You'll never go anywhere if you stay in your comfort zone forever. Don't be worried either, skipping over these sequences doesn't damage the flow of the game all that much, though we'd recommend them to all gamers who think they can handle the experience. In fact, it's so direct and brutal at points that when you start the game it even gives you the option to opt-out of some of the more disturbing scenes and massacres in the game - something the tabloids will quickly forget if they ever get wind of those levels. Before long you’re climbing up glaciers, swimming under oceans and even floating through space – Modern Warfare 2 is fast, fierce and it doesn’t mess around. The opening missions have you, as a US Ranger, battling militia groups while on patrol in Afghanistan and the story only gets bigger and bolder from there-on in. Picking up five years after the end of the previous game, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 doesn’t waste any time in getting you stuck into some hardcore and relentlessly paced combat.
The singleplayer campaign is especially so, in fact and while the multiplayer side of the game is undoubtedly what’s going to see the most use, anybody who dismisses the singleplayer portion as only a training exercise for the real, online battle is missing out.
We’re tackling the game in two parts, with Harry handling the multiplayer review towards the end of this article and myself dealing with the singleplayer up front – but one thing we’ve already agreed on is that the game is pretty damned fantastic. Modern Warfare 2 is fantastic, just so we’re clear. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Platform: PC, Xbox 360, PlayStation 3
