In my opinion, no. I hated World at War. I wouldn't take my word for it, though.

It depends if you already beat GTA 4. Also, this doesn't belong in the off-topic forum.

Exchange one bad game for another? Just pick up something good!

nooo, don't give up GTA. Lost and Damned is great, and another expansion is coming. you'll probably end up just buying it again, so don't give it up.

If you can trade a used game for a brand new game, then yes, financially that is a really good deal.

Essentially, you are trading in a great game for a piece of shit. That doesn't sound like a very good deal to me.

He's one of those guys lucky enough to have a PS3 while we're trapped with Xbox 360s (no sarcasm)



Fuck World At War bro go get Killzone 2 and Resident Evil 5. Pretend World at War was never made, like Call of Dooty 3.

I would say that it isn't a good deal. I've played and completed both, the single player on GTA is great and you know you can go back to it and just mess around. Once you complete COD, there's not that much you can do. Well apart from the Zombie mode but that gets a bit boring after the novelty has worn off. Multiplayer wise, COD is more fun than GTA and alot more people play it but essentially what you are getting is an updated version of COD4 with better maps but worse weapons.

It's not an updated version buddy it's just Call of Duty 4 with a cheap facelift done in Mexico, on the internets we call that a mod.

I am gonna assume yo have COD4?  If not you have to get that.  Just keep the game, get Lost and Damned and pick up COD4 for cheap.  Wont regret it.

Have you seen Graphics comparisons? The first level on Call of Duty 4 (Boat level) blows anything in that poor excuse of a game away. Treyarch's palette for that game consisted of brown and baby poo green.

Hmm, I don't remember the boat level blowing me away. I always remember though liking the US missions in the desert place. While COD:WaW may be a bit blander in terms of landscape and colour, I think it looks better for what Treyarch have done than what Infinity Ward did with COD:4. That being said though, COD 4 is a year older so graphics are expected to be better for WaW.

World at War is definitely not a pretty game, Modern Warfare looks a lot better. This thread is going off-topic.

Not a good deal, World at War is mediocre at best.

If you only intend to play the single-player.. hell no. Playing GTA through again would be better than playing world at war once. I didn't find it good. As for multiplayer... yeah its pretty good. And obviously its really similar to COD4 but the more you play W@W multiplayer, the more the little mistakes they made become apparent.

I would probably jump in here and say as a PS3 owner, you're not going to get anything more out of GTA4 and as such dude, totally trade it if you're done with it.

Although I would advise you trade it against a title more worth your while and just wait til this year's holiday season for MW2 -- COD:WAW wasn't great.
