As much as Infinity Ward would have liked to have dropped the Call of Duty name, Modern Warfare 2's full title is Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2.
This looks to have been altered more recently, don't see why, there're no two ways about it, "Modern Warfare 2" should be an alias only.
Rename: Modern Warfare 2
We've been through this many times. In all official press releases from both Activision and Infinity Ward, they refer to the game as "Modern Warfare 2", and we reflect that with our naming of it on the site. The call of duty branding is on the box, but is not part of the games official name.
EDIT: Here is the official statement from activision which they issued directly after the box art displaying "Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2" was released ( source):
Infinity Ward’s Modern Warfare 2 is the direct sequel to Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare. We have focused our attention on Modern Warfare in order to most effectively communicate the fact that this is the first true sequel in the Call of Duty series. Infinity Ward, the original creators of the Call of Duty franchise, has said from the beginning Modern Warfare 2 resides in the Call of Duty universe. This is reflected in the title’s package.
