"The healthy human mind doesn't wake up in the morning thinking this is it's last day on Earth - but I think that's a luxury, not a curse. To know you're close to the end is a kind of freedom. Good time to take... inventory. Outgunned, outnumbered, out of our minds on a suicide mission, but the sand and rocks here stained with thousands of years of warfare... they will remember us - for this. Because... out of all our vast array of nightmares this is the one we choose for ourselves; we go forward like a breath exhaled from the Earth, with vigor in our hearts and one goal in sight: We. Will. Kill him." Fucking shit this game is a masterpiece.
"This is for the record. 'History is written by the victor.' History is filled with liars. If he lives, and we die, his truth becomes written - and ours is lost. Shepherd will be a hero, 'cause all you need to change the world is one good lie and a river of blood. He's about to complete the greatest trick a liar ever played on history.

Honestly, mad respect to Infinity Ward for having the balls necessary to depict the CIA committing an atrocity as a means to an end that actually makes the situation 100 times worse for the populace. No dev would have the guts to try that today.

The quote means that the world being in turmoil, the world being filled with chaos and conflict, that's the default state. The world has been governed by fear and blood forever, which change being the only constant. He is saying that peace time is the abnormality, not war.
I know this is from 4 months ago, but I believe it is due to the fact that shepard said "I am commandeering yours" so we are led to believe that the people we kill as Soap are those that we have been playing as all game. Ads a sense pf regret and realism to those you have to kill to get to Shepard
@@wailmerpail Ah ok. I worked with some rangers back in the army. They are a breed apart. They are born to kill. I would have paid ANYTHING to be a ranger
6:55 is so chilling when you hear the sirens and then whenever the mission starts and you see the planes dropping off soldiers. Im imagining this happening in real life and I'd pass out if i saw that
When i was younger i didn’t really understand everything bc my english wasn’t that good, but now i can say that this MW trilogy is the best FPS trilogy ever, and also Black ops 1 is great game with great story, hell... it came down a lot since then :/
When the emergency broadcast at 11:47 started playing, it was 2 am and I freaked out and woke up my family. PG county was right down the road and I thought the broadcast came through Xbox live hahaha That’s how sucked into this game I was
I legit had the same issue, 7pm on a wednesday night in middle school, panicked to call my parents as they were out, luckily the cutscene ended before I sent the call through.
Lighting shows the age a bit, but the advantage is that it still looks very good at 200+ FPS. I get about 100 running modern games at highest settings.

