Looking for people who want to play MW3 or Black Ops with me. I have 360.
If anyone wants to play I will give you my gamertag.

In most modern shooter video games the protagonists need a credible threat against them and as most protagonists are American there are only a couple of countries that could really go toe to toe with them, or at the very least bring the fight too them. China are one, but it would be incredibly risky using China as an antagonist given that so much of the Western World relies on China to trade with. Given their regime, it isn't unbelievable to think China would throw a hissy fit and potentially stop trade.
Then we come to Russia, the old enemy of the US, with a similar size, population and military capability, complete with feelings of mistrust and animosity left over from the cold war. There are also no potential racial issues using the Russians as the big bad. Look at the fuss regarding Resident Evil 5 because you were killing zombies in Africa, who of course were black. To use a nation which isn't predominantly caucasian would result in cries of showing the white American marines cutting through "inferior" enemies as subtle racism. The only reason this outcry is lessened when using Middle Eastern enemies is because of the current situation, great pains are taken to show they are extremists and not representative of any particular nation and usually they are being used as a pawn by Russians.
Back onto the actual topic, I sadly tend to avoid the CoD games, the lack of vehicles just doesn't do it for me.
