Hmmm… not to sure about this one. After playing uncharted 2 I think the bar for single player story campaign has been raised so high that I’ll be measuring up every game I play from now on to U2. I can honestly say that U2 has the best single player campaign I have ever played. That being said, I think I’m going to wait for the reviews to come in for MW2′s campaign before making a purchase because I’m just more into the single player experience more than the multi player, which has been what every COD game has been since 4. We all know the online is gonna be great but I need a solid single player experience to make the purchase.

This game will probably be the biggest selling game in history and for many years to come.

@victorino
LMAO, lets forget all about the quality of a game just because of how popular it is!

Forget about single player story, the co op, the graphics, the…shit.. you forgot about anything having to do with the actual game didn’t you?

the main difference between this and other games *and this is why im sure it is getting so many preorders*

for starters, ANYTHING that happens gets a big post on some *usually 3+* news sites which makes people go “wow if this game has so much news, clearly it must be amazing” which gets a few sales

secondly, the ps3 *x360?* havent had a serious shooter in quite a while *atleast a good one that is… not stuff like wolfenstein, or sub shooters like Borderlands* which naturally fuels sales, of the wishy washy shooter fans…

thirdly, it has the new coke affect, CoD MW 1 was highly popular, WAW was not, MW 2 is seen to be the next big one, so its selling better than WAW because of the love for MW 1

forthly, rarly do i see games have in store ad’s 5+ months prior to it coming out… when i bought my ps3 in july i was asked if i wanted to preorder CoD MW 2… YES IN JULY THEY ASKED ME! =\ they also had a poster or 2, ive seen them at several stores as the time grows closer, I have never seen a game with more hype than this…

fifthly, you have the idiot fan boys talking it up, and that gets more and more and more people buying, simply because their friends are getting it, or it has such a high hype they want it…

finally, there’s several special editions… look at the top tier one, it sold out without much of a hassle at all, and then you go down the list… many people will want the special edition *i bought halo 2 harden because it was a special case =\* many others will preorder and do this to make it the full experence, look at demons souls MANY copies sold, and it was #1 on gamefaqs till U2 came out… similar logic, but wider demographic.

any game, that is part of a series, that has little originality required to get another sale, with minor tweaks, and ad’s/constant press on your game for 5+ months, you can do as well as this too =\

I read that MW2 is breaking preordered records by every major game retailer from Amazon-Bestbuy. Hard to believe there are so many COD fans out there. Also read that the bomb dropped on death perk has been removed.

I probably will pass on MW2. It looks great, but it’s just not for me. Besides, I’ll be busy with a slew of other games.