19:21 one of my favorite debrief intro, after you see ghost and roach die your in shock but when this music comes on you get adrenaline knowing it isn't over yet and your new task is to kill General Sheperd
It just occurred to me that the moment Price took command of the 141 and then disobeyed orders is when Sheppard decided that they had to die. Sheppard recognized Price as a threat and he recognized that everyone in the 141 would follow Price no matter what. So while there was no guarantee 141 would have survived, rescuing Price and him taking command of the unit did guarantee that they needed to die for Sheppards plan to continue.
Thats not it. The modem roach and ghost stole showed that makarov was dealing with shepard. They planned allens death so ww3 would happen. Shepard wanted his war for revenge.
"Someone turn off the damn TV." One sentence makes entire briefing so damn real. It feels like Shepherd is sitting in a command office while other officers are doing their own job and someone is monitoring screens with a normal TV channel. The emergency sound doesn't stop right away after Shepherd saying so, the sound continues for a few seconds and stops. It actually is like someone is getting the remote control of that TV or he or she is going towards the control panel of screens and push the button of that TV. It is still astonishing to me that one simple design of sound is able to create such a visual. This line is not the greatest or most epic or meaningful one. But it is the most impressive one to me after playing this game 3 times.
They completely fucked up I-95 on the map though. It does not go that far inland. It stays close to the cost basically the entire way up from Florida to Maine.
Watching the 100 fighters fly over San Diego did that to me that's where I'm at, though the Pacific fleet is here and the marine corps air base, dont think they'd get super close in
Why was this epic? Why was the music so good? Why were the cutscenes, characters, and the storyline itself so appealing? Why can't any Call of Duty title nowadays achieve that? I really don't understand
Because Bobby Kotick has faired Vince Zampella and Jason West who create CoD4 MW and CoD MW2. MW3 and next CoD was makes by creative weak people. Now Zampella make a Titanfall and create new studio Respawn Entertainment. And if you want same experience like CoD 4/6 you should to play games from Respawn.
This game is the true MASTERPIECE. Best COD ever imo. Cant count How many times i replayed the campaign those days, never gonna find that feeling again.
Soap: price...? Price?? Price: the healthy human mind doesn’t wake up in the morning thinking it’s the last day on earth Soap: ah shit here we go again
Bro what I love is the transitions between factions how it switches from Task force to Ranger and the music and tone change Jesus this game is the best cod of all time they got everything right the campaign multiplayer even the special ops was fun
If you read Makarov's rap sheet there's a part that reads "Shopping mall bomb blows up swedish furniture store in St. Petersburg, 100 shoppers killed or wounded." Apparently the man was so patriotic that he decided to target his local IKEA. Either that or he got lost and never forgave them.
mw2 briefings gave a rare feeling of reality to the mission: (at least for the US missions) it really looks that's exactly what would happen in case of an invasion (see, Emergency broadcast system)
20:33 This quote right here speaks words no human can ever muster more honestly. Just goes to show you. It's not the amount of firepower you've got that wins a war, its who wants it more.
Hans Zimmer is a fucking GOD of soundtracks, movie or video game he fucking nails the atmosphere and severity of the situation.. The unnerving interludes and realising whats at stake No one does it better than Zimmer
At least a games company has made the loading screen enjoyable, even if it takes 30 seconds, keep me occupied with something interesting like this, which is why I liked Modern Warfare 2 mostly for its story, and the setting. GTA V should learn from this.
The first one is “Exodus”, the second is the later part of “The Enemy of My Enemy Is My Friend” from the Original In-Game Soundtrack album (the one Lorne Balfe arranged from Hans Zimmer’s main themes album).
I still remember where I was the first day when this came out, watching this on my cousin's flat screen. The second speech in particular made by Shepard blew me away as a teenager. Still can't forget this game nor find any Call of Duty that supercedes it. Everything about it is full force and perfect.
As much as I miss playing mw2, I’d love to see this remastered. All I can say is I’m glad I played this went it was in its prime. Literally played this game for the whole of 2010. Good times, no, great times !
I was 12, almost 13 years old when this game came out! Middle school. Man, so many good memories from those days. I'm not even that old, but nostalgia is a powerful feeling...
I know is something that can't be done anymore for narrative purposes, but damn, the briefing cutscenes in the Modern Warfare saga were one of the best things in the games
The more things change, the more they stay the same. Boundaries shift, new players step un, but power always finds a place to rest its head. We fought and bled alongside the Russians; we should've known they'd hate us for it. History is written by the victor; and here I am thinking we'd won. But you bring down one enemy and they find someone even worse to replace him. Locations change; the rationale; the objective. Yesterdays enemies are today's recruits. Train them to fight alongside you, and pray they don't eventually decide to hate you for it too. Same shit different day. You know what I'm looking for, Sgt. Foley. Keep your eyes open. Got a new batch hittin' the pit today, sir. I'll send you the best I find.
@@inspecthergadget4503 I seen you can trust someone but they aren't trustworthy. I started to look around me with ppl I trusted and most only had me around because I was useful to them. Some I had the "Safehouse" mission with and they absolutely shocked me with how they really felt about me.
Every time I hear that siren, I get the chills. Simply amazing. I hope someday they continue onto the storyline with more battles or even a movie on the invasion?
Remember playing this all damn night when I was a kid, I was on the edge of my seat for the whole game, especially at the end, I thought price was done for, I was so heartbroken only to see him regain consciousness, no game today has made me feel this way since tbh, what happened to the love that was out into these games, even the loading screens having us go through briefing, that was a HUGE W in my opinion I loved every single detail they put into the trilogy of the 3 games. ❤
This shit went so hard. Shepherd evokes the composure and confidence of an Ancient Roman general. You could pull him right out of a time machine and he'd fit right in. Everybody overlooks Hans Zimmer was doing the soundtrack for this game cause it was just that damn popular!
When I was a kid my father gave me this game, and uh, I didn't understand any of this game, but as a senior high school student now, I realized that this is one of the best game ever(or so I thought)
Back then when even the loading screens were bad ass.
This is how to load another mission.
The new modern Warfare uses cancer cutscenes instead.

