A few months ago in a time before TOR, I decided over a four day period to play through the single-player campaign of the shooters that I had on my Steam list. I started with Modern Warfare 2, then Black Ops, Homefront and finished with the new Medal of Honor.
Needless to say it was a long weekend as the only game I truly enjoyed was Medal of Honor. Which honestly was a surprise to me. I was already having fun with the multiplayer as it was giving a taste of what Battlefield 3 might be, but I did not think I would enjoy the story as much as I did.
I know I mentioned finishing Rage, but that hasn't happened because of my renewed interest in TOR. I never hated the game, but I wasn't finding it all that interesting at times. You could say I was a bit bored. Something I have been thinking about doing since Modern Warfare 3 came out was playing through the Modern Warfare's.
I have the next three days off, so this could just be the right time to do just that. Although I always have Wed-Fri off, so really any week I could do this. But as of right now I am only playing TOR since finishing WitN last week so I do have the time to tackle this task.
Honestly I give myself ideas like this because I have a tendency to waste time, and I really hate feeling like I didn't accomplish something during my time off from work. And besides, I have only played MW3's multiplayer, and by all accounts the single-player is decent.
Of course this all depends on if I can pry myself away from TOR's grasp...

Wait what? You like the new MoH the best? I thought it was bloody awful. they tried to be so different, but ended up doing a much worse patch-up job of copying the others.
Hell even battlefield Bad Company 2 was better than that!
I know, weird isn't it. The story was ok, but for some reason I just really enjoyed the gameplay. After playing Black Ops and then Homefront, MoH didn't have to do much to be better than those two.
The Modern Warfare games actually have a pretty strong story line that unusually links across episodes so playing all three in a row is probably the best way to experience it. The first was definitely my favourite though. COD4 has several sublime missions.
I wasn't such a fan of the latest medal of honour but I thought the one before (Airborne) was pretty good. It suffers from a lack of checkpoints though so beware.
I did play Airborne a long while ago, and at the time I did not like it. I still own it so maybe at some point I'll give another try.
