He also commented that there are a total of 69 stars that brings the mission count in SpecOps to 23. To achieve all 3 stars on each mission will make the game a bit more lengthy.

On September 10, 2009 New York Times had an article titled as “10 Games You Can Count On” by Seth Schiesel. In this article Modern Warfare 2 is counted as one of those games. Schiesel says that in recent years many publishers feel that a big game can only succeed if released after Labor Day. According to Schiesel, Modern Warfare 2 is going be a very successful game regardless of its time of release. He also notes
“Without question the most anticipated title of the fall for core gamers, Modern Warfare 2 is expected to succeed its predecessor as the most sophisticated and intense yet accessible digital rendition of today’s battlefields. Of course it’s still a game, but Modern Warfare 2, set largely in Central Asia, is meant to get players as close to the action as possible without actually strapping on a flak jacket.”
