For the people who aren't sure: Yes, this IS by Infinity Ward. Infinity Ward and Treyarch trade off each year, so it is Infinity Ward's turn. Besides which, Activision confirmed that IW is making "Call of Duty 6 (Working title; seems to be named "Modern Warfare 2" now)" a while back.
Anyone hoping that it isn't a direct sequel or anything? And that we have some different enemies? I don't really want to fight Russians and Arabs again; they are in every other modern warfare game already too...Gives us a new, fictional modern war in a new place. Hell, let us take a whack at the Chinese or something...
...
Actually, that would make Modern Warfare 2 the second modern shooter in 2009 to have us fight the Chinese. Operation Flashpoint 2 is the US vs China.
Also...Is anyone else irked that we don't see enough countries as the "good guys" that aren't the US or UK? Who wants Modern Warfare 2 to be REALLY edgy, risky, and controversial and not include the US or UK? Why can't we play as, say, Israel or Germany or something? Am I the only one who is getting bored with the same two or three "good guy" countries saving the day?
