Dont worry, Im not going to try and convince the world that its dreadful, because its not, its simply stunning.

I just wanted to voice a minor gripe that I have, in that we hear all the time about how Infinity Ward are completely peerless in terms of their level design. And I agree.

So, given their talent for producing remarkable levels, why have they chosen to recreate a MAP that was in Call of Duty 2. Cant remember the name, but the one with the dead cows on, and 2 sides around a bunker with trenches.

This was one of my favourite levels in COD2, and I would have loved it as a free download or something, but not sure its what I wanted to see straight out of the box!

I have so far only seen 4 or 5 of the multiplayer maps but I hope the rest are new ones!

Bloody Good game though, say bye bye to my life for at least the next six months!

Wasn't the CoD2 map asked for by the infinity ward community to be included in this release? They asked for it and infinity ward delivered it. I'm not too fussed, I never played CoD2 online so I've never seen this map but I assume it's a really good one.

Like I said, im not upset that they have done it, but offer it as free DLC, rather than taking up valuable disk space that could have housed a new map!

Blu-Rays are mahoosive, they could probably fit 20 more maps on the disc and still loads of room left :D

From what I've seen, the vast majority are new maps. I certainly haven't seen any old ones making an appearance watching on JTV. I seem to remember IW saying that they were going to include the more popular maps from MW1? Did that materialise?

"I-think-Chinatown-in-COD4-was-a-reskin-of-a-COD2-map"

Chinatown was indeed a reskin of Carentan. A lesson in how to make a good map dire.

I havent seen any MW1 maps as of yet, but have only played 4 or 5. Im sure I read that there could be a few of the MW1 missions in the spec ops mode, but not sure about multiplayer yet.

LoL Davies I knew it would be you Mr Negative ;) LOL

I havent actually played the MP much, cause I thought stats were getting re set!

I do have to say though (poss spoiler) after playing 2 hours of the SP, im not blown away a touch by the numbers which I didnt expect from IF and MW2, the infamous airport mission seemed rather strange, I know ur undercover but your forced to shoot people??? surely there would have been a choice to wound people, gas them any thing, that made you look like you where fitting in to terrorist plan ect? i msure this is nit picking... and there is plenty of chance for it to get more varied and generally awesome!

i'm seriously meh about MW2. Played it for a couple of hours and stuck drakes back in. Just prefer it in every way. Will go back to MW2 but not until i'm finished with drakes.

i know one is a 3rd person adventure nd the other first person shooter, but i just couldn't get into it, constantly comparing it to drakes and feeling it fell well short.

The soundtrack is good.
