Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 Review

There have been many advances recently in the world of first-person shooter video games. However, there have been few times where a shooter with so few tangible gameplay advances has made such a big splash in this field of games as Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2.

First let me say that the graphics in Modern Warfare 2 are some of the best that are available on the market today. With its wonderful use of colors and locations, the art style matches beautifully with the general concept of the game. You should also know that the sound of this game is truly excellent, with the explosions really bringing you into the action and the gunfire feeling vivid and distinct as you enter a world of true chaos upon the battlefield.

Much more important than the graphics and sound however is the gameplay itself. The first Modern Warfare game was generally considered to be an extremely well-balanced and challenging game. You can say no less about its sequel. Modern warfare to have some of the absolute best first-person shooter gameplay ever to grace the multiplayer scene. Add to this a well-designed and rewarding system of unlocked achievements and titles and you have a truly addictive game. The only thing I can say against modern warfare to is the fact that its single player campaign, while truly epic and mind-blowing, is sadly very short. But you will barely notice this the moment you enter a team deathmatch on Xbox Live.

Google Chrome Review

Among all the top end web browsers available, Google Chrome holds its own among the big names in the industry. The two browsing titans have been clashing ever since Netscape bit the dust, and yet they are plagued by the same issues they had when they began. Internet Explorer has enough security holes to easily cause much more trouble than it is worth. Firefox is secure, sure, but is the sacrifice in speed worth it?

Chrome on the other hand has neither of these drawbacks. Speed and safety are highest on the list of Chrome’s best features. Add to this a slick, streamlined user interface and a good range of features, and you have quite the winning package. Google’s browser does have its limitations however. The most prominent of these is the crippling lack of any support for add-ons. This will most likely be addressed at some future time, at which time Chrome will likely come out far in the lead.
