One of the best multiplatform games on the PS3

Call of Duty 4 being the second installment of the COD series on the PS3 leave the WW2 scene and centres around modern warefare. It certainly improves over the previous game as as modern warefare is a welcomed change from the over-done WW2 theme all the others have done to death.

Focused around modern afairs with the politics removed you play as the SAS and U.S. Marine Crorp in both the middle east and Russia. The gameplay in the game is both addictive and works well. For the SAS missions you are deep behind enemy lines taking out certian individuals. On one level you go back in time to when you're CO was in your shoes to take out war lord.

While playing as the U.S. Marines you are part of a large task force sent in to sort out volitile regions in the Middle East much like the current war in Iraq. There you storm many rooms as well as TV broadcasting bulidings and helping aid a damaged Abrams tank to get to safety.

The graphics are top notch. A far greater improvement over the previous installments with a super high frame rate to boot too. Another plus point is that both the PS3 and 360 are indentical in terms of looks and performance.

The sound of all the guns are realistic as are all the explosions and bullets that "ping" and "snap" as they fly over your head or hit your surroundings. The ambient and with the music too makes the world feel real and the game all the more better.

The online area of the game is one if biggest parts of COD4. Whereas the singleplayer has a good storyline and replayability (with secret laptops to find to unlock cheats) the multiplayer has challenges to help you unlock perks and addons for your weapons. There is also splitscreen and LAN play for when your buddies come over to play but the only downside is the lack of bots to play against.

To sum up, COD4 is one of the very good multiplat games that has both a fantastic single and multiplayer modes. The challenges and gameplay are enough to keep any FPS fan hooked for months.

Very well done. If I didn't have the game already a review like this may justify my purchase.

I really hope we get other activision games on GP soon. My dream would be Scarface but I know the license probably expired

P_Bomb305d ago

Love me some Scarface! I even bought the comics. Yeah, licensing would probably be an impasse.

4Sh0w305d ago

hmmm, coincidence? Either way this is a good sign for gamers after the ABK deal.

porkChop305d ago

I played through Scarface again last year and it still holds up. Such a fun game. I would love for Xbox to get the rights back to remaster Scarface and make a sequel. It sold well and they had plans for Scarface 2, 3, and 4. With how long it takes Rockstar to make games the market is wide open.

TheColbertinator304d ago

That game was so much fun. Expected a cheap GTA clone but it was a good drug empire building game.

shinoff2183304d ago

They didn't just have plans but there's actual gameplay out there for scarface 2

neutralgamer1992304d ago

Seriously man we need games like

True crime
Sleeping dogs
Watch dogs( more like original not legion)
And proper saints row

GTA can’t be the only option we need other games

P_Bomb304d ago

@neutral
Gun was Activision as well. Nice open world Wild West there imo.

neutralgamer1992303d ago

Gun is such a underrated game

None of those games had dedicated servers on console in the first place? Were always player hosted. Did something change?

Rutaprkl304d ago

Older cods like Mw, Mw2 and WaW were way better than Call of Dutys nowadays

GoodGuy09304d ago

Make activision remaster mw2 (2009) multiplayer please xbox.

Heh you’re not kidding!

I’ll give the devil his due though in that they actually started doing something I was asking for.
Was recently talking about how Days Gone and Warframe had compression patches that shaved up to 20GB off the top. Turns out the latest COD patch dropped me from 175GB down to 166.8. Hey it’s a start lol! Only 66.8 to go ;)

The Division 2? This is gotta be satire. I'm a huge fan of the series but the division 2 deserved no awards, especially best shooter. NEVER GO FULL RETARD

DigitallyAfflicted1607d ago

Anthem, destiny and more others games should be on this list...
