IGN: Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare Review

Linkin Park Fan | November 06, 2007 | Reviews | PC Playstation 3 
The first review from IGN for Call Of Duty 4: Modern Warfare. This is the first Call Of Duty game that takes place in modern time and not World War 2, which is a great step up from the previous games. The game is getting great reviews from other websites and it looks like IGN is impressed a lot by the game in a whole. They are disappointed though by the length of the single player saying it is to short, but multi-player should keep you busy.

Final Score=9.4/10
They say war is hell. Infinity Ward's Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare takes you to the very depths of Hades. The long-awaited COD4, IW's follow-up to the excellent Call of Duty 2, is a jarring, intense, and gripping take on war in the new millennia. The enemies are smarter, the weapons are deadlier, and the grenades all too plentiful. COD4 will shake loose your fillings and have you begging for more.

Infinity Ward was born out of the success of retelling some of the greatest battles in World War II. The company has become synonymous with the virtual beach at Normandy. So it was quite a gamble to break from the comfort zone of Nazi-occupied Europe and leap into present day. The gamble paid off. Ghost Recon, Rainbow Six, and every other military-based shooter has been put on notice. There is a new standard to judge this sub-genre and it is Call of Duty 4.

    Nice. Very nice.

    10/10 in the graphics department? Excellent.

    Meh, I wasn't overly impressed by the multiplayer in the beta, sure I know it's just a small and early watered down sample of the real thing, not to mention the campaign, but I just really don't think the multiplayer was as good as everyone was raving about.

      Really? Is there anything specific you can say that was a disappointment in the multiplayer? How good is it compared to other online shooters (don't compare to the hype)?

      I haven't played the game yet (just the single player demo). So I'm curious about what everyone's opinion is.
