It might not have fixed all the problems from the first game, but there&#8217;s just so much quality content packed into this game that it will almost certainly be one of the most-played games in your library for a long time to come.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>From <A HREF=\"http:\/\/xbox360.ign.com\/articles\/104\/1043366p1.html\">IGN<\/A> (gave the game a \u201c9.5,\u201d but I wanted to see a \u201c9.7\u201d):<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\nWhen you look at the total package, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 is hands-down one of the best first-person shooters out there, and a truly amazing offering across any system. For those planning to check out everything Modern Warefare 2 has to offer \u2013 online competition, full co-op Spec Ops mode, as well as the campaign \u2013 you\u2019re looking at a no-brainer purchase. For the strictly single player crowd, however, Modern Warfare 2 is surprisingly short, and doesn\u2019t live up to the standard set by previous Call of Duty games. The campaign can be completed in as little as four and a half hours, and the missions make better scenarios and moment-to-moment adrenaline rushes than they do a cohesive, well-told story. If you\u2019re going solo, you\u2019ve officially been warned. Look at the complete Modern Warfare 2 experience though, and there\u2019s no denying its rightful place at the top.\n<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>From <A HREF=\"http:\/\/kotaku.com\/5400558\/call-of-duty-modern-warfare-2-review-this-means-war?skyline=true&#038;s=x\">Kotaku<\/A> (no review number, thank God):<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\nModern Warfare 2 may not innovate or raise the bar as impressively as Call of Duty 4 did in order to grant it automatic game of the year consideration. The better praise it may deserve is that it&#8217;s likely the game that many will be playing well into next year.\n<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>From <A HREF=\"http:\/\/www.joystiq.com\/2009\/11\/10\/review-call-of-duty-modern-warfare-2\/\">Joystiq<\/A> (no review number, thank God)<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\nThough we can&#8217;t comment on the plastic night vision goggles or the other bonuses you&#8217;ll get in the Hardened and Prestige editions, the actual disc containing the game is well worth every cent you&#8217;ll shell out for it. The single-player campaign might not engross you enough to want to play through the entire game again, but multiplayer and Spec Ops will both bring you back many, many times.\n<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>I&#8217;ll add more as I find &#8216;em throughout the day.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, later today I&#8217;ll do a round-up of negative things about the game&mdash;it seems the single-player is a bit short, which is a problem for me since I&#8217;m primarily a single-player guy&mdash;as well as some other <i>Modern Warfare 2<\/i>-related ideas I&#8217;ve got in my head. <\/p>\n<p>Oh, I&#8217;m pretty sure none of us have the game yet, so it&#8217;ll be a while before you see one of us say \u201cI think the game is such and such.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~at\/tN0dFHIJzsm7dNcg3UtTFDU_CqY\/0\/da\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~at\/tN0dFHIJzsm7dNcg3UtTFDU_CqY\/0\/di\" border=\"0\" ismap=\"true\"><\/img><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~at\/tN0dFHIJzsm7dNcg3UtTFDU_CqY\/1\/da\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~at\/tN0dFHIJzsm7dNcg3UtTFDU_CqY\/1\/di\" border=\"0\" ismap=\"true\"><\/img><\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"feedflare\">\n<a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/crunchgear?a=s-c6qUcBEYw:9lB9H3kzePw:V_sGLiPBpWU\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/crunchgear?i=s-c6qUcBEYw:9lB9H3kzePw:V_sGLiPBpWU\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/crunchgear?a=s-c6qUcBEYw:9lB9H3kzePw:F7zBnMyn0Lo\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/crunchgear?i=s-c6qUcBEYw:9lB9H3kzePw:F7zBnMyn0Lo\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/crunchgear?a=s-c6qUcBEYw:9lB9H3kzePw:yIl2AUoC8zA\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/crunchgear?d=yIl2AUoC8zA\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>You know what day it is!
