is graphics. My eyes have been spoiled by KZ2 online.

Pandamobile5411d ago

It actually doesn't look that bad running on console hardware. 600p or not it looks surprisingly good.

Hellsvacancy5411d ago

It doesnt look like its changed at all (graphics) r things not supposed 2 get better - Besides im more interested in the single player campaign anyway (hence y its a rental)

Oh and wots with the gun attachment was that not ripped off from Aliens? - not sure if i liked it - i dont think i did

MW2 looks the same as COD4. Maybe there is a slight tweak in graphics but nothing that jumps out (at least nothing to me). Not that this is a bad thing because what makes MW shine is it's silky smooth (60fps) frame rate, solid hit detection and modern weapons.

Silly Sony fans talk about Killzone 2 because no other shooter touches it graphically and that is what makes fanboys like you go ballistic.

wildcat5411d ago

While MW2 may lack the graphical fidelity of KZ2, it makes up for it in environmental variety and vibrant colors. This and the post-processing effects give each map their own mood and tone, something which I felt Killzone severely lacked. Maybe it was just the art direction, but each map has that same dreary, toxic filter to it. Should have spiced it up with some more color and sunlight.

Only xbox owners think modern warfare is better than killzone? I have a feeling you're not biased what so ever. Owning both, I can tell you that I have put an infinite amount more time into modern warfare's multiplayer than I have with killzone. Maybe it was the fact that it's a fps yet aiming is terrible.

Also, when did graphics trump gameplay? All I hear are comparisons about any game to Killzone 2? Killzone may look good(doesn't look good on a 52 inch from 4 feet away btw), but how about we go back to rating games on their gameplay.

NO FU##ing TANKS!!!
These games are about shooting each other, games with vehicles in multiplayer are ALWAYS bad. Cod 4 and Killzone 2 have proved that the best multipler shooters are the simple ones where all you do is shoot at each other.

This has started to make me already hate the AC 130 gunner thing, but hopefull it's not too unbalanced.

Also NO MARTYDOM NO MARTYDOM NO MARTYDOM NO MARTYDOM NO MARTYDOM NO MARTYDOM NO MARTYDOM NO MARTYDOM NO MARTYDOM NO MARTYDOM .... you get the point.

MerkinMax5411d ago (Edited 5411d ago )

How many people still think that it's pronounced like the name Marty? It's pronounced more along the lines of Mart-er-dumb. Get it straight before you play Modern Warfare 2 because you piss me off when you say it like that.

oldskoolgamer5411d ago

KZ2 looks absolutely stunning on my 60 inch, what kind of TV you running? (DLP,LCD,plasma)

bozobucketeer5410d ago

@1.11 I have a 52 inch LCD 1080p. It looks nice when I sit back and a nice safe distance like you should, but for reason I like to grab a chair and sit up close and it seems to get blocky then. I use an hdmi cable and have 1080p rendering turned on so unless there's another setting I need to use to get better rendering I just have to settle with sitting on the couch.

Cool, I love it when people do these kind of videos. Does anyone know if the G36C will be in MW2???

5yN4MWQU5411d ago

KZ2 looks pretty nice, but personally the Modern Warfare 2 graphics are up to par as far as I am concerned. The G36C appears to be in MW2, a similar looking gun can be seen lying on the ground near one of the final jaunts at the end of the video. Not to mention, the gun he is shooting looks similar to one of the G3x series guns.

The video is easy enough to read, but unfortunately youtube destroyed the HD quality that I produced it in :/ You get the point though! Thanks for commenting.

cmrbe5411d ago (Edited 5411d ago )

it has a long way to go to match particle effects, lighting , gun and character models as well as detail environments in KZ2. Looking at those sharp edge structures/objects in MWF2 reminds me of a PS2 game.

Did they every mention if it will have online splitscreen?

5yN4MWQU5411d ago

I do not believe they have confirmed nor denied this, yet.

MW3 shouldn’t leave Modern Warfare 2’s overlooked playlist behind

Modern Warfare 3 is set to be one of the biggest COD games yet features-wise, but it shouldn't leave out one of the best MW2 game modes in the rear view mirror.

Modern Warfare 2 Adds Pay-to-Win Items With Thermal Scope and Merlin the Dog, Here's How They Work

Some alleged Modern Warfare 2 pay-to-win elements were recently added, see what they are here and how they work.

PunksOnN4G285d ago

The DOG is legit Broken if ur hiding in a room or grass he turns his head even if ur behind a closed door he turns his head and barks letting them know where u at thats PAY TO WIN!!!!!

LucasRuinedChildhood285d ago

I hope all the assholes who buy these get stuck in lobbies with each other. I skipped new COD games for a long time and a short time with MW2 convinced me to go back to on a hiatus.

With the skill-based matchmaking (engagement-based would be more accurate), I imagine this will make the game even more miserable for most players when the matchmaking has decided it's time for a tough lobby.

I played the OG MW2 recently on the Series X and it's disheartening how much more fun it is. I don't even care about the balance issues anymore. lol

PunksOnN4G285d ago

My friends dont play with me anymore i am former pro player and i even streamed on MLG for RX gaming the team i played for... My KD is always high 5-6kd my friends who i went to school with are not good wht so ever so with SBMM kicking in its always putting us in TOP TIER lobbys and they cant hang now they dont even tell me when they getting on LOL

ManMarmalade285d ago

I recently started playing OG MW2 again and I'm having a blast. Feels like I'm in high school again.

fr0sty285d ago (Edited 285d ago )

Welcome to COD under MS. It's all downhill from here, they're going to be looking to make that $68B back as fast as possible, at any expense to the player.

StarkR3ality285d ago

The deal hasn't even closed yet you pleb. CoD has been doing stuff like this since the loot boxes in WWII.

Nice try though pal.

TheColbertinator284d ago

Activision has never needed Microsoft or anybody for that matter to act like greedy bastards

PunksOnN4G284d ago

why did my 2nd comment about SBMM get downvited LOL?? Do we have people who Enjoy trash SBMM tbh make sense it caters to LOW KD players and u will never get better playing with the same trahs everyday LOL

andy85285d ago

Probably gonna see more of this BS once the deal is fully done..Gotta recoup that 70B.

Jin_Sakai285d ago (Edited 285d ago )

Look at Minecraft. The game hasn’t went anywhere since Microsoft bought them. No 4K, no 120fps, no graphics pack, and no Ray Tracing. Just some new biomes, mobs, and more skins as usual.

Same could be said about Rare. Who knows what will happen to Activision once they’re under Microsoft’s roof. We can all take a good guess though.

PunksOnN4G285d ago

TBH they did update it by accident then they pulled the update down on xsx and xss i remeber the XSX version having ray tracing but the S did not. Then after people seen that it was updated it was removed that same day

peppeaccardo285d ago

No way !!! Nobody wouild think they would monetize on items that weak asses will use to get advantage during multiplayer action !!! I would never think they would do that ... I mean is a free to play game after all ! /S
Wait once M$ will put their greasy hands all over Activizion and you will see what awaits the "lucky" ones who will play this slot machine of a game. Sooooo Lame !

jznrpg285d ago

They way it works is you give them money and more money and more money.

anast284d ago

It's a true phenomenon that people haven't figured this out yet.
