Great destruction and story but not all the elements in it are strong

Graphics: the best part about this game that makes this shooter stand alone is the destruction. though at first it may just seem like your destroying walls and your enemy's cover, but if you take the time to destroy a whole house you will see that this is one of the most satisfying things ever. every house has a different animation (i think) when it topples down. Aside from the destruction not all of the visuals are great. there are some texture load issues and in one mission every time that i restarted it it started with blocks. though you may think that its not a big deal i for one think that it takes away from the quality of a lot of the game.

Story: though through some parts of the story i was in a loud area so i couldn't hear everything that was being said but what i did hear was how funny it was through out. on a lot of shooters the whole thing is serious and this game can be serious at times as well but not to the point where its boring. For some reason the story is in third person which i don't really like because i don't feel like i'm in the game.

Game play: one problem that i had with the game play is when it switches between game play or story there's a flash and it doesn't make you feel like your in the game (yes i know i already said that) like MW2 does. but aside from that the shootings amazing and you ride vehicles A LOT and i wish that it didn't have all of the vehicles because i bought a shooter i didn't expect to be driving half the time. one thing that i was disappointing with this game is the online. its not that bad but I expected more. I would prefer MW2 online than this and its hard to explain why.

Controls: there OK some parts i wish were different but the running is WAY better than on call of duty because on here it doesn't hurt your thumb

The verdict: if your deciding between Call of duty and this get call of duty but if you already have call of duty this is still a great game
