I tell you what, the boys over at Infinity Ward sure know how to press my buttons. I’m actually considering playing the single player right out of the box instead of jumping onto Xbox live with my friends.

I can say this much, I haven’t even watched the whole video yet. No…. not because it’s not worth watching, because it’s so good I wanted to help spread it as fast as I can so I paused in the middle to write this post.

It’s a CTF match, and it looks fucking gorgeous. Seriously, it does.

UPDATE: Having now watched the video in it’s entirety I’ll pass on a few words of wisdom for the casual viewer:

Make sure you watch until the very end, you’ll see something quite pleasing if you’ve ever played the first Modern Warfare (Hint: Host migration)

Pay close attention to the kill streak rewards that pop up….DREAMY!

And finally, please preorder this game. I’ll need people to play with on launch day. A day I’ll be taking off of work as to get as much time in as possible before I’ve got to go back to “normal daily life”

I apologize to the two of you who check this page regularly for posting this video so late. Robert Bowling uploaded a multiplayer video from the upcoming Infinity Ward release Modern Warfare 2 the other day. Feast…

A few things I notice:

• 15 streak rewards!!!?!?! I can’t wait to find out what they are.
• Heartbeat detector attachment for your weapon. How will this effect game modes like Search and Destroy?
• Flying an AC-130 during live multiplayer action. I don’t need to tell you how that makes me feel
• Sticking semtex (fancy new c4? sticky grenade?) to people’s faces is going to replace teabagging as the most demeaning act one gamer can do to another.

I’ve just stumbled onto a great source for in depth Modern Warfare 2 information. MW2Blog.com goes DEEP and HARD to give addicts of the series all the nerdiest information you couldn’t find yourself (assuming you’ve got a job and a life).

My personal favorite is this picture of the pause screen they’ve posted:

Any site that takes the time to post an upcoming games pause screen is a friend of mine! Now all us awaiting know where to find the first shots of the options menu when we get closer to release.

The biggest question I’ve got after watching this video…..Why in the fuck is this not already on shelves??

You have one Robert. You said it was the first off the line, that implies there are more.
SHIP THEM ALREADY! I’m ready to prestige!!!!!!
