No Disappointment Here

You know, I was one of those ppl that thought there was no way Treyarch would be able to match, much less out-do, Modern Warfare. Now, I’m not saying that this game is “better”. However, it is a very enjoyable change of pace.
You can definitely see an improvement in the graphics, especially in the colors. This game doesn’t seem to be de-saturated and, some of the levels have really jumped out at me. The gore factor has definitely been jacked up with severed limbs and disembowelment. There is more detail in the environments and the character models. The multi-player seems to be a little more challenging, with some cool new additions such as vehicles, (found the controls to be sluggish but still fun blowing stuff up) wide variety of new weapons and, who doesn’t enjoy unleashing a pack of German Sheppard’s on their opponents with a seven kill streak.
I can certainly tell that Treyarch wasn’t going to settle for being one upped by Infinity Ward. I think it is a great idea how they are taking turns releasing the titles and, I think that we the gamers will benefit from it richly with two studios competing to try to make a better game than the last one released by the other studio. All and all I have to give this game a 9 out of 10. I won’t say its better than Modern Warfare but it is just as fun. I’m definitely keeping mine as a welcome addition to my gaming library. Weezle41 if you want to find me for a game.
