this list is laughable at best some of those games shouldn't even really be up there

but lets be serious now the only game that will come close will be the next big GTA game aka GTA5

1.2 - Hype
Those games will be big. But they're platform exclusive, and have no chance of being 'MW2 big'. Uncharted 2 is probably the game of the year on any platform, but it still hasn't touched the behemoth that was MW2 - for hype, sales or coverage

Yeah, usually I don't cry partisan, but it seems like The Last Guardian was thrown in to convince readers that the writers didn't live inside of a giant Xbox360 24/7.

But with that said, I liked the writeup for Last Guardian much better than the rest of the list! Well done!

"Top Ten Pretenders To Modern Warfare 2's Throne"

lol Is just me or this site already give the GOTY to MW2 only for the great Hype-Storm, what a tool, a hype tool

Uncharted 2: Among Thieves beat your crappy generic shooter called MW1.5 XD

no God of War 3 or Gran Turismo 5? ... this article fails

Edit: and remember kids it's about the Quality of the game not the number of sales

and many will agree with me that GOW3 and Gran Turismo 5 will be better than Modern Warfare 2

They'll be quality games - the article is looking at the 'next big thing' in terms of potential hype, excitement, mass media coverage etc...

"Infinity Ward's shooter, aka 'best thing ever' is finally with us, and for the overwhelming majority, the game would appear to be worth the wait"

I stopped reading right there. As I already knew this was some simple minded player who fell for the COD4 map pack with DLC. Welcome back to 2007 all over again, lol.... best ever, faceplam. What has the gaming world come too these days. The best ever with the shortest SP mode ever? Like just under 5 hours? What is that? A long demo game?

If this is "best ever". I can't wait to see what he says about BFBC2, lol... :D

3.1 - Err...
The above quote is actually being sarcastic about the way the game has been hyped, not about the game itself. NowGamer gave MW2 9.4 on PS3, and 8.8 on 360...

Oh, I'm just being short, lol.... no hate for the game at all. Just not a hype buyer either. I see things and I wonder/ask. :)
