Manufacturer's Description

The call of duty needs answering once again, as the blockbusting first person shooter series returns to the modern day. A direct sequel to Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, you now play new character Sgt Gary "Roach" Sanderson. Your commander is "Soap" from the first game as you join a multinational anti-terrorist squad out to stop Russian ultra nationalists.

Watch your squad grow from inexperienced rookies to veteran warriors
A snowmobile race is just one of the new vehicle sections
Modern Warfare 2 is a direct sequel to Call of Duty 4
You'll journey all around the world in the fight against terrorism

The story mode features an even more varied series of locales than before, including a snowbound mission that starts with a daredevil mountain climb and ends with a high speed snowmobile chase as you make your escape. With other levels set in Afghanistan, Rio de Janeiro and even underwater this has more action than a dozen Hollywood blockbusters.

But that's just the single player mode - the multiplayer is even more ground-breaking than before, with new co-op options and even more rewards and perks for competitive play.

Key Features
  • Call of Warfare - Stunning cinematic action, including new underwater missions, new gadgets such as the motion detector and new vehicles including snowmobiles and more.
  • Rough guide - Massive globe-spanning adventure sees you travelling to the deserts of Afghanistan, the slums of Rio de Janerio and the wilderness of Russia.
  • Bigger world - New larger levels allow you to tackle missions however you want: will you try a frontal assault or a more stealthy approach from another angle?
  • Special co-op - New Special Ops mode will introduce two player co-operative play for the first time, in a series of non-story missions.
  • Be the best - Competitive multiplayer is even bigger and better than before, with new kill streak rewards that unlock everything from supply drops to a AC-130 gunship attack.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Game But Still Overrated, 23 Nov 2009
By D. Low - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 (Xbox 360) (Video Game)
Its been two weeks now since I picked up Modern Warfare 2 and my opinion of the game has definately changed from my first week of play. Had I reviewed the game days after I got it my review would be filled with gushing praise for the incredibly exciting action packed campaign and the subtle alterations to the already classic multiplayer.
However a little more time with it and the cracks are definately beginning to show.

The single player campaign is great fun and although a little short at 6 hours every second is packed with edge of the seat action and it never drags. Having completed the previous COD4 on Veteran I decided to try the same with MW2. Its incredibly easy and nowhere near the challenge of its predecessor and definitley a dissapointment in this respect.

As good as the single player is the storyline and some of the situations are ridiculous. Now I'm not saying COD4 was realistic (I've never fought in a war I wont pretend to know), but it was believable, sometimes scarily so as in the Death From Above and All Ghillied Up missions. There is nothing here that ever touches the stark drama of those levels. If COD4 could be compared to a film like Black Hawk Down then MW2 is more akin to Michael Bay directing James Bond. These are minor complaints though of an overall fantastic campaign.

The biggest problem I have is with the multiplayer. The new killstreak rewards, the incredibly large maps and the new overpowering weapons and attachments have ruined the perfect balance of COD4. The levels favour long range weapons and have made running and gunning almost impossible. Each map has hundreds of hiding places that favour snipers(who I dont mind) and campers(who shall have a special place in hell just for them). Where once the game was simply about learning the maps, being cunning, second guessing the ememy and generally being a good shot, the Killstreak Rewards have turned it into a near constant parade of choppers, jets and crouching in corners with briefcase laptops.

The simple pleasure of the hunt and being hunted is gone. In general the game is geared towards the newcomer as much as the veteran and has simply taken away the need for the kind of skill that used to win matches. I've played it for a total of 24 hours so its not just a case of me not being used to the changes. The frustration it causes has ended that need for "just one more match".

Overall I think taken on its own merits Modern Warfare 2 is a great game, but it definately sits in the shadow of its predecessor.

1.0 out of 5 stars Great campaign, ok story, lousy multiplayer, 21 July 2010
Fun:3.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 (Xbox 360) (Video Game)
Modern warefare 2 the game that likes to burn a hole in your pocket.

Overpriced and overrated this game embodies all of the glorious aspects that a games distributer would want before release popular, visually stunning great gameplay a cash cow for everyone involved in its release. How is it you ask that I hate this game?
well.....

Single Player
The single player is short but definately emersive and has a lot of atmosphere which is the only thing going for it(you will definately feel a sense of de javu when playing the story as some of the missions come close to the film the rock Nicolas Cage Sean Connery) however the storyline is weak at best in comparison to the story from MW1 which was a lot better ( for those of you who played it, it'd be like comparing Bioshock 2 storyline with Bioshock 1's) 3/10 story 8/10 fun

Multiplayer
The multiplayer is extremely over the top this doesn't add to the experience and makes it feel cheap and arcadey. The blood that comes up on screen looks more like jelly, there are no vehicles (i do not count being in a chopper gunner for 60 seconds as a vehicle) and on the whole, the mulitplayer is chaotic and frustrating I wouldn't recommend this to anyone who wants a realistic Modern Warfare shooter if thats what you want try BFBC2. Also there are so many hackers out there you dont have a clue who is or who isn't hacking, I'm talking about free 10th prestige, aim bot, super fast, free ac130s the full 9 yards. I actually know people who sell infections (gets you into the hackers lobby where you recieve free 10th prestige, aim bot etc) to other players for MS points, how pointless is this? the only reason you are good at the game is because you cheat so whats the point in playing?? 2/10

Summary
COD used to pride itself on its realism and although this is a sequel its somehow managed to take a step back instead of forwards. The only good thing about this game is you'll never be short of people to play with this game is world wide, but as previously stated you'll never know if everyone is playing fair or not.

General
Hosting is a redundant way of playing games online and all future xbox 360 games should be played on servers to avoid lag and feedback tampering(if you ever played Gears2 when it first came out because of the hosting system it ruined the game and made online play virtually impossible), I suspect that they are deliberately avoiding applying servers to online games to cut costs. Also Microsoft needs to deal with the hackers, consoles used to be great because cheats could'nt screw with the system and after playin the latest consoles its given me food for thought Pc has cheaper games, secured and cracked servers I could download games for free including all content FOR FREE something which the consoles lack and game manufacturers now are deliberately leaving stuff out of their games just so they can sell it on marketplace 1 month later. Seriously wanna save money get one up on the big companies???? buy all the parts individually and build you're own pc.

4.0 out of 5 stars Modern Warfare 2 - Good but ..., 8 Jun 2010
By A. Hussain - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 (Xbox 360) (Video Game)
Like the title suggests, this game is very good however the on line component is so unbalanced it makes it almost not worth bothering with, even though the on line play is what the games hook is. Honestly I think new buyers would be better off purchasing modern warfare 1 which is far better and if they like that then they should try this.

Overall this is a good game in all but there are better on line shooters like the original modern warfare and battlefield bad company 2.
