 Excellent FPS for Modern warfare.. July 1, 2008
COD, COD2, and now this little diddy. Wow this is s superb game. I am a single player kind of guy, If I want multi player, I will log in and play counter strike. For single player games, i want something just like this. the story is excellent, with more than a few plot twists and surprises. The only gripe about this game is that in typical infinity wad fashion, it is short. But it is soooo damn good... Viva la expansion!
Hard to beat this game in all area's! June 30, 2008
This is an addictive game that provides hours of fun. Little pricey getting your PC upgraded to play in high detail (cheaper to purchase a console than to build/buy a PC that can handle the graphics).
 Superb, but needs to be more challenging & longer June 25, 2008

Basically, COD4 is a very fine game and a superb cinematic experience. It's like being in a modern war movie. I finished the game on the 2nd highest level of difficulty (hardened?). The majority of the game was pretty easy to get through. There were two places in the game that were extremely challenging, and those were much more rewarding to complete. This game could've used a lot more challenging missions. I wouldn't say it's a short game, but I'd say it's a medium length game. It took me a few days to finish. I still think that Halo 1 is a better game than COD4, mainly because the gameplay is deeper, more sophisticated, and challenging. When you play Halo in legendary mode, you constantly have to come up with tactical strategies for successfully getting through areas. Whereas when I played COD4, you never needed any strategy except for the two very challenging battles in COD4 (ferris wheel & launch control). The Halo series of games are the best selling ones for a good reason. They are the most in-depth, fun, and challenging in terms of gameplay. Halo also has better interaction with your fellow soldiers and your enemies. You feel like they are real people. Characters in Halo are always making comments & chatter relevant to whatever is going on in a particular situation. That makes it a lot more immersive and fun. There's not so much interaction in COD4. COD4 is mostly like a shooting gallery. You just shoot whatever pops up. The characters in COD4 talk only for the sake of advancing the story, where as the friends & foes in Halo talk all the time, which makes it more interactive and engaging. That's one of my favorite things about Halo. So while COD4 is superb as far as it goes, they should take this game and develop it a bit farther. They should add more in-depth gameplay, more sophisticated combat, more interactivity between characters, and a longer and deeper story. I think they should work on adding those things to the next COD game instead of making a new graphics engine. The graphics are fine as they are.
I want to add that before COD4 came out, I was wishing for a game where you could fight against muslims. After 9/11 and all the crap that has happened since then, plus all the decades of never-ending terrorism, plus the future threat of nuclear bombs from muslims, I am really sick and tired of them and I think the gaming world is crying out for a really good, in-depth, satisfying game where you can get your revenge on them. I thought it was great that you do get to fight against muslims in COD4, but I don't think it was enough. You still fight Russians in the majority of the game. It's like it's only politically correct to fight white people in games. It seems like all the game developers are chickening out of making a good game where you fight mainly muslims. We also still don't have any good games where you fight in World War II against the japanese, or in the Viet Nam war, or the Korean war. I guess they're also too chicken too make games where you fight asians. This is ridiculous. They are missing out on many big money-making opportunities here! I think that stinks! I want to see a complete spectrum of first rate FPS war games where you get to fight all the major wars in all the major theaters, regardless of the ethnicity of the enemies.
Wow! June 23, 2008

I am a gamer but I have a narrow preference for the type of games I play, mainly Star Trek and MOHAA and COD4 LOL. I thought there was a problem with my new 8800 GS video card because I couldn't stay up with the other players in online play. But I realized that my eye and hand coordination had to catch up with the graphics of this game,and when they did, after playing for several hours, I felt great when I had a triple scoring spree and was promoted to corporal :-) This game delivers what all games should, challenge, outstanding graphics, and a sense of truth, in the case of war games, that in real life people do die for freedom. and we have many heros both sung and unsung--Wow!
