replynot really impressive graphic wise... but then again, I'm a graphic whore... don't kill me in the comments please...

A good art direction style in terms of design or color that suits the universe the game is playing in, or in realistic games, extremely sharp textures and the good visualisation of materials like they are in real world, like fabric, wood, carbon,etc... and believable physics...
I'm not saying this looks bad, but I think (and now i will get all the console owners on my ass) that todays hardware can achieve better graphics than this, certainly when I'm thinking about the budget and talent at infinity ward...-
Today's hardware?
Today's hardware is still the 360 and PS3. Because no one is going to do another Crysis if no one buys it. And I don't care about the reasons (piracy, cost, install base, etc), it's just simple economics. We don't get any more AAA exclusives or games pushing the envelope. I hate it as much as you, but now that consoles have reached a level of fidelity most people consider to be "good enough", they will remain the lead platforms. And that means we're stuck with these graphics for at least another couple of years.-
Yeah, I don't expect any PC games to push graphics harder than Crysis did for several years still to come. Most titles are backing off of that level of graphics demand on PC hardware simply because of the trends in the PC market towards notebooks, lower power requirements, and lower price tags.

For a game running 60fpx on Xbox360, this looks damn pretty.
Yeah it could look better if it was targeted at high end pcs, but that's not where the money is. =(

Yeah, COD4 still stands up pretty well in terms of graphics. With COD4 they actually made the graphics look better than they did in COD2, all while simplifying the geometry and reducing the texture load particularly in the skybox of the levels. If you look into the distance of COD4 levels the skybox enclosing the level is actually very fuzzy and low res, but it actually enhances the look of the game because it focuses the attention on the near-field geometry and textures of the level. It's like in a movie, shots are deliberately set up to make the background kind of blurry so that less time and effort have to be spent building extremely detailed sets.

Higher rez version : http://www.gametrailers.com/video/multiplayer-trailer-modern-warfare/53382
Gfx are improved over MW1 imo
Many new toys, even better.
Maybe I'm just a biased fps junkie.... but for a sequel to a game as big as it was, this looks pretty damn good.

I'm a graphics whore too and I thought this looked pretty badass. Keep in mind it's multiplayer, running at a solid 60 fps it looks like, which is RARE if not otherwise unseen on consoles.
-
they say 60 fps but it's not even rendering at 720p natively (well..COD4 and WAW wasn't)
I hope that changes..because i hate this 0.5 HD era we're in. -
IMHO maintaining 60 FPS for an FPS is worth it even if some pixel resolution and texture quality has to be sacrificed.

I think the graphics look good - they are fluent AND look pleasing to the eye.
The problem I've always had with CoD (4/WaW) graphics praise, is that the engines themselves aren't really working very hard. The doors are non-interactive and the levels are linear to the point of being on rails, it's Virtua Cop with strafe keys.
Sure, it looks pretty damn good, but it isn't actually /doing anything/.
It is, however, doing what it has to.
