A trailer for Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare premiered on ESPN in the US recently and is now available as the gods intended - as a sweet digital download (in HD, no less). The new trailer shows off a bunch of in game footage, the most immediately noticeable part of which is that the game is no longer set in World War 2. Instead it looks set in a world of sand, turbans and beards - and thus what I must assume are terrorists (or at the very least, insurgents!). Grab the trailer now
locally from AusGamers - it's also available now in
Quicktime if you prefer the more fruity flavour to your videos.
Update: for the hardcore, there's also a
60 FPS 720p version.

I just hope they keep the 5v5 SD and not move to bf2 style mass warfare. that can stay with et:qw but i like cod2 for the individual aspect.

Yeah now onto the Middle-East bandwagon. Should last them at least another 3 years.
Then maybe some futuristic thing. There's also Vietnam (both done by BF)
But .. I'd prefer a Cold War game.

Maybe if you picked up health packs, but they didn't heal you right away, like, you could hold onto them and then they regenerated your health, because you're using the health pack. It makes a bit more sense, to me anyway.
In Halo, magic health makes sense because it's the future and they've invented magic, like space travel and whatever.

Don't get me wrong, I enjoy all FPS, including BF2 and COD, but nothing about COD4 (graphics, presentation, etc.) floors me, in this trailer.
What the (gaming) world doesn't need is more terrorists.

COD never seemed like a realistic game to me, it reminded me more of a big action war movie than a game going for realism. At the end of a day its a game, its meant to be fun, and in a game like COD being able to regen your health makes it more fun because then you're likely to rambo it up more and participate in the whole over-the-top action movie flavour of the game.
If you want realism, go play that new game by the Operation Flashpoint guys (Armed Assault?) Personally, I find realism gets in the way of fun more often than not, and I prefer my games to be fun.

the first fps to use the bandage system was action quake 2, u could bandage as many times per round as u wanted, however head shots were instanta kills. getting shot in the leg decreased speed and jumping ability etc etc. a bit of trivia - in action quake 2 (its a quake 2 realism mod) it was forbidden to use a crosshair for online play. Ud be vote kicked off the server if ppl caught u using one. Times have changed ;)
