Unless you’ve been living under a rock or hibernating for the past year you probably already know about Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. This is one of the most anticipated games of the year. I myself have been eagerly waiting for it and will immediately leg it out of my house to purchase a copy on its release day. It’s only another eleven days away now!
Modern Warfare 2
Whilst the game was being developed it was referred to as Call of Duty 6 but on December the third 2008 it was officially announced under the title of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. Activision later retracted this statement, stating that any information about the game was speculative. It was finally announced on February the eleventh that the game was being released during the Holiday season of 2009(Christmas season to most).
Modern Warfare 2 is set several years after the conclusion of Call of Duty 4. The radical Russian Ultranationalist organization has returned under the leadership of Vladimir Makarov, a former comrade of Imran Zakhaev. Makarov has publicized Zakhaev’s death as an act of martyrdom to gain support for his cause, enabling him to build a strong power base in Russia over the years. Fearful of Makarov’s growing influence, the global community established Task Force 141 to counter the threat posed by the Ultranationalists.
Modern Warfare 2 - Could It Be A BestSeller?
Infinity Ward CCO Jason West has stated that the single player campaign in Modern Warfare 2 would not be longer than the 6-10 hour campaign in Call of Duty 4. A trailer that was released on the Infinity ward youtube page hinted at a scene of fighting at the United States Capitol in Washington, D.C. This seriously excites me!
Special Ops mode now provides a third option for players to select at the main start screen that accompanies the traditional single-player campaign and competitive multiplayer featured in Call of Duty 4. In a way it connects the other two modes by allowing you to play on your own, with a mate via split screen or online for the full two-player co-op experience. It’s worth noting that Special Ops won’t support perks or customized loadouts, which are the hallmark of Modern Warfare’s competitive multiplayer. There was no customization screen prior to the game and no XP totals appearing above the heads of enemies as you shot them. It was a lot like the action you would expect in the single player campaign.
On October 29th 2009 G4TV stopped by the offices of Infinity Ward for a sneak preview of Special-Ops the new Co-Op mode for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. View the video at the link below for some exclusive footage of what’s to come in Modern Warfare 2.

I only have Wii Sports Resort to review Wii Motion Plus with. When you start of with Resort, you are skydiving off a plane onto the Island. You then experience the feel of the Wii Motion Plus. You hold the Wiimote horizontally and your Mii is laying on his/her stomach. Tilt the Wiimote to the side slightly and you will find your Mii going to the side. The same to the other side and if you point your Wiimote down wards or upwards your Mii then dose a nosedive or Stands vertically as he/she falls. Your object in the skydiving is to link up with as many people as possible. Your picture is then taken on regular intervals as you link up. When you get closer to the ground you must form up and link all together.
One of my favorite sports on Wii Sports Resort is Fencing. Thanksto Wii Motion Plus you are able to swing your Wiimote to the left and your Mii on the screen does the same to his opponent. As well as this there is a Speed Slicing Game. This is my most favourite games. You are paired with a random person, or with a friend in the MultiPlayer Mode. Your are then giving Objects to slice through. The Wii Motion Plus allows incredible accuracy and is perfect for this game.
Here is a few screenshots of Fencing and Speed Slicing :
