Nice.
I think the online is okay, they just need to iron out all the lag and maybe change out some perks for some better ones. Also not a big fan of RC cars. Singplayer was great though, cool story, cool environments, and it made sense more or less and MW2 I didn't even know what was going on like 90% of the time. This was a nice improvement.
nice review. like the music, lol. single player was cool even tho i didnt really like world at war that much and it was similar, but the online is really good. modern-ish weapons but toned back a lot from mw2. i like it
campaign was great, multiplayer was the same bullshit unfortunately. good reivew
I feel pretty much the same way as you. Absolutely loved the single player, fantastic story with a great twist, tons of great levels and it's not just complete madness from beginning to end like MW2. Hopped onto the multiplayer, got shot from around the corner (with a fully green connection, mind you) and remembered "yep, still Call of Duty!". Just like you said, I find it very disappointing that after billions in sales they can't provide dedicated servers to their players. At the very least they could do what most games do and balance the connections. Sadly, no. Still a lot of fun but this is the last Call of Duty game I'm dropping $60 on if they don't get their act together. If the single player is good I'll drop it in my GameFly queue, but that's about it. Thanks for your review. Great job once again.
SWEET! really great review, awesome game too. thanks
Pretty much completely agree with this review. Single player was amazing. like World at War quality but even better and definitely more variety in levels. Multiplayer is fun for sure, but lots and lots of issues that have still not been fixed since the first game and as you said, no dedicated servers! totally inexcusable considering the money they rake in from CoD not to mention, IT'S ACTIVISION! the biggest publisher around. lol just ridiculous. Thanks for your review
