It seems like everyone who reviewed Call of Duty 4 has forgotten that a game called Call of Duty 2 existed. As someone whos played 100+ hours on both games, i cannot help but notice the similarities despite the changing of eras. Some of the same sounds (plant sound, for example in search and destroy), same texturing, etc. Apparently they recycled many elements. Not that this is bad though, as CoD 2 was an excellent game and they improved on some of its flaws. Yes, the AI still sucks. Yes, its still linear. But, that does not make it less of a shooter. I think CoD 2's single player campaign was more "epic" at some points, but CoD 4's was better paced. The short length helped it in this case as i felt like i played through just the right amount of action without it getting tedious. Multiplayer is excellent, but i think everyone who bought CoD 4 knew that (although it isnt BF 2).
