I like it a lot... The single player campaign picks up at mission 3 where you are you are converging on a TV station. About mi way through that mission you get cornered in a lley that picks up the pace and then you move on to the TV station which is fairly difficult.
It is esstentially CoD2 graphically improved, AI improved, and set in modern times. Unlike CoD2 I haven;t had any issues making the timeframes required on some missions. And the sniper level is not as difficult. But, non the less it is an improvement on CoD2...
Some of the story elements are kind of misguided... For example, you surround the TV station, then you have to go in to extract the bad guy... In reality I they would probably just call an air strike knowing the danger level inside. Then, you go to some remote locations and are going after bad guys... Again, I think they would have just called for air strikes. I think the story is good but weak in reality... Normally, you would not send troops directly unless you wanted to avoid civilian casualties (Or at least I assume that) or to mop up after air strikes.
Deserving of 9's out of 10... Not deserving of GOTY because it is only an incrmental improvement on CoD2/3
