Feb 3, 2012Single player (too short) is ok, but multi (WTF?!) is terrible. No Dedicated servers, mods, can't change maps, too expensive, casual **** I'm very disappointed on this game. COD4 is better.

May 4, 2012Game used to be funner but... the servers are the worst ever, games without dedicated servers are a pain to play, the combat is not very smooth at all. This was the better COD game before the rest came out.

Oct 9, 2012single player: literally no challenge, you can play it (even on veteran) in 2 hours or so
co-ops: nothing special
multiplayer: this is the most offensive thing about this game, they abandon the servers a long time ago, the dlc maps, the community is awful etc
one just for the time invested playing this game, never again. -

Jan 5, 2013A great game on release, it provided hours and hours of more addictive Call of Duty fun after its predecessor. However, the more you play the worse the game gets. By the release of Black Ops the Call of Duty series was tired and lacking in originality. Nowadays Modern Warfare 2 suffers from repeatedly failed releases and is now an utterly pointless past time.

Mar 5, 2013This game is overstimulating and bland at the same time. The campaign is terrible, though mercifully short. It plays like one of those popup arcade shooters except your camera can move. The multiplayer is not painful to play, but it is full of hackers and not very interesting.

Aug 9, 2013There are small positive sides, but a large negative side on the PC version.
The single player part is fun, but really short.
Multiplayer is not working properly and you will be unable to find a game.
My suggestion is that you skip this completely and buy MW3 instead, or buy the Xbox 360 or PS3 versions. These have a working multiplayer with a large fanbase. -

Oct 25, 2013DONT BUY THIS HACKED PIECE OF SH1T. 85% You will end up playing with subhumans. No wonder the sells were good when 1 out of 3 had to buy an new copy to cheat. Buy COD4 or World at War. At least there you wont be put into an position where you bend over and take it like a little b1tch.

Dec 21, 2013Dull very dull. The game play is one of the worse I've ever seen offering at least on single player nothing but its couple hour story. The story is very bad nothing surprises or makes you even the least bit sad. Multipalyer is were all the money goes into but its no different from MW1 or MW3. If you must buy a Call of Duty game buy Black Ops 2.
-
Dec 25, 2013It comes as a total surprise to me that MW 2 is a bit disappointing. New twists at the end of the game were far fro enough to make up for a weak, predictable plot. Regarding campaign, it was so short that i finished it within only a couple of hours. However, I am still a fan of Infinity Ward and I enjoy playing Call Of Duty.

Aug 16, 2020Still good but not as good as MW1. The ending is lackluster compared to MW1.
-
Jan 18, 2017Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2... The best CoD ever made !!! I would love to see a remastered version of it, but only changing graphics, gameplay is perfect. I think CoD MW2 was the best CoD ever because of the maps,nukes,gameplay and... the INTERVENTION !!! Hell yeah !
PS: 4.2 in user score really ? Why little battlefield fans are so tilted that CoD is better ? -
Jul 6, 2018Jugabilidad casi lo mismo que el anterior, los gráficos mejoran un poco, el online hace pocos cambios, y la historia sigue siendo espectacular.
-
Oct 15, 2022Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. History is written by the winners. Excellent in terms of plot, but weak in execution. The new characters are well written. Compared to World at War and Modern Warfare, the weapons are very plastic, and the sounds of shots are overly toy, but the overall tension from the passage of the game is trying to overcome these disadvantages.
-
Oct 20, 2019Начало скатывания серии - пока еще ничего не предвещает беды, но предчувствие есть. Но игра хорошая.
-
Feb 15, 2018the first Call Of Duty game I've played.
It's awesome and it has very good story (10).
Various gameplay it's the first COD that may you fire with drones & missles (8).
Very good animations for characters (9).
Great Characterizations love all of the characters I love Price Mactavish Ghost &... (10)
Very short campaign like the other CODs (6). -
Jan 25, 2018Era de ouro do nosso querido COD. Uma história ruim com traições cliches, mas com fases excelentes e uma boa jogabilidade
-
Mar 4, 2018графика-хороша, только на тенях лесенки, хоть сглаживание на максимум, но это фигня, сюжет тоже хорош, эпичность на 9.
-
Apr 30, 2019MW2 é um jogo incrivel, a campanha é excelente, melhor de todos os cod, porém, mantenho essa nota devido o multiplayer, atualmente esta cheio de cheaters, toxicos e usadores de mw2sa, vale a pena comprar pela campanha, e se for multiplayerr passa longe
-
Sep 18, 2018I played this only because singleplayer :) Basically it's just the same game as previous Modern Warfare, still funny for a few hours though.

Does not improve much on its predecessor but gameplay is already perfect.
Game is just a story sequel to the first game and it has some of the best moments in the franchise. -
Oct 24, 2018The best Call of Duty game out so far, if I could give it a 9.5/10, I would. It had some balancing issues, but other than that it was the perfect multiplayer fps back in the day.
-
Nov 1, 2018Игра отлична. Хорошие если не идеальное продолжение Modern Warfare. Хороший геймплей. Игра не долгая и не короткая. Сюжет хороший.

