They kept it simple. They didn't have all the secondary weapons they only had pistols unless you had overkill which allowed two primary weapons. The perks had no "Pro". They had a 3-5-7 killstreak not a 3-4-5-6-7-8-9-11-15-25 killstreak along with deathstreaks. The guns had simple attachments- 'nade launcher(which took up perk one)silencer,ACOG,red dot sight, and some had a grip. Compared to MW2's atachments with the holographic and heartbeat sensor. MW2 broke off of that and now has too many possible combinations for people to enjoy, yeah some people like MW2 like myself but COD4 was better because there aren't as many choices. Infinity Ward tried to make MW2 more well rounded by adding more secondary and attachments, but forgot about the simplicity that made COD4 so good.

Completely agree. COD4 took more skill, and that's why I like it more than MW2. I will admit, IW did a good job in WANTING to improve the game and add a huge amount of new features, but the stuff they added just hurt the game, not improve it.

As with every game that comes out, they have their advantages and disadvantages.
Goldeneye was great because of this and that, Quake was great because of this and that
CoD4 to you might have been better, but in some 14 year old's eye MW2 is the greatest game ever. I am glad you like CoD4, but the truth is some people are going to blast you for not liking what they love.
Black Ops hopefully will have Zombies and thats what will determine if that game is good.

Don't forget that cod4 was far from perfect and even though mw2 does seem to cater to players of all type, it does do some things better than cod4 (i.e. host migration and permanent mute function (my fav btw))
Just to name a few things in cod4 that were complained about quite frequently:

Yeah I agree. It's like cell phones nowadays. Who the hell wants mp3 player, camera and stuff like that in their phone? Too many choices=ba. Because then the chances that someone is using the same set up that I am are reduced, and I like it when everyone uses the same set up.

Just to name a few things in cod4 that were complained about quite frequently:
- martydom
- juggernaut
- frag 3x
- noob tubes (4x w/ overkill)
- sonic boom
- lag
- flying hacks (which lasted for about a month or so)
And this game has no lag yeah right and most of the junk in this game in caters to lag commando being one of them.

Just to name a few things in cod4 that were complained about quite frequently:
- martydom it is a deathstreak now along with others
- juggernaut put another bullet in him, now you have painkiller
- frag 3x with scavenger and OMA it is unlimited in MW2
- noob tubes (4x w/ overkill) OMA and scavenger
- sonic boom Stopping power for explosives (in MW2)
- lag in MW2
- flying hacks (which lasted for about a month or so) 10th prestige hacks in MW2 and boosters

Don't get me wrong, I still love cod4 and play it to this day - I just find it funny when people act like cod4 was the greatest thing since slice bread. Do me a favor and try playing headquarters in shipment with a lobby full of frag 3x and martydom and tell me how fun it was.
And my bullet points weren't intended to be compared to mw2 as I'm just as fed up as everyone else with the commando, OMA, noobtube, etc. b.s.
