I think so too. Best game I've ever played on Xbox 360.

It's a great game, but it's definitely not revolutionary or photorealistic like some publications suggest. The single player was a bit short and quite linear for my taste.

Damn it, guys, it's too late to have COD4 for Christmas. Y'all makes me to itch my hair to get COD4 for PC.

I think its really good. I have only 3 complaints.

1. On some maps the match turns into a "frag-fest" rather than a battle. That gets both irritating and dull. Its probably because some maps are too small to handle 30-50 players. I wish they would incorporate the Battlefield 2 method.

2. Also the Gunship and airstrikes are overpowered and I think tend to ruin the game.

3. Three weapons bug me. The game is called MODERN WARFARE right?.

A. The AK-47 has not been in use since the 1970s with the Speztnaz or Red Army. Wouldn't it be more accurate to have the AK-74M or AK-101?

B. Get rid of the Stg.44, thats a WWII gun. Its totally out of place.

3. You play 1/2 the game as a SAS member right? Where is the SA80 family or Enfield L85? That is the main rifle in the British Army. Even the obsolete FN-FAL is not included where proceeded the SA80. It's like not modeling the M-16 for the U.S Marines.

I can think of many modern assault rifles i would rather see and would be more accurate than either the AK-47 or Stg.44. The AK-74/101, FAMAS, SA80 family, the G36K, the Steyr AUG.

I think SAS prefer to use MP-5s and AR-15s. Haven't actually seen one with the SA80.
