Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2

I’ve spent the last week or two on and off pretty much playing the new edition to the Call of Duty Series. Modern Warfare 2. It is an awesome game and much improved over the last COD installation from Infinity Ward. Going by the news it seems I’m not the only one that likes the game. I’ve heard that some online stores were taking 150 pre orders at its peak. However some don’t like the game due to some of its levels, Russian has banned the game due to a certain level containing and airport, terrorists and some dead civilians. While playing the level I did think that this was a little over the top more so because I read about how the levels may offend certain people. Its a game though although it could be real its not.

Single player I thought was very short. I took me 6 hours to complete, not all at once though. I’ve only playing COD4 and 5 and they seemed much longer. The story however following on from COD4 is very good and leaves it open to what I suspect will be COD8. Multi-player however is a little different to what I expected this was mainly because I got the game on XBOX rather than getting on Steam for playing on my computer. I find it quite annoying that you don’t get the options that you did on COD4 and 5. I like to be able to go on and play a certain map but on XBOX you can’t search game with a certain map unless of cause you are in a private/hosted match but my Internet connection isn’t fast enough to host.

They have took this system to the PC as well. No longer can you run and host your own dedicated server with custom settings or dedicated level rotation. This is the main reason I did not get it on the PC.

The online Multi-player on the whole is awesome too. Infinity Ward has done it again and created an awesome game.
