Not sure why Gamespot gave this a 9.0. Most other rating sites of any consequence gave COD 4 between a 9.5 to a 9.7 rating. Simply put this is a supreme achievement and what the FPS genre is all about. Intense battle action with great battle settings. I was particularly struck by the level of realism. The single player campaign is exciting and challenging. The arsenal of weapons are very well done. It is really one of the most fun FPS games that I have ever played and yet it is fairly straight forward. The Multiplayer really seals the deal though. Rarely have I played a multiplayer game that is more engaging. Nothing fancy but a game that everyone can play, enjoy and win. Thundering action in the streets of the middle east and in Russia.
