Was MW2 better than MW3?

To me, almost all of the MW2 maps(Excluding DLC) were better than those found in MW3. Karachi, Terminal, Rust, Scrapyard, Quarry, Afghan, Estate, Favela, Highrise, Skidrow, and SubBase. All of the are the BEST maps from MW2. And from MW3: Dome, Hardhat, Bakaara, and Resistance.

The GAMEPLAY-MW2- at least for me it was just better, between the guns, maps, killstreaks, ect. It was just a far better gaming experience. MW3- The maps arent that great, so i don't enjoy the gameplay.

Weapons-MW2- The guns were great. A few overpowered guns, as to be expected, the TAR, SCAR, UMP, and MODELS,

The choice is obvious. MW2 is better for many reasons

    MW2. I don't dislike MW3, i just don't like it as much as Mw2. Like you said, the maps aren't all the great, and too add onto that the graphics don't seem any better, if not worse then MW2. Mw2 had more color and imagination, everything in MW3 is too dull. The map making was not as creative as the other game's maps like Terminal, rust, and Favela. Which were probably my favorite maps from MW2. Even Treyarch did a better job. Black ops might have been a downgrade to the series, but they still were a hell lot more creative with nuketown, firing range, jungle, and the DLC maps.

    The games have their pros and cons. I like MW3 for its survival mode, easily obtainable golden guns, specialist package, some of the new weapons like PP90, kill confirmed and the the future game modes they will be introducing. I like MW2 better for its online multiplayer and maps, and graphics and its sharpness. MW3 didn't seem as sharp. When i was playing MW3 for like 2 weeks straight then popped in MW2 for shits and giggles, HOLY ****, I was stunned. MW2 looked so much better after playing MW3 for so long. What i also like about Mw2 was shotgun secondaries, and some the guns they have the MW3 doesn't like the Famas. I hate the type 95, that **** is garbage (and was nerfd anyway) especially when i have my baby famas.

    Talking more about the weapons. The ACR from MW2 is much better then the ACR 6.8, the SCAR-H is much better then the SCAR-L, The famas is much better then the Type 95, and the AK-47 is Absolute garbage in MW3. It's hard to choke out the words but, i think the AK-47 is one of the worst asault rifles in MW3. It wasn't the best in MW2 either, but it's much worse in MW3. Keep in mind that my ideas on the guns listed above are my own opinion. Others may think otherwise. But i'm just saying i know A LOT of people that agree with me, especially with the AK.

    Source(s): Own both, like MW2 better.

    Mw3 is a pile if crap. Mw2 is a pile of crap too just not as big or smelly as the mw3 pile of crap.

    Black ops is the best cod game but is a pile of crap too due too garbage hit detection round the corner bullets and through building bullets ( no hardened as no one uses it ). If black ops didn't have major hit detection issues it would have been brilliant but it's crappy hit detection issues ruins it. Mw2 may not have hit detection issues but it has other major issues like dying in two bullets in core mode.... Eh ? And rubbish graphics and rubbish maps.

    I disagree, the maps are pretty good, it just takes some getting used to as they always do with new editions. The gameplay i think is betteer as well, quicker and smoother i think. Guns are not as overpowered and a little more balanced i feel. New perks and killstreaks also make it a little more enjoyable.

    I disagree i think mw3 is better, i like the gameplay much better i find its more fast tempo. Theres thetear mode which i really enjoy. The guns in my mind are alot better. and so far i have found that mw3 has been doing alot better in updates and stuff the mw2 because ill i can rember from my mw2 days was the shitty connections, the lags, the cheats,glitches, all the bs thts not in mw3. and i like the kill streaks a bit better and i like the leveling up systemm more then mw2
