10/10
Well I woke up yesterday to some surprising news from my friends, Modern warfare 2 campaign is getting remastered, and its already out. I’m not gonna lie, I heard about it and I bought it immediately. I remember playing this game when it came out in 2009 and that game changing my life, I mean I played the story over and over, and the multiplayer all day. Jumping back into this game after 11 years surprisingly feels as if it came out yesterday, which technically it did, but I remember every mission and character. After playing for a little yesterday I made it to a mission that takes place in Rio and immediately I thought “oh crap this one’s hard” and as I ran through a favela, with militia coming out of every corner and door, while trying to catch and not kill this guy they need for intel on Makarov.
The story of modern warfare 2 is possibly the best Call of Duty story in my opinion. It takes place 5 years after the first game Imran Zakhaev is dead and now a new big bad has stepped into the spotlight, Makarov. After Zakhaev staged a bloody coup in the middle east which ended, with a nuke going off, the world is tense and a war is definitely coming. Makarov wants to bring Russia into a war with America and he does, after a very brutal missions that changed games forever when it first came out. This game goes all over the world from Rio to Russia and even North east Virginia when America gets invaded. You play as American soldiers in Task Force 141 with Captain Price, Soap Mactavish, Roach, Ghost and more.
The game is the same as when it released in 2009 other than its graphics which are great. The game only comes with its campaign mode and that’s probably due to the fact that if they did release its multiplayer, a lot of people would stop playing the new Modern Warfare. It only makes sense that they would want to keep everyone playing the new Warzone instead of having half of the player pop. moving over to a different game.
I think this game is great, it’s one of my favorite games from my childhood so I have that nostalgia factor with it. if you’ve never played the original Modern Warfare trilogy I definitely suggest this game and if you have played the original trilogy then you should definitely get this game, I mean what else are you doing with this quarantine.
