63Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 Review
***SPOILER ALERT***
Single Player
The single player of this game was short, but in my opinion short and sweet. The twists were very clever I think, but at times really annoying. I was annoyed when Shepard turned on you, but thought it was a clever twist. The EMP was great fun, and the Heli's falling out of the sky was clever. All the new guns definately made it more fun, Being able to stand on a roof, using a sniper with a Thermal imagery scope. There is also weapons in single player, that Infinity Ward decided not to put into Online Multiplayer, and have never been seen before on any game
Infinity Ward are obviously planning a third Modern Warfare, because at the end, after you kill Shepard in the immense fight, you still haven't found Makarov. And if You have played Cod 4, You surely would have enjoyed seeing the much loved Character half way through the game, which I wont spoil. I recommend this single player, as I found myself sitting down for most of the day when I got the game on it.
There is also a Bonus Mission, which you unlock, when you complete the Single Player on any difficulty. It is a museum, full of all the Characters in the game, and Every Weapon and Vehicle, You can pick up the weapons, and Go over to the Information desk, and Press the BIG Red button that says "Do Not Press" When you press that all the Characters Turn on you and try to attack you. If you just want to fight one character, then you can kill everyone else off by shooting them before pressing the red button.

Special Ops
The Special Ops was a great addition in my opinion. Its something great to play with friends, and is very enjoyable, the large variety of missions was very good. They gave it a more realistic feel. From having to sneak through a snowy woods full of enemies, to defending your Friend, on the ground, whilst they are trying to make it to a certain place, whilst you are in a AC130, Watching over them. I Recorded a couple of videos, they are below, please do go and watch them.

Online Multiplayer
Infinity Ward have definitely gone into detail with the online. With so many guns too chose from, much more attachments to put on them, lots more camo, and more perks. They have also included "Death Streaks" which are like Kill Streak rewards, but for when you die multiple times in a row, these are such things as "Martydom" Where you drop a live grenade when you die, and others. They have also included more unlockable kill streaks, You can choose which ones you want, there is a lot to choose from, there is even one for a 25 kill streak, and its a "Tactical Nuke", and it ends the game with an auto win for your team. Everything seemed more controlled as well, With a "Predator Missile" Where you control a missile from the sky to the ground, and AC130's Where you are in control of the gun, and the missile launcher on it.
Invinity ward have cut down on the number of perks in Modern Warfare 2, Compared to World at War and Modern Warfare, but have done something different. They have added "Pro's" To perks, where when you complete special perk challenges (i.e 300 kills with Stopping Power) You get a "Pro" Perk, which runs alongside the original perk, but gives you something extra, like Stopping Power's Pro, is More damage to Air support.
Infinity Ward have also added, Much more chance to be unique, With the ability to change your Callsign and Emblem, which appears on screen, when you kill someone, get killed, or do something special. Here is a full list of the Callsigns and Emblems
