Honestly the game is my roommates favorite. Personally I think that it is a glitched piece of trash. With every glitch found and exploited...not to mention akimbo 1887 shotguns, that is dual for those that don't know, that shoot better for any distance than a sniper rifle and load faster than it's singled gun counterpart...I hate the game so much. Plus the multiplayer level design is so poor. It really only appeals to those that can't get past it's redesigned perks and ranking system...plus slightly better polished graphics ran on the same engine as CoD 4. Honestly I have much more fun player the Battlefield: Bad Company 2 beta.

Modern Warfare 2 has been banned in Russia due to outrage at the airport level, and the entire storyling being Russia vs USA.

Russian gamers are apparently very unhappy with the game's content. One Web site, GotPS3, railed against Infinity Ward for catering to an American audience and ignoring the sensitivities of other cultures. The site believes that Infinity Ward portrays the Russians as terrorists.

I got CoD4:MW2 as a birthday present. I wasn't planning on getting it, due to me losing a lot of respect for IW form the lack of dedicated servers, mods, console, et cetera.
Let the irony flow.
