    Modern Warfare 2 is undoubtedly the single biggest release this year; not only in gaming but in entertainment, period. It delivers in a lot of areas; it has a campaign marinated in grandeur (even if it is to short) and a deep, engaging multiplayer facet (even if it is littered with connectivity issues). So it's not without its problems, no-one is claiming it's perfect. But as a follow-up to 2007's smash, Call of Duty 4, it progresses in nearly every way. Read more

    • an epic, jaw-dropping ride, Zimmer's score is terrific, when green, online is the best, special ops mode is entertaining, stunning in HD
    • no local game search is just awful..., campaign is far too short, minor plot holes in the story, veteran just isn't hard enough

    If you're looking for some campaign-style action unburdened by any sort of plot, then Special Ops is the place to go. The timed missions are campaign excerpts from Modern Warfare 2 and Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare that you can play solo or with a friend, either split-screen or online. Read more

    • Intense, action-packed campaign, Engaging cooperative missions, Richer, deeper, more rewarding competitive multiplayer.
    • Campaign is short, Plot is muddled and inelegant.

    Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 is awesome graphically, and in its playability and replay value (with multiplayer in mind). But I am sorry to say that parts of it are way overdone. Time spent on those parts, like all the pretty badges and tags, could have been better spent extending the storyline and putting some length into the campaign. Well worth the purchase for the Multiplayer element, as was COD4:MW. Read more

    • Multiplayer: this game wouldn't sell without it. Some great new weapons, perks and killstreak rewards - Great sound when played thru your home theatre. A few storyline...
    • Painfully short Campaign Mode - Not sure if Spec Ops was really required - Multiplayer connection problems - A few glitches in Multiplayer... can be expected though as...
