First off I am not dogging on the game. It is sweet and fun and it definitely has some crazy parts which are amazing. The multiplayer is better and more enjoyable. The achievements are well balanced between campaign, multiplayer, and secret. I have yet to figure out the purple heart though. Yes, the sound is better because you can hear the nazi's speak german clearer and the tanks blowing up sound better. Plus, the graphics in general are sweet but they are just the same in COD2. But anyways I just don't see it better than Call Of Duty 2. The levels in COD2 are much funner and more diverse. Plus, I never had a problem with my character locking up in certain spots like i do in COD3. I don't know if anyone noticed but the smoke in this game is worse than COD2 (I'm talking about the smoke when tanks or trucks blow up, not grenades). I mean it just disappears instantly, it doesn't flow out in the air. But i'm not just going to sit here and nit pick every little problem and detail. I'll just say this, COD3 is just an expansion pack of COD2, new levels and that's it. If you are expecting something amazing you won't get it, enough said. But it is a good game. I wouldn't have purchased if i didn't think so, peace.
