Review Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 (PS5) - Infinity Ward Proves It Knows Best
The Price Is Right
As the development cycle of the Call of Duty series wraps back around to Infinity Ward, excitement in the FPS franchise feels renewed. Last year's Call of Duty: Vanguard will forever go down as a misfire, but after the success that was 2019's Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, Activision couldn't have wished for a better studio to take...
Review Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Campaign Remastered - FPS Classic Is Worth Revisiting
Stay frosty
Republished on Monday 27th July 2020: We're bringing this review back from the archives following the announcement of August's PlayStation Plus lineup. The original text follows. It's been nearly 11 years since Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 changed the game for online play on consoles. Capitalising on the popularity of Call of Duty 4:...
Review Call of Duty: Modern Warfare - A Great Campaign Rescues an Otherwise Safe Reimagining
Reboots on the ground
True to its name, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare retreads familiar territory, and in more ways than one.

Review Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare (PS4)
Mass defect
Microtransactions. Bleh. If there's one word that can put a foul taste in people's mouths, it's that. Disappointingly, Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare has them, and the game is much worse off for it.

Same old sheet
Over the past five years, the Call of Duty franchise has slow-motion breached its way into popular culture, with millions of fans worldwide eagerly enabling last year’s Call of Duty: Black Ops II to earn over $500 million in just 24 hours. Whether this trend continues remains to be seen, but the bigger question is: does Call of...
Review Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 (PlayStation 3)
A master of its craft
This title may feel familiar, but its similarity is hard to criticise when the core components are this good. A speculative campaign and a freshly balanced multiplayer component headline Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, and while the visual engine is looking a bit tired, its penchant for addictive gunplay remains unmatched...
Review Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 (PlayStation 3)
World at war
Picking up the epic arc of events in Infinity Ward's blockbuster Call Of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 is the much-hyped continuation of the near-future storyline. Modern Warfare 2 crafts a darker, grittier plot than Call of Duty 4, but it's also less grounded. Set roughly ten years in the future, you'll play as...
