Yes I'm the author and I have a 2.85 KDR on Modern Warfare 2.. Not exactly bad. Of course there is luck in FPS'. Ever been killed by someone who spawns, looks up and throws a grenade over a roof only for it to land right by your feet? That isn't skill, that is luck.
Also, please read the article before commenting...
Its not necessarily a "childish and dumbed down shooter", in my opinion the problem is some of the things included, E.G. painkiller, noob tube set ups and non-dedicated servers but its mainly the majority of the population. The 60% of ten year olds which compose most of the players are the people that exploit many of the stupid things.
So the likes of Cosplay and the constant top ten lists are just brilliant pieces of Videogame Journalism?
Try reading the article before commenting, it is clearly talking about the cause of Gamer Rage and asking what gamers think not just "I threw a tantrem".

Why do you assume that the author of the artice is bad at the game? The deaths were all bad luck and nothing he could have done would have changed them.
the A.I. for the survivors was down right stupid. It was never the fact that some of them got scared it was that they would walk into and off of things as well as into huge crowds of Zombies without so much as a hint of resistance.
The voice acting was incredibly stale... They all sounded like Capcom got a couple of game devs to record it after forgetting to hire anyone even remotely professional. Ever seen the 'Tranquil' in Dragon Age: Origins?
