I am a huge WWII videogame fan. I own Medal of Honor Frontline, Rising Sun, Allied Assault, European Assault, and Heroes. I also own this game and might buy Call of Duty Roads to Victory,3, and 2. I was seriously surprised when I played CoD Finest Hour. Starting off, it only uses about 60 KB of memory card space. The unique thing about Call of Duty is that you get to be put into several soldiers shoes, which you don't experience in MoH. The storyline is great, not containing any trace of cheesiness, and takes place in Russia, North Africa, and the Battle of the Bulge. The graphics are top notch, making it feel more realistic. The guns look very similar to their real-life counterparts and sound realistic as well. Some features that help gameplay are realistic shellshock, gun ironsights, very fun multiplayer, and the ability to drive tanks. Overall, I give this 5 stars and seriously recommend that you own it. It will bring enjoyment every time you play and will never get old.

Really fun game overall. I'm a big sniping fan, so I get excited when I can use that option to my advantage. Unfortunately though, seems it was used just a couple times in the first couple levels. There is a lot here that I haven't experienced in a WWII FPS...shooting down planes, operating tanks, using a variety of guns not previously used in a combat game, etc...My BIGGEST complaint though, is the comrade simulation. My guys can stand in front of a German, shoot him multiple times, yet the German doesn't die, and ends up wacking my guy. Many a time my comrades are fleeced from me and I don't even notice. They are weak and seem to be filler material, or to give the impression of a squad unit. That's why you need to keep all you med kits for yourself unless the objective is to protect a certain comrade to point B through a highly overwhelming gun fight. It's a keeper of a game, not perfect, but fun for what it is.

I definitely recommend COD:Big Red One over this one.

Don't buy this game. Not even for your worst enemy. Annoying sound track, lame story line and game gliches too numerous to list. What were these people thinking? My copy will be going to the nearest landfill ASAP. I refuse to subject anyone else to this game by selling it.

BEST GAME EVER!

the bad: The Ai are not very good, I truly expeted more from the tank missions. all in all I rate this game 5 stars. If you want a good WWII game get this one

Reviewed for Big Boss Games by: L.E.G.

As a lover and avid player of FPS (First Person Shooter) type games, I am probably one of the toughest critics and a game must satisfy all my criteria for me to give it a 5/5 rating. Without any doubts, Call of Duty Finest Hour has successfully accomplished this lofty goal.

To start with, Call of Duty Finest Hour is entirely based on events that happened during World War II. But, ActiVision took on a bigger role than just making a video game and actually tries and succeeds in teaching us a brief history lesson. Granted it's very short and concise, but it helps to setup the game and it's many diverse and challenging levels.

You start out playing as a member of the Russian Army fighting with your comrades on the Eastern Front, from the Volga to Stalingrad. The missions can be somewhat difficult to finish, but the squad leader does give you instructions (just as if you were in the army) on what you need to do or where you need to go. "Blow up that building" and "Take out those machine guns" are typical fare. And most of the time you are a member of a "squad", so don't try to be all "Rambo" and try to defeat the Germans all by yourself. You will get slaughtered!

After you complete your mission(s) as one person, you are then placed in someone else's shoes and get to fight the war from their perspective. Which also opens you up to using different weapons and driving around in tanks. But, this is not Grand Theft Auto. You can't go around and jump in vehicles and take off. Your tour of duty on the Eastern Front with the Russians takes a total of 8 sometimes-grueling missions. At least the game is very forgiving and lets you restart the mission at the last checkpoint.

After the Eastern Front, you are whisked off to North Africa to serve with the British Army in Tunisia. All of the buildings and backgrounds used in this game are simply amazing. There is a lot of rich and articulate detail to keep your attention. You will serve a total of 4 missions with the bulldogs. More neat weapons used by the Brits and a lot of blowing stuff up in these levels. G-D Save the Queen!

And last, but not least, you go to the Western Front to fight with the American Army. As in previous levels, you get more awesome weapons to shoot and tanks to drive. Some of the toughest battles will be fought with the Americans. A total of 7 missions await your shooting skills.

Call of Duty Finest Hour by ActiVision is available for the Playstation 2, Xbox and Gamecube. It is rated "T" for Teen and contains a ton of blood and a whole lot of violence. Since this game is based on World War II, blood and violence is to be expected. Total missions are 19 and 23 different weapons.

This game is Single Player only, but does offer multiplayer online broadband only and 2-16 players. Online gametypes are: Deathmatch, Team Deathmatch, Capture the Flag and Search & Destroy.
Overall, this game was as close to perfect as they can get with very few technical glitches. Like one time I was crawling around on the floor and trying to climb a flight of stairs and my character just fell through some empty space to his terrible death.

This game was just so well balanced between missions, story, music and action that I had to give it a 5/5.

It's really an awesome game, so go ahead and get a copy.

couldn't play it
