  • The sixth chapter of the Call of Duty series and
    the sequel to Call of Duty 4 Modern Warfare.
    (aka CoD, MW2, or just MW2)
  • FPS video game
  • Developed by Infinity Ward and published by
    Activision for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and
    Windows PC in 2009
  • Previous games include Call of Duty, Call of Duty
    2, Call of Duty 3, Call of Duty World at War,
    Call of Duty 4 Modern Warfare

Like in the previous game, you are an elite
soldier in multiple services ranging from the
British SAS to being an American Army Ranger.
Your mission is prevent WWIII from occurring. The
single player storyline is infectious and gets
the players attention from the beginning. Intense
cut scenes and plotline results in
adrenaline-pumping, heart-racing storyline that
makes the player want to keep going. Players are
able to identify with the characters and it makes
the game that much better. The story, in
combination with the online gameplay, makes it
playable for most anyone.

5 Reasons why Call of Duty Modern Warfare
2 should be canonized
1) Broke sales records across multiple
industries 2) Intuitive Create-a-Class for
online play 3) Updated Killstreak rewards 4)
Expanded the gaming industry 5) Its an amazing
game

Sales Record Demolition
  • The total income from first day sales in America
    and the UK was 310 million (214 million) which
    made Modern Warfare 2 the biggest entertainment
    launch in history
  • After five days of sales, the game had earned
    550 million (379 million) worldwide and as of
    18th January 2010, it has taken over 1 billion
    in sales.
  • This means that MW2 outsold any movie, play,
    sporting event, album or hit single in the recent
    history of the US

6
Create-a-Class
  • Over 42 assault rifles, shotguns, submachine
    guns, sniper rifles, handguns, launchers, light
    machine guns
  • Creativity was encouraged with perks like Bling
    which allowed you to have two primary weapon
    attachments
  • Different load-outs with different perks gave
    players the chance to make their weapons fit
    their play style you could be stealthy or balls
    to the wall
  • Gave MW2 a big advantage over comparable games

7
Updated Killstreak Rewards
  • Killstreaks were tools that players could use
    once they reached a certain number of kills in
    one life (ex. UAV showed where the other team
    was)
  • Previously you could only use the UAV, Airstrike,
    and attack helicopter but in MW2 you could
    utilize the Chopper Gunner, AC-130, Pave-Low,
    Harrier Strike, Sentry Gun, Nuke, and many many
    more.
  • Killstreaks were cumulative, so getting kills
    with one led to the subsequent ones.
  • This, like Create-a-Class, was very conducive to
    players being able to customize their playing
    style

8
Expanded the Gaming Industry
  • According to the NPD Group, Modern Warfare 2 sold
    approximately 4.2 million units for the Xbox 360
    and 1.87 million units for the PlayStation 3 in
    the U.S. during the month of November 2009
  • An unprecedented number of people played this
    game ranging from all sorts of different ethnic
    backgrounds, countries, ages and sexes. Everyone
    and their brother was playing MW2 which did a lot
    of good for the gaming industry and the gaming
    community as a whole.

No seriously, its an amazing game. Just watch
this.

Thats all Folks
The intuitive programmers and developers at
Infinity Ward and Activision have arguably
created the best first person shooter to ever
grace a gaming console. The reasons that I
mentioned and a multitude of others all lend
themselves as to why this game should join the
ranks of those to be canonized.
