CLEARLY NOT FAIR AND BALANCED
Good job as usual Brian.
Hell yes.
I have to ask though, why was your top button buttoned when you weren't wearing a tie? It's my understanding that doing so is a fashion no-no (also, IMO, it just plain looks silly).
As to the topic addressed, I think there are really two draws to games like this (and by games like this, I mean high-quality, high production-value, well thought-out games like MW(n), the Battlefield series, etc): 1. It's cathartic. Like you said in the interview; there's so much going on in the world, it gives people a chance to experience (however limited) some of it. 2. People appreciate well-produced art. Games like this work very hard to give an immersive, realistic, and downright cinematic experience.
I hope other news organizations start realizing that people like you (and this community) have opinions worth hearing. Plus it's great to be able to say "I know that guy".
Nicely done.
You've said it yourself to me that Al Jazeera was a respectable global media network. I now see that to be true. I am impressed.
I was originally planning on picking up MW3 several months after its release date... but maybe...
Is it the name?
That said on the topic of the actual game it seems, at least to myself that it hasn't changed since COD4, the story may be worth a rent or something but unless I find something (Or someone can show me something) absolutely ground-breaking in comparison to the other games I don't think CODMW3 will ever appear on my 'to buy' list.
