Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. Probably one of the most anticipated games of last year, and for good reason. Modern Warfare 2 is an incredible game. I picked it up on launch night after waiting in line in the cold for 2 hours (12 AM to 2 AM). The graphics are wicked, the gameplay is crazy, and the storyline picks up where Call of Duty 4 - Modern Warfare left off.
In addition, they added a Special Ops mode that gives you objectives on three difficulty levels in the maps from the campaign, which can be tackled alone or 2-player online. This was a smart move because not only does it give us a challenge (because yes, the Ops are difficult!), but it increases the playability and Replayability (Because there's only so much you can do in campaign mode, but you never have to play the Ops the same way!). It's provided me with so many hours of gameplay already, and it's not boring yet!
The multiplayer is decent, with more features than the previous Call of Duty games, though I found that they made such drastic changes to the multiplayer that it takes quite a long time to get used to. I dislike IWNet (As does everyone else, it seems), and I think it was a stupid idea to take out dedicated servers. I'm quite happy that Activision sacked Infinity Ward for it.
I also like how you can put a shotgun, machine pistol, etc. as your secondary weapon in a custom class in Modern Warfare 2, but that still doesn't make up for IWNet.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 earns a good 9.7 for single player, and a not-so-nice 7.8 for multiplayer in my books.
