Reviews from media aren't an effective way of measuring game excellence (or lack thereof), they don't talk about the media, the balance or other obvious game issues. BO got tons of praise, look how much hate it gets from users. I'm still probably not going to buy it; I'd rather play Halo or something if I wanted to play a futuristic game. I meant from players in general, not IGN or w/e. But yeah for futuristic i'll stick with Crysis.
