UPDATED REVIEW:
After playing this game for a solid 5 hours, I can say there is literally nothing new to this game from MW3 aside from a handful of new guns, kill streaks, and perks. Sure, that's nice to have all those new goodies, but what about the maps? I've played all 18 of the maps and they are almost identical to MW2. Same can be said about the menus. They look a little darker, but otherwise, they look exactly identical to MW3. The graphics still look crisp in this game, but are beggining to show their age. The engine CoD is using is too old for a juggernaut series like CoD. If Infinity Ward and Activison were actually smart, they'd put more effort into the graphics and maybe spend an extra year working on the next CoD title instead of shelling out a piece of crap repeat every year. My last opinion on the multiplayer is the hit detection. It's god awful sometimes, and there are a lot of cheap deaths like quick scoping. TOO easy in this game. The snipers don't have crap for recoil.

As for the campaign, it would be entertaining if it was my first time jumping into the CoD franchise, but it's not. Everything is the exact same crap. Run from point A to point B. Clear the room of baddies, and go to the next room and shoot more terrorists. Then pop up out a Predator Drone and shoot down a plane. No suspenseful or intense on the wire action here. Not saying that they should make the campaign realistic like Battlefield 3 (That campaign is pathetic.) But they could at least try to make the environments more destructible and add some sort of vehicular combat in.

I would reccomend avoiding this unless your a CoD fanboy.
