FionnMJan 3, 2010Would Give it a nine if it had dedicated servers, the multiplayer is full unbalenced weapons and noobs that could be sorted with servers and admins. Other than that, it is a fantastic game, brilliant graphics and play, but COD 4 it aint if you are looking for some rewarding, competative multiplayer

ALexBJan 13, 2010Its a good game but there is much bad moments. An example is: game choice the better host then user become "server". Too many lags and the biggest mistake is - a game become more pub then harcore. I dont know, but i think game should be more cybersportive !

DutyJan 2, 2010I think the game is good. The campaign is good, Multiplayer is good but sometimes i dont know why i get disconected for nothing and spec ops could have matchmaking. Overal: It´s a good game, but it could be cheaper......

JaapHNov 15, 2009Lol people this game is not so bad that you must award it a zero, as the singleplayer is good. Ok ok.... it's rather short, took me 6 hours on hardened. However the multiplayer is rather fucked up and as I tend to spend atleast 200hours on multiplayer on a given game. I must agree that this game is relatively expensive for what it has to offer. Still it's worth a tiny 7.

stephanmNov 26, 2009The single player campain is to short. At the multiplayer the steam had some problems to find quick a good server, or when the game will start I`ll be kiked, why? Moreover the Grafik performance must improve, I want to play with the setting extra, and not high, because my grafik card can manage this but the game not.

GrahDDec 23, 2009Good but not great. Dumbing down the game takes off 1 point. The fact that the single player is still the same tired mechanic of endless amount of enemies spawning all around you is just slack in this day and age.

JoshHJan 12, 2010The single player mode is short, has a weak storyline (Russians manage to surprise the USA and invade DC, riiiiight). The stand out element of the game is the multiplayer, its great, apart from the lack of dedicated servers I can see it becoming this decades CS.

DaveJan 15, 2010The single player is more an experience than a story and much more fun if you try not to think to hard about the logical flaws and focus more on the quality visuals, entertaining gameplay, and absolutely rock-solid score. The multiplayer aspect really got the shaft, the lag is just the tip of the iceberg, but if you get hooked up with a decent game it's an unparalleled experience.

ScepticNov 11, 2009Please dont blame the consoles and their users guys.The user ratings for all platforms clearly show that we are all mostly disappointed with this average effort.Its sad to see that the reviewers seem a little out of touch with gamers if they rate this above 95 across the board.As for the Pc users;Hint to developers,dont piss them off.

BillyFNov 11, 2009Not happy with no dedicated servers. Not choosing your own means you end up playing on usa servers with all the yanks, not good when you're from the uk asyou get a high ping. If I want a console game I'll buy one next time. Please patch it to go back to look like COD4.

EtacolNov 15, 2009The single player campaign is absolutely great and immersing. Of course, it's pretty linear (except for some tiny parts of the carefully detailed cutscenes) and scripted - but anyone who bought COD4:Modern Warfare shouldn't act all too surprised. This game would be at least be a 9 if it weren't for the lack of a dedicated server for multiplayer (which is less important to me).

AustynVDec 10, 2009Okay.I bought this game like ..what..?2 weeks after it came out and the beggining of the campaign blew me away!But as I progressed thru it,,ehhh you could tell it was to short.In faster words.Good-but short campaign.The multiplayer is polished but

JSempDec 31, 2009In my opinion it was a let down form what was anticipated and is a worse game than Call of Duty 4:Modern Warfare but is still a good all around game and worth the money i paid for it. - I enjoy the new call signs and kill-streak rewards BUT bring back the epic CoD4 maps.

The PC version of Modern Warfare 2 is identical to the console versions in almost every way, and that's actually the problem. PC gamers have a certain expectation for online shooters. Removing dedicated server and user mod support from a game that's already $10 more than its predecessor seriously hinders the long term appeal for me.

Modern Warfare 2 will leave you breathless.

It looks better, it plays better, the story is more intense and the multiplayer is more inviting. And with the inclusion of SpecOps, the longevity of this game is sure to have increased as well.
