 Truly Amazing November 6, 2007
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I really can't say enough good things about this game. This is the best first-person shooter I've ever played, and one of the most unique.
The most striking part of the game is its photorealism. You really must have a Hi-Def widescreen to get the full graphic experience, but even if you don't, the graphics are still the best on any 360 game. Lighting effects, shadows,muzzle flashes, explosions, etc are all incredibly rendered.
You can also assume many different combat roles just as a normal soldier could. You can take out aircraft with Stinger missles, use Javelin rockets, RPGs, M203 grenade launchers, and even control the weapons of an AC-130 gunship.
The latter experience on the AC-130, I must say, was the best part of the game. The developers obviously studied real guncamera footage just like the kind the US military releases to the media. With the black and white infrared guncamera, you can take out enemies using all the aircraft's weapons, and that experience is so eerily realistic.
Sound quality is top-notch. I played it with Dolby Digital Surround sound, and you can clearly hear your teamates moving around you, rounds impacting on the terrain and walls, etc.
The only weakness of the game that I can think of is that since the environments are very elaborate, it's sometimes difficult to determine where you are being ordered to go, and where to perform tasks such as planting explosives, etc. But this is such a minor problem and you can always work around it if you pay attention to your compass.
All said, this is in my opinion, the best COD game to date and I am very glad they got past the WWII settings. I do hope that the next COD game will take place during the Vietnam War because that's an underrepresented setting, and I think the historical framework of the COD series is a great concept and can bring alot of awareness about what these conflicts were all about.
Stunning game! November 6, 2007

This is the best game I have played in recent memory. Yes, that includes Halo 3.
The single player game is of the highest quality, a truly cinematic experience. Yes, it is short, but every level is top notch.
As great as the single player game is, it is the multiplayer experience which really shines. I won't bother getting into details since there are many online reviews of this game. What I will say is that COD4 is quite possibly the most fun I have ever had with an online game. It takes everything that made COD2(not the disappointing COD3) good, refines it, adds more depth.
+Amazing multiplayer. You will be playing this for a long, long time.
+Gameplay is nearly perfect. Seriously.
+Graphics are among the best found in any game. Great detail, animation and zero-aliasing("jaggies"), all at a buttery smooth 60fps.
-Single player campaign is short(but super high quality)

MAN ALIVE OMG LOL!! Call from Duty part 4 is the newist shooter on the XboX 36! You won't even totally beleve how AWSUME it is dawg!!! ItS way better then Haloe which is totaly Gaye and for newbs!!!!! This game is not for newbz though it is for season verterins of games like myselfs!
In Call From Duty you play war as a US Marin which is cool and bada$$ because he is from the U S of A know what I sayin!!!!!! And everone know that the U S Marins are the best of the best and way better then the Russians who are commies and pinkies and natzis. And that's another thing, no more shooting Natzis in this game and thats because the U S of A BEAT the natsis before back in World War I!!!!!! No way Hosey, this game take place in the Modern Times, or the Modern Age of inlightenmint!.
The grafics are unbelivble! I have a 70 inch plasma LCD DLP CRT, and Dulby Sorround sound 8.1, and wurd up when I tell you that this game makes the stupid punks over in the next trailer come pound on my door when I play it!!!!!!! They are just jealous of me though and probably russikies themselfs because they are totally commies always telling me to cut the grass in front of my traler but what is this COMMIE LAND???!!!!
Anywayz, the best part of Call from Duty (beside the fact that it's name have DUTY in it- git it? DUTY!) is MULTEPLAYER! If your like me you totally OWN and POWN in multeplayer because I got all the good guns and know how to choose the best outfits and perks and guns and riffles and pistels and granadas and if you got POWNED by someone on your online Call from Duty internet, that was prolly ME punk so in your face hahaha!!!!!!!!
I sugest you by this game right now unless your poor which you probaly are hey not everone can roll like me holmes know what I saying!!!! I got rims on my el Caminno that probaly costs more then you're whole house costs word!
So to summrize it all up totally go and by CAll From Duty 4 which is the greatest game ever and bada$$ and do urself a favor and get it today.
Stunning Multiplayer And Campaign November 6, 2007
6 out of 6 found this review helpful
(Multiplayer Details and highlights)Exciting Top notch well balanced online play,lag is nonexistent .There's a Party System plus a ton of game modes like Deathmatch,Search & Destroy,Domination,one-on-one duel, a one-shot/one-kill hardcore mode,Heaquarters,Oldschool mode,etc.Also Matchmaking playlists, 16 multiplayer maps right out of the box,Four player split screen.Also your online player will get 'upgrade' perks like faster re-load,detect claymores through walls,asorb more damage,all this is gained through playing and gaining experience points which is a part of the fantastic online leveling system in which everything you do while playing gains experience points that leads to new ranks. And once your promoted to new ranks you'll get added player bonuses like calling in air-strikes,temporary radar,new weapons and attachments,matchmaking playlists,and create-a-class. You MAX out at level 55 but your able to create-a-class at level 4 ,which includes,primary-secondary weapons-grenade type-etc,With 5 slots total to customize. You can tweak your custom class between rounds,according to your tastes for each map and gametype,things like radar jammer-steady aim-sleight of hand/juggernaut-quiet footsteps,etc.All In All Multiplayer is awesome ,COD4 is a must own if your a XboxLive FPS fan.Onto the single player portion ,wow what can I say its beautiful and each mission looks better than the last. There's the standard intense COD action that you'd expect as well as some new 'stealth' type missions (with newly introduced night vision)that makes the game all that much more immersive. The weather,lighting,and textures all look fantastic, and all at an impressive 60fps. The only negative (if there is even just one) is that the campaign is only 10 hours give or take depending on difficulty and how much you explore the levels. But that being said this game hits it on all levels ,fantastic gameplay,stunning graphics,excellent multiplayer,COD4 has all the right things a FPS fan needs and wants. There are some kool 'cheats' too after you collect the (30) laptops scattered throughout the campaign that have the usual cheats like infinite ammo and a wierd but funny cheat that when an enemy gets killed they explode into a pile of car tires..lol..and with the same cheat if you shoot down a chopper the sky rains Goodyears..lol. Also another perk, after beating the campaign 'Arcade' mode opens up , you now get scored on the camapaign based on performance like headshots-blowing up cars-string togeter kills,like mutiple headshots etc. You'll see a score meter that tracks your progress in 'Arcade' mode.What an awesome game the campaign alone really is worthy but its the multiplayer that seals the deal as COD4 is one of the best FPS to hit the consoles in a long time. Definitely 'do not miss' this stellar game.PEACE
Sweet Baby Jesus! November 6, 2007

By far, one of the best FPS ever made. Single player missions are insanely realistic with the best AI I've seen in a video game yet. It gets your heart pumping. Online play is out of this world. Has a ranking system where you get better weapons and skills are you score more points in online play. The online play is worth the $60 alone. This is a must have game.
