Agree with napo 100% and criticisms in the OP?.
I played the originals (1 & 2) and really enjoyed them. I liked WWII shooters when I was younger and they were the best at they time.
Didn't play any until I bought MW2 (which I've heard is the best of the most recent ones), and I got bored pretty quickly. Naturally it could just be me and that I don't enjoy playing this genre (love halo as an FPS though maybe the comparison is unfair), but it is effectively the exactly same game repackaged in new GFX and a new (mostly Irrelevant) story line. I had no connection with the single player, and I didn't get on with the MP experience mainly I guess because I'm used to other FPS'.
How many COD games are there now? There's no variation in any of them, but then again, I guess people don't like things that are different in a franchise they enjoy playing.
