With all the hubbub surrounding elements such as a lack of dedicated servers, the seemingly controversial airport/terrorist sequence (which isn't actually as bad as the 'interwebz' would have you believe), and seeing America burning in flames - MW2 certainly has garnered more attention than even IW probably thought it would get. But there's no denying the quality of what's at-hand, and today's trailer demonstrates this in spades. The big secret reveal here: Space! Seriously, look out for the space bit.
Check it out here.

The hardon I had for this game has gone flaccid. I will wait for community feedback. GG infinity ward. Why become slaves to the conslol market??

Also they should have suppressed the vocals in the song. Eminem talking about himself has nothing to do with "modern warfare".

it always amazes me that people buy multiplayer games and never go online. I remember the COH producers stating a statistic that something like 75% of buyers never played online. just played the single player then comp stomps.

At least they didn't water down the gore like they did with L4D2. Talk about an act of softc***.

It only lacks gore if you are a noob.

Hahah holy s*** I didn't even think of that. You're gonna have to put up with whatever slim options they give you for mouse sensitivity. So if you can only set it in 4 different spots on the scale it is tough s*** if you can't get it right. Just like the FOV as well.

Yeah, yeah, I know I'm supposed to take a stand and not support companies pulling this sort of s*** by not buying their game, but its going to sell millions of copies on console anyway so its not like a few hardcore PC gamers boycotting it are going to make a difference. I'm sure those 20,000 signatures or whatever they got on their online petition for dedicated servers is really going to make Infinity Ward/Activision care while they're selling 2 million copies on console. I figure why punish myself by denying myself some awesome gaming?

Pretty much. The people who know/care about the lack of dedicated servers in cod6 would be ant sized compared to the s*** loads of console noobs lined up at EB Games.
Similar to the L4D2 boycott group. Got people talking about the game, maybe get a few haters over to IW-HQ to brainwash them into fanboys like valve did :)

I hope you feel guilty for making the baby jesus cry!

And just in case you respond to that with "yeah but your mum isn't", too late for that now it doesn't count.

Multiplayer. Worst part was the new latency system in multiplayer. First 15 mins was a s*** fight to find a server I could join that didn’t have a ”red light" latency. When I did find a server I got lag spikes roughly every 5 seconds, shots were delayed by roughly 1 second. Forget the days of 16, 32 and 64 player games, they are long gone! When I tried to host a game all I got was problem after problem after problem with port forwarding. The shear amount of ports that are required to be forwarded through the router is incredible. From the look of the ports that are required to be forwarded it seems if your hosting an online game anyone else on your internet connection won’t be able to join in. (I am yet to test this). This whole requirement of being a network engineer in order to host a clan match is not sitting well with me. The whole point that was made by IW taking away the dedicated servers was to “make it more simple” [fourzerotwo]. It is NOT simpler. Let’s see, a server browser vs portforwarding and firewall configuration. What a joke.
I just wandered over to IW to see if I could get some support, it seems they are now getting smashed with support requests from PC users (see below).
