Sweet game. Very different than the first one with longer campaigns for the british this time. I do like the change in the sniper rifle that they added for the xbox, in that it's easier to steady your aim with it.
The problem I have sometimes in the game is that I forget with button does a smoke grenade (LB) and which does a frag grenade (RB).
Another thing is I don't do the auto aim that is in the game this time. As soon as you look down your sites, you are aiming closer to the nearest enemy. Not always directly on, but closer, and sometimes directly on.
The British campaigns are awesome. The Russian campaigns, since they do start the game, are easier than the American and British (order goes Russian, British, American). The british campgain is the longest of the 3, but is totally OK. The american campgains are the hardest.
If you are playing this game, you need a memory unit (aka, memory card, but they call them units now...) unless you happen to have a spare 10 hours of nothing to do (I beat normal in 8).
Way way better AI in this game than in just about any other game I've played.
Anyone else played it yet?

I should get me one of those there xbox things.
I got out of gaming after Nintendo 64. Never even bought a PS2.
I think in the year when the prices drop a bit, and Nintendo comes out with their new system I'll decide which is best and I'll get back into gaming with that. By then, all the cool games out right now will be cheaper.

Yeah, it's definitely a really fun game. The best one for the 360 so far if you ask most people. The British and American campaigns are really fun, and pretty diverse. I like the premise for the American levels where you fight your way to the top of the hill, and then hold it. That was neat.
Also, you could just save on the harddrive if you have one.
Multiplayer is really fun too. Online has extremely limited options, but split screen with 4 people is possibley one of the most fun things ever. The "Kill Cam" was a great idea. Whenever you die, it shows you a video of about 15 seconds from before you died, from the persons point of view that killed you. I can't tell you how many times my friends and me have laughed, and then said, "Guys, check out his Killcam", and then we all see it and start cracking up. Very fun game overall.
