I've owned both (past tense), but now only own COD4. The campaign for me wasn't very interesting, but I guess that's to be expected when you don't have much creative freedom to mess with the events of the past. I also thought a lot of the maps in WAW were way too big and you were spawned either too far away from the action or right near the opposing forces resulting in a lot of cheap deaths. Also, the tanks are a really cheesy addition to the gameplay and as someone else said, the bouncing betties are almost impossible to spot before they kill you.
I'm going to agree with some of the others on here and say that you should pass on it if you have COD4. I wish I would've done that but I picked up WAW, beat the single player campaign, messed around with multi-player and Nazi Zombies, and then sold it and went back to Modern Warfare. It's not a bad game, but don't expect it to be revolutionary by any means.
I didn't have any problem finding full rooms today when I played, which is great because I'm not making the switch to COD: World at War (tried it, wasn't impressed, and sold it).
...I bought, played and traded COD: WAW. No thanks. forzabrian
Same here, well, almost.... I'm selling World at War tomorrow. Bought it Saturday, put it up for sale on Craigslist the next day, and put Modern Warfare back in the PS3. I just couldn't get into the weapons after playing COD4 (and yes, I know they had to be historically accurate), the bad respawn problems (being spawned right in front of an opponent even on the bigger maps), the gimmicky tank action, etc. Some may love this game, I'm just not one of them. To each their own though.
I've gone online a couple of times to play WipeOut HD and each time there was only 4 or 5 servers. Is there a reason nobody is playing it any more? I didn't expect the game to just die out so soon after its release.
I was kind of unimpressed by the beta so I'm not sure if I'll be getting it. As much as I was looking forward to it, I'm glad I got into the beta before I spent $60 on the game. I'm not saying it's a bad game, but I don't think it's worth my money. Everyone else that loves it will enjoy it, but I'll sit this one out.
