One of the most replayable games ever.August 15, 2008 PROS: - Best graphics you can get on the PS3 - Addictive online gameplay will keep you hooked for YEARS.
CONS: - No dualshock 3 support. - story mode is only 5-6 hours depending on how good you are. - Even though the online is the best part of CoD4, 50% of the time your game will be abruplty ended by the host or a connection failure. It can get pretty annoying.
So pretty much the online is what you'll be doing 99% of the time even though it has it's flaws. If you don't have a high speed connection I recommend you rent it.
Although its shortAugust 2, 2008 This game will be hard to top! its been a while since it came out already but still, this game was just rockin from top to bottom. I mean it was authentic to the point where they really sound like the air force when they were on that ac-130 gunship. the only complaint? it was a little short, not super short but i think it could have been longer. but anyways, if you havent played or purchased this game....YOURE WRONG
Stunning and intenseAugust 2, 2008 I have 3 genres that I typically tend to avoid when a new game hits the market. Fighters, racers and first-person shooters. Err, rather I should say FPS that deal with the topic of war since others like Bioshock, Half-Life or Halo are perfectly fine for me but redoing World War II events over and over again have begun to bore me over the years. It's quite an accomplishment we even won that war since the amount of Nazis I've killed over the years (and respawning ones at that) gets quite repetitive and same-y. In comes "Modern Warfare" which not only brings acting as a soldier away from past year and into a more contemporary setting but it also brings some things that completely enrich the experience and make it way more memorable than other FPS (which is ironic since the next installment is again going back to WWII...ugh). While there's problems that completely aggravated me at times, it's still an intense and fun shooter.
Story: Instead of Nazis, we're dealing with Middle Eastern and Russian terrorists and the threat of nuclear weapons. You play as a United States Marine and a British SAS as you uncover the plot of who's behind it all and trying to stop any plans they might have. While typically avoiding the storylines in FPS' and just concerned myself with shooting some bad guys, this plot was quite riveting and indeed many moments in the game such as a sinking ship, helicopter crashing towards you or one shocking moment in one storyline, the plot may not be the most indepth but it's still quite awesome.
Graphics: The graphics in most FPS' tended to look fairly flat with grass looking more like flat 2D stuff akin to Paper Mario, Modern Warfare is immensely detailed and there's many scenes where there is just so much going on that it completely sucks you in and explosions, air strikes and the like are very impressive. Even small things like the trail a bullet leaves after a sniper hit or the smoke left by a grenade is well done.
Sound/Music: But anyone who knows war movies knows it's all about the sound and the mix brings the intensity needed tenfold and in the most thrilling and action-packed parts, the sound here will give your stereo hookup a great workout. The voice acting is also good and even though there's no familiar VA's, the marine chatter and battle comments don't become grating like hearing a soldier cheering that "he got one" for the 100th time.
Gameplay: The gameplay is pretty much similar to most FPS from reloading, gun exchanging to grenades and lobbing thrown ones back to using turrets but its more refined and I never felt annoyed because my character did something that my hand didn't do. Other than that it's very straightforward from there on in and there's no real sudden curveballs. One thing that did bug me was finding the enemies is still the old "whatever direction the red arrow points to" only after you're shot so you have to turn to find out where it is but since enemies are so intent on killing you, you'd probably end up dead before you got a shot off though there is some luck.
That was the major problem I had with this game: the difficulty and frustration that frequently set in during missions. I can't count how many times I had to repeat a section because of how fast I died and well enemy AI is great and no longer just charge at you firing randomly, they're still a bit TOO good and enemies from 200 yards away can get a better shot off than I can. While I wouldn't say the game isn't fun for what it is, there's times where I felt like punching something because of how hard it was to do a simple objective.
With a short single player but a robust and popular online multiplayer available, Call of Duty IV is a great ride on any system (despite my own gripes about the difficulty).
One word........pwnedJuly 29, 2008 This game is awesome its a simple as that. Although the campaign is short (it can be beaten between 4-7 hours) it is non stop action with a great story and AMAZING GRAPHICS. Everytime I turn on the game I am amazed by the visuals.
The best part of the game is obviously the online gaming. I am addicted and I need rehab. Get this game now. Click on BUY NOW!!!!! My PSN ID is Preacha1111 I will be waiting......
Very ImpressiveJuly 22, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
While I have only played through one mission on the single player campaign, I am rating this one 5 stars based on the outstanding online mode. The single player mode was impressive in my short experience, and the opening section allows you to practice and get a pretty good handle on the controls if you're new to the series. I can only imagine how intense the following chapters will be based on my near heart attack trying to jump onto the helicopter during a violent thunder storm (stage 1).
The online mode is simply incredible. By far and away the best I've seen to date, it's seamless, lag-less, and very intense. It feels as if you're not online at all, there are absolutely no lags in shooting and graphics. There are few things more satisfying then onlocking the sniper rifle then hiding in the bushes, holding your breath, and nailing some unsuspecting guy in the back from fifty yards away. The sound effects are insanely realistic, you will hear another soldier's footsteps as he approaches you especially on the metal stairs.
The producers really evened the score online too in this installment. I'm still on the receiving end of stabbings far more often then I'd like, but you're put into games based on your skill level and the unlocking of new weapons motivates you to keep going. I have never played the online version of a game so much more frequently then the single player mode, that's how intense this game is. I can't wait to see what the PS3 does with SOCOM........
