Shared on Mon, 01/28/2008 - 23:49I just finished COD4...it was amazing. Every game right in production now...look at COD4's production values...if you don't come close, just pack it up right now.....
I thought uncharted was amazing (it still is), but COD4 just blew me away with every new level. I have tons of images in my head...using the gattling gun on the crashed helicopter..saving a bogged down tank, making a super long sniper shot, the president's funeral drive, and my favorite...shooting the enemy from the airplane with the big mortar at night
COD4 even had amazing credits...the airplane sweep was great!
My only gripe about COD4 is that with it's script based cinema detail, it is often hard to know what the designers wanted you to do..many times i noticed that you had unlimited enemy soldiers and you had to just keep moving...yet other times you had to stay and clear out the troops. It was very hard. Also if you got a bit separated from your squad it was easy to not know where the computer wanted you to go and do next.
I like that the game is 6 hours and non-repeating. The airplane level would have not been as cool if I did it 6 or 7 times in the game.
The other brilliant thing they did was not make you the squad leader. I have played so many games where you are on a squad with AI characters and it is great fun...then they make you a squad leader....that means your fps turns into a RTS game....and I can't stand RTS games!
A suggestion is to make COD4.1....this version will let you do co-op style missions online .... they could use all the same maps and graphics, just make new cool missions that you can play with your friends.
COD4 and Uncharted have been great games....i think that the developers have not a great job marketing the COD4 game tho....if most middle class american men actually saw what the game was, they would be buying ps3's and 360's to play this game....every video I ever saw for it was multiplayer or cinematic...all they needed to do was show your character running up a street with bullets whizzing everywhere for 20 secs, and then slap on a font that said that was realtime, then slap up the COD4 logo and call it quits.....
Anyway this game was great, and it will probably end up being the first FPS I have ever beat and played again, because I am sure later on in the year I will play it thru again. ....
