Modern Warfare 2 Could Have Had Aliens, Zombies
Absurd excesses aside, Modern Warfare 2 likes to keep thing pretty straight. Real men, real weapons, real countries. But during the game’s development cycle, Infinity Ward were open to things of a quirkier nature.
“In the beginning we talked about having things in Modern Warfare 2 like outbreaks, viruses, chemical warfare, and even outlandish things such as aliens and the living dead” says Jesse Stern, one of Modern Warfare 2’s writers.

“We worked our way through it before we finally ended up with a more grounded version of the real world as it’s depicted in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. And as we were kicking around scenarios for conflict, we kept stumbling into things that were happening in real life, which was honestly unintentional.”
The living dead? Where have we seen that before in a Call of Duty game…

Its sounds like a good game. I wanna to try it as soon as possible. you had given very nice review about this game here in this post. Thanks for this info.
Real men, real weapons, real countries with Aliens and Zombies in a game,sounds interesting.
Modern Warfare 2 is great experience, but I am a fan Modern Warfare 1. But zombies in reality based war game doesn’t gel well with the theme.
