"If truth be told, I made very little effort in securing a beta key for Call of Duty 5. I thought I would wait until the final game came out at the end of November and enjoy the experience then. Thanks must go to the nice lady at Activision who offered me one of only a few beta keys left. Suffice to say the last two evenings have seen me venture back to the shenanigans of World War 2 with aplomb."

"While watching the demo I was mesmerized by the quality of the graphics, the smoothness of the gameplay and the depth of the experience. Later when I went to play the game out on the floor it was just as engrossing. The rich, dynamic environment coupled with the feeling of a massive battle raging around you really pulls you into the game and makes you forget about the world around you."
