World War ll was the worst war in history, and the Call of Duty series has really brought this alive in it's games. I've owned and completed every game in the series and set high expectations for every sequel that comes out, and Call of Duty 3 met them in almost every way. The graphics and sound were two HUGE overhauls and improvement from its predeceser, Call of Duty 2, who was the most succesful starting title of the 360. As far as the single player, and as I said above, the graphics and sound were outstanding. Yet there was something missing. I was at first dazzled by the graphics, and still am, but after the first few levels it just lost some of it's glammer. And it did play similar to COD2 with a few new featuers, like coming face to face with some Nazi which was just too easy as all you had to do was some button mashing. But the multiplayer was the biggest improvement from Call of Duty 2 (while this is VERY contriversal, for some reason). I don't see how you could compare with the second. I left a list below of the major improvements.
1. More Players in one room (24, COD2 only had 8)
2. Larger maps
3. Better graphics
4. Ranks (Higher the rank, more ammo, grenades, ect.)
5. Classes (rifleman, light assault, heavy assault, medic, scout, support, anti-armor) Although, since there are so many people on one team, there is less 'team work' and strategy (as there is always those select few who teamkill and not really contribute to the team). That being said, I have only a few friends I've met through COD3, due to the low communication between individuals. (I don't like to crowd my friends list list with people I don't know too well. And of course, there are little tweaks in the third installment, such as laying mines, calling in artillery, dropping ammo, and healing teammates. You can also commandeer any stray vehicle such as tanks, jeeps, ans even motorcycles. SUMMING IT UP Single player was a good but not great expierence, mostly being held together with outstanding graphics. This game carries one of my favorite multiplayers of my collection. If you don't have Xbox Live, I suggest renting first.
