ripped from the wikipedia entry for MW3:
Plot
The game will immediately follow the events of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, where Russia continues its invasion of the United States of America, and has also expanded its offensive to European countries England, France and Germany.[7]
Yeah, its Russia invading Europe. Not Just any Europe, WESTERN EUROPE, what, did they just push eastern Europe to the side as they steamrolled to Paris with a giant brush?
Guys this game is actually also targeting an international audience as well as an American one (otherwise why bother having German, British or French campaigns?) But this is silly, unless they write the story of Russia vrs Absolutely everyone everywhere ever really well, and I mean REALLY well, the story wont be that interesting. I have alot of faith in the developer's of the game, but its going to take alot to make me think that Russia in this day and age is that land-hungry. And like I said before, I DONT MIND Russia being A bad guy, I am just sick of them being THE bad guy, and demand more from the industry.
I want the war simulator industry to challenge me, it is better for the industry to be more controversial in who they pick to be the bad guys then to be controversial in the vein of say, killing unarmed civilians in an airport. Pick someone other then White Northern Europeans as a bad guy, I do not care, it'dbe a fucking change from killing people who scream abuse at me in a slavic language, and damn the Political Correctness crowd when they scream racism, easy fix to that, make the main character an ethnicity other then white or have one of the campaigns have you playing as one of these non white bad guys killing, say, white Englishmen. There, instant diversity, controversy, variety and PROGRESS to the FPS genre and war games in general.
I am still going to play MW3 when it comes out, hoping they can salvage what the trailers and teasers based purely on my faith int he current developers. But we'll see.
