Infinity Ward seem to have full control when it comes to Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2's development.

In a recent interview with OXM, Robert Bowling say's that the game was kept under wraps until it was deep into the development process.

"We know the game we want to make, and especially with Modern Warfare 2, we didn't even show Activision the game until very much later in the development process. Because we want to stay focused, really the only opinion we care about is what our fans think."

Another thing he says, is that Infinity Ward have had direct communication with fans of the popular series due to social networking.

"So that's why very early on, we got in touch with our fans via Twitter and Facebook and said 'what's the one thing you wanted to see in the game?'"

"So we got all that feedback and later on we asked a few more questions, and as we're designing, we have all these boards in the office that we can gut check ourselves and say, 'this is what they'd like to see, this is what we have planned and this is what we already have, and let's try to get those more in synch.'"

"That's really what's important, our relationship with us and our fans, and not so much us and Activision, or us and retailers or anything like that."

It seems Infinity Ward really care about the development of what is surely going to be the biggest game releasing on HD platforms this year.

Modern Warfare 2 will be releasing Worldwide, 10th November.
