Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Multiplayer Impressions

Your head will explode with points, unlockables, and the loudest gun porn since the new Rambo movie.

Hello Modern Warfare 2 fanatics,

I'm all fired up after a near five-hour bender of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 multiplayer. My head feels like it's about to explode with points, unlockables, and the loudest gun porn since the new Rambo movie. There's so much to talk about, so much you haven't seen yet, and I only got a taste of what Modern Warfare 2 has to offer.

Five hours gave me plenty of time to explore the ins and outs of the internal beta that's being played at Activision and Infinity Ward right now. There were three maps, new pro perks, equipment, customizable killstreaks, post-game accolades, and points galore. Let's get started with my Twitter updates throughout the evening, including pics and video footage.

This is the best looking game I have ever seen besides Crysis. It's definitely going to set the new standard of excellence and is about to crush all comers in sales numbers.

Hey Gamepro staff, what did IW say about people with modded controllers, glitchers, etc? Fixed issue?

Ok Holy crap! I wasn't too excited for this game before but now i'm most likely buying day one!!!

Actually I'll probably get the 360 bundle that comes with it. I've wanted a 360 for a while so I'm getting the bundle when I get one.
