Why'd You Get Modern Warfare 2?

Another recent topic got me wondering: Are there people who get a Call of Duty game and only play the campaign or only play the online? I imagine there are gamers who just play one or the other.

For both, i hate play online before ive finished the SP.

Same here. I always beat a campaign at least once before I try it against real people. Guess I could have put this in my original post.

EDIT: "Same here" to two posts up.

Only for the multiplayer but I was surprised at how much fun I am having with the campaign. I believe I will buy the next COD game for both the campaign and the multiplayer. By the way I hate spec-ops easily the dullest thing I have ever played.

Multiplayer. IMO the campaign just isn't that fun.

I bought it for the MP, but the campaign and spec ops are way better IMO. If the campaign was at least 10 hours long it would be worth playing again.

Because i knew it would kick ass!:D

I got to to beat spec ops and campaign on veteran witch i finnaly acomplished 2 months ago.

i find myself now beasting through multiplayer and having a blast :P

I didn't and don't plan to. In my opinion, this series brings out the absolute worst in gamers online and I can't be bothered with it. Too many other games to play.

I got it for both. It really pisses me off when people buy a game and never play camapign.

For the campaign, and also for the whole COD experience, too, with the exception of multiplayer.

I voted for both there both heaps better improvements than the other ones, like in graphic, maps, heaps of things.

It's a shame that they are both insanely flawed, took a day of play to realise.

For both. While the single player campaign is excellent, it doesnt warrant the price tag of a full game without its top-notch competitive multiplayer.

I got it for both the campaign and the multiplayer.

I always feel that I'm doing it wrong whenever I go to multiplayer first, or neglect the single player completely. :P

So yeah, I got it for both. The only exception would be Rainbow Six Vegas. I believe that I got stuck at one mission and I just gave up. So I just left it and went on to become a Captain in the multiplayer, not even knowing if I was even halfway through the SP campaign.

mainly for multiplayer, i still havent even finish single player.

I got it because I had gift credit on Amazon and I also gained $20 off a future video game purchase when buying it. Definately my last Call of Duty purchase ever though as I originally wasn't even going to get MW2 as I'm growing tired of a new Call of Duty game every year. But mainly for multiplayer...

I got it mainly for the single player campaign and the SpecOps mode. I really don't do online multiplayer for a number of reasons, including the fact that I simply don't have time to get good enough to be a decent player.

You seeem to have neglected to place Spec Ops as an option to me Spec Ops was a major selling point.

I bought it for both. If anyone payed $60 to just play the campaign then I feel bad for them. It is only about 5 hours long. Vuurk

It's about ten hours if you play on Veteran. :)

I got it for both of them but the campaign was a lot beautiful and intense.

Just because its more tedious.

Peer pressure.

And because I was hoping it would be everything Call of Duty 4 was, but improved, which it was but it also turned out to be terribly unbalanced.

Pretty much. My statement was a back-handed compliment to the game.

I hate the online in MW2, more specifically I hate the 12-year-old children that infest every game. An I didn't buy it, I just borrowed it from a friend; don't see the point in paying £40 for a game I can finish in one sitting on the hardest difficulty. Regardless of them negative comments the single player was really fun.

I got it with the intention of playing both modes. I wouldn't have purchased it if it hadn't come with both.
