Forums - Gaming - Why will Modern Warfare 2 supplant the original COD4? What feature upgrades

Like Nightmare24 said, it's about being able to level up again.

Also, it's about new maps, new modes, new equipment, new perks. Even if this is just an update of CoD4, it'll be worth the full retail price (and not many game companies can boast that about sequels). But luckily for us, IW isn't treating it that way.

And finally, what you said about MW2 can be applied to any sequel that follows the gameplay and plot of the original. You are getting a new story scenario for Uncharted, a new story scenario for Gears, you're getting a fresh coat of paint on GoW from last gen. But you won't hear many people complaining about that because those games are worth it.

What you said about Uncharted and Gears 2 is partly true.  However, I see the following that makes them worth considering owning:

1. Gears 2 happened to up EVERYTHING.  The controls were improved, and also they threw in bots, so single player is worth owning.

2. Uncharted 2 is adding multiplayer this time around.  This makes it worth it to me.  If it was just a story update, then it fits the rental arena.

 

I am just hoping that Modern Warfare 2 is more than just more of the same, more polished.  I hope it provides a new jump, for me.  If it doesn't, I could end up picking up COD4.  Because of this, I ask.

Anyhow, I want something like, while it doesn't need to be as weird, AT least something on part with the Zombie mode to COD 5:WaW.  I still have COD 5, because it has the Zombie mode.
