I was just reflecting on the series when I realized how absolutely dumb it was that this game has a [i]94[/i] percent on Metacritic. I mean, I can respect others opinions, and if you like it I won't really hold it against you, but from a content point of view, it's just lacking so much.
What made this game so highly praised? The campaign was microscopic in length, the multiplayer was almost completely broken and the Spec Ops missions are the only thing with actual substance- and even then they're just side missions. Was it just people buying into the hype because of a trailer featuring lots of explosions and mainstream rap? Of course there's too many lurking variables to make any sort of legitimate conclusion, but... I don't know.
What about you guys? Best/worst CoD? Stupidest/least stupid game? Thoughts on MW2 as a whole?

MW2 was the really the last CoD multiplayer that allowed strategy and variety in gameplay. BlOps sort of had remnants of it, but wasn't the same. Although the best matches were actually the hacked ones with bottomless mag on so grenade launchers were full auto and the AC-130's largest cannon fired as fast as its smallest.
