How'd he do that knife trick?

COD:MW2 was obviously a highly anticipated game this year, if not the most anticipated game (right up there with ODST). This game delivered in a lot of areas that fans expected be improved. Its kept the same awesome online multiplayer and created a story with awesome characters we grow fond of, even keeping some characters from the last game. MW2 has great scenery graphics and a very interactive environment. The difficult isn't outrageous and is good for an level of gamer, new or veteran. I played it on veteran (I made a pact with myself to play every game I get on the hardest difficulty) and, although challenging, there weren't any moments where I put down/ threw the controller out of frustration. The controls are easy to use and are very functional if trying to do some sort of fancy combo weapon switch. The added Special Ops feature is a fun way to add in co-operative play without it being in the campaign. Part of me still wishes that there was co-operative campaign play, but after having played the game, it wouldn't have worked with the story line. The only downfall is possibly that and the fact that the campaign was a bit short. Even having played it on veteran, I beat it relatively quickly. The story is a little hard to keep track of unless you played the first one or are really paying attention. Certain characters, such as Makarov, could have played bigger roles, but overall, this is an amazing game and has found its niche in my very selective collection. I highly recommend this game for any gamer.
