I am much more frightened by the bald/mullet man that is possibly related to the bald/mullet character from the Rocky Horror Picture Show.

Negative good sir, don't play video games anymore, I view it as waste of time. I am interested in its application in a close urban environment.

How many rounds can you carry?
What do you do when a friendly is adjacent to the desired target?
What do you do if your opponent is about to engage you from more than 50 meters?
Since you are not even in the military yet, and this is not an issue weapon, why do you care?

It should be noted that the entire male population of our barracks (and probably the army) are currently burning the midnight oil playing this game.
Exaggeration maybe, but not by much.

Being in CA, you might have a better chance of getting a Saiga than the AA-12.

This is why you keep a sidearm and train to shoot from a low position - any round that goes through and through will have a higher chance of taking a trajectory over the crowd's heads and not into them.
I agree - very few practical applications for this shotgun - I don't even think it has a high CDI factor (CDI=Chicks Dig It.)

It's actually the third scene I think (if you're referring to the controversial airport scene) and no, I don't think anybody is skipping it. It does an important part in moving the plot forward. Here is footage of the whole scene, about 8 minutes.

It's worth watching, especially the end if you want to understand why it was in the game.

@ Dozer - Yeah, this is one of the things IW is taking a lot of heat for.
Sorry to disagree, but this does nothing to move the story forward. It's gratuitous bullshit that has no bearing on the game, let alone the story. And yes, I've followed this series from the begining, including all things related to MW2.

I completely agree it really is not needed in the game, especially as a playable level. At the start of the game there is some warning like "there is a level that could offend you, do you want to play it," but I never expected anything like that. When the level started I tried to shoot the bad guys and the game ends immediately, they should have at least giving you the option.
