A repetitive campaign is more than made up for by an exciting online multiplayer with many maps and skilled competition.

User Rating: 9 | Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter X360
The first thing that you will probably notice when you first play Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter 2 is that you can't expect any Halo-style heroics on a minute by minute basis. In the urban warzones that the game focuses on, cover is king. is you don't find cover fast, you can count the time to a game over screen in seconds. The storyline of the campaign isn't all that memorable, but the true challenge of the campaign comes if you try to never lose any of your squad mates to the cold grip of death. The squad command system works perfectly, with your squad mates doing exactly what you want them to 95% of the time. However, when the orders do glitch up, it is severely annoying. For example, one time when I was playing the campaign, my squad mates decided to stand in the middle of the road instead of behind pillars, and were decimated in seconds, leading to me restarting the area.
The multiplayer component of GRAW 2 is where things look much better. The Co-Op, Solo, and Campaign modes work very well online, with varying maps ranging from desolated villages to hydroelectric dams. The servers are rarely laggy and the players are generally very talented, leading to intense deathmatches instead of pointless competition with hordes of noobs. All around, GRAW 2 is an excellent purchase if you have Xbox Live, but if you don't have an Xbox Live Gold account, then the six to seven hours of campaign is still worthwhile enough to purchase if you have some extra money lying around.
