Modern Warfare 2 Reviews

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 reviews are finally here and they are pretty much all positive. It looks like Infinity Ward kept the magic intact in the highly anticipated sequel.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Review – With real-world locations and bombastic set-pieces, Modern Warfare continues the thrill-ride experiences and multiplayer fun of its predecessor. http://www.1up.com/do/reviewPage?cId=3176856

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 We would’ve loved to have been able to tell you how fantastic Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 is before the game was released. But Activision had those embargo shackles tied tightly round our wrists until this morning. Sorry. http://www.computerandvideogames.com/article.php?id=226967?cid=OTC-RSS&attr=CVG-General-RSS

Modern Warfare 2 Review – It’s no surprise that we played most of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 with our mouths open. Activision and Infinity Ward’s soon to be critically acclaimed first person shooter unmercifully threw us from one fantastical mission to the next, with painstakingly designed environments crawling with bad guys that possess lightning quick reflexes, expert shooting skills and a nasty habit of throwing multiple grenades at the same time. Snipers lodged bullets into our skulls, hungry canines shredded our throats and explosions quickly removed us from battle. And yet we happily soldiered on, firing numerous weapons (the true stars of the show), rescuing hostages and doing some questionable things in an airport that made us cringe. It’s therefore fitting that Modern Warfare 2 appear on cans of Monster “Assault” Energy Drink, since that caffeine powered beverage perfectly fits the game’s feverish pace. http://www.gamedaily.com/games/modern-warfare-2/xbox-360/game-reviews/review/7927/2369/

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 – Infinity Ward returns with a follow-up to the critically acclaimed Modern Warfare that has already stirred up controversy over the now infamous airport level. But don’t let that distract you from the real discussion: is the game any good? Reviews Editor Tae K. Kim spent two days playing every available mode and his impressions follow. The game definitely has potential but its place in video game history will ultimately be decided by the fanatic online community who may take issue with some of the n00b friendly changes. http://www.gamepro.com/article/reviews/212892/call-of-duty-modern-warfare-2/

Review of Modern Warfare 2 – Modern Warfare 2 represents Infinity Ward’s first work since Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare raised the developer’s profile (and increased the bulge in its wallet) several orders of magnitude. But rather than taking a ton of huge big-budget risks, Modern Warfare 2’s multiplayer carefully builds upon the developer’s previous success in ways that will astound people who have spent the last two years learning every corner of every map in the previous game. Instead, the risky stuff is saved for the single-player campaign, which offers tightly packed thrills and rock-solid gameplay, though the narrative is so wild it can get exhausting. http://www.giantbomb.com/modern-warfare-2/61-24713/reviews/

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Review – Over the years the Call of Duty series has set the bar for immersive, action-packed, cinematic FPS gaming, and no matter what camp you’re from there’s no denying the franchise’s influence on the industry. When Infinity Ward moved from the classic World War II setting and blazed new ground with Modern Warfare we saw the first obvious split within the world of Call of Duty. The series dropped its historic focus, created a new cast of characters, and began treading on new ground by taking the first-person shooter genre to new locales, and pushing the boundaries of what military games are willing to show. With Modern Warfare 2, the sheer amount of hype has been practically inescapable, with preorders alone setting it up as one of the biggest selling games of all time, the addition of even more multiplayer modes and features, and the game’s new Special Operations mode has set Infinity Ward’s lastest up as the game to beat this year. http://pc.ign.com/articles/104/1043744p1.html
