A refreshing direction, making more of an impression than any of the Call of Duty games since Modern Warfare 1.

One interesting aspect--you eventually notice there are absolutely no loading screens, and surprisingly not even downtime for briefings. Normally, you would expect the backstory dictated into your ear, and your motivations for what you are about to do fabricated and handed to you. Instead, in MoH, events simply unfold infront of you cinematically: either live in game, through scripted events, or in a cutscene, and you just know what you feel and what you want to do; noone has narrated this to you. The result is similar to a book that you cannot put down. The whole process is subtle, fluid and organic. Someone has clearly put thought and effort into these transitions, and I probably can't overstate the positive effect it conspires.
