Great, but sometimes difficult

Ok, this game is most noted for its online play, but my PC can't play it for some reason (well, mostly my internet lol). However, I have friends who would probably say it's the best online you'll ever play, so if you like online, get it. Now for the single player. Warning: SP is short... VERY short. I still like it, but yeah, if you like games that are at least 10-15 hours long, this game will only deliver about 5 hours unless you're playing on veteran (the hardest difficulty). Veteran difficulty... hmmm, courses like Heat and One Shot, One Kill can be nearly impossible the first time you play them. Though, One Shot, One Kill is an epic level because you get to blow off the arm of Zakhaev (the main villain). Now, I might be complaining that the game was too hard and you might be saying "But you said the difficulty was 'Just Right'" well, yeah, because I normally play it on hardened (an easier difficulty than veteran). I really like the modern warfare setting of the game (to say the least, I like modern and future shooters like Battlfield, Halo, Crysis, etc. the best). The graphics were awesome for a 2007 game. The soundtrack was great, even the rap song at the end (I don't really like rap a whole lot, btw).

Ok, for those who want a family-friendly part of a review, here it is. TONS of swearing, TONS of blood, LOTS of violence... that's how I'll brief it. Parts you can't take out are the swearing (D, H, B, B, A, S, and F word are all used). Most people say the F word isn't used, but it is. You see, in one level you're in this watch tower, and some guy rams it with a car to bring it down, and the guy you're in the tower with will either yell "Oh s***!" or "Oh f***!". The blood cannot be filtered at some spots, though there is a filter for most of it. The parts it can't be filtered: When you blow off Zakhaev's arm, when Zakhaev's son commits suicide, in the level "The Bog" one of your men gets into a fight with a guy, and when he shoots him you'll see a puddle of blood start to form, the last scene about 6 guys die in front of you and they all spill out puddles of blood, in the level "All In" the snipers take out guys, and blood will come out, and finally, in the level "No Fighting in the War Room" there are constantly dead corpses with blood around or puddles of blood. Some scenes to watch out for being there are the scene where you take the first-person perspective of a nuclear bomb killing your guy, a scene where your guy gets executed (first-person perspective again), the scene where you blow off Zakhaev's arm, and the scene where Zakhaev's son commits suicide.

Ok, I think that covers it. Overall, epic game-- definitely worth getting. But if you don't like swearing, blood, and gore (the violence isn't any worse than CoD2 in my opinion) than don't get the game.
