Graphics look better and the storyline is great. You play more than one character throughout this game and you see different perspectives. It is very cinematic which makes the game even better. Playability: 5 out of 5 Graphics: 4.5 out of 5 Controls: 5 out of 5 Audio: 5 out of 5 Story: 5 out of 5 Overall the game is very entertaining and worth the purchase. However, if you do decide to purchase the game, go ahead and try it on Hard or Veteran difficulty. It is mildly easy on hard, and I don't play too many first person shooters myself. Veteran will give you a good match throughout the game. Some annoying things that occurred throughout the game was dying from enemy grenades. At times, literally, bullets would stop flying at you and what seems to be 20 grenades fly at your feet surrounding you. I don't know if this is a life like reality or not, but it sure was annoying after the first 2 campaigns. A very disappointing aspect for me personally was the loss of 2 player co-op. Everyone loves to sit down with a buddy and blast away with enemies, working as a team and helping one another out. But Call of Duty decided to take that away from the previous version as they created this version. Overall, the game gets a 4.5 out of 5. It is still an excellent game and really fun. If you don't mind a short game and single player campaign, this is a great game for you. If you found this review helpful, please click the "Yes" button below! Thank you!

Great visuals, Fantastic score and great pacing. the first mission is a little misleading though...you squad are like super men...you could just watch and they would finish the level for you but after that the training wheels fly off!!!! My advice to staying alive in single player is follow orders and listen for enemy positions...you'll need all the help you can get. If your not a FPS vet pick normal or easy or you'll fall prey to what will no doubt feel like cheap deaths that could be avoided by veterans of the grenre. For those who pick the last two difficulties get ready for enemies that flank and rain grenades on you. Not to mention flash bang you can close in for the kill! these guys pack rpgs and have no problem using them. get ready for a tough fight. Presentation- Nice menus simple and to the point....maybe a little too simple. great mission briefings. Nice hud gives you all the info without the fluff. Graphics- Great visiuals from gritty backstreets to russian contrysides. nice details like rpg trails to the plume of smoke from an explosion. Framerate keeps at a steady pace even with all the action going on . Sound- The score is beautiful....moving, gets you in the action. Guns sound like they're supposed to with umph!. Top level of quality from evey bullet wiz to enemy chatter to com chatter...amazing job. Gameplay- Everything feels and plays smooth. The controls are great I never had problems aiming and taking out an enemy. The autosave is a life saver. mutiplayer could have used more game type though. Lasting Appeal- Fanastic singleplayer then throw in deathmatch, team deathmatch, capture the bomb plus downloadable content in the future..well it makes for a bright long future for Call of Duty. Overall- Its an amazing FPS that any 360 owner should look into buying, period. Review ID: 10000000004635546 Was this review helpful? Report this review |
