Call of Duty 4 is pretty awesome
So I have had very little time to play game recently being in crunch for my own game, but sometimes you just have to make time and that is what I did for Call of Duty 4. I decided to check out the PC version and I was extremely impressed with what Infinity Ward was able to do. The attention to detail and polish was just outstanding, as well as the extremely well crafted combat scenarios that keep you on the edge of your seat through the entire game. The graphics were were not on Crysis level, but still very nice looking and consistent in terms of art direction which is becoming more and more important these days. The story while cliche, was memorable because of the shocking risks that Infinity Ward did with character development, I’ll try not to spoil what happens, but you rarely see anything like this in games these days. I have read various people complain about the length of the game, but I found it to be hitting the sweet spot of long enough without becoming a chore. I wouldn’t have mind a little longer game, but the experience was very satisfying. I am personally waiting to play multiplayer on the Xbox 360, so I really can’t comment on how it is in the final game. I was on the beta on Xbox Live and that was extremely fun, more so then the Halo 3 beta. I’m really interested in what Infinity Ward will be doing next, hopefully doing a new intellectual property as they are an extremely talented team and it would be a shame if they have to keep churning out Call of Duty year after year.
