Pick your favourite Call of Duty game in the series

If you were to ask me, I would pick Black Ops as the supreme title in the blockbuster franchise. Why? Well, despite the slow gameplay in comparison with the Modern Warfare series, I think Treyarch did so many things right. Introduced new, fun, creative killstreaks, balanced out the perks, theatre mode, the currency system, the new game modes in multiplayer, the combat record; where you can see some interesting stats of your player and all the others, fun weapons to use and their support after the game release was immense. And I haven't even mentioned the zombie mode, which many like.

In second place, is Modern Warfare 2. I like this game, because in terms of pure fun, it is unbeatable. Extremely entertaining killstreaks to use, good modern weapons, nice factions, music etc. MW2 was an epic experience.

I haven't played MW3 long enough to create such an opinion of it, though.

What's your favourite game and why?

For me,

1. Black Ops

2. Modern Warfare 2

3. Call of Duty 4

4. World at War (zombies)

The Original Call of Duty when it wasnt that mainstream

Absolute best? It's hard to decide from the CoD1/UO & CoD4

Personally for me it's

Call of Duty 4 : Modern Warfare

Call of Duty : Black Ops

Call of Duty : Modern Warfare 3

Call of Duty : Modern Warfare 2

MW3 is higher then MW2 really only because it ENDS the story arch, and has some amazing set pieces, even though it is shorter then all previous Call of Duty's to date (i did not buy it, i rented).

[spoiler] the mission to keep the Russian President safe on the plane was amazing, loved it [/spoiler]

Blacks Ops i will admit, i did not see the twist coming. I knew on the first playthrough something fishy was going on, but i did love it.

So you like a game in a series only when the series isn't popular? Sound like a fanboy to me. :?

I think MW3 is better than MW2, but MW2 was much better for its time, despite its problems concerning the balance in the game.

No, liking MW3 shows that you like action... A lot. Nothing wrong with that.

I kinda like MW3, it has the best unlock system of any COD. Gun levels are pretty cool, almost like playing an RPG.

CoD 4 (PC) hands down.

I had the most fun with COD 4, but it doesn't have the same effect on me now as it did back in 07-08.

Call of Duty 2 :)

CoD 4 (PC) hands down.

cod 4 and MW3 are my favorites so far, minus the map setup in MW3 its pretty good.

Call of Duty 2 is my fav. I don't like CoD4 as far as MP goes.

they all stink

I like MW2, but MW3 is like an updated MW2 without the **** And I like CoD4, too. But I never played it when everybody else was... I was playing Gears and Halo until Black Ops.

That's when I got into the series. And I am surprised so few picked Black Ops, which I think is the most excellent game, to be honest. :?

CoD 1, of course.

CoD 2 easily. CoD 4 was the last good CoD game though.SF_KiLLaMaN

I just think CoD4 may have been the last revolutionary game, but the sequels all improve on its formulas, making them better.

I liked COD4, WAW, COD 2 and MW2 equally I'd say. Black Ops and COD 3 are extreme **** if you ask me.

CoD4 is the least bad imo.

CoD 4 without a doubt. I love pretty much everything about that game aside from what it led to for the series.

So you liked CoD before it switched focus on the MP. You could have said that.

MW2 had a godly campaign. so i will go with it.

CoD 2, CoD 4 and Modern Warfare 3 are my top 3.

Out of the ones I've played I'd probably say Black Ops is my favorite, but I really think that will change once I play Modern Warfare 3.

CoD 2. It had everything good about CoD 1, but with better visuals and better multi. I didn't like the modern switch of the series tbh.

For Multiplayer: Call of Duty: World at War, runner up CoD 4.

For Singleplayer: Call of Duty 2, Runner Up: Tie between CoD 1 and Black Ops.

[QUOTE="Dark_man123"] A fan-boy in what way? do you even know what that term means? most of the people who bought call of duty only bought it for online play something that hasn't change since modern warfare 2 without having a care in the world about its story, the originally call of duty was known for its fantastic presentation and story, something that most call of duty player of today doesn't even know about.

Sorry to disappoint you, but I agree with your friend. I doubt CoD was ever well-known for its SP in the past, anyway. Such games would rather be Half-Life or Stalker.

COD 4. Great SP and MP.

CoD 1

It was pretty awesome at the time

Call of Duty 4 of course. Its a shame they game lacked co-op and the AI had that weird never ending respawn design decision, but it was otherwise amazing on every level.

Modern Warfare 2 was really good too, and better on a LOT of different levels (graphics, co-op, content, etc.), but it was much more unbalanced, didn't have dedicated servers, and had a shorter, weirder campaign.

I also liked Call of Duty 2, but I kind of hated the first one.
