Intense and Real! This is one of the Next Gen Games!
Difficulty settings can be changed to your preferences and are just right for all skill levels. The controls are also placed smartly and are all within quick reach. The ease of the controls and the responsiveness of the controls helps give the game a normal time to adjust.
The gameplay can be overwhelming but it not as much as a brain assault as other games have been. It's an addicting FPS that does deserve to be in every Next Gen collection of games, from the sweet knifing animation to the ragdoll effects of enemies.
Though the single-player campaign is shorter than normal, the quality is excellent, due to the gameplay. Multiplayer, however, is an awesome experience in of itself. Although it might take a game or two before expanding to the customize character option, its well worth the effort for the Perks. There are three lists of perks and you can choose one perk out of each list. The basic perks are open at the beginning but further experience, by kills mostly, awards new levels and new unlocks, whether they be new perks or new weapons.
All in all Call of Duty 4 has set the standard for the Next Gen FPS, one many games and companies will be hard pressed to reach. This game is a must buy, and is worth every drop of money.
