With the cost of requirements, Call of Duty 2 will probably the most realistic game you will ever play. PERIOD.
Call of Duty is a game that can't exactly be explained , without playing it. It's that good. The action here , literally made me sweat bullets on a low-forecast day with no heat , and no sunshine at all. In fact , later that day it rained. It's exciting to see your squad find cover, aim, and fire for the first time, or driving a tank while 32 german soldiers swiftly move towards your area. The game is full of so many great moments , it's just fantastic. With great and detailed animations and weapons , you will feel like you are in middle of a fire-fight. Speaking of warfightm, COD:2 has enormous maps. The structure of each map is rich and full of color, which really adds to the games pluses. When you finish the campaign mode, you can move onto the multiplayer mode. It's great, though not exactly ground breaking such as battlefield 2 or Counter-strike source. But when you think of it , does this type of game need a "good" multi-player mode? It's more of a half-life 2
type game. It concentrates on the singe-player , giving you a more memorable experience to live through , unlike many online video games.
Still, this all comes with a cost. For one thing, you need a really good computer, not only for the video, but for the sound as well. Surround sound makes the game much more realistic by a long margin , and the help of a good ATI Radeon will help as well. But, With the cost of these steep requirements, Call of Duty 2 will probably the most realistic game you will ever play. PERIOD. The snow, gun shots, re-loading animations, blood , its all breathtaking. Yes guys, this game is definitely worth the wait.
