    Modern Warfare with a WWII setting?

    Yes, its true ladies and gentlemen - Call of Duty: World at War is a lot like Modern Warfare. Too much like modern warfare. And lets get that outta the way first, because otherwise - World at War is a great game. The campaign, which has no training level, is divided into 2 main acts. On one side you are an American fighting the Japanease, on the other - a Russian fighting the Nazis. The campaign is short, but it's very good while it lasts. Although, not as good as last year's. The multiplayer is great (as always), the co-op works quite well, but my favourite game mode - Nazi Zombies is totally awesome, and a great bonus to freshen up the expierience. Overall, World at War is a very good game, even though it is CoD4 set in WWII.

    Pros:

    Great graphical expierience
    Awesome multiplayer
    Nazi Zombies
    Sounds very realistic.

    Cons:
    Too much like Modern Warfare.
    Short campaign
    AI is, well, quite dumb.

    8.5/10

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 ...
