- Great Game

I finally got this game along with an xbox360 and it's the best game ever. I love the graphics even on a crappy t.v. GET THIS GAME!

- Forget single player then it is one of THE best games ever

1p is just practice for xbox live.

The number of levels and the amount of fun mean you could end up playing this game for days and days and days. I would place it in my top 3 of all games I have played over the past 20 or so years. A true classic.

I liek the level up system, progression of weapons and tactical decisions.

- kept my free time very enjoyable!!

i don't really want to wright a long review so i am going to keep this short and straight to the point(hopefully)

Campaign: The Campaign was amazing. stunning graphics and a great deal of action and never got boring at any point as you would hop from a character to another, from a squad mission to a full scale war, from Afghanistan to Russian then on to Brazilian and many other places.
Bad points on the Campaign was it was waaayyy to short and i would be very annoyed if i didn't have online. also i feel the jumping from character to character was a bit to confusing at first and i wasn't able to make a bond with my character as he would keep change into somebody else.

Online: very enjoyable and addictive. the ranking up system works really well and a massive list of different match mods so you will find yourself liking latest 3 modes. bad side is you will find people who play in a more hide in a corner and shot gun everyone who walks pass, way. they will be frustrating but using a grenade launcher gets them running from there holes. Perks are also a love and hate thing as some make the game-play enjoyable but others such as Last Stand where your enemies get's another chance to kill you even know you have just pretty much killed them.

all in all this game is one of the greats and all the frustrating things are minor and shouldn't Stop you buying this game.

- Not the best game ever, but still massively excellent.

Firstly, I only got this game a few weeks ago. And it's pretty cool (as an understatement).

Single Player: this was the slight disappointment for me. COD4 on Veteran was genuinely very difficult; WAW similarly, was actually a real challenge, even on Hardened. This is really, REALLY easy. It's not a surprise, I suppose; after the success of the first game, IW wanted to make this even more accessible- and in doing this, they've got rid of the difficult element that we had in missions like 'One Shot, One Kill' in 4. Seriously, I completed about half the missions on Veteran without dying once, and I wasn't even paying much attention. Although if you suck, then this won't bother you.

Special Ops: this is genuinely a good idea. Admittedly, there are one or two you can't do single player (the tragedies of not being terribly social) but they're really fun, and you'll probably find yourself playing some of them again and again, trying to do it in the quickest time. With 2 people, it's even more fun, as you can talk tactics and have fun taking it far too seriously.

Multiplayer: Again, first class. All the PC gamers have been kicking off about this, but they're just picky. My one slight gripe is that it's basically been set up for assault rifles; sub-machine guns are all much more underpowered than they were in COD4, which is a shame, because I liked using the MP5 inappropriately. Similarly, LMGs are much less widely used, with the AUG HBAR the only one you can ever practically use for close combat. However, they've sort of fixed this by giving you a much wider range of shotguns, which are amazing fun. The perks system, which lots of people are annoyed about, is probably more balanced than in 4, in my opinion. There's no Juggernaut, and most of the good ones (Stopping Power, Steady Aim, Bling, Sleight of Hand, Ninja) are unlocked quite early on.
The customising of the guns is also much more varied than 4 or WAW (silenced shotguns anyone?) but again, it's not so imbalanced it's noticable. True, noobtubers are perpetual, but they're less powerful than previously, so I suppose, again, it's sort of fixed. And with Prestiges, you can literally spend months on the multiplayer before you could legitimately say you've 'won', as 10th prestige does take a while to get to...

Overall, this is a great game. For the price it is, it's amazing. Unless you're pathologically allergic to fun, you really should get it.

- Worth the wait

I picked this up last night at midnight from the place i work (game) and have been playing it ever since , it is outstanding. Graphically it is on another level to nearly all games out at that monent. It looks great on an HD tv but m sure it would look excellent on a normal tv. The single player took nearly six hours for me to complete which is quite short, it does not disapoint being all action from start to finish in a very nice variety of locations. There is a point in the story which is simply put the gaming moment of this year for me ( i know that makes no sense but when you arrive at it you will know). The only flaw is there is no Co-op story mode but that is made fine by the actual Spec-ops mode which is co-op and has a variety of missions, which are so good to play with a friend. I tried firing up the multiplayer earlier on this morning and already theres a load of people playing it and with good reason its great also i would say its better than in the original because of all the small difference that have been made, they add up to something big i feel.
Overall if you own a 360 you must buy this and experience the best game of the year.
