Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2Follow

I used to play Counter Strike a lot on the PC. Using a mouse and keyboard is definitely a lot better than using a controller, but I got fed up with all the script kiddies and their infinite health and aim bots-- something incredibly rare on consoles.

Hi.. I need help guys.. Can someone rank this game? or any reviews about this game? I want to know if this game is good or not. I'm planning to play it on my PC. Thanks..

My thoughts on the game are as followed:

The campaign is pretty fun. You're playing as different people all the time, so it makes it more interesting. They throw in some vehicle play, and throw in some covert ops type stuff. The space scene looks amazing on my 50" plasma, too.

Spec-ops is really fun. It gives you a taste of the campaign with some extra bonus vehicle useage.

Multiplayer is awesome. The customization is amazing. You won't run into the same classes over and over, like most games.

All-in-all I like the game a lot. Myself, Teddy, and a few other friends play a lot, and we always have a blast.

I'm not trying to enlighten you; I am expressing vitriolic criticism regarding your priorities.



Consoles are higher in quality insofar as they approximate some ideal of "videogame system" compared to computer systems, however, it has nothing to do with their components.

I think you have this grand vision for what "Auto-aim" is.


Trust me. A console doesn't just magically aim for you. Feyras would be so much better if it did ;)


And I think what Pensive was trying to get at is, a computer system can play games well, and games are made for them. But they do other stuff that has nothing to do with games.

A console is made for one purpose and built with parts in mind for one purpose. Gaming.

Oh yeah? Well, your mom.

Depends on the level of auto-aim, of course, but I've played shooter games on consoles where the crosshair would "stick" to targets. I've even played console shooters where the crosshair would automatically move to the nearest visible target. Basically all you had to do was hold down the trigger and win.

That said, I just went out and bought the PC version of MW2. The single player campaign (which is what I play it for) is breathtaking, but painfully short. The plot twists were nice, but how come they always have to kill off your characters? They did it in MW1 with Jackson and the nuke and in this one they just go all out with the killing of protagonists.

I didn't find the "No Russian" scene that disturbing. I'm guessing a couple of hours of Prototype ruined whatever empathy I might share with computer generated civilians.

What did get to me, though, was the later parts of the game, especially the scene in Washington D.C. They did a very nice job on that setting and I like the way they cut to the different playable characters in that moment.

All in all, I'd give it 8 out of 10. If they'd made the single player campaign longer, it would've been a 9, and if they'd fixed the dumb AI where the guy you're supposed to follow won't move until a wounded enemy soldier hiding behind a stack of crates is dead, I'd give it a 10.

Do you know what "practical" means?

Aye, a few points made me feel like banging me head into a wall but all in all not very hard. Took about as long as most halo games on legendary.

However, I now take back my comment on enjoying the multiplayer.

This game should come with a ******* tent and portable grill there's so much camping. I rage quit, snapped the disk and then lit if on fire.

I feel better now.

I been moving a lot last two days.


Go figure I've been doing worse.

I'm a second year college student with no job and I can afford an eyefinity set up. It's really not something only enthusiasts can do.

Also, knifing people is ******* fun as hell. Marathon, Quickfeat, Commando Pro + only knife kills = so much fun. (PS3 version)
