At first I really didn't like it. But as I played it more i really came around. COD3 is a really good game.
Graphics: 11 The graphics are just fantastic. The effects look amazing and the people look lifelike and I really loved the effects like explosions.
Sound: 10 Good as always
Gameplay: 8-9 Very solid no dull moments but I really don't like how your allies can seriously take a billion billion bullets. I agree with Gamespot that it really isn't that much different.
Value: 8-9 The game was very solid and the multiplayer is awesome with 24 players now. Vehicles also add a whole new dimension.
Overall this game was very solid and I had a great time playing the single player. The multiplayer was even better. This is a great game for somebody who loves FPS but it won't change any minds.
