This is Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, the "Cliffhanger" level. Played on PC by me, then edited by me. This level is one of the first that Infinity Ward demoed, and one of my favourites. Notice how the designers have spent a tremendous amount of time to really direct the player's experience in single player, and to keep the pace exhilarating, and to give the player fresh experiences throughout the level. I really like how they actively use Captain MacTavish to showcase cool stuff, as well as giving you instructions on how to use certain equipment, and gradually through the level going from being the one who needs to be saved by MacTavish (during the ice climbing) to be the one who saves MacTavish (during plan B), and to the final escape side by side. This is a great example of really good leveldesign, writing, gameplay, cinematic moments and set pieces, and it just makes me happy to play :)
