I'm just a casual gamer who doesn't do online MMP,etc., just enjoys graphics, action, etc. As some already pointed out, it was a very short game. I'm also not sure if it's a clone of another COD game, as each scene seemed to be the same as the other game (can't remember the exact title). If you can get it cheap, then I would say it's a good one. The graphics are good and the action can be intense. If you are a hard core gamer, then I would suggest you pass on this.

this is one of the best call of duty games I've ever played, it has a great storyline that makes you feel like this game is a movie. This is a game that will make you go WOW!!! It is very good game If I was trying to get someone to try a call of duty game I would tell them to try this game.

Big improvement over other COD games

I bought COD3 for my long-in-the-tooth-but-still-kicking XBOX before I got any other COD games and was quite impressed with the graphics, gameplay etc. as other reviewers have noted.

Now that I just finished COD2 Big Red ONE, I can say there is a HUGE difference in COD3 - it's much better

What I was particularly impressed with is the game AI. In Big Red One, it seems every German took 2-3 shots to kill - reminded me of the old Wolfenstein or Doom days. They just kept popping up again like punching bags.

This is MUCH better in COD3, as is the interaction w/ your squad mates.

Unlike other people, I found it tough to plays this 1-2 hours at a time. I'm afraid I rand through it in about 3 sessions including a few late nights early into the morning. I guess that is a test of how good a game is.

Intense, but not incredible

Well, to start out, the game is full of fun action, next to you there might be a German ready to take you down with his rifle in hand to hand combat, one behind a door waiting to shoot you, or a Panzer tank that will blow you to pieces. You get to play as the Americans(favorite), which just completely invade the Germans. The Polish who bring in their armor and blow up the Germans. The Canadians, I can't really say, they just come in with nice supply of troops. But I was upset with the gameplay of the "British" you play more like a special soldier, because you mainly fight with the French guys who die really easily and speak to much French, while your hardcore British ally is arguing with them. You only get to fight as a soldier or command a tank, no boats, no planes, but it is still fun because there is so much chaos, and explosions, tanks, soldiers, air raids, and artillery (this amount of chaos is only put in some levels). The graphics are nice and the details are put in well but they are NOT perfect. However, the movie graphics are amazing and I enjoy watching them, with the option to view movies, guns, vehicles, and characters - which is very nice. Overall the game is fun and historically accurate, even with a few interviews of real soldiers added in. But also the game is short and limited with only 14 levels of playing as 4 different allied soldiers, only in the Battle of Normandy/France... it goes no further. I would recommend buying this game for a cheap price if you can find it.

The player has less control over the health of the soldier. Health restores after a few seconds of avoiding fire rather than picking up first aid packets. This is not a bad thing but needs to be gotten used to. The computer appears to do more for you than in call of duty 2 which makes it an easier game to just pick up and play but also negates the skills learned in playing the other call of duty releases. Overall it has excellent graphics and is an enjoyable experience.

same old same old but fun

As a casual gamer that plays perhaps 1-2 hours per day then this is a great game. I would say that I would love to pick this game if I wanted something to destress my day after work or after playing a hardcore game for 8 hours. This is your simple mindless shooting game where you can run around and shoot your enemies. The cuts scenes are nice but I play at night and hardly have the volume up since others are sleeping. So far I haven't found anything that the cut scene has that was crucial so your basic "find enemy and shoot" is your goal. Map design is a bit boring and like the other reviewer has said the textures tend to repeat a lot. You'll often wonder where to go because the trees are blocking your view but your team mates sort of prompts you on where to go which is good because it gives a realistic feel. Even though you'll often go gun crazy in this game you wont feel as if you're rambo because there are always team members folowing or leading. The bad part is that sometimes it is very hard to know who the enemy is if you plan on taking an alternate path.

The battles: They are very gripping and fun to play through. Levels are mostly lineer with nav points on the radar prompting you where to go. Nothing too complicated. The melee punches are fun to use but the grenade seems to be rather useless at times. Can't shoot and throw a granade at the same time. Players stand there winding up a granade and hope that the soldier's A.I. isn't smart enough to see you. Often times I would empty several more rounds into an enemy that is already dead but I could not tell because his death animation ended above the ground making him look as if he was standing.

Finaly thoughts: Its a fun game to rent or just pick up for cheap. Short and gets to the point. I'm sure you'll know exacty what you will get.

This game is the best COD game they have made. I was amazed when they released onto Xbox and the 360. The Graphics are amazing. The Game play is a little easy, but great overall. Buy this game!

The campaign details are very good. The game is very enjoyable, but it does not have the multi-player option. I wish I knew that before I bought it.
