Price said 'watch your corners' and in COD4 it was good advice but on MW2 there are simply too many corners on every corner вЂ“ moving in any given area requires you to check the rock, the three windows, two doorways, the top of the truck and the 3 rooftops simply put there are too many places to be aware of which is why most players do the waiting game вЂ“ which I sort of understand when the win is based on kills (death match) but not when it needs you to move (capture the flag, sabotage, HQ, domination etc etc). This is true of almost all the maps and, as a domination player, it is quite frustrating to play against a team happy to let you take the flags (and the win) in exchange for kills. On MW2 the balance is overwhelmingly on those who prefer to stay in one or two places, watching and waiting. Some maps favoured one over the other a bit but generally the balance was there. On COD4 the maps mostly allowed for a range of styles, from the still and silent 'long-range' player to the runner-gunner. Ignore the fact that some game modes will never give you many maps, the problem I have is the style of play that the maps support. Sadly this is not the same with the maps, which are mostly weak.

On the plus side, the perks, weapons and classes are all good вЂ“ OK some weapons are useless while some are a bit too strong but mostly I like them, while the perks and weapon add-ons allow you to tailor your class to suit your play really well. This is where, unfortunately, I have my reservations across several aspects. Of course the main selling point of the game is the hope that Infinity Ward can repeat their winning formula for the multiplayer. I have not yet done them all yet but I still enjoy going back and doing some that I find easier for the fun of it.

The ability to play most of them solo helps but the online link-up is very welcome and makes them a lot more fun and manageable. Also the narrative twists and turns are engaging and even once made the hairs on my arms stand up as I got chills! OK it is short if you get good at it and I can understand why those who buy it for this story alone will be annoyed with that, but I was happy with it and loved the majority of the levels. By bringing in an invasion of the US that seems to happen rapidly and in force it does get quite overblown at times and indeed the levels that you play in suburban America, while cool in a novelty way, are probably the ones that work least in a narrative sense вЂ“ even if it does give you the 'wow' moment where you exit a bunker on one level to find you are below Washington and it is burning! Speaking of 'wow' moments the game does have plenty of epic battles that feel massive but don't lose your character amongst hundreds others like what happened in COD5. It looks great, plays great and the only real fault it has is how big the story is. I was very excited to get this game and I'll deal with it bit by bit.

So like millions others I have been playing this game over the last few weeks, having played COD4 for many years.
