Watched you on Invisible Walls, and have always liked your game commentary. I agree with what you said on Halo ODST, it feels like a standalone expansion pack, but for $60. Never been a big Halo fan, but I played the game with a friend using his copy, and cause Nathan Fillion was in it. It is a little sad how Microsoft is cashing in, and I think they really didn't advertise this game much because Modern Warfare 2 is going to sell like crazy, and majorily on their console.
Not a fan of Bobby Kotick either, he comes off as a corporate tool who can't figure out that the products he's selling are supposed to be 'fun'. I'm still buying Modern Warfare 2 though, because I've loved Infinity Ward since Call of Duty 1. I want my money to at least make it to them as a developer, though I respect your choice not to buy into Activision. It's kinda sad that Activision has only one developer I'm really interested in, because most their other games suck. Just like you said they also throw away good games like Ghost Buster and Brutal legend, and stick to franchises. Even Guitar Hero doesn't feel as good as Rock Band, so I don't see much else reason to buy their products outside of Infinity Ward.
