Call of Duty 6 Modern Warfare 2 Review

I know this is completely random but hey sometimes you have to be! I LOVE this game!

Review is written by - ME!

Where do you start with a game like this!


Single player:

The single payer campaign is absolutely amazing. From the very first moment of the game to the last it is a white knuckle ride! The graphics are gorgeous and there are multiple set pieces all over the place! Most games can claim 1 or 2 set peices that make the game and make you want to play it for that. This game has atleast one on each level! From manning a predator drone missile, to driving on the back of a truck with a minigun, and then racing down a mountain on a skimobile the action is non stop start to finish!



This game is really aimed at adults due to one level. In fairness the game does warn you at the start and you do have the option to skip that particular level if you like, but I found it fine - after all its only a game! Sound from the game is in full 5.1 surround sound so if you have the set up make the most of it!

After you have finished the single player campaign there is a mode called Spec-Ops. This is more a test of skill and uses some familiar sites from the game to say - kill 100 enemies before dying, or last 5 minutes until you are rescued and this mode is equally as entertaining as the single payer campaign.

Multiplayer:

This is the single best multiplayer experience online at the moment. There are several game modes ranging from free for all (a deathmatch all vs all) to headquarters (your team has to capture a location and keep if for a set time), capture the flag, domination - the list goes on and on!

You start at level one and with each kil you gain XP. You need say 500XP points to level to level 1, then maybe 750 to level 2, and the list goes on all the way until level 70. As you progress through the levels you unlock new guns and some new skills along the way which make this very addictive as you really want to get to level 70 ASAP. Then remember earlier in the review I said it was almost limitless - well it takes approximately 50 hours of gameplay to get to level 70. After you complete this level you get the option to prestige. This means start all over again at level 0! Yes I said it! You can do this 10 times to get all of the relevant medals (each level has its own medal, and then each prestige level has its own ones too). So you are looking at 500+ hours to fully complete multiplayer!



Overall conclusion:

This is a game not to be missed! I would strongly recommend it!