R A M I R E Z
Of Their Own Accord is great too.
@@vinnievu1the only easy day was yesterday is my favorite mission.
i like it bc its got a reference to my favorite movie.
We need this type of realism in CoD campaigns again. This was perfect.
lol, we're kind of having the realism right now in Ukraine.
The more things change, the more they stay the same. Boundaries shift, new players step un, but power always finds a place to rest its head. We fought and bled alongside the Russians; we should've known they'd hate us for it. History is written by the victor; and here I am thinking we'd won. But you bring down one enemy and they find someone even worse to replace him. Locations change; the rationale; the objective. Yesterdays enemies are today's recruits. Train them to fight alongside you, and pray they don't eventually decide to hate you for it too. Same shit different day. You know what I'm looking for, Sgt. Foley. Keep your eyes open.
Got a new batch hittin' the pit today, sir. I'll send you the best I find.
This feels oddly like today
"They are everywhere" - Ukrainians probably
9:20
“Just point it out on the map, Sir. They won’t take it.”
Love that part.
A very Roman quote
I would pay anything to get back the feeling I felt when I first played the campaign. Nothing else has topped this feeling so far.
17:36 The first time ive felt a true and deep feeling of betrayal, and learned people aint shit😒
I cried when that happened.
People ain’t shit? What, this fictional character you mean?
XR7_ NV3 ikr it’s just a fuckin video game
@@xr7_nv348 he actually sees the world as it is, not what he wanted to be.
@@inspecthergadget4503 I seen you can trust someone but they aren't trustworthy. I started to look around me with ppl I trusted and most only had me around because I was useful to them. Some I had the "Safehouse" mission with and they absolutely shocked me with how they really felt about me.
Every time I hear that siren, I get the chills. Simply amazing. I hope someday they continue onto the storyline with more battles or even a movie on the invasion?
I absolutely love this game! These have to do with my love for it.
Never skipped loading scenes in MW2! Great part of the game!
Looking back at these scenes I wish I was just a bit older when I first played this game so I could have understood it more deeply.
"One bullet can unleash the beauty of a whole nation" crazy how true it is lol
*fury. not beauty
Unbelievable how many people liked this comment
I mean hey, WWI started because of an assassination.
TravisBroski
there were already tensions between the European powers the assassination was only the spark
Put on subtitles at about 2:20 and watch on. Nice upload BTW
GoldenDragonLord "sure it matters whos got the biggest dick"
The Harbour Master "But it matters a hell of a lot more who's swinging it" ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
And that my friends, is worth more than army based of peel
Ridhwan Ramzi the closed captioning on youtube is pretty broken lol
+GoldenDragonLord lmfao, you have me in stitches
"Just remember your new identity. It'll keep you alive."
We both know that's not true, Shepherd.
Everything Shepard says can literally be quoted 😂
Man, this game was amazing. The cutscenes, the mp, the ost, everthing
"Do not Trust Shepherd"
"The more things change, the more they stay the same."
ty now i have many awesome wallpapers animated :D
Watching the cutscenes made me want to play the game again.
Lorne Balfe did such an incredible job with the soundtrack. And a thumbs up for Hams Zimmer for creating the theme for the game.
2:25 LOL Look at the subtitles
nice
@@idontmindpineappleonapizza9591 what's it?
@@ssc-z1g just turn on the caption I dont wanna spoil it for u
@@idontmindpineappleonapizza9591 :D thx

Remember playing this all damn night when I was a kid, I was on the edge of my seat for the whole game, especially at the end, I thought price was done for, I was so heartbroken only to see him regain consciousness, no game today has made me feel this way since tbh, what happened to the love that was out into these games, even the loading screens having us go through briefing, that was a HUGE W in my opinion I loved every single detail they put into the trilogy of the 3 games. ❤
Lance Henriksen did one hell of a job as Shepherd my God.
Ranger’s lead the way
"THEY'RE EVERYWHERE" god, as a kid living on the east coast and seeing that cutscene, i shit my pants when they said russians were killing civilians.
This shit went so hard. Shepherd evokes the composure and confidence of an Ancient Roman general. You could pull him right out of a time machine and he'd fit right in. Everybody overlooks Hans Zimmer was doing the soundtrack for this game cause it was just that damn popular!
Hmm... music to my ears, you know your history. After all, where the second capitol sits, the Roman spirit still resides
"Welcome to the one four one, Best hand picked group of warriors on the planet" Best line!
4:50 still gives me chills!!!!
Did anybody else read Makarov's Rap sheet at 4:32? The amount of effort the devs put into something that very few people will ever see is pretty cool.
'Rap'sheet lol, makarov be spittin bars
That nigga really blew up an IKEA. Holy shit.
"We are the most powerful military force in the history of man."
I love that line so much, the way the voice actor delivers it is incredible. such a dope line as an american
Its fucking true too
@@ethanmcfarland8240 Nah, Russia says hi.
Batman
Russia isn’t a superpower
You’re thinking of the ussr that collapsed over 20 years ago
Russia is a shadow of its former self
@@ethanmcfarland8240 They almost Conquered the United states tho
In this game
The last great Call of Duty game, never again will it be replicated.
Good bye Call of Duty 🫡
We will miss you forever.
Lance Henriksen's voice needed an award for this game.
When I was a kid my father gave me this game, and uh, I didn't understand any of this game, but as a senior high school student now, I realized that this is one of the best game ever(or so I thought)
This is for the record.
CriticalSoren History is filled with liars.
If he lives, and we die, his truth becomes written. And ours is lost
CriticalSoren His truth is going to be THE truth, but only if he lives, and we die.
"His truth will be the truth. But only if he lives... and we die."

“You have to trust someone to be betrayed. That’s why I never did.”
Meanwhile in MW3 when Yuri joined...
He did say thought i could
8:33 I really like that intro because of the soundtrack it’s so damn awesome
