COD 4

CALL OF DUTY 4 plays like a movie, which is to say that it's intensely action packed, has a lot of incredible moments, a fun story, and ends within a matter of hours.

The story of course stretches reality just a bit, but no more than your average action film, and the locations and situations you get into are all pretty cool. There weren't any parts I didn't like until the last level where I felt like I was just playing some average shooter instead of a Call of Duty game, mostly because the fighting was reduced to running through corridors shooting from the hip pretty much at all times and throwing grenades when enemies got too blocked up. I guess I could have slowed down and played it more precisely, but the run and gun was what was working and anyway in the first half of this there was a time limit to get to a certain location. But this didn't really detract from the game as a whole anyway.

The graphics are great, and especially shine on the level where you have to sneak around Cherynobyl in a camo suit. This level also had some of the most heartstopping moments in the game, and without any massive explosions or anything like that.

A few more hours on the game wouldn't have worked with the story very well, but that should have been changed just a bit because as is the game is quite short. I don't mind though, because even though I don't have XBOX Live at the moment, I am more than happy replaying the levels.

Blew my mind

This game is a must buy for any 360 console owner. The graphics, story, and online play are second to none!

Best COD yet...

This is by far the best CALL OF DUTY yet.
Better graphics, better missions, better weapons, if you are having any doubts because of the previous CODs it's time to realize this is not 1,2, or 3. This is a whole new animal...and it is awesome. If you've played any of the older versions, you'll see a huge difference with this game. Could possibly be the best game of '07, with only MADDEN 08 standing in it's way.
Go out and get it...this is what a real shooter is all about.

Someone is being paid off

After playing this game at my friends apartment I was mixed about the online gameplay. Far too easy (yet realistic) to die. The categories of guns range from close range to long range yet the bullets are 80-100% accurate if single fired at any range from any weapon through most objects. The story mode is good, but let me lay down the facts that this game does VERY LITTLE to offer anything new to the table on any front. Graphics are clunky and clay like (which the 360 suffers from), the AI and enemy units for single players seem to have active GPS devices with your location while being stamped out of a nearby factory like gnats. The story is ok, not moving in any regard. For online, people are classically praying and spraying their guns with random effects. Boring maps with the same old crap. Everything is colored the same and bumped the same (yes realistic) but again adding to the (oh hey I found you let me pray and spray).

I was first addicted to this game but after 2 months I'm ready to trade it in and move on to something other then a saturated market of fps.

One of the best first person shooter's out today

What can I say.. The single play campaign is short but amazing... This is how you tell a story. Could have been twice as long but WOW.

The Multi-player xbox live is so much fun (if you like FPS's), great maps, smooth as all get out, just wonderful...

It's all about Call of Duty 4, Gears of War and Halo 3... These are the 3 kings of multi-player games out there and you should have them in your collection. Takes time to get good at it and you have to put up with a lot of jerks on like but so worth the investment.

Pay Attention to the Rating

I own all of the game in this series, and play them often with my 13 year old son. On a recent trip to Normandy, he was well versed in the details of the battle based in part of some of his experience with the Call of Duty series. I picked up the latest installment on the day of its release, but I failed to notice that it is rated "M" for mature, as opposed to "T" as were the previous installments.

The rating is appropriate, so much so that I found the game totally inappropriate for a 13 year old. Islamic extremists, abduction, rendition, nuclear terror attacks and the like may be, unfortunately, a reality of today's world; however, I have no intention of simulating them in my family room. I sold the game second-hand and bought Guitar Hero III for him.

As an aside, I think the game it well done, and if you are an adult who can easily separate simulation from reality, you'll like the game. Just be careful with the kids.

One of the Best Games on the 360

The graphics in this game are the best you will see on any game for the 360. I haven't played this on a standard-def tv so I'm basing this off playing on an HDTV, but the graphics are probably still great in standard def. Great lighting and great detail in this game, certain things will look very close to real if you have a good HDTV.

The campaign is fun and just the right length. Nothing bad to say about the campaign at all.

The online is obviously the biggest part of this game. Most people who buy this game for the online play. It has a great rank setup, it also tells you your kills, deaths, kill-death ratio, accuracy, and more. Most maps are fun to play and are nicely designed. This game is a little arcadey. Your kill streaks give you certain features (3 kills in a row gives you an enemy radar, 5 kills gives you an airstrike, 7 kills a helicopter) I don't mind it, but some people think the way they made it is stupid. But overall the online is probably the best on the 360, some people will say Halo 3 but I think this game is liked more.

Online is where this game shines

While the single player game starts off a little slow, it does pick up for a good story/game that is worth playing.

Now the online content is what puts this game at the top of the titles you must have for your XBOX.

From individual and team death match to hardcore (No HUD, no radar...most of the time..) along with team games, such as search and destroy, headquarters.... this is where it's at!!!

Online play is fast and furious. It does take some time to adjust to, so if at first you are not doing well... it happened to all of us.

Once you get the hang of the game play and ability to change your weapons and change your perks (abilities that affect your damage, health & additional weapons) you will keep on playing to either max out all your weapons or max out your prestige. Even when that's completed the game play will have you coming back for more!

I was a Halo 3 online player, but rarely have I played Halo anymore because it's just too slow and not as satisfying as COD4.

Best Game 2007

Call of Duty 4 is a system seller.

This is the best online console game.

If you have a militay backround, it is still a good game. Lots of older gamers like this game too.

Fantastic! and Superior Graphics!!

If your a fan of any kind of shooter game, you will love this game. This game is great for anyone that loves picking up and controller and killing the bad guy. And the graphics make it an even more great experience. And the most admirable thing about it is the Online play. There is a innovative leveling up system where the more you play/kill the enemies online, the more experience points you get. And the more XP you get the closer you get to being "promoted". And the higher your promoted the more guns you unlock and attachments for the guns. And little abilities or, "Perks". Awesome awesome awesome
