Mission Completed

Just completed this game. I’m almost inclined to call it an interactive movie. It’s an epic, so cinematic, in-your-face, feel-like-you’re-there experience that surpasses my other first-person shooter endeavors.

I’m going to move on to Special Ops next and hope to quickly get on to Multiplayer. I only got one Achievement after this last mission, “Endgame”:

• For The Record

In the future, I will go through the campaign missions in Hardened and then Veteran difficulty levels. I will also attempt to get all Intel items.

My Campaign Play Time as of now is 07:23:27. Funny, though, my Campaign completion is a little above 50%. Could this be due to the Bonus Mission? It shouldn’t be 50% worth?!?!

Almost There!

Had my third MW2 Campaign session last night but afterwards my wife and I went to see the movie “New Moon” at 12:30 A.M. and got home around 3:30 so I didn’t have time to post this then.

I made it as far as “Just Like Old Times”, which is the mission before last. So I’m almost there! Below are the Achievements I got during this session:

• Unnecessary Roughness
• Soap On A Rope
• Desperate Times
• Whiskey Hotel
• The Pawn
• Out Of The Frying Pan

Second Session

Just finished my second round of Modern Warfare 2; it just keeps getting better. It’s like every mission is epic. Some stand out a lot more than others but all are amazing.

My current mission is “The Gulag” in Act II and I’ve gotten the following achievements:

• Ten Plus Foot Mobiles
• Royale With Cheese
• Knock Knock

Not as many as my first session but it’s okay. I’ll get the rest…or at least try to, lol.

First Session, Done!

Just finished my first MW2 session and my first impression is…WOW! INTENSE! AMAZING! EXCITING!

It seems rather easy on Regular (which is what I’m playing — won’t bother with Recruit) but I did die quite a bit. I attempted using the default stick layout controls but I couldn’t stick to it and changed it to my “Southpaw” mid-way. Made it through the famous “No Russian” mission, I will reserve judgement.

I saved it just at the beginning of Act II, “Wolverines!”. So far I’ve gotten the following Achievements (I assume most people will get the same??):

• Back In The Saddle
• Three-some
• Danger Close
• No Rest For The Wary
• Two Birds One Stone
• Cold Shoulders
• Tag ‘Em & Bag ‘Em

Can’t wait for tomorrow’s session.
