OR IS IT?!

Will probably pirate it to play the single player. Definitely not worth buying for the PC. And I never like playing FPSers on the console, but if you are going to get it, get it on console.

And 3 hours long?

I think it took me 6-7h to play throu the SP campaign (without the special ops missions which I might play later).

Definetely fun, thou there are some extreme awesome maps (the restaurant/parking lot one, the Gulag mission, the ones in the Brazilian(?) slums) and some that just annoyed the f*ck out of me (running throu the 2 faction mayhem airfield where getting shot or not seemed to be 99% random based).

As in MW1, it's awesome what they do with the audio. Constant gameplay-reactive radio chatter from your team/base command and the combat zone background; though very "american" it really is something special. Streaming huge maps like the Gulag is also impressive.

Still I don't think it reaches the awesomeness of the HalfLife games; MW seems always a bit too hectic for my taste, often I don't know what the hell is going on with everything going apeshit around me. But maybe that's intended. It's not Modern Teaparty 2, is it.

I'm about 3/4 through I think. Enjoying it a lot.

Definitely a bit hectic. Definitely don't get everything that's going on, but I assume that's part of it. I think I pick up on a lot more via audio/visual cues than I think I am -- makes it more of an EXPERIENCE I guess.

I'm trying to work out if it's better than HL2 and/or Portal. It's damn close.

Different kind of game though I suppose. Very, very exciting. Such a range of missions too.

NEVER!

Yeah, we played a lot of the single player campaign at the LAN, and it was pretty epic.

   The suburbia/diner level was pretty cool, and the brazillain slums, was just pure intensity (the buggers come from everywhere!), and it just builds, and gets better and better.

  The squad calling out (sometimes pretty descriptive) where the enemy was to you, was pretty cool too. Its designed to be very, very intense, to reflect the chaos of real warfare, and does a good job of it. Even at normal, its quite a challenge, compared to most FPSers .

  When you first start, and it tells you there are levels that some people might find upsetting that you have the option of skipping, i was like "Eh?", but when you get to it you see why, felt like such a dick doing them.

Anyway, pretty epic, and worth it just for the single player.

Refering to the 'Airport-level'?

That was kinda extreme

Yeah. I think i had to redo it about 8 times, before i got the patience to not just turn around and gun down the nearest Russian carring a machine gun. Even as a video game it felt really wrong, and i did not enjoy that level.

i didnt realy have a issue with that level i mean its just a game but i can see why people could have issues with that

i fucking love you, you bastard.

I thought the airport scene was pretty cool! But maybe that's my inner monster speaking.

That scene was deleted from the Russian version of the game, incidentally.

Finished it last night. Loved the frantic 'F' hitting in the last scene.

Am told there's a bonus Nuke Scene if you finish it on Veteran? I'm not good enough/don't have enough patience to do that sadly... but would love another Nuke Scene...!

Great game. Think MW1 had more impact on me. But some truly fantastic sequences in MW2.
