Way Overrated

Review Date: September 4, 2010

Reviewer: Keyboard Warrior,

Good game but way overrated, not as groundbreaking as COD4, and not as good as Battlefield Bad Company 2 in my opinion....and the multiplayer is plagued by annoying little brats and spoilt pre-pubescent angry little teenagers which can seriously affect your enjoyment of the game, C'mon I mean shouldn't they be playing on their Space Hoppers, reading Harry Potter or doing their homework or something, .. its an 18 certificate game so where are the parents for goodnes sakes..!!

utstanding game but...,

Review Date: September 3, 2010

Reviewer: Jena Malone,

The graphics in this game are awesome. Some of the best I have seen in a game. If you are a big online multiplayer (XBOX Live), they still have some of the same issues as they had before that make it frustrating to play. (ie. respawning near or in front of enemy units, guns that take too many shots at close range to kill, and more.) The campaing is fun. But, I think once I am finished, I'll be back to playing the multiplayer on COD:WAW.

Real Enough

Review Date: August 30, 2010

Reviewer: Mr. J. F. Clarke, England

This comes from someone who played Halo franchise first. - I understand why this is the alternative.

Yes, there is good reason as to why the Call of duty series is a competitor to Halo, many reasons in fact. Its just the 'fan boy' camaraderie that wee's a little bit on the image of both titles. Both eager to detest the other.

COD:MW2 is realistic. At least, compared to other 1st person shooters, featuring a wide array of actual weapons used today in warfare and no doubt sound like the real deal (probably). The campaign is not your average story due to its switching of characters, various landscapes and areas, something overlooked by most games today glamorising an invincible warrior capable of taking not just several bullets and explosions to the face but being lucky enough to avoid the eventual truth that people kill and get killed. Make the connections where you like, my point is that this game genuinely is far more realistic than some of the games on the market. Do we play games for realism? not necessarily, some try to escape it but others rely on it. Sure you'd have to be wearing a butt load of Kevlar and be one lucky s.o.b to take several rounds from an AK47 and live, sure not all troops get the insane amount of air support shown nor the weapons and funding, but its those kitsch additions that can make this game special, enjoyable to say the least. That and the plot is basically USA vs. USSR.

Sounds pretty awful when you hear that you have to be Americans and fight the Russians. Lucky for us all, that's hardly the case considering the U.S is pretty much getting rinsed throughout the game. That and there is a nice touch (if rare) of hearing the odd accent of the British. We get enough of the bold & brash American commando linguistics in films, thank you very much.

Special Ops is a very welcome game mode, replaying some of the games high points with the option to play with friends. There is some real fun to be had sniping countless enemies with the cover of a snowy forest, atop a well equipped tower or wherever the hell you like really. Snow mobile races are usually a laugh too, hurtling down a mountain weaving in and out of forested wilderness. However, if you'd rather just burn through countless clips of ammo, fighting your way through hordes of soldiers then no fear, this game caters. The downsides are of course, online multiplayer with numerous screaming/swearing children from the U.S - mute them - then its as addictive as halo3. Another is the campaign is too short with roughly 10-15 hours of a first time play through on regular difficulty. If you're going to be a bit harsh, you could say the fighting is bias considering the enemies can cover efficiently, merely raise a gun to fire without exposing themselves to gunfire, whereas you must hope you didn't overdo it on the ol' analogue stick. A minimal negative but still questionable.

So, top notch action - check
quality multiplayer modes - check
over the top weaponry and slow mo - double check
perfection? - "close, but no cigar" (Don Corneo, perverted fat man, wall market)

This game must be good. Since I bought it for my son I havent seen him. It's been a warm summer and he has is brilliant white and has lost weight.

Reviewer: jemeel el,

I first thought that this game would be just like any other first person war game... But it's with no doubt my favourite game of all ..the online feature is very entertaining and there's lots of competition !
There's also an ofline multiplayer split screen mode with lots of missons and co-op modes.
there's just too much to talk about for this game,my advice..buy it ! you wont regreat it !
