As with all of the earlier Call of Duty games, the campaign is an intense,heartpounding experience all the way through. Modern Warfare 2 campaign also seems to give the player many more of those epic cliffhanger moments (literally in one instance). Veteran mode seemed to be slighlty easier than the first Modern Warfare and,thankfully, a lot less frustrating than the World at War campaign on veteran. Special Ops,the new co-op mode, is a nice addition. Though I would say it falls short of what it could have been,especially since the campaign cannot be played on co-op, there is still plenty of satisfaction in playing and completing it. The online multiplayer setup is amazing,in that there is so much new stuff, such as new perks,choosing your own killstreak rewards,a lot more attachments, and a throwing knife. There is a server problem which may cause "subtle" lag for some people. What I mean by this is that many times you may die in what seems like an impossible way and assume maybe someone is cheating,but when observing the killcam it seems like the other player is several seconds ahead of you in the game.(For example: you are about to round a corner,but haven't yet,and then suddenly die through the wall,then watch the killcam to see yourself actually round the corner and stay in the open for a couple of seconds. If you can change your NAT type to open,then these occurrences don't happen nearly as often,I would even say rarely.For those that cannot change their NAT type,there is Team Deathmatch Express,which will pair the player with others that share a similar connection.The downside of this is that you are limited to one gametype and you must endure one of the worst ideas in gaming history: in order to play half of the gametypes,including hardcore and regular deathmatch, you cannot be in party chat.In fact if you are,a menu will pop up prompting you to switch to game chat. If you decline you cannot play that game type.Overall the game is great,definitely worth buying,but do not be surprised if you encounter strange happenings in multiplayer.
What's great about it: The campaign is incredible. It is filled with even more insanely epic parts than the previous Call of Duty games.
What's not so great: There was no co-op for the campaign and the multiplayer servers seem to have a problem.
I would recommend this to a friend!
