Call of Duty 3 (Xbox 360, 2006)

Here is my opinion for Call of Duty 3.

The Good:
The graphics seems a little bit more polished. I like the wavy grass when you are running through the field. It also seems they tried to add a little more realism with the screen going a little blurry when there are a lot of explosions and bullets flying around you.

Even when trying to get the achievements on Veteran difficulty, you bullets are very effective. The FG42 will kill with 1 shot.

There is also an improvement of your squad members. They don't always wait for you to make the first move. Many will storm ahead of you often to help identify where enemies are.



The Bad:

FIRST AND FOREMOST IS THE CHECKPOINT SYSTEM. Even though you get to the checkpoints, it doesn't save every time as in previous CODs. You have have a good run but get killed and find your self having to do everything all over again.

Its frustrating to see your squad members and enemies stand toe to toe, empty a full clip and nobody gets killed.

You enter a room with your squad members have stormed into 5 seconds ahead and when you walk in, a guy in plain sight with his back turned to you turns around and shoots you.

Your squad members try to shoot through the wall and don't realize they aren't helping the cause.

The enemy notices you from 100 feet away with his back towards you and you didn't fire a single shot.

There are some situations where the enemy is dug in and no matter how careful you are, you will be shot and killed without seeing who did it.

Chapter 8 "We have the cross the road". You will hear this A LOT!!!!!!! (see checkpoint complaint)

There are times when you shoot an enemy who is hiding behind a tree or stair rail and no matter how many time you shoot him, he will not die because your bullets hit the tree, even if he sticks his head out to see where you are.

You aren't able to jump over or you get stuck simple things that shouldn't be any problem when trying to get away from grenades and bombs. Even getting out of trenches becomes a problem.

In the end, COD 3 is worth playing.
