COD4 is a great shooter game but I was expecting much more after reading all the reviews from many experts and even for this game been chosen the game of the year 2007. Resistance is still my first shooter game for PS3, maybe because I prefer to play offline, by the way COD4 is one of the best games to play online..

This game is a true masterpiece that will bring you back again and again. The campaign is short, but is interesting and fun 100% of the time. The multiplayer though is what makes this game amazing. It has an enormous community, with dedicated fans. If your reading this, and have never played call of duty 4 before, then beware! When you try and play online, you will be slaughtered because many people have been playing this game religiously for a year, and have honed their skills down the point where you would last 10 seconds in a match before being killed. If your buying it for the campaign, then i say buy it now! this game is truly a piece of video game history. it is a must buy.

Excellent Game

This video is excellent, what mas I am overawed is that when it goes off we realize movements very similar to those that we realize in the reality.

Fun for a little bit

This was a really fun game. I played the single player mode and it was cool to go on the different missions. The multiplayer mode is a lot of fun, unless you're new and playing with veterans. The reason i rated it 3 stars is because the play control is absolutely terrible. It was a very poor choice to make it so you have to aim with 2 joysticks. I wanted to rate this game higher because it really is fun to play. However i just can't get over the controls. Unless you play this game 24/7 you'll have trouble aiming. I'd definitely recommend playing this game though.

Great for shooter and non shooter players alike

COD 4 is a great game that's consistently fun and playable for all players. I am a casual player and I had no trouble enjoying the fast paced single player mode. The story is hardly there, but the gameplay is first rate. The guns and missions always keeps things varied and interesting. Then there is the multiplayer modes-the heart of the experience. Here you'll find the the deep weapon customization options for the hardcore, and the jump in and play gameplay for the casual gamers. I'm not that into first-person shooters and yet I found myself enjoying the free-for-all battles online, running smoothly without a single hitch.
The best, most fun shooter for everyone, nuff said.

Short, short, short.

This game was fun and well implemented but.... RIDICULOUSLY SHORT. I finished it in under 6 hours and I'm not even a very good player. I don't know how they could award this game "Game of the Year." I feel ripped off for my money.... this did not feel like a full length game.

Great Game - My Husband Loves It!!!

This game keeps my husband playing for hours and hours. He is constantly after my two boys (both video game junkies) to play with him. Great game, great graphics. Note to wives - will give you some free time :)

One of the Best Shooters Out There

If you love playing Unreal or Halo, this game will probably catch you off guard. However, in the recent surge of "realistic" shooters, COD4 really seems to take the cake. The story mode is enthralling through most of the missions. If you haven't played many next-gen games before this, you'll likely play through the first mission with your jaw on the floor. The game looks very detailed and gameplay is smooth and entertaining.

Even as good as the one-player missions are, the real reason for buying this or most shooters is for the online play. You'll find plenty of opponents waiting online in one of the many gameplay types. Online games range from 4-18 players depending on the mode, and it has a big effect. Smaller games will make you feel a little more adrenaline because you don't know where the next enemy is going to jump out. Some of the bigger games can be a little more laid back, and make it easier to play without be afraid of dying.

The interface of the game is well-made, controls are smooth, even if they may take a few plays to get used to, and sounds and visuals are realistic for the weapons and maps. This is not a game where you can run straight through the middle of a field and come out on the other side alive, since 3-4 bullets from many guns will kill you. That said, a lot of the games will require you to out-think your online foes, or at least be quicker to the draw.

This Game of the Year edition of COD4 comes with (I believe) 4 extra maps in a "map pack", a $10 value for free. This was not a breaking point for me in the purchase, but some of them are pretty cool. When you enter the code in the Playstation Store and download the maps, you then install them to the HDD and they are immediately playable in split-screen and online modes. They are all pretty fun to play, but if you can find COD4 without the GOTY distinction for a cheaper price (I'd say at least $10) go ahead and pick it up. The extra maps aren't really used enough to be necessary.

All in all, it's the best shooter in terms of realism I've played to this point, and I'd recommend this game for anyone who enjoys shooters (with a little strategy) or anyone who likes military games, because this game immerses you in military lingo and strategy, especially in the solo missions.

Great game but.....

This was a good game. The feel that you were actually on the front lines was there but the single player is so darn short!!! I finished it in one day (with shopping and a 2 hour nap break!) And the multiplayer was OK. It looks great, feels great, but at least make it last a day!!!
