The reason why Modern Warfare received a better score is because formula it used was fresh for the franchise. World at War lives up to the whole phrase; if it ain't broke then why fix it. World at War is a very good game. But it doesn't do have a dramatic difference from Modern Warfare. Besides being set in WWII, and some additional multiplayer perks; the gameplay feel identical.
In all honesty choose what era you like to play in. There's still a lot of people that play Modern Warfare, and World at War is drawing in a fresh crowd.
god i hate that WaW got a lower score. If it had come out first do you think it would have had the score it got? no, it would've gotten COD4's score and would've been considered better. Then COD4 would come out and it would have a lower score for being a copy in a different eradjmillard2You hate that reviewers take into account originality? Of course if you completely copy an older game and just reskin it for a different era it shouldn't get a better score.
You can't compare them. One is modern as in today weapons and warfare and the other is WWII. You have to judge World at War with other WWII games, and in that case World at War is the best WWII game out there. And Modern Warfare is the best "futuristic" game out there.SirCokerThe9thI disagree, the forumula is so simmilar that they need to be compared. COD 4 and COD: WaW are closer related to each other than COD: WaW and any other WWII game, so I would argue that it makes more sense to compare prequel and sequel than sequel and genre.
Modern Warfare is slightly better because Infinity Ward came up with the blueprint for the game, the Treyarch used the same blueprint nd also came up with a great game, both have great multiplayer and all right campaigns...I give the edge to COD 4 because the formula was first used in that game.
