...utterly nailed the metamorphosis of Call of Duty. Playing as a U.S. Marine and staggering from the flaming ruins of a downed chopper, I fell and breathed my last toxic breaths surveying a scene of desolate post-nuclear destruction. This interlude was entirely for dramatic effect, you see, and on its own would have been a pretty awesome moment for any FPS. Yet it was something else which made this a uniquely refreshing inclusion for a game in the genre: ...

I am pleased to say that infinity ward have made a brilliant game and Call of Duty 4 will be played and enjoyed for many years to come!

...mentioned before I really enjoyed Call of Duty 3 and I wasn't too sure how they could improve this series, especially the on-line play. I felt that another game could push the series a bit thin a bit like some sequels to films.
So after playing this now since its release was I left disappointed or did it completely stop my quest for finding something constructive?
THE IDEA BEHIND THE GAME
Ok I knew before I played this game that the makers ...

Advantages: Every Aspect Of The Game Disadvantages: None Really, More weapons and abilities perhaps?
...by far the most popular call of duty game released, and it is not hard to see why, there are many many positive points to this game.
Story
The story for this can take part in many locations throughout the game, Prypiat, Russia and the middle east, You are hunting down the terrorists as mainly a young SAS member named Soap MacTavish, but also as Sergeant Paul Jackson of the USMC.

...much to do with the Call of Duty series. I own Call of Duty 2 for X - Box but wasn't really that impressed to be honest with you. Compared to Brothers in Arms and Medal of Honour I found Call of Duty 2 to be far to easy and although the concept of following the 1st Division through the war was interesting I found there was far to little story line. Additionally the levels were basic and over to quickly.
So when a friend offered to trade Call of ...

Advantages: Gameplay, graphics, mission style and script Disadvantages: Lack of co-op mode, no split screen xbox live multiplayer
Essentially a standard FPS, Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare stands high above the rest, carving a new path in the oh-so-typical and familiar world of war games.
The Call of Duty franchise has been going now since the original game was created in the fall of 2003, and has since released a steady stream of games (each of terrific quality) into the public domain. Initially no more original really than the Medal of Honour games, with it's increase in ...

Advantages: Best online gaming ever, loads of online unlockables, realism at highest level ever! Disadvantages: Story mode short and no online achievements - only single player ones.
...That's outdated now. Look to Call of Duty 4.
But first, let's go into the single player mode.
The single player story mode pits you as Private Soap McTavish to start off with. He is a new recruit with the British SAS. You got to do a training session for the first part of the story mode. After completing that, you go and try to eliminate a nuclear threat from Al-Asad and his group of terrorists after they claim the west has destroyed their culture, ...

Advantages: Stunning graphics, Great gameplay, Online play never gets boring Disadvantages: No co-op mode (offline & online), Regenerating health may annoy some
This was one of my first Xbox 360 games and I think I have played it more than all my other games collectively. It was also the first COD game that I have bought and the story made perfect sense nonetheless, so this would be the perfect game to get you started.
The storyline is interesting, relatively easy to follow and does not require an much political knowledge. It revolves around a possible-WWIII style situation in which has you dropped into ...

Advantages: Good storyline, fast-paced, great graphics and sound, multiplayer... pretty much everything Disadvantages: Veteran difficulty takes some work
Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare is the 4th in the series of Call of Duty games; however it is the first to have a storyline in a period that is not World War 2. For many this gave the impression at first that the developers had run out of ideas for World War 2 games, and perhaps that this game would be a letdown following the previous games' success. However this definitely wasn't the case, as this game is one of the biggest success stories in the ...

...as if you have to call the shots and make an effort to be efficient as possible. My favourite mission is one playing as a two-man sniper force for the S.A.S. where you can get an achievement for completing the level without alerting the enemy. You really feel as if failure to be stealthy will cost you your life.

The graphics on COD4 far excel those of other shooters for the Xbox 360 such as Halo 3. The maps are very detailed and the ...

...modifiers that allow you to call in additional help depending upon how you do. this is cool as you can call in UAV for radar (3 kills in a row without dying), air support by plane (5 kills in a row), helicopter support (7 kills in a row). In a fairly even match this is really good fun. However if the teams are uneven in capability, then they can really crush you which can lead to a very unsatisfactory game. Don't forget you can call in all 3 supports ...

Up until now the Call of Duty series has bin a world war theme first person shooter but now there is Call of Duty that has a title Modern Warfare. Now it takes place in modern societies, not it involves running around the middle east, Russia dealing with all these nuclear disaster fees really high stake stuff, really powerful but short single player campaign backed up with some intense multi player action.

Advantages: Great graphics, great sound, tons of weapons, lots of missions Disadvantages: Veteran difficulty is VERY difficult!
...of the biggest positives for Call of Duty 4 is that it now plays out much like a movie. You take control of both the British SAS and the US Marine Corps (alternately) and participate in approximately 17 different missions. Rather than feeling like a First Person Shooter, and just having to kill everything, it's apparant that Infinity Ward have gone to great lengths to make this an epic title that requires more emotional participation than merely pointing ...
