This is a great game with a awsome story line. Online play is pretty sweet when you play with your friends. The maps are also cool for online play and so are the weapons. The only suggestion i have is to not over play if you do it will get boring i found that out the hard way. The only reason that i rated it a 4 star is that there are WAY TO MANY online glitches.
