The Best World War 2 game available.
User Rating: 9.2 | Call of Duty PC
Call of duty, if nothing else, provides the greatest depiction of World War 2 in a video game atmosphere to date. This game took everything good about the Medal of Honor and improved upon it. From the opening jump into Normandy to the final barrage of Berlin this game will have you hooked with its unprecedented portrayal of war torn Europe. First off, you are allowed to finally play as a Soldier, not just for the American forces, but also for the Allied Forces. You play as an airborne soldier with the U.S, an SAS soldier with the British, and a soldier with the Russian army. Each campaign has it’s own unique weapons and unique situations. You will never get bored playing this game. The level layout is done so that you always know where to go. There’s no fumbling around for which door to walk through. If a door is closed, it’s meant to be that way. There is also a navigation bar, which will help guide you through various checkpoints. What truly makes this game are not the graphics, it’s the sound. The sound in this game, especially with a 5.1 system with a loud subwoofer truly immerses you into the struggle. The weapon sounds are authentic, and the overall sound of war happening around you sucks you in. My favorite mission was storming a German house, overtaking the house, and then defending the shanty from infantry and armored assault. It is truly an incredible experience, which will have you reloading that particular level over and over again to experience it. If you’ve seen Enemy at the Gates, then you’ve seen the first level for the Russian army. As most know, the Russians didn’t have the supplies to hand out to each soldier, so you get in line, get ammo (that’s right ammo, but no gun) and must avoid German fire and bunny hop from one coverage area to another. You then make your charge to retake Stalingrad. But be warned, if you retreat, your Russian officers will shoot you. (Good times). To put it simply, play this game. It is an unbelievable single player experience. If you enjoy movies like Saving Private Ryan or the HBO series Band of Brothers you will love this game. While the game play is somewhat arcade-like, you will get an understanding of what the Allies did to win the war that changed the world.
