For me, COD games have always been about the multiplayer experience. I don’t hate the campaigns; they’re fun action movies to escape from multiplayer for a while. But that wasn’t the case with the original COD 4, Modern Warfare (2007). Its engaging campaign and ingenious multiplayer were some of the best things to ever happen in COD history. Yes, I still love them. But there was something missing from the 2019 reboot. Now, I realize, it was the original trilogy’s core characters and the storyline. Modern Warfare II promises to bring that experience back. Does it live up to expectations? And how good is the multiplayer now? There’s a lot to dissect here. So today, we’ll be taking a look at both aspects of the game in our Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 review.
Modern Warfare 2 (2022) vs Valorant Weapon Comparison: WHICH GAME IS BETTER?
Let me get straight to the point. Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 was supposed to be the first game in the reboot. It has everything fans would expect from a reboot. Better graphics, stunning 3D directional audio, improved AI and many more elements bring back memories of the old days when the campaign was awesome. So let me try to summarize the best parts of the story in our Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 single-player campaign review.
As announced at the end of 2019’s Modern Warfare, Captain Price has assembled “Task Force 141.” If you played the previous MW2, all of your favorite characters are returning as unit members in Modern Warfare II. So, the Task Force 141 agents are Johnny “Soap” MacTavish, Simon “Ghost” Riley, and Kyle “Gaz” Garrick. All led together by Captain Price, Kate Laswell, and General Shepherd.
In addition to Task Force 141, you will also play as the Mexican Special Forces unit "Los Vaqueros". You will meet their leader, Colonel Alejandro Vargas, and his second in command, Rodolfo Parra. Built as a new character from the ground up for MW II to take full advantage of the IW 9 game engine, Alejandro is one of the most realistic looking characters in video games to date. All of the cutscenes featuring Alejandro in the game have become some of my favorite things to watch over and over again because of the eerily realistic eyes.
