Still not impressed. Then again, it could have something to do with the fact that I stopped playing video games a couple years ago (Modern Warfare was the last one I bought), and in that time my level of enthusiasm for games has plummeted; so much so that when a statement like this pops up

Calling Modern Warfare 2 anything but the "most anticipated game of the year" at this point would be a gross understatement. Any and all news on the game is considered monumental.

I laugh to myself, remembering what it was like, and in almost pure shock that others still find the time to devote to video games. It is good to see that perhaps gamers are getting bang for their buck this time with the addition of the Special Operations game type, because I absolutely LOATHE buying a game for full price, and getting 80% multiplayer out of it because the single player campaign is under ten hours long. I sually stuck to hardcore just for this reason, because there were more serious gamers in those modes and you actually had to have talent (i.e., getting the drop on someone more often than not meant you killed them, whereas in standard modes it took 60,000 bullets to bring a screaming prepubescent boy down, unless of course they shot you, in which it only took 2).
But the trailer posted earlier really turned me off. Rap music and warfare just don't mix, and if I remember correctly, which I do, the only thing I disliked about the multiplayer (on any game, for that matter) is having a headset in, because without one on CoD, you are at a disadvantage, but with one, I have to listen to shitbag retards calling me and each other "nigga" every 5 seconds and talk about pot and bitches and how absolutely stellar their lives are, instead of you know, playing the fucking game.

Sort of. Like I said, the trailer is plainly appealing to a certain demographic, as showcased by the choice of music. When I hear rap, I get that embarrassed feeling brought on by people trying to hard to accomplish their objective, in this case trying to be "badass" instead of letting the game speak for itself.
