Amazon.com Product Description

Modern Warfare 2 is a first-person tactical shooter and the sixth entry in the popular Call of Duty series. True to its name and following the lead of its predecessor, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, it places players in modern combat settings, as opposed to the WWII environments of the earlier Call of Duty games. This modern approach brings with it new weapons, action and options. Coupled with a variety of gameplay modes including single player, multiplayer and the co-op Special Ops Mode, it is destined to be one of the most popular games of 2009 and a worthy addition to the Call of Duty series.

Story
The storyline of Modern Warfare 2 picks up where the events of Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare left off. The ultranationalist Russian leader Zakhaev has been eliminated, but it seems that his lieutenant, Vladimir Makarov, is an even bigger danger. Having made a successful play for power, Intel indicates that he is extending the reach of his influence well beyond the borders of Mother Russia, causing a stir in the international community and prompting the involvement of Task Force 141. Task Force 141 is an elite multinational unit made up of Navy Seals, Delta Force operatives, British SAS and CIA. In the single player campaign you are Sergeant Gary "Roach" Sanderson, with the hero of Call of Duty 4, "Soap" MacTavish, promoted to Captain, making an appearance as an NPC (non-player character) and your commanding officer. The elimination of Makarov and his underlings at any cost is your number one priority, regardless where the fight occurs.

Gameplay
The latest release in arguably the most successful tactical first-person shooter franchise of all-time, gameplay in Modern Warfare 2 follows the same winning and time-tested structure of earlier games in the series. In the single player campaign players are aided by AI squad members as they take on a series of missions aimed at eliminating Ultranationalist forces. Each mission is built around a particular objective, with players utilizing some level of guidance from NPC characters, including "Soap" MacTavish, and aided in navigation by the game's heads up display (HUD). Along the way players will be able to utilize a wide variety of weaponry and and vehicles, as well as be able to customize weapons with gadgets attached to them.

Also, just as in previous games in the series, Modern Warfare 2 is heavily focused on multiplayer gameplay. The different multiplayer modes, available both in local play and online, contain plenty of customization options and revolve around different strategies ranging from the every man for himself action of "Free-for All," the classic team-based fun of "Capture the Flag and the tactical, team-oriented action of "Search and Destroy," just to name a few. Multiplayer modes also feature the "Perk" System that players may be familiar with from earlier in the franchise. Through this system players gain additional abilities, weapons and benefits as they gain experience in combat. This can be done by leveling up, but another important way way is through "kill streaks," the number of enemies eliminated in succession. These are available beginning with three kills and include the ability to call for supply drops, predator missile strikes, helicopter gunships and many more. Players have the ability to customize in advance which perks will be available at each number and can even gauge their progress towards each at the touch of a button. With an eye towards not making the game too hard for new players the game also features help to players experiencing "death streaks," multiple consecutive deaths in multiplayer matches.

Special Ops Co-op Mode
Along with a single player mode and multiple multiplayer modes, Modern Warfare 2 also features an unique third main play option, Special Ops mode. Available both online and in local play, Special Ops Mode is designed to provide a distinct time-based play option, featuring special scenarios not found in other modes in the game and lots of enemies to take on. This mode can be played either alone or with a friend, again either locally or online, with local co-op play including split-screen functionality.

Key Game Features

  • Challenging Multiplayer ModesModern Warfare 2 will contain a wealth of multiplayer modes including: the every man for himself action of "Free-for All," the classic team-based fun of "Capture the Flag and the tactical, team-oriented action of "Search and Destroy."
  • Improved AI Enemies – Improved artificial intelligence now allows enemies to attack from virtually any direction as players respawn into the game adding additional challenges.

5.0 out of 5 stars A definite front runner for Game of the Year. Again., November 14, 2009
By B. Falcon (Washington DC) - See all my reviews
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
What can I possibly say that the previous reviews have not already covered? The first COD4: Modern Warfare raised the bar for total immersive first person game play, and the on-line multiplayer mode most certainly contributed to the overall success and popularity of this now classic game. Like many, I wondered how in world could Infinity Ward improve on an already near perfect game? Modern Warfare 2 is the answer to that question. I'm sure I could sit here and write a lengthy review about every cool new aspect of the game, but you really just have to experience it for yourself. Newcomers to this franchise will be blown away, and will no doubt be exhilarated by this gaming experience. Original Modern Warfare vets will appreciate the continuing story line in campaign mode, and the vastly improved additions to the on-line multiplayer mode. I can already see that the devastating new killstreaks will be the bane of those who consistently fall victim to more skilled players in Team Deathmatch. God help us all. If you can't pick up this game just yet, you had better at least hone your skills on the original MW before entering the multiplayer arena in MW2, less you get your feelings hurt. The hardened edition is definitely worth the extra cheese if you like the extra bling. Nice steelbook hardcase with very nice cover art, plus a mini concept art book and the original COD game to boot. But in essence it's really all about the game after all isn't it? So if the extra special goodies aren't your cup of tea and you just want to get right down to it and start racking up as many kills as possible, then save your money and go for the standard edition. I'm sure the special editions may be tough to come by when Christmas shopping season hits, so get it while you can. I will not be surprised if this follows in it's predecessors footsteps and wins Game of the Year. Again.

5.0 out of 5 stars It REALLY is worth it., November 10, 2009
By TYE JR "CAKEMAN23" (Milwaukee, WI USA) - See all my reviews
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
Man this game is absolutely awesome, I truly see what all the big fuss is about. I have never played Call of Duty before but if those games in the past is 1/4 as good as this then they're great too. I'm not really into 1st person shooters but this is the best there is. The graphics are so realistic, it looks like you're playing a movie instead of a video game the weapons, voice-overs and missions are immaculate. And the multi-player is absolutely perfect I can't find anything negative about this game. I was always taught if you have nothing nice to say don't say it at all. But I have nothing but nice things to say. I will definitely recommend this to anybody who's looking for a 1st person shooter. I can clearly see why this is the most anticipated game of the year. GRAPHICS 5stars, GAMEPLAY 5stars, REALISM 5stars, WEAPONS 5stars, MULTI-PLAYER 5stars EVERYTHING 5stars. CALL OF DUTY: MODERN WARFARE 2 5STARS...
