Lives up to expectations

I hyped about this game for monthes and I am glad to say it lives up to my expectations. I have finished the campaign and I am sucked into the multiplayer right now.

The campaign was on the short side, it should take you about 6-9 hours on regular difficulty. But it was so awesome I don't mind at all. You get to do everything: Stealth, Riding Snowmobiles, Ride a boat, and even defend the White House. The ending was rather dissapointing, but I guess it will be resolved in a sequel. I am also dissapointed that there is no Co-Op Campaign, but since you can team up in Spec Ops, it doesn't bother me that much.

I have not spent too much time on Special Ops; Mainly because they don't compare to the multiplayer and campaign. I suggest doing Co-Op with a friend because some of them can be challenging.

The Multiplayer is where MW2 really shines. There are so many large maps, you get to customize so much, and there are so many modes. You won't get bored of it for monthes, maybe until the next Call of Duty.

This game is worth getting If you have an X-Box or PS3.

For The 360

I pop into a game, and find the same generic console FPS recipe was used. Nothing major. But I expected more. I spent a couple of hours playing this on my 360 and ended up being disappointed. As such, I wont be doing an in-depth review, rather, I will spend my time on the PC review.

Isn't as good as I thought

This was a pretty good game except for the shortness of the campaign which could have been longer. Also there is no blind fire mechanics in this game like most shooters now a days. All and All good game but I don't think it's worth paying for the special edition or the prestige edition.

Waited in line for 3 hours for this?

Yes, I was like many last night who waited at Wal-marts, Gamestops and anywhere else that was selling this game. Now the question is was the fruit worth the labor? The answer is YES. Although it is similar to CoD4, it is also way different. The graphics are out of this world. When the chickens look real and when you shoot them feathers fly, you have my vote. Since I only played the multiplayer, I have no idea how campaign mode is. But the maps are huge. I've played every map almost twice now and learn something new everytime. You can jump onto and go into just about everything. Killstreaks.......What else can you say? When you get one you feel on top of the world and in this one even getting the UAV makes you feel like you have accomplished something. Yes I said the UAV. I'm not going to ruin the surprise of the different Killstreaks sorry. With alot more guns and combinations you can put together, the upgrades of perks and so much more to unlock and to come, you can only wonder how many times you can prestiege until your maxed? The world may never know. But know this....... Becoming a zombie may be in your future. Because you WILL NOT want to put the controller down. Whether it be Xbox360 or PS3. Enoy!!!
