This is what a sequel should be, everything the previous game had simply built on & improved in every way.
MW2 basically has everything MW had and built on & improved on, graphics are brilliant, gameplay is brilliant, sound is brilliant, new weapons / perks / attachments are brilliant, online is brilliant, single player is brilliant, politicians are morons.
-0.5 Rating, the reason i only give it a 9.0 is because im a co-op gamer and they didnt do a co-op campaign mode, apperently this is because they found co-op removed players from the immersion, insted we have a co-op special ops mode that gives you & a friend objective missions to do such as racing down a mountain / Escort (one of u is the VIP, the other is in a helicopter protecting him! - crazy fun!) / Stealth / Assault / Defense etc which are brilliant, though personally id of liked alot more missions to do (though theres enough, its just so good i want more.).... and
-0.5 Rating, Increasing the RRP to £55 is a kick to the testicular area, would of be -1.0 Rating but the game so good i couldnt.
The only gripe i had with MW1 was multiplayer only had about 3 maps i actually liked so that annoyed me... MW2 so far has lots of maps, not found one ive not liked yet and there pretty big too.
If only Forza 3's developers realised a sequel is ment to build uppon what the previous game had rather than "resetting" its core features and replacing them with a Pollock. (Which is fine its green & friendly to the environment, keeps more people happy, but fish & chip fans know its not cod.) [no pun intended]
