User Rating: 9.7 | Call of Duty 2 X360
I just got my 360 and call of duty 2 was the first game i bought and i'll just say its flat out amazing! I'll start by talking about the graphics. They are the most amazing graphics I've ever seen. Their light years ahead of any current gen game and way ahead most modern PC games, even doom 3. Everything was detailed with such presision, i just spent the first 10 minutes walking around and looking at the different textures on walls and soldiers. Then once u start the game there is amazing effects goin off everywhere. the particle effects are amasing and so is the smoke. i have been playing this on a HD plasma TV and the higher resolution really amps up the detail and textureing so i would recomend HD if u have acsess to one. the gameplay is also great. i love the 360s controller because of the newly placed black and white buttons which are now used for throwing gernaids. this is the only console fps that i actually forgot i wasnt useing a keyboard and mouse! the controlls were very responsive and the analoge sticks are placed just right. the sound is out of this world. I had surround sound blasting and it felt like you were in the battlefield. you heard soldiers and gunfire on all sides of you and the gun noises are top notch as well. the value is the only thing i took points off of because of the lack of multyplayer. there is xbox live play but thats only 8 players and it feels like the levels are too big for only 8 players. it also is missing co-op play or splitscreen multyplayer, but the game will last u a good 12 hours or more.
overall this is a tramendous game with tons of potential and i think it could turn out to be one of the top selling 360 launch titels. So if u are decideing which game to go with your new 360 i highly suggest Call of Duty 2!
