In a crowded market of World War II videogames, Call of Duty has made something of a name for itself with its cinematic storytelling and realistic battlefields. Last year's COD2 was one of the very best titles of Xbox 360's launch portfolio, and less than a year on we have Call of Duty 3 from Treyarch, which represents a small but significant improvement for the series.

COD has a long and storied career. Launching as a PC WW2 first-person shooter, Call of Duty has gone through numerous makeovers and been on just about every system. The series has gone through some serious highs and tragic lows. I’ll be looking at each Call of Duty game, the good the bad, and the ugly."
Vanguard better be at the fkn bottom. Can’t believe ppl haven’t eviscerated that game with all its lacking
Same for me.
I was never huge into Call of Duty, but I sunk a lot of time into WaW.
Both the campaign and the multiplayer are on point. Wouldn't mind a remaster.
I quit on CoD for a long while. Though I'm the odd man out that actually really enjoyed the campaign for WWII, being I got it through Humble monthly way back when.
I agree, The Infinite campaign feels more like it's own thing that they slapped the CoD name on. If it stood on it's own, (sans the CoD name) I think it could have been it's own scifi franchise. And a damn good looking game, to boot. I never bothered to play the multiplayer.
That was one I grabbed for Playstation because it pretty much just came out during the Redbox purge of videogames, and I got it for dirt cheap.
It was great coming home to an update every night, and watching one game eat up almost half my console's memory.
Will get disagrees but Infinite Warfare campaign was really good. Decent story, set pieces were amazing and if it didn't have the CoD game on it I'm sure people would have been more into it. Advanced Warfare was alright too. Titanfall 2 was just 1000 times better than both but I enjoyed them for their campaigns. I literally barely gaf about the story I'm in it for the set pieces and 5 hours of being stoned watching cool nonsense happen if I'm in the mood to play a CoD campaign. If I'm looking for a deep plot I'm gonna go somewhere else.
Ghosts was the worst story-wise though lol that cliffhanger ending was so bs.
Also MW 2019 was sick and is one of the best CoD games in yeeeears not sure why it's so low on this dude's list. Campaign was great, multiplayer was great and Warzone was fun for a while. Over it now but shrugs.
Beat the Vanguard campaign too but I can't even remember a single thing about it other than that it felt like it was 45 minutes long. Might be the most forgettable thing I've ever played lol just fully erased from my brain
If the rumours are true then COD will be returning to World War 2 this year. The evidence is strong: by Activision’s own words the series is “going back to its roots” for its next instalment. There’s also some leaked art and steelbook covers that, while still unconfirmed, definitely look the business. With that in mind let’s take a look back at some of the series’ greatest WW2 moments. From weird and quirky levels that have you crawling through a pipe, to all out warfare against impossible odds or battling fighter planes in a bomber falling apart in midair. Moments like these can get lost in the cycling din of yearly iterations, so let’s take a moment to appreciate some of Call of Duty’s stand out levels.
WaW was my favorite WW2 Cod. Even too this day i think it is my favorite CoD because of the atmosphere/tone of the game.

Over forty years on planet Earth, my own nerd rock from the sun, you could say I’ve played some games."
Huh, seems like they were underwhelmed. At least the graphics are pretty!
So many glitches and bugs ! Here comes another 'mediocre' on 360 !!!
Well we have 'Resistance' for the FPS section on the PS3, good thing Sony isn't relying entirely on third party support or we might also be getting just Quake4 or stuff like that !
Its on the Playstation 3 also idiot, they were harsh on that game because of all the other AAA titles coming out along side of it. But I doubt the game is worse than CoD2.
well now the question is, is this game worth $60 to get updated graphics, when cod2 still is awesome, in fact I just got done playing like 2 hours of xbox live on it...so hmm
COD2 was a great game for a launch title! Im still picking up part 3 because I would like to form my own judgement!
