i wanna know what you think but you gotta give reasons.. try not to get to pasionate.. its just 2 games.
ill start off the debate by saying i think that mw2 could be funner sorta.. but all in all WAW is better cuz i could nolife it forever and not get bored.
Here are my reasons
Why Waw Owns / sucks
Mp40 - fun as hell to use and you are insane with it/ sorta makes the game 1 dimensional but its still fun.. i had around 60k kills with it
Health bar/ Juggernaut - you can live long enough to not kill somebody or heal and not rage and punch your sofa and quit / it sorta makes it unfair because its so good
Maps - classic, realistic ( cuz they were real ) and all in all very fun.. eg dome was perfect, not to massive but small enough so its action packed/ i can't think of cons tbh..
Rifles - k im sorry you may think they were underpowered but they were not. they added such a new flavor rather then the fall/ they were a bit under powered if not used properally
Elites - Get good at the game, nobody can touch you ( not literally ) but if you were good you would have good results its not catering to the noobs / makes it hard for new players
k i don't wanna go overboard with WAW so ill start mw2
Killstreaks - SOOO MUCH VARIETY ITS AMAZING / for a few weeks til you realize everybody starts camping for nukes and stuff
Snipers - unlike waw they're not underpowered with thermal scopes and multi clipped and rapid fire shots/ they're OP now because you could just spray at close distance
Shotguns - Fun to use/ OP. ( understatement )
No Tanks - yeah self explanatory though tanks were alright they just slow things down if your in them or are a pain in the ass if your not.
Final Words
Overall waw is just more fun for me and i liked it a lot more.. it was addicting and when it got boring even though it rarely did, you could chill @ nazi zombies and stuff. There are things i forget to mention but im pretty sure they'll come up.
btw cod4 was legit but its not in the debate

in waw, in every map, on core or hardcore the majority of players in a lobby used mp40, this is a fact, and always with extended mags and stopping power + steady aim
i played WaW from day one up until MW2 release day, and this was always the case, you cant say about no one using mp40 now, because most people moved on to MW2, also fact

Cod waw was more run and gun action (More fun for me) because the best guns were the sub machine class (MP40 & PPSH)they excelled at close to mid range combat so u had to move about alot to get close to ur enemies, and u had time to react and fight back.
In MW2 the assault and sniper rifles, range, rate of fire and damage (or the lack of player health) means they are amazing that you can camp and kill people from miles off so u just stay in 1 spot and kill from a far cos if you get caught running from 1 spot to the next u have no chance to react. U also get the shotty out if ppl get too close and u get 1 shot kill (OP)
Both games have their bad points.
For WAW it was things being over used like martyrdom, bettys, Juggernaught, MP40's and Tanks
For MW2 they tried to solve most of them but created different problemss like painkiller, all op guns, op killstreaks, heartbeat sensors, thermals, Riot shields and large scale camping
but they play completely differently, i wouldnt say they were bad games.They are both great in their own way so i wouldnt say any sucked.
I played waw to 10prestige then stopped as mw2 arrived when i hit 10. I am still playing mw2 only on 2nd prestige and i tried running and gunning which i learned to do from waw but gave up very fast after it just wasnt as effective and had to adopt my play style to slower movements and picking ppl off across the map with an assualt rifle.I still miss running and gunning tho. I havent really tried playing MW2 on Hardcore mode yet even tho i loved using rifles (Gehwr mainly) in WAW on hardcore because MW2 on normal already feels like hardcore mode with the damage the rifles do and theres enough campers on normal without going to hardcore.

Yeah thats a really big and good point that i sorta skimmed on, the way the game is designed, so long range and with kill streaks encourage camping.
In waw, you would never see me standing in 1 spot.. even when i was suppose to defend things such as the HQ id rather just patrol the area cuz i couldn't stand being in 1 spot, now in mw2 im forced to play way more positional.. its fail.

WaW all the way baby.
the killstreaks in it were NEVER overpowered unless you truly suck. in MW2 if you come in a match where you are being spawnkilled by a chopper gunner/AC130 you don't have the time to grab your stinger/javelin.
hardly any bolt action SR's
I wished IW would've included all the guns from COD4. then MAYBE it would've been more fun. (R700 and the first sniper rifle ftw)
shitty maps. AND NO SHIPMENT LIKE MAP
and zombies > spec ops
the spec op missions have hardly any replay value to be honest. zombies never got old for me, still play it today but it's a shame that's there only 2000 games in the playlist nowadays.
those things are of course my opinion, I do not intend to bash MW2.
oh and they made it waay too noob-friendly. a friend of mine played it for the first time here and he basically owned with the FAMAS and the beginning killstreak.

You obviously didn't play any hardcore game modes.....LOL. First off Stoppiing power in Hardcore... really????? No one uses that. Second MP40 in Hardcore is worthless. Your actually at a disadvantage if you use it due to it's lack of range. you would get pwned by rifles all day long. I recomend commenting about something you know about buddy.

did u even play WaW?i played all modes, Core + HC FFA and team games
im going to be polite as polite as i can here, S.T.F.U
the majority of players on WaW played Core modes, and even those that play HC still use mp40, and extended clips, and steady aim, ok as for HC some did still use stopping power
but just to go back to what i was saying, most WaW players (Globally) use mp40, if you think otherwise your either blind or an idiot (And i dont mean now, i mean when everyone was on WaW)

yes most players did use stopping power, mp40 dual mags, and steady aim on hardcore waw but they were so easy to kill. U had a huge advantage over them using a rifle without stopping power to 1hit kill them, you had a huge range advantage and with a silencer equipped on it and u also had camoflage on aswell and probably last stand.
