Hello Modacity,
I've noticed around the Internet, including here, that people seem to be rather upset by Modern Warfare 2. In short, it's "just a bad game." I would be concerned, but I must thank you and all of the Internet for not only giving the game gratuitous amounts of publicity by not shutting up about it (which is strange, considering most bad games are usually best ignored and left to die alone), but by playing the game anyway. In fact, some of you have even been kind enough to buy the game you all have been bashing so much! I really must thank you for all the help.
With the success of our "bad, nasty game," we have been able to convince others, such as id Software, that features that took effort are not only unnecessary to add, but are discouraged, because as far as the business world can tell, the worse a game is, the more attention and money it will receive! It's a shame Valve decided to live up to making L4D2 a full sequel, Gabe could be swimming in as much money as I am if he had just done exactly what his ungrateful followers wanted and caused more and more viral ruckus for his game. So, while those perfectly good games wither away, you all can continue to dine on my shit and let it thrive for many years to come, while the entire industry follows our example and pumps out the terrible games that give your meaningless lives something to care about for a change.
So, in closing, you're welcome for Modern Warfare 2, because you clearly love it more than any good game that's out right now.
