MW2 fans will like... Black Ops fans should stay away!
by costindb on January 4, 2012
Pros: Great story line. The graphics are improved over Black Ops, spec ops are back. Great options for multiplayer and on line spec ops. Some cool new perks to play with. Awesome use of death streaks and kill streaks.
Cons: Everything Black Ops did well has been taken out of this game. Multiplayer is heavily lacking the fixes of black ops such as: bullets around corners, bad respawn locations, dropped games, & lag.
Zombies has been removed.
Campaign is WAY TOO SHORT!
Summary: This is a good game and I don't regret getting it, but I can't help but feel that this game really missed the mark in advancing the series. ...

Summary: This is a good game and I don't regret getting it, but I can't help but feel that this game really missed the mark in advancing the series. A step up from Modern Warfare 2 and a step back from Black-Ops.
While graphically it looks and feels better than Black-Ops, it is far less refined from the perspective of game-play, motion, entertainment, and over-all quality. The story is entirely too short, I finished it in a few hours. In contrast to both the MW2 and Black-Ops whose campaigns took me 2-3 days of game play to finish. The multiplayer mode is plagued with the same problems as MW2. The emblem creator has been removed. The choice of unlocking attachments in whatever order you want has also been removed. Zombies has been removed. Wager matches have been removed (including gun games, one in the chamber, and sticks and stones). A lot of the camo's, and customization options have been removed.
When I purchased Black-Ops I sold my MW2 game within a month because I knew I would never play it again. After purchasing MW3, I will definitely be holding on to Black-Ops.
If you liked MW2, you will like this game a lot. If you liked Black-Ops more than MW2, this game will leave a lot to be desired.

- Description: Modern Warfare is back. The best-selling first person action series of all-time returns with the epic sequel to multiple Game of the Year award winner, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3. Prepare yourself for a cinematic thrill-ride as only Call of Duty can deliver. Engage enemy forces in New York, Paris, Berlin and other attack sites across the globe. The world stands on the brink, and Makarov is intent on bringing civilization to its knees. In this darkest hour, are you willing to do what is necessary? Special Ops returns with a bevy of additions, including 16 new objective-based missions and the survival mode. Team up online, locally, or play solo and face endless waves of attacking enemies throughout every multiplayer map. Purchase and customize your weapons, air support, equipment and abilities to stand up against increasingly difficult forces and land a spot on the leaderboards. Earn experience and rank up with the newly implemented progression system. The higher the rank, the more weapons, air support, and gear armories you will have available to customize so you can change your tactics on the fly. In addition to the action packed battle for freedom, the cooperative Survival Mode also serves as an effective training tool for competitive multiplayer action. Modern Warfare 3 delivers a multiplayer experience that continues to raise the bar by focusing on fast-paced, gun-on-gun combat, along with innovative features that support and enhance a large variety of play-styles. Now, you can truly define your approach with a toolkit more expansive than any previous title. Killstreaks have been redesigned, new game modes are being introduced, and a gun progression system evolves your weapons over time. Along with new perks, 16 maps and enhanced private match customization, multiplayer has been completely re-balanced and polished into the most intense and rewarding experience possible.
