    Call of Duty: World at War Review

    Call of Duty: World at War is a fine addition to the Call of Duty franchise.  It is undoubtably the coup de grace of any WWII-themed first person shooters.  Treyarch, still riding on the back of the giant that is Infinity Ward, stole all the bits that made Call of Duty: Modern Warfare so great and improved upon or added to that seminal game.  However, it should be noted that COD: MW still feels "smoother" and more balanced than WaW, but only by a little bit.

My favorite Call of Duty is Modern Warfare, but Call of Duty 2 is an very close second and I had ...

      World At War is nothing particularly new, but it retains many good qualities 0

      Call of Duty: World At War returns to WW2 as opposed to it's predecessor, to mostly positive results. World At War presents a darker, grittier tone than past games in the series, as well as including a theater of war never used before in a COD game, and a multiplayer mode that is more of the same, and a new Zombie survival mode.World At War kicks off the campaign with you playing as Pvt. Miller, being held captive in a Japanese camp on the island of Makin Atoll, where him and his teammates have ...
