First I want to say this game is amazing, graphics and sound are top notch. Multiplayer is just as amazing, if not better than the previous modern warfare. The only thing keeping this game from being a 9.5 or even a 10 is the fact that Infinity Ward didn't bother giving you a better single player experience. You can finish the single player in 5 hours or even less depending on how good you are. Plenty of games out there have been penalized more for having 6-8 hours of single player (Heavenly Sword--although it didn't have a multiplayer aspect). The AI can sometimes get in the way, but nowhere near as bad as other FPS games. You're offered a good mix of action/adventure as well. The snow scene was amazing where you drive a snow mobile down a slope. Unfortunatley, scenes like this were short, rewarding, but left you wanting more. I hope the next installment would give fans a longer single player game. So, if you're looking for a good single player game and not the type to play online, then you may be better off renting this game, but if you love playing online with top notch graphics/sound, and play a good, but short single player game, then this is a MUST BUY.
