I just sat here for 45 minutes writing up some impressions of the World at War beta, and tried to add an image. When I did so, the editor went absolutely crazy and deleted everything I typed. I'm totally pissed off. Since I really don't feel like typing all that again, here's my short impressions of World at War, summed up in pretty bullet points just for you.

• Pretty decent overall, however not as good as Call of Duty 4
• Weapons don't sound very powerful, and as such aren't that satisfying to shoot
• Seven kill streak reward is now a pack of dogs, which sniff out enemies and maul them
• There are 65 levels and ten prestiges, and the more you prestige the more custom class slots you unlock (start out with five, end up with ten)
• Tanks are very powerful, but the movement of both the tank and the turret is sluggish enough that they're not overpowered
• The matchmaking system still sucks
• I'm still really pissed my blog got deleted
• Seriously, what the hell
• There is now an option for the party leader to leave a lobby with your entire party
• You can create and join squads. All squad members will be colored blue and the squad leader place a beacon on the map to show squad members where to go
• Graphics are not as good as Call of Duty 4, but they're good enough
• Assists give different amounts of XP (anywhere from 2-8) depending on how much damage you do to the person before someone else finishes them off
• You can't throw grenades as far as you can in CoD4, so people don't try to spam them as much
