if I were to get one what would be better cod4 or cod5? and does 5 include prestiging? 

They both have a lot of support behind them and will continue to be supported, and in both you won't have any trouble finding players. COD5 has all of the same levelling up and prestiging that 4 has. I personally think the guns are more satisfying in 4, so I'd go for that. But that's just me.

Cod4 is far superior. Also its' not Cod5, its World at War, the way the numbering is going, the NEXT cod that comes out in 09 could possibly be called Cod5.

no

you just want to believe that



cod = ultimate rehash, no matter how you twist it by going "oh but treyarch doesn't count!!1111""

 I, maybe some do , but I don't hate Treyarch at all, I'm just generally tired of WW2 games. I tried WaW, from the beta to renting it. It's mp is just far worse than cod4. Yes, they try to basically clone it, then add another 10 ranks to say "me too! and look, we added some more! we're better!" They fucked up hardcore modes damage though heavily, and the level design is just horrible. Main reason it's worse. SP is nothing special, but I was looking forward to co-op I will say...and they fucked up co-op as well. Some stand behind the zombie mode also, but as soon as I was playing just the L4D demo, that entire mode just felt slow and inferior.

If you like WW2 setting/weapons more, I'd say go with that, but in general the better made game for reasons listed above, is cod4. This is just dumb to point out now though, because there was like 45 threads witht his exact topic around WaW's beta and initial release.

You're an idiot."

@crunchUK:  (don't want to quote the entire dialog)

The IW games are often reinventing (notably with cod 1 and 4), and will probably keep doing that. The other are "fillers" wanted by activision to cash in on the CoD-brand. No crap on Treyarch, their orders from Activision is probably pretty clear: Take IW:s technology, gamestructure and innovations and make a new game that is basically the same.

Result: IW gets to take longer time doing the game they want to make, while activision still gets to exploit the CoD-name annually. More good games for the uninformed masses, more money to Activision, and more then that: We, the informed minority, can stay clear of the Treyarch games if we want to. Or play it, and get more of the same great game IW originally made.

Everybody wins!

To respond to the original topic: They are pretty much the same, but 4 is probably the better crafted game. 5 on the other side learned some things from 4, and have some expanded featured. I would take 4, but you can really go wrong.

Aren't you that borderline retarded kid that loves Halo 3? That is a completely stale series that somehow manages to get worse with each installment."

Wow, this quickly got out of control, can't you guys have a cagefight somewhere else?

How is that damage control? Call of Duty isn't stale, as someone else mentioned it reinvented itself with the fourth Call of Duty game. The over saturation you're talking about is Activision's fault not the developer, IW. Infinity Ward has only made three main Call of Duty games, and they are trying to separate themselves from Treyarch's product. Halo, on the other hand, keeps releasing the same game that only appeals to casual gamers, retards and twelve year old children.

Edit:

I don't even get what you mean by over saturation. The games created by Treyarch, with the exception of Call of Duty: United Offensive and Call of Duty: World at War, play and feel totally different from Infinity Ward's games; they just have the same name slapped on the box, which is a decision made by Activision to sell more copies."

I'm not saying Call of Duty isn't noob orientated, I believe both Halo and Call of Duty are noob orientated. You're just a blind halo fanboy, which I won't bother explaining, becuz i dunno how and cnt mak a point cuz im stupid n0 wait itz cuz u cnt handle it lolololollololol

I advise CoD 4.

I'd say go with Call of Duty 4, especially if you plan on playing and enjoying the singleplayer. Just FYI I haven't played WaW, just going by what I've heard people say.

COD 4 is still far more popular than World at war so I think you should go for COD4 Modern warfare
