meh, zombie mode is as pointless a waste of time if there ever was one. I mean I'm not saying it's not fun and I haven't played this a lot with friends, but it annoys me how mindless the mode was in black ops.
I prefer Left 4 Dead for zombie bashing. They pissed me off releasing 2 immediately after 1, but it's a great game.
You said that about Black Ops...and you were wrong. You also predicted that Black Ops sales wouldnt touch MW2 sales...and you were wrong. Not sure why you are so hell-bent on rejecting Treyarch. They have shown much more than infinity ward has shown with either MW2 or MW3...and its not even close. Black Ops was a much better experience than MW2...and MW3 cant hold a candle to Black Ops...and this coming from someone who has played MW3 for 180 hours, so I dont just say it to bash the game for no reason. I actually play.
13 year olds running around knifing people or shooting blindly online. A story that's supposed to be modern but has cold war politics. Little strategy. Basically, one giant army recruitment video. I'll pass.
There is a LOOOOOOOOOT of propaganda in MW3. I was kind of surprised by how much actually; I didn't really notice that in the rest of the series (other than the obvious...USA to the rescue stuff).
Already looks better than MW3. <iframe id="viddler-19a3cb18" src="//www.viddler.com/embed/19a3cb18/?f=1&autoplay=0&player=mini&secret=68210443&loop=false&nologo=false&hd=false" width="741" height="417" frameborder="0"></iframe>

really? i love it. still enjoy playing those maps and the expansion packs. board up the windows and hold of the hordes...that's just awesome
I agree ... Zombies is the best part of any of the Call of Duty games, in my opinion. I think it was more of a throw-in for World at War -- you had to initially finish the game to unlock Zombies, if I remember correctly. It became a huge hit. I'm sure it will exist in the new game -- they'd be killed by fans if they didn't put it in.

I dont know if they'll say but I'll ask if zombies are in the game (my company shares a floor with IW) actually goes to show how much i know about these games looks like IW didnt do this one - they were playing what looked like a beta version of this though in the offices when i came by the other day and they keep talking about it in the cafe downstairs
LOL....a bunch of CGI. How about actually game play? Battlefield WOW'd with actually game play in their first trailer.
That was/is gameplay, you just don't see the HUD. There's in-game cinematics in there also, but that was largely the game. In either case, the graphics look horrible (it's partially that I've been playing PC games lately) -- like the poster above said that engine is ready to die. I mean this still uses the same engine Call of Duty 2 was based on (which is the Quake3 engine...which was created in 1999); it's heavily heavily modified but it's really showing its age.
IW doesn't do the Zombie games, Treyarch does, and that is their trademark, the zombies, and it rocks ! DD
