i noticed that several people gave this game 1 or 2 stars, it really doesn't deserve that. its one of the greatest games outhere. graphicalwise its the best, no doubt. the rain & lighting, , & the sound overall effects are awesome. the framerate is sweet, & the open-world feeling is perfect. its as horrific as being inside a war, specially at the beginning on campaing mode when you experience being the president...driven all the way to your execution deathpole, while being filmed on tv AND THEN BEING SHOT!!!! REMEMBER!! your'e in first person view, so its even more disturbing!!! first time i see this on a war game...thats creepy, too realistic for a videogame, it really takes you to the horror and makes you appreciatte what our soldiers go thru in the middle east. this is not a rambo or commando like videogame ,where you always prevail, in this game, the enemy dont give a rat's a#* who you are. they will team on you, hunt you down, and give you a bulletbath. the way its supposed to be. real fighting.
why i dont give this a 5???????
- the impact of the bullets are too arcade: they really dont go with the realism of the game, i though i was playing, typing of the dead or something. i shot the enemy many times and no extra blood, no nothing, they just blink a little bit....( that sucks)..
- on single campaign, you almost dont have to anything ( just run): yup, the team does all the fighting for you, its almost like they dont let you or they don't want you to take a piece of the pie, always hogging over your targets like ( NO, MAN THATS MY TARGET, GET LOST , YOU SUCK!!!!!) that type of thing..its annoying, and it really makes you wanna go back to the rambolike games, where you kill everything that moves..( oh some ducks in the air, let me shoot em and get some health & the spread gun!!!!) ;)
- too short for single campaign: it is what it is, too short. a little 5-7 extra hours on campaing would have been great..
if you skip or ignore all of this -, then the game is perfect.
Best PS3 Game Yet!!

This is by far the best game on Playstation 3 . I don't have an Xbox so I won't say it ranks above Gears or Halo, but it has to be close. I have completed each level and I'm not tired of the game. Online is great also. Every PS3 owner should get this game.

When I first started playing this game on campaign mode, it was fun, challenging at some points but entirely too short. The campaign could use some length (as with any video game now-adays) although what was available was well written. The thing that i liked best about this game was its multiplayer ability. It reminded me of the good (and cheaper) days of Goldeneye 007 for good old Nintendo 64. Although much better graphics, obviously, and better game engine altogether, this game will just as much be a multiplayer classic as that was, far outdoing the overated Halo multiplayer capabilities where players see who can jump around the best and get a headshot, CoD4 requires less time to become a decent (more time to become excellent) player, allowing people to pick up the game and perform competently enough to grow a few ranks and have fun not getting sniped every time they spawn (in most cases haha).
Great Game

los graficos son buenos, pero lo que no me gusto es que causa un poco de confucion el no saber quienes son tus aliados (por que nunca vas solo)sino hasta que los tienes en la mira. por ese detalle le resto una estrella!
Close, but non-realistic, and Very Fun

Based on the other reviews you might think that this game is either great or horrible. I think it's actually a fun game to play and experience.
The Single Player:
The story is fun to play, yes it's missing that co-op option, but it's an interesting story that jumps from person to person's viewpoint with a couple of fun little encounters along the way.
There is some leeway in playing (it is linear but you can stray a little from the parameters) but you have to remember some of the aspects are disturbing. Namely, sometimes you HAVE to hit a certain spot for the next part to advance (or automatically save). In other cases this certain spot will trigger the stop of the flow of endless enemies. This can be annoying because you have limited ammo and have to reach that "checkpoint" to stop the flow.
The story can be completed in about two nights on "Regular"/Normal difficulty if you're like me and don't play straight through. So fairly short, but some fun missions to go back and try on "Arcade." With the AC-130 Gunship and Ghillie suit missions being my personal faves.
The Multiplayer:
This may very well be the reason to get the game.
I say this because of the many variants/options that can be exercised. The PERK system is a neat addition, allowing for you to customize the type of soldier you're sending out there.
It may take a few games to unlock the other modes of gameplay, but once you do, you'll have plenty of options to pick from (not just Team Deathmatch and Free for All). The rank also unlocks weapons, perks, and challenges. The challenges allow for you to gain additional points (experience needed for rank) and are also fun to try and obtain. So many kills with a certain weapon, headshots w/ that weapon, etc. etc.
It's true that the game does look good and plays well. Sometimes in multiplayer the connection is lost, but that is very rare. The Lobby for matchmaking can be frustrating at times trying to find an online game to join, but with a little patience it usually comes up with no problem and you're off in no time. (Update: with a recent update/patch to the game seems the wait time is even decreased for matchmaking)
The Multiplayer portion is definitely the meat of this game. A shame that there aren't more maps, but the ones that they do have are pretty fun. A person can spend a LOT of time online.
Try messing around with the "Create a Class" option, and set up a couple different profiles for you to pick from during an online game. This is where the choice of weapons and perks really comes in handy.
For instance if you've unlocked the "Dead Silence" perk, you can couple that with a silencer on your weapon and the enemy won't see or hear you coming (until the UAV is enabled, but you can use the UAV Jamming perk to block it if you wish).
Another really nice perk I'll mention-- just as another example-- is the "Sleight of Hand" for faster reloading times. This REALLY comes in handy for the LMGs that have a long reload time. But basically, customize your class the way you'd like. There are a lot of options once you've unlocked enough of the ranks to be able to utilize all the different weapons, weapon customizations, and perks.

This is a great game that is worth every penny, and it is not a cheep game. If you are a fan of COD or especially MOH, get the game. the graphics are 10 times better than the graphics on the ps2. If you have a ps3 buy the game. You are not a reel gammer intil you get it.
