Best game I have ever bought. The online play is a lot of fun and all of the attachment upgrades is a great feature compared to COD 4: Modern Warefare. If you like shooting games - this game is defnitely for you!!!
What's great about it: Fun to play online with friends, special ops is awesome. Campaign is fairly difficult
What's not so great: Campaign is quite short for such a good game.

Definitely better than all the other CoD games. The campaign picked up right where it left off and is very fun. Although somewhat short. Multiplayer is great with awesome new guns, perks, and customizable kill streaks. With only the terrible re-spawn points and minor glitches getting in the way. And Spec Ops is a huge step up from zombies, which was pretty fun. But with Spec Ops there's more things to do and has more of a point to it.
The 'No Russian" mission seems to be making this game worse for some people. Sure it's wrong to kill civilians in a game. But it is a major part in the storyline making sense... and if you don't like it just skip it!!!
What's great about it: Just about everything
What's not so great: Re-Spawns, People complaining about the 'No Russian Mission'.

If you loved the first MW then you will feel right at home with MW2, same game mechanics but extra tid bits to justify calling it a sequel. I'm not going to go into single player because the beef of this game is in multi-player.
HUD The first change you will notice when playing MP is there is a lot of flashing points and kill names when you score a kill, which makes the game feel more arcadey but I welcomed this change.
WEAPONS You can level up almost any weapon in the game... I was hoping to level up the knife and make it a katana blade, let's hope they add that in MW3 hahaha. There aren't many returning weapons from MW1 but that's good since this is a sequel, you will enjoy finding out the details of each weapon.
MAPS I noticed that the maps do not taylor to run-n-gun twitchy gun fights, which is good because I'm almost 30 and can't hang with the 13 year old gun-slingers now-a-days. There are a lot of corners and different levels where your enemies can shoot you from, so you will need a little more patience this time around
KILL STREAKS / DEATH STREAKS (NEW) This was a big change, instead of the standard set of kill streak rewards from MW1 (UAV, Air strike, Helicopter) there is a whole heck of a lot to choose from, but you can only bring 3 kill streak rewards to a match. Death streaks are when you die multiple time without scoring a kill, from my experieince none of the death streaks weren't that great but they do help. Matrydom which was a perk in MW1 is now a deathstreak reward, that was the only useful one.
What's great about it: Multi-Player will keep you hooked
What's not so great: Single player story is confusing
