    Call Of Duty 2: Modern Warfare 2 Campaign Remastered looks like a modern day new release without the modern day reimagining. Most Of the missions still fair well however some of them do feel a bit dated. Most of the updated graphics look very nice minus some small issues with fire and some othe quirks in little details I knit-picked along the way. The “No Russian” mission remains optionalCall Of Duty 2: Modern Warfare 2 Campaign Remastered looks like a modern day new release without the modern day reimagining. Most Of the missions still fair well however some of them do feel a bit dated. Most of the updated graphics look very nice minus some small issues with fire and some othe quirks in little details I knit-picked along the way. The “No Russian” mission remains optional due to the controversy surrounding this mission, however you can still decide to play or skip the mission via the immediate option or opt to turn It on or off in the game settings later on. The new Modern Warfare has changed the COD formula, so due to the update to the to the feel of the franchise now it has shown the dated formula here in sheep’s clothing. While this is a remaster and not a reimagining it’s fair to say you get exactly what it says - a "pretty" version of the campaign which released in 2009. If you are a COD fanatic or never had the chance to play the original then it’s definitely worth the play-through. If you have played the original you will ultimately have to decide if you’d like to play again with a modern look and the older school feel. I for one have always enjoyed the campaign play and have been a long time fan of zombies and extinction modes in the franchise. With that said this was a welcomed replay for me. In the end there’s nothing done wrong here it ultimately falls on the individual player on what experience they have with the franchise, and if it peaks your individual interest or not.… Expand

    While the MW2 campaign is pretty good, I honestly wish they remastered the multiplayer as well. If they did that this would be an easy 9/10.

    A classic among shooter classics, with a very good visual improvement and a very good price relation.

    Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Campaign Remastered is an example of how to make a great remaster. With its graphics at what we can expect of a game in 2020 we relive one of the most thrilling stories of the First Person Shooters. A tribute to the genre.

    Thank goodness for all of its memorable, Michael Bay-style blockbuster moments, because in 2020 Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 is competing for our attention with its own very impressive reboot. In that light, the generic shooting-gallery gameplay of Modern Warfare 2’s campaign feels dated – after so many games we’re onto the magician’s trick now. The new Modern Warfare has largely pushed the series past this for the better. So while this remaster is still a fun ride that looks impressively current, it’s lost a lot of its punch. Some of that is due to the advances of time, but it’s mostly because it’s been bested by...itself.
