Modern Warfare 2 was the big turning point in the Call of Duty series for many fans. While COD 4 was unanimously acclaimed and well-received, MW2 did not enjoy the same level of praise. So what's the deal? Was this game nothing more than a product of it's time? Or is there some secret formula to the franchises success hidden away?

Only one way to find out...

    What I love the most about COD MW2 is the insane variety of scenarios. Rather than urban/woodlands/beach/_somewhere in Russia_ environments as it was staple for... every shooter until then, on MW2 you play in the frozen desert, African jungles, airports, oil rigs, airplane boneyards, countryside villas, and a fucking WAR TORN UNITED STATES OF AMERICA!
  • @Rycerz49
    The voice actors in this game were on point. Watching this makes me want to play through all these games again

    Modern Warfare 2 can best be described as Micheal Bay done right
  • @MitchieWee
    The things I remember the most in MW2 was always having a "nemesis" in a lobby. The guy which you (for no reason) made your rival and killing him gave that extra feeling of accomplisment. And because most lobbies would stay with almost the same players you'd keep that rivalry going, even though it was only in your own head. Also the fact that every map naturally created this "hot spot" that you'd fight over every game, and it was a different place every time.

    dude i spent 45days of my life playing this game and i dont regret a minute
  • Reporter: there is a game which allows u to be a terrorist and kill people Rockstar games: Oh no, not again.. wait it isn't me?

    Two words on why this is the greatest game of all time Burger Town
  • This game is so immersive and good. Takes me to the days when Activision actually cared about their fans and games and it was not all a money game 😭
  • one of my favorite things about the COD MW series is that they actually show you who the protagonists and antagonists are based on their colored subtitles. For example, you can tell who the protagonists and good guys because they have the green color. But in Black ops 3, all of the character's subtitles are red

    "ENEMY AC130 ABOVE!" struck terror in the hearts of so many

    "History is written by the victor, all it takes to change history is one good lie and a river of blood" This is one of the best quotes from COD in my on opinion of course
  • @buddy_3899
    I honestly think the EMP was probably the best part of the campaign, it felt like it hearkened back to WaW by focusing on an atmosphere and the movement and care that the soldiers have to take, rather than just being in full chaotic battles
  • @KrustyKrabbzy
    My buddy who’s never played the campaign told me he thought the mission title “No Russian” was entirely symbolic because Makarov already knows you’re an American. In the remastered campaign, the whole crew is even death-staring you before the elevator opens. 🤯 And I thought it was just cause it’s a cool sounding command, like Order 66
  • @ModestPelican
    bruh that was the quickest 45 minutes of my life I love your content.
  • @Caliburnz
    It’s all fun and games until you hear “ENEMY AC-130 ABOVE!”
