I don't think cod is the worst game series out there but I must admit it has got gradually worse since and including mw3. There is a massive lack of game feel and atmosphere and going down the road with the futuristic theme doesn't work. In the first 2 (at a push 3) games you could relate to the characters (soap and captain price) and the places,weapons and machinery.sneaking around sniping in the grass and snow all gave it a atmosphere and a kind of realistic feel. Now it's just another cartoon you run around in and shoot stuff with strange unrealistic weapons. In my opinion it's a real shame but I'm sure other people still like it.
