Great insert book. Interesting images....Game is great! Multiplayer is a blast. However, everyone is so good the learning curve is steep. Also, the online matchmaking doesnt pair equally skilled players together..... they should work on that. Overall I would purchase the game again... the Harden Edition is nice but it would not be worth paying any extra for it uless it is new and included the Call of Duty classic game that you can download off of Xbox Live.... If you dont have XBOX live I dont think the single player campaign is good enough to warrent a purchase... file this game under rental then. However, if you are going to play online multiplayer it is worth the cost.
For being 11 years old or so the only negative thing I have to say is the condition of the outer plastic sleeve, but its to expected. The steelbook and hardcover art book however are in great condition so I'm very satisfied with the purchase

One of the best games in the "Call of Duty" series yet. (MW2) Modern Warfare 2 is a worth wild game for anyone's game collection. Lots of great detail, not just in graphics, but in portraying US special forces. Also gun fans will go nuts which the selection of real life weapons found in this game. The game play seems to be well balanced and the scenarios although detailed are easy to grasp for those who are not military savvy. The only flaws I seen, the game seems too short and the controls seems to be a bit stiff. I am not sure if it is MW2 or it is just the design of the Xbox 360 controller. There is ONE controversial level where you play as a someone posing as a "terrorist", from a purely game play stand point there nothing wrong, but there will be players (and parents) who will morally object to this. It will be be individual players who must decide if that stage goes against there values. For those who wish not to play such "morally objectionable level", you do have the option of skipping it entirely. Skipping the "terrorist" stage will not effect game progression, game story or any Xbox achievements. Personally for me, knowing the difference between the fantasy world of the game and what is real life, I am not bothered by the brief level you play as a undercover solder posing as a "terrorist".Read full review
Modern Warfare 2 is a sharp-looking game with a real dedication to keeping its frame rate up. Its smooth frame rate is a real asset that makes the action look great, but it's also backed up by some good, solid animation and large areas that fill up with enemies. All hell breaks loose at several spots in the campaign, and the technology behind the action is more than up to the challenge. While it isn't an order of magnitude greater than Call of Duty 4 at first glance, the larger scope of some areas feel like things that might not have been possible before, at least not without sacrificing texture or model quality.
It is a great action game. I have played the campaign mode and I like the game play, the story line is quite interesting and the strategy involved in passing certain parts. I like better the Modern Warfare versions of Call of Duty than the original ones. So far, this one is my favorite (including Black Ops), but they all are a lot of fun for hours in front of the screen. In my opinion. The extra cost for the "hardened edition" is not worth it. Specially if bought used (no codes most likely). So you'll get a tin case that like in my case is quite scratched and dented.
Over the years the Call of Duty series has set the bar for immersive, action-packed, cinematic FPS gaming, and no matter what camp you're from there's no denying the franchise's influence on the industry. When Infinity Ward moved from the classic World War II setting and blazed new ground with Modern Warfare we saw the first obvious split within the world of Call of Duty. The series dropped its historic focus, created a new cast of characters, and began treading on new ground by taking the first-person shooter genre to new locales, and pushing the boundaries of what military games are willing to show. With Modern Warfare 2, the sheer amount of hype has been practically inescapable, with preorders alone setting it up as one of the biggest selling games of all time, the addition of even more multiplayer modes and features, and the game's new Special Operations mode has set Infinity Ward's lastest up as the game to beat in 2009.Read full review
I am a total fan of the Call of Duty Modern Warfare Series. I bought the Modern Warfare 2 Xbox 360 console, but the Hardened Edition comes with the book, and I love the collector editions with the metal case, for my favorite games.The Call of Duty download game, is a nice addition to the Hardened Version and makes the extra money spent seem well worth it. The single player story was solid, and the Special OPS missions are very challenging, I beat the game on Veteran setting, but I will be playing a long time to complete all the Special OPS missions. Multiplayer is awesome, and they just came out with a Stimulus package, to keep the Multiplayer FRESH with new maps. TOTALLY AWESOME!
the game was Awesome!

The hardened edition of MW2 is awesome. The tin can has a really cool art on it and the book is nicely made. The game plays very well and is very fun. I would rate the game 4.5 out of 5 which is very high. The campaign is extremely good but lacks replay value but the Multiplayer makes up for that by giving you hours of fun.
