I own Modern Warfare and i completely love it. I have never played a WW2 game and i think i might want to get World at War. Since i have never played a WW2 game, do u think i would like WaW better? I looked up some of the cool stuff like nazi zombies, coop campain, and the multiplayer, and they look pretty solid.Is WaW worth the Purchase?

While the gameplay in World at War is pretty good, it just feels like a less exciting WWII mod on Modern Warfare. However, I would recommend it for purchase.

Hmmm, its a damn good game, but if you have already played Modern Warfare and NOT played a WW2 (seriously, how did this happen :) ). You should buy some other great WW2 title that is different.

You might want to consider Brothers in Arms: Hells Highway.

If youve never played a ww2 game before this is definitley the place to start dude. I Just got finished beating the single player as i type this. So I can tell you its one of the most epic games I've ever played. Felt like i was in a movie.

I want to know which I should get, I have CoD 2, I have borrowed CoD1 (and UO expansion) I have played the PSP CoD game but I don't have 4 or 5, I like the WW2 setting and it makes sense to get the newer game (especially as they both cost the same amount on Steam, but is there any reason for getting the 4th instead, as far as I can tell the only reason WAW got .5 lower than CoD4 on it's review is because it is similar to CoD4, but I don't have that so it isn't an issue to me.

I played WaW and it is a good game but CoD4 is better. It would still be a good game to get. :D

There's not much of a change in WAW except for the environment and the guns. I'm fairly disappointed with the game, it felt like the devs were scared to stray too far from the COD4 mechanics. It would have been better if they had released it as a WW2 expansion for COD4. Even the storytelling copies Modern Warfare a bit more than is necessary. Try Brothers in Arms instead.

Single player was very short, but it was incredibly fun when you play coop with a few friends. Me and my friends were also addicted to killing nazi zombies too... However, the game is more like a WWII skin for cod4 instead of a different game. But since you haven't played many WWII shooters I don't think this game is a bad buy for you either. The multiplayer is fun (just like 4's almost), coop is great if you have a couple of friends to play with, and Nazi zombies is also fun. If you really loved COD4 and don't mind more of the same gameplay with some nice extras, I'd recommend picking it up. But if you're looking for a new game to play, I think this game is too similar to COD4 to satisfy you and you'll want something else.

If you love COD 4 then you should enjoy WaW, it's basically a rejigging of the game into a WW2 theme. I mean it feels the same, multiplayer feels very much the same. Just different enemies, different maps etc. I haven't played a lot of the mp, I think it has a few bug issues over cod 4 (eg Dogs getting stuck) but I still enjoy it.

I have a question. Which game has the better multiplayer - modern warfare or modern warfare 2. I plan on getting one of these for the xbox360 - so I was just wondering if MW2 is worth the extra money to get.

I prefer World at War to Modern Warfare. MW was extremely boring and while WaW was not anything great it was more enjoyable. The multiplayer in WaW is also better. The developers have released 3 map packs for free with really good maps. MW is as it is with nothing being added by IW. Finally, WaW mp has dogs you can send to kill the enemy. Pure bliss.

Cod 4 has better story, better combat, better ai and less respawning, better weapons and better sounds!! Waw is like a mod, its not bad but not even nearly as good as Cod4!!

hmm do not get world at war, instead buy call of duty 2. More people play it online and it's a better shooter overall, better single player campaign and you'll get to see how call of duty and infinity ward were PC DEVELOPERS before they got stupid with mw2.

WaW is an awesome game first of all it shows the truth about ww2 how the soldiers were thinking and so on... The gameplay is better and after all it is a newer game so expect better graphics. For multiplayer i would recommend MW.

Personally I prefer modern setting with all of its great weapons

But COD 5 is not a bad agame, I just get bored with old WW2 setting :D
