From Game Informer:
"Start to finish, online or off, Call of Duty 4 is solid gold. Some might decry the single-player's short length or that it's more of the same, but its amazing quality and Arcade mode more than make up for it. Infinity Ward has delivered on every front, and there is no question in my mind that this is the best action shooter I have ever played."
MW 2019 is five years old at this point and on previous gen hardware, but it is still the best looking Call of Duty game to date.
MW was an excellent videogame. They messed up Spec Ops big time, but aside from this it was a huge step in the right direction initially. Most notably, at launch it seemed to come from a very cohesive creative vision that was felt across gameplay, to story to art style/visual direction. It was also very notably written by prominent ex-Naughty Dog guys that quit almost immediately before release.
That COMPLETELY dissolved through post-launch content and the full pivot to a "cross-mode" narrative that completely obliterated the cohesion in overall story direction. Warzone then "became" the new face of Call of Duty and the franchise completely removed itself from anything remotely creatively "good". It is a pure money machine, so I kinda get why they're doing it....but I personally completely lost interest.
I would love to see Infinity Ward move off CoD and get to make their own product with full control. They clearly have some massive talent in their ranks but it's perverted by Activision's corporate interests.
Call Of Duty is back with its yearly instalment, but is Modern Warfare 3 breaking new ground, or just a lazy cash grab? The answer may not surprise you in today's review from JDR.
The original Modern Warfare and Modern Warfare 2 games have been drawing players back in
I really hope we get other activision games on GP soon. My dream would be Scarface but I know the license probably expired
None of those games had dedicated servers on console in the first place? Were always player hosted. Did something change?
i kid I kid..
I guess we can end the flame wars now?
stores around here suck with getting stuff.
luckily i ordered it off amazon and will have it thursday.
can't wait to play it
It's the best game I've played all year. The SP is amazing, the MP is even better, just superb in every way.
took them 4 times to get it right....come on Infinity :P i kid!
but seriously....Crysis looks better than this game. i was watching the CoD4 special of X-play and some of the guns looked like cacky. just my opinion, let the disagrees shower upon me XD
p.s. need consoles to support k+m configs
Do I get this or Orange box? My wallet is getting a little bare!
I think Orange Box is out in December....what should I get? I can't afford both right now.
