    I think it game violence was more realistic itd actually have the opposite of making it look cool like mainstream media suggests.
     
    And the CoD games do a good job of making war and violence a very not-so-happy thing, and its never just black-and-white.

    Oh I see the PR generation machine is working as intended.
    Good to know.
    Gotta go check in with the marketing team.

    Modern Warfare 2 had you stab a dude with your hand over his mouth and then look into his eyes as the life drained away and then you pulled a knife out of yourself and threw into another dudes eye. Come on Treyarch give us at least one good scene of gratuitous  violence.

    @Jimbo:  I have, but FPSes are fun and Greg Hasting's Paintball 2010 is kinda bad (and annoying. When I step off the field to chug a gatorade, I really don't want PR people dragging me into a beta kiosk (sadly true story)) 
     
    Anyways, I'm lolling at all the people saying "It's war, it should be violent." Dudes. It's Call of Duty. The realism stopped somewhere between the time Zombie Gaz told me to take cover while eating 78 shotgun shells and Captain Muttonchops shot down a helicopter with an M4. Go take a look at any of the Black Ops marketing and tell me it wants to be more realistic.

    THIS IS EASILY THE MOST VIOLENT CALL OF DUTY GAME. 
    Wait till you have actually played it before condemning  them for toning down the violence.

    OK, everyone here needs to go and read IGN's preview. Just wait for a level in the campaign called "Numbers"
