Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Review (360/PS3)

[Dlr64]

More games should have more than 2 player local co op

Fun game, a little frustrating with people spend 24/7 on this game... I'm only a level 51, but I don't care about my stats or anything. I play this game to play it. Not to care what others think about me or how well I'm compare to a hacked leader board system, and no lifers

this is the greatest online shooter ever

[SuperNintendoCrew21]

I got Modern Warfare Rflex for Wii and I keep getting killed by P60's in Wi-Fi..

I HATE THAT GUN ;)

I can't wait to unlock it though! Great game.

really enjoyed this game but i didnt get to into the online because im a halo freak

[jlchambers82]

I agree....its a tech masterpiece on play mechanics...I really thought that Modern Warfare 2 would only be a slight improvement but I was blown away with the attention to detail

[nintendonick]

Wheres the multiplayer footage, ya jerk!?!?!?!

lol jk

The only fps that has better controls than this for me is bioshock

[heoTheo]

I really like the game.. and I'm a weekend gamer.. I like the multiplayer, I picked it pretty fast up what maps and what stuff I need. If you play the game for more the 20 hours.. then you get a feeling what you need. but yeah, noobs not apply. I joust to be a clan gamer, for COD2 and some other games.. So I'm really into the first person shooters.

Nice review. The one thing I do like about these fps games is that the more difficult the setting you play on, the more strategic everything becomes. On easy or normal, you can just run threw slews of enemies without a thought, but on veteran (especially later spec ops) you can't move an inch without a plan of attack.

AWSOME JOB BETER THAN classic game rooms review

[RightAsWrong]

I know what you mean Craig. Fantastic game imo, but I could care less about the storyline - its just fun, and its difficult to beat that.

[Gamerpigeon]

this is a superb review , would love to see ALOT ALOT more of these !

[Xpert74]

I recently played the first Modern Warfare and liked the shooting mechanics and such, but I had the same complaint about how you sometimes have to rush forward past enemies in order to proceed to the next checkpoint, rather than shooting them all down. I also didn't really care about the characters or story at all. I'm not sure I want to play more of the same, which is a shame since I like the core shooting mechanics... when I'm actually supposed to be shooting :p

Maybe I've just been de-sensitized by playing so many M rated games but to me the No Russian mission wasn't gratuitously violent in my opinion, I've definitely seen worse in games.

Just look at all the dead bodies on the floor in No Russian, 95 percent of them have the exact same face and/or clothes.

The fact is, people do not buy games based on their level of violence to fuel their supposed "aggressive tendencies" and that is something people like Jack Thompson will never understand.

[tvandlust]

I agree with that, but I also think younger gamers play up their interest violence too much, which gives the impression that the game is impacting them more than it is. Does that make sense? Like, they'll be laughing and shouting about how cool it was to snipe someone's face. And usually they're probably well-adjusted kids. They just get super excited about violence for some reason, which isn't harming anyone, but worries their parents. I guess.

Either way, Thompson sucks. :)

[danman55555]

I agree with you 100% on the "choke points" gripe. Takedown on Veteran was just straight-up bullshit.

[broken1394]

I think this is a franchise at it's peak... Special op's is my favourite element of the game. Campaign is solid.. like that you can do it in 7hrs, It doesn't out stay it's welcome. Also it's good to just finish a game!! Online is just totally brutal... the copters kinda get annoying!!!! I rate it highly... Presentation awesome! Controls perfect. Interesting to see your take on it Craig & I felt it somehow your brave to review it now at this later date!!! It's a well covered game.

[tvandlust]

Yeah, I liked the length too. Nice 7-8 hours or so, get that out of your system, and then hope online to get your replay value there. Perfect, in my opinion.

Great Review man! If only I could use that capture card that we were talking about on Twitter! =( lol
