It's a bit long, but it's their longer review of MW2 and they cover the campaign, Special Ops, and Multiplayer separately
A good view for anyone that wants to learn more about the game but haven't bought it yet.
One particular thought that I thought was good discussion was regarding the airport level. I don't want to spoil the game for anyone (the video will show what happens, so I guess spoiler alert). Basically, they were saying that the level didn't need to be there, and that a cut scene would have been enough. All it accomplishes is to piss off Fox news and the other conservatives figure heads that have been speaking on video game violence
On the flip side of the Airport argument, if movies/TV can depict something similar to the airport scene, why not video games? If video games are to be considered as mainstream entertainment/art like TV and movies, they need to take risks and push boundaries. Although the story in MW2 is pretty weak, I would consider a game like Bioshock to be a much better narrative then a lot of traditional media.
