Overrated! Forced maps, short game time, no spectacular new ideas, ltd interaction with enviroment. Arcade meterial.

This game did not in any way excited me. What i was used to playing I got. There are some things that game developers do not understand. We as the supporters of gaming titles want to be intrigued by new ideas. We are not lifeless Zombies that buy sequels. Every game is just an extension of the previous game, but then you get developers that make a difference like Bethesda (Oblivion) Rockstar (GTA). Do we -the gamer community- look stupid?. Why do some developers drag us through maps like we are bulls with nose rings? How many times do you see something outside "the map " trying to go investigate and "Can't go here" pops up, or there is a wall or cliff. Going to war with hand weapons is cool. Going to war with a arsenal of weaponry , vehicles, planes, boats etc. that is REALISM. Oh yea! Most FPS games should be AKA RAMBO! Wake up people one man can never win a war.
The reason why it is overrated is simple. This is one of the better looking FPS games. Does it need more ingredients - 4 sure!. When will we get a FPS game with the same map system that GTA uses? One big map -all out war. Image ONLINE gaming. You are a naval officer doing precision bombing by coordinates inland, coordinates by infantry soldiers (online friends). You reply you cannot bomb target (out of reach) Tanks reply also they are repairing. Infantry call in the air wing. They Bomb the living s$&t out of the enemy. Medivac comes in for rescue missions. Commanders, generals all ranks have their own jobs. You achieve medals and rank up. If you start the online game you start as a junior . Rifle and pistol that's it! COD4 touched on the idea but only arcade style. I do hope world at war is better . As i said in my previous review . The developers thrive on expectation, this in it self is a SIN! Giving a little at a time to make a sequel successfull.

    The first thing you notice in CoD4 is that the graphics are fantastic - then you notice that its set in modern day. Its a great move to finally get away from the WW2 settings, Modern Warfare really gives you the feeling ... Read Full Review

    My inaugural review and game played for that matter on the PS3 may ruin me for reviewing future games on the system. Call of Duty 4 is flat out the prettiest game I've played on a console, hands down. The smoke and light... Read Full Review
