Tried to join your server last night MB but it was full. Ended up jumping in with another mate and were on opposite teams. Shot him once and then 30 seconds later ran up behind him and knifed him in the back

Completed the SP last night.
Really rather underwhelmed by it. Didn't particularly like the first third. Second third was great but then the end was very disappointing imo. Story was absolutely ridiculous too
Think it suffered too much from desperately wanting to have a huge explosion every five minutes.

Single player wise: one of the weakest of the series imo (although did enjoy it more than CoD3!).

Looking forward to trying out multiplayer and spec ops though, but I am quite glad I didn't pay money for it as I'm not much of a multiplayer gamer anyway!

If you get the chance have a look at the leaderboards on xbox. Select the accuracy one then change filter to get global ranks. Go to top of list. When I looked earlier there was a guy on there at lvl 27 with 100% accuracy 758 shots all hits. Even if he's sniping that's still very good going.
Oh and if you look on global rank for score there was someone with 4 days and 7 hours play time already

I think you guys are being way over critical; it's a goddamn Call of Duty game. I want big set pieces, I want it to be OTT, I want a ridiculous story It's a popcorn action movie not fine french art.

Playing through on Veteran it's a tour de force; well paced with each chapter just the right length and I'm having a blast.

Looking forward to having a crack at special ops as Desmo has been telling me how much fun it is.
