Full review
I got Call Of Duty 4 On the day it was released in the United Kingdom - And I have to say I have loved it since then. I play computer games quite abit, having racked up more than 600+ hours Of call of duty 2 on the PC. No game has ever caught my attention for longer than a month, except call of duty 2. So, I hoped that Call Of Duty 4 would live up to its relative, CoD2.
To my delight, I loved Call of Duty 4 far more than Call Of Duty 2, and have played 200 hours of it so far! Heres Some personal opinions on the game for you:
Playability and Enjoyment
Call of Duty 4 is mostly played on Multiplayer, So if you have a good internet connection - Great! Call Of Duty 4 is perfect for you if you like a good old Shoot 'Em up! But If you plan to play singleplayer, dont expect to be playing it as much as them crazy gamers. The game is very enjoyable, and it feels great when you pull a headshot, or do something crazy, but on the other hand, try to keep a fair head because it can get a little frustrating when your doing nothing but dieing.
Adictiveness
The game Is very addictive, in a good way :) With many guns, maps, and options, your bound to play over 500 hours if you have quite alot of time. And if you join a clan, be prepared to play ALOT! When your in a clan, the possibilities really are endless... trainings, tournaments, clan matches, you can be playing for days and days with out getting bored!
Originality
The game is very unique, while most of the Shoot em up games are either World war 2, or the future, this one puts you into a world that is... well... as it is now! Only difference is countries are at war :P This is great because it lowers the confusion. The guns are like todays modern world, no 'Laser guns' or '1st Century rocks' involved. Good old Carbines, AK47s, and RPG's :)
Graphics
If your computer is good enough, you will be playing a game that looks almost liek real life. In a way, Looking at the sun in game actually hurts your eyes. One thing abut CoD4 though is you must make sure your computer is good enough, and its best to have a good PC, otherwise your looking at poor performance. To have your graphics look good and smooth, have a resolution as 1024x768 with specular map and glow ON. Keep shaddows off and dynamic lights low, they dont do much and cut you down.
Sound
Sounds are pretty much always good in PC games, so theres not much to say. The sounds are great though, with alot of ambient background noises to keep it real.
Difficulty & Complexity
Singleplayer - There are four modes, easy, medium, hard, and very hard (veteran) so what ever skill you are, you will be able to kill alot, and get owned :) Multiplayer - This all depends on how good you are with a keyboard and mouse, but your sure to have some good times and bad times, just relax and play. :)
Value for money
10/10 for Value if your a multiplayer fan, but if you only want singleplayer I would give it a 8/10. Its still fun!
Longevity/Expected Longevity
As said; If you are a RPG fan and have a good internet connection, with time, its likely to get 500+ hours, possible even more than 1000 hours if your a serious gamer! Singleplayer you can get a good 100 hours out of it. So expect to be occupied for a while! but remember theres a world out there ;)My Over all Ratings:
For Longevity/Expected Longevity I gave it a few months, because I cant say ongoing, its not possible to be playing it in 20 years... but it could last you a few years!
Final words of the game:
A very good game, in my opinion one of the best RPG games. Ever. If you can, get this game! you wont be dissapointed!
