To clarify my review scores (they're "rough" scores, meaning it's not supposed to be some sort of percentage or anything):
1 or lower = Terrible. Avoid at all costs.
1.5 = Has a few redeeming qualities, but still sucks and should be avoided.
2 = Mediocre (Sub-par). You'll probably want to avoid this one.
2.5 = Underwhelming, but playable.
3 = Average. Worth playing, but probably not at full price.
3.5 = Good, but has issues.
4 = Excellent, but has a few problems that could probably be fixed through patching.
4.5 = Exceptional. Better than 4 but still has a few problems that could be ironed out.
5 = Outstanding. Stuff in this category is pretty much "must own."

Why notthing about how un ballanced the multiplayer is?

[DWTerminator]

The balancing issues are pretty easy to work around, and at the time of this review they weren't very apparent (it was only a few days after the game was released, after all).

Nice review. MW2 was the worst COD ever made. Initially u may find it find but after a while, u will be constantly pissed off. Beside lack of dedi servers, game balance was horrible. Guns generally lacking recoil and sway (except a few like f2000, ak47, mp5k), G18 akimbo, commando, OMA tubing, SP being the staple perk and last but not least, deathstreaks was a dumb idea.

[DWTerminator]

Well, glad you liked the review, but the balancing issues didn't hold a candle to the IWNet problems. I'm not really surprised they didn't fix them though. Infinity Ward's never really been good at fixing balancing problems.

Worst CoD though? No. Definitely not. That would be CoD3, but only because it was given 8 months to be made from the ground up. Treyarch's been getting better and better though, so I hope Black Ops is as good as it looks to be.

I dont like CoD much im more of a sci-fi shooter myself... i.e UNREAL now thats an FPS game!

[DWTerminator]

Call of Duty is a different style of shooter than Unreal, but both are excellent games (well... CoD3 and MW2 *should be* anyway... but there's just too much bringing them down).

6/5 stars

Finally I found someone who agrees with me, MW2 is over rated.

[LeShorte]

Great review! Totally agree.

@Overtime29 the game is not great as it used to be. With MW2, my friends only talked about it for about a week, then the fact that the game isnt actually that great sunk in, as well as the fact that the game is just as glitched, if not worse than MW1.
