While you can leave it to the French to get a leaked copy and ruin the game for those who want it ruined. I personally didn’t until I saw headlines saying “Modern Warfare 2’s Controversial Opening.” I took a look at the video and at about 2:10 seconds in, I saw what they meant.
DO NOT CONTINUE READING IF YOU DONT WANT SPOILERS!
The video offered a scene from the beginning of the game where you are in what appears to be a subway station of some kind. You are with a few other men and there is a group of about 40 people standing in front of you. You violently mow them ALL down with your weapons and continue to through and kill more people you see as you advance in what appears to be an airport(don’t quote me on that). While this is the first time they put you in the roll of a terrorist, you have to wonder what it’s all about.
I guess we’ll have to wait until November 10th to find out. Here is the video if you’d like to see for yourself.

so many crying sissies…. its just a game
People need to remember that this is purely fictitious. If you don’t like the content, don’t buy the game, simple as that. They need to stop getting all hot and bothered over this and realize its a video game. This isn’t even the worst things I’ve seen in a video game, I think some of the stuff in the GTA series is much worse.
dude you can skip the gruesome scenes and it does not hurt the plot
im a little shocked, IW is going a little overboard with the whitehouse and airport massacres plus much more to come.
I never find anything in games to be too offensive or anything like that. So, this seems perfectly fine for me.
Hmmmmm its not that bad i mean its not like we havent done somethin like this in another game “cough GTA Cough ” yea……. But still i have a feeling alot of pple wont like this part -___- even though its judt a Game >_>
hmm, it does seem quite strange!!!
Very brutal even for a game
its not real people. if this makes u want to kill people at an airport then u have mental problems but me i see it as just a game and i can leave it at that. i aint gunna pick up again and kill people. its not sick. its not wrong. its called story development if it wasnt there we wouldnt feel for the characters later or feel what they want us to feel. yes we are supposed to say its wrong that makes you a normal person but grow a pair and deal with it.
my two cents
i aint gunna pick up a gun* and kill people :L
hmmm
Man… I don’t care I can handle beginning I mean when they just shoot the people in the beginning I just stopped the vid
Edit: I don’t think I can handle the beginning
I am absolutely loving this. this i can tell is going to be my favourite part of the game. hope the make an modern warfare gurilla warfare based on the ira this would be epic
console that it was played on was ps3…
note that it is in spanish…. probley being played in mexico by someone who works at a store..
aslo note that there was alot of other missions… so this could be the terriost play thorugh
no kreyg i dont agree that it was an airport it looked alot like a mall (the hummer is in the isle…)
AND plus, jmill722 yea… sadly im pretty sure that was mw2
this part makes it 18+
I dont think I will be able to kill those poor people when I play >.<…
I agree, kinda distasteful/brutal but eh
1. Nice reflection HOLLA SENIOR
2. Not bad clearing out a airport must be like trying to stop a witness or suspect from escaping kinda makes me think bck to the MILE high club scene in COD4 hmmmm anyway ok video ^_^
Haha that looks awesome. But people need to get over it it’s just a video game not real life tho this stuff happens in real life to…
this leaves IWs door wide open for the news or some other group to stick there foot in. Just hoping IW can close it fast before they get in.
Damn,that was so brutal.I bet all the news stations are gonna go all crazy over this.
Kind of distasteful. I’m actually quite shocked.
I mean, if the people at the airport were armed forces fighting back, sure. But defenceless citizens getting shot in the back, as the mission? Oooookay. Whatever sells right?…
I actually sent you this as a tip last night just in case you couldn’t find the video or you didn’t here about the story. If this is real MWF2 is going to be hated by a lot of people.
