I never found myself just a number among the many in the midst of large-scale warfare. This approach seems to go against the grain of the games being realistic, but that's more of a surface veneer. Modern Warfare 3 is still steeped in action-movie flair, which may be part of the franchise's appeal. The game similarly unleashes mayhem in New York, Paris, and Berlin along the way. The story this time around is far more logical, and is more engaging as a result.
Modern Warfare 3 definitely learned from that experience. Modern Warfare 3 does include a credit sequence that flashes sound clips and imagery from previous games in the series, but my primary recollection from Modern Warfare 2 was shooting my way to the end of the game without worrying about what was going on around me. That's a lot to ask after the frankly convoluted mess Modern Warfare 2's story spiraled into.
For dramatic effect, Modern Warfare 3 presumes I've committed the story to memory, and picks up seamlessly from the end of the prior game. Starting off with the campaign, I immediately found myself back in the thick of the fight, trying frantically to recall what the hell happened in the last two games. It didn't take long for me to start formulating my answer. As I grabbed the controller, the question at the front of my mind was whether the two studios could find a way to tap into the magic that separates Call of Duty from the ever crowded field of shooters vying for my time.

Modern Warfare 3 follows a new path, with development split between multiple studios: series vets Infinity Ward with key members of its team gone, and newly-formed developer Slegehammer Games. At its core, the Call of Duty franchise follows a distinct formula while maintaining its hold as the de facto representative of shooters within popular culture.
