Well said and i feel the same way but i think it was one the only ways not to go bankrupt again like with Halo 3, and i liked how you said miserable Francsice lol.
No its not possible since its publised by Microsoft there would be a huge lawsuit against 343 Industries unless Microsoft alows it which i highly douht.
In reach the lag last only for second and thats where the flying comes in.And when the lag lost longer that means theres a problem and in MW3 it happens too commonly.
No they took out more colors in MW3 and when you get killed it looks weird and when you die by an explosion its even weirder you fly like you fell out of a plane.
Actully theres lag in the game the lag sucks unlike in reach its fun when it lags like when your ghost goes light speed or when your warthog goes flying up.
