Incredibly immensive experience

User Rating: 8.4 | Call of Duty 2 PC
Lets face it, the WW2 game genre is no longer an original enterprise. Therefore, a game based on this event must raise the bar in order to prove itself as much more than just another WW2 game. I believe Call of Duty 2 does this. Infact, in my opinion, Call of Duty 2 is the best WW2 game ever made.

The graphics in this game are incredible. Even with an average setup (I am using a 9800pro) this game looks amazing. I can only but wonder how this game must look like on a more advance gaming rig.

The story does a tremendous job of immersing the player in the game. One does not feel as though they are playing the game, rather, it feels like you are taking part in the game. The story, and constant scripted events, leave the player on the edge of their seat on countless occasions.

Another great part of the game is the sound. Whether it is the sound of your allies barking out orders, or the sound of bullets flying inches away from your head, everything sounds as authentic as possible, and aids in the overall game immersion.

I did have a few gripes with the game. For one, the AI seems to be rather dumb. The just rush at you like a bunch of mindless zombies waiting to be shot. Secondly, some of the events tend to get repetitive. Thus far, I have had to defend a certain position from countless enemy attacks approximately 4 times now. While this is fun, it left me with the feeling that I have done this before (countless times!!). Also, I found the game to be a little to easy, even on the harder modes.

Even though the multiplayer does not do much to innovate, it is still very fun and entertaining.

Other than these few gripes (which are common in may games), i definitely recommend this game to all
