    MW2 was the first COD I truly loved and this remaster does it justice in so many ways. There is no multiplayer or spec ops but i'm honestly fine with this because I never played them during their prime but instead after it came out so i really only had experience with the story and campaign due to me not having xbox live. The graphics are incredible and the new animations are slick andMW2 was the first COD I truly loved and this remaster does it justice in so many ways. There is no multiplayer or spec ops but i'm honestly fine with this because I never played them during their prime but instead after it came out so i really only had experience with the story and campaign due to me not having xbox live. The graphics are incredible and the new animations are slick and smooth. Some characters in-game models have been changed but that's normal considering this is a remaster and Infinity Ward can't just use the old lower res models for a remaster. The story is the same as 10 years ago (obviously) and is still as incredible and controversial as it was then. This was personally more personal for me because I played MW2's campaign a lot over the last 6 to 7 years and memorized most of the missions and voice lines so to hear them again was very nostalgic. If you loved MW2's campaign and don't mind about no multiplayer you will love this remaster.… Expand

    The best COD ever. The story is fantastic and the characters are awesome. This remaster only makes the game better, the lighting is great and the visual effects are fantastic, the face models are phenomenal, definetely a must buy for COD fans.

    It's Modern Warfare 2 with great graphics. Still feels great, and has a nice nostalgia feel to it.

    Had more fun than I did playing MW2019 Multiplayer. Would rather have saved 40 Dollars waiting for this instead.

    It does a great job at getting the blood flowing. It is a great remaster of the original. What makes this better than Modern Warfare Remastered is the fact that is was not sold only in a bundle when it came out. I personally appreciate that fact.

    Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Remastered is a superb recreation of my favourite Call of Duty game. The story stands up well, with big action set-pieces and smaller, more character-driven moments blending well. The divisive No Russian mission is in there, but it can be skipped if you're not into that.

The story stands up well, with big action set-pieces and smaller, more character-driven moments blending well. The divisive No Russian mission is in there, but it can be skipped if you're not into that.

    The combat is brilliant with big meaty feeling weapons, interesting multi-level maps and a good mixture of run and gun, stealth and tower defence. Also, the drone is bloody good fun to use still after all these years.

    The combat is as good as ever, the weapons feel meaty and satisfying and there is a decent amount of variety in weapons to keep things interesting. The graphics are good, as you'd expect from a CoD game.

    The graphics look as good as you'd expect for a PS4 game, and all the usual high production values are on show with superb voice acting and smooth animations everything just feels super polished. Although, I played this after finishing the disappointingly janky We Happy Few so maybe it is just by comparison.

    A fantastic coat of paint put over a near-perfect single player campaign.

    p.s. It's just a shame that there isn't any multiplayer to be coupled with it, but then again, this is a review for the "Campaign Remastered".    … Expand

    Mas que un remaster esto es un remake y se nota en su calidad técnica y artística los cuales están a años luz de la original. Es un modo historia de CoD muy recomendable para los amantes de la franquicia ya que roza la excelencia. Quizás su punto más negativo es que su historia sigue igual de mal hilada que en su estreno original pero no mancha lo que es el producto completo.

    Best CoD campaign. A decent remaster, bringing some good old memories.
    AI is fine, graphics are amazing, story is top notch, game is stable, never happened to any glitches.

    Está muito bem adaptado, gráficos bem bonitos, e mesmo que faça um pouco de falta o multijogador, esse Call of Duty não precisa, simplesmente possui uma das melhores campanhas da franquia.

    One of my favorite games of all time finally comes to the PS4 with upgraded graphics and not much else. Am I mad? Nah, not really. I love the Modern Warfare campaign stories and I can't wait for the 3rd one to be released sometime in the future.

    En su epoca no lo pude jugar completo y ahora que lo dieron en PS Plus ya lo probé y es excelente en cuanto a la historia y actuaciones. En resumen: si no lo has jugado, esta es la oportunidad para descubrirlo.

    Even though there is a LOT and I mean a LOT of hate for Call of Duty, but there are some fantastic games in this franchise, and 2009’s Modern Warfare 2 is most definitely one of them.
    An amazing and intriguing story, a great multiplayer (only available on PS3 and Xbox 360), and of course, being a FPS, it’s easy to see the POV play out very well.

    Awesome Remaster, basically a remake. Best CoD campaign ever, but its obviously that I missed MP.

    The exclusion of spec Ops and multiplayer may turn off some but for twenty dollars the campaign is both beautiful and twice as fun.

    Great remaster of this classic game. some background assets don't look great but in general the character models and more important parts of levels look great. the story still remains as one of the best COD campaigns.

    My only criticisms are that this game does not have multiplayer (because if they did obviously their other MW game would die) and the AI is a bit bizarre as I kept being    Great remaster of this classic game. some background assets don't look great but in general the character models and more important parts of levels look great. the story still remains as one of the best COD campaigns.

    The game beautifully rescues the PS3 classic and is perfect for casual gamers who don't like multiplayer.

    Had a blast replaying the legendary MW2 campaign with improved visuals, but the exclusion of both Spec Ops and ESPECIALLY the Multiplayer is a massive disservice.

    This was a good remaster for a Call if Duty title. Some points in the game were re done well and some other points myself and other questioned why did they change something even if it was small. Such as Ghost interrogating someone in the original he had a car battery and jumper leads. In the remaster it’s just a blow torch.

    Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Remastered is an attempt to earn fast money in a problematic period for the industry, when most of the planet's inhabitants are hiding in their homes and apartments. You can finish the story campaign in just five hours, and there is no multiplayer. In addition, in Russia and Ukraine, the developers managed to spoil the story due to the removal of a mission critical to the plot, which, along with the average graphics and other problems of the project, is disappointing. The original MW2 deserves the same respect as the first Modern Warfare game.

    It’s a well-made remaster but also one without which we could easily get by. Only for those who didn’t play the original game in the first place. [06/2020, p.58]

    MW2 Campaign Remastered is everything you can expect from a remaster of one of the best CoD campaigns and FPS campaigns in general. It looks better, it feels better, even with its occasional audio issues. Still, it is a bit short, and unless you are a true fan or just nostalgic about those days you played it, it is hard to recommend to anyone else, due to its lack of multiplayer and lack of longevity.
