Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Review

The game that everyone was waiting for! That's the easiest way to describe Modern Warfare 2. Read on for more info on the game.

Storyline:
MW2's storyline focuses on 2 characters that you can play as. One character from the Army Rangers (Sergeant Ramirez) and another from Task Force 141 (Roach, and later, Captain MacTavish). The storyline is very action-packed with a lot of plot twists. But, the game seems too short. Gameplay:
The gameplay of MW2 is extremely fun, for a lack of a better word. From the moment you pick up the controller, you feel like you've been playing for years. Your partner CPU characters are very responsive and work well with you. Spec Ops is another thing to look forward to. Spec Ops focuses in being able to play various missions via splitscreen or solo. But by far, Multiplayer takes the cake. With immense customizability and numerous killstreaks, you never have to play under the same setup for any two games. Multiplayer is very rewarding, allowing you to unlock perks, weapons, killstreaks, badges, titles, and even weapon camo. 3rd person mode is an added bonus for multiplayer.
Weapons and Vehicles:
The vehicle sequences in campaign are also very intriguing, and no two of them are alike. You control a Humvee, a snowmobile, an armed Stryker, Predator Missiles, and many other vehicles throughout the course of the game. On Multiplayer, the only vehicles you can control are killstreaks, and occasionally, turrets. Weapons are extremely responsive and realistic on both modes of gameplay.

The Verdict:
MW2 is an amazing game for players of all skill levels. Campaign feels short, but Spec Ops and Multiplayer make up for it, and then some. If you are looking for a fun FPS, this is the game for you. Every Xbox 360 or PS3 owner should own this game.
