MW2 - E3 "stage demo"

Warning: spoilers ahead.

In all likelihood, this is the mission that will be released as a single-player demo in the run-up to November 10 (and of course, will be one of the main set-pieces in the full game).

I'm not seeing anything with the engine that suggests a substantial upgrade at this point, but it all still looks very nice. It's obvious by now that Infinity Ward has recycled most of the assets from CoD4, with a certain amount of new stuff (e.g. the motion sensor) thrown into the mix. While that's not a bad thing by itself, it is likely to make the game feel like more of an expansion pack, as opposed to a proper sequel.

If the same holds true on the multiplayer end -- and I have no doubt that it will -- there won't be much to distinguish MW2 from CoD4.

  2. I noticed that, too. But since the guy's name is "Roach," I guess it fits.
