I like the game on my 360. It's fun, fast, fluid, and a nice expansion of the COD model of multiplayer, which I've enjoyed. The maps are good, but I find my self running end-to-end, plowing through mindless minions, to get to a pilot or a titan to engage. That sort of takes away from the competitiveness of what is, purely, a competitive game. And where are the bells and whistles? Vehicles besides titans? Destructability?
Don't get me wrong, I like the game. But a 9? I mean, I respect your review. I just don't see it...