Sep 29, 2019Modern Warfare 2 is Interesting as an average shooter, but not interesting as some history.
-
Oct 28, 2022Enjoying single player very much. Multiplayer plays well, feels a little like Warzone, is somewhat along the lines of what I expected - very happy with it. Look forward to seeing it unfold/progress and develop further over the next year or two. Like the K/D on the scoreboard.

Dec 29, 2018Игра шидевр! Просто лучшая игра всех времён и народов. Какая графика, какой графон!

May 11, 2020Review for CALL OF DUTY: MODERN WARFARE 2 Remastered:This Remastered edition doses not showing too much improve or something new,I can not start the game when this game released,It's a little bug but the production team are not care about PC player so they they didn't fix it.The game has a better graphic quality,but in other ways is mediocre.
7.3 Fine -

Feb 10, 2021One of the best multi-player experiences in my opinion. Sure, there were some drawbacks, but looking at the hour count it was one of the top games I have spent the most time in.

Jul 11, 2019I was glad to understand Korean language support and story once I enjoyed, and should I go the same way that the key setting changes every time the series comes out?
-
Dec 29, 2022OK, whatever the other guys say, I only played the single mode, and I have played it twice. In addition, who doesn't like the OST composed by Hanz Zimmer.

Jan 16, 2021Honestly, I loved this game. At first, I encountered some resolution problems. But the story-telling was absolutely amazing. I enjoyed every single moment. 5hrs on record.
-
Jan 17, 2022당시 FPS와 현대전에서 느끼고 싶었던 모든 로망을 집대성한 작품. 전작에서 이어가는것이 말처럼 쉽지만은 않다는걸 생각하면 결코 저평가받을 이유는 없다.
-
Nov 18, 2019Great sequel to previous MW, with even better story - like seeing a good action movie.
MP is MVP :) -

Apr 5, 2020Why is everyone so butthurt about the mp not being as good, the game was released in 2009 and the reviews are from 2010 so internet back then was awful so what do they expect. This game is great
-
Apr 3, 2020One of the Best War Games Ever! The Story Is Gorgeous! Great in Multiplayer and Special Operations Mode!

Apr 27, 2020Single Player campaign is brilliant. Lots of tune-ups and improvements from the first game in terms of mechanics and gameplay. Can't say much in terms of MP.

Jul 5, 2020Новый локации, новый сюжет, было приятно окунуться в этот милитаристический эпик.
-
Jul 21, 2020The Campaign is still very good. But the downside to the PC version is the fact that the Multiplayer is dead. Now back to the Campaign, The misson... Takedown is F U C K I N G.... CANCER.
-
Jul 25, 2020I loved COD4 and MW3 but MW2 isn't that great. But MW2's ending was good. MW2's ending
was one of the best endings I have ever seen. -
Jul 27, 2020Well, it is a great game. What can I say? The campaign is good, the multiplayer is good. Spec ops is fun but I'm bad at video games so I get angry if I die. That's mostly my fault.
-
Mar 14, 2021Played in 2021. Single campaign is alright, short and fun. Nothing special, but nothing horrible either. 2-3 nights of light joy.
-
Aug 13, 2020The COD MW 2 just have a little more action a little more panicking gameplay moments but for me never will be better then the first COD MW.
-
Aug 25, 2020Well it's true that multiplayer is a bit annoying (still pretty enjoyable in my opinion) but please don't believe in people that think the campaign is "garbage." Special Ops is a great addition too.

Jan 1, 2022Стрельбу подтянули и стало стрелять приятно. Только бесит что когда в тебя стреляют тебя трясёт как в центрифуге. Сюжетка как всегда для галочки, напарники как всегда полные дебилы которые никого не могут убить.
-
Sep 6, 2021хорошая история но геймплей конечно это пиздец, "бегай стреляй"
-
Dec 17, 2020New locations, new storyline, it was nice to plunge into this militaristic storm
-
Feb 8, 2021Same game as previous modern warfare with the worse storyline. Still worth playing.
-
Jan 21, 2022Enjoyable single player campaign, never played multiplayer so I can't rate it.

Aug 14, 2023One of the best campaigns you can play in a first person game, specially one set in modern days. It is really really worth it. Heard there was a multiplayer mode too, but never seen that.

Dec 25, 2020Il migliore della saga in assoluto, incazzature e oggetti lanciabili inclusi nel pacchetto. Trama alla classica, ma ben realizzata con una soundtrack magnifica. Multiplayer con le mappe migliori di sempre.

Jan 20, 2021The story has way more hollywood wibe than previous instances, but if you're fine with that then you'll get a horrendously memorable story, horrendously good soundtrack and horrendously good variety of mission's that are all very tense. You'll finish the game in about 6 hours but I think that's a good sacrifice for it's quality
-
Jan 11, 2021amazing game incredible story and the multiplayer was really good maps guns hitmarkers killstreaks. Man I love this game

Awards & Rankings

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.
