...we saw in the previous call of duty have always been successful and brought in many fans. However, this new modern age war is rather fitting with our current international climate and particular with the current fighting in the middle east.
This game consists of a rather short, but certainly not disappointing single player campaign and a superb online multiplayer mode.

During the campaign you play as both British SAS and US Marines, in many different scenarios. At first you must complete a simple training level, but are then quickly put right into the middle of the action on a quickly sinking ship which you must infiltrate and later escape whilst attacking a handful of enemies. You then encounter the real enemy in the game, being ...

Advantages: Great graphics, Good in all Places Disadvantages: n00bs
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare is definately one of the best FPS games on the gaming market. It shows the PS3 graphics at their best so far, with each bullet hole shaped differently. It was in competition with the new Medal of Honour game that was released around the same time. It knocked Medal of Honour: Airborne off the top ten in GAME.

Advantages: Tight controls, brilliant multiplayer, enjoyable story Disadvantages: One or two poor design choices compromise single player
Games like Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare (CoD4) are a rare specimen. They only come along once every few years, but when they do they change the perceptions and expectations of their entire industry.

...ever made.
The previous Call of Duty games have been set in World war 1 and 2 Time frames. Now don't get me wrong when the series started it was a great rival to medal of honour. Call of Duty 1 set a platform, Call of Duty 2 got onto that platform and then Call of Duty 3 stayed on the platform. For me, the series was getting repetitive and something needed to be done. The Franchise was in danger of becoming "that same old World war shooter" like ... ...Warfare.
In case the title doesn't give it away, this time it is set in modern times. And yes, that means no more Garands or Tommys, but Dragunov snipers and Desert Eagle pistols! The story is centered around a fictional future conflict involving the United States, the United Kingdom, and Russia, who are fighting against Russian nationalists in civil war torn Russia, and rebels that have formed a coup d'état(mutiny) in a small Middle Eastern country. ...

Call of Duty 4 is enough to make a jaded gamers jaw drop. You might think you've seen it all, but then Infinity Ward's latest war pageant rolls out some new trick, and it's like discovering the joy of gaming all over again. With a single player experience this spectacular, and with this much multiplayer content, here's a shooter you won't want to miss.

As a story, Call of Duty 4 is a solid Clancy-esque politico-thriller, grim and uncomfortably topical. Their previous historical games always felt like a contrived tour of the Greatest Hits of World War II, but these set pieces tie into a central narrative, complete with a cast of characters. It's told mostly from the perspectives of an American and a British soldier whose storylines eventually converge. There's even a nicely developed back ...

Call of Duty 4 is the new PS3 war game in which we see the game come to the Modern Warfare stages. The game is the newest in the hugely successful Call of Duty franchise and a game that truly pushes the boundaries of gaming.

Review of Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare (PS3)
Advantages: Great graphis, detailed environments, good story mode, easy to pick up but difficult to master! Disadvantages: On-line play can be difficult to connect
This game has two very good features, a story mode that you can play at different levels of difficulties and on-line mode.
It seems that many title of fist person shooters are concentrating more on on-line modes, which is a shame as the story mode gives you the chance to learn the controls before going on-line, therefore avoiding the complete embarrassment of losing with only 10 points (if your'e lucky!).
The story mode switches between two forces, ... ...on the cut scenes is very good and the thread is well thought out and believable. The stages are a mixture of all out shot-kill-run and stealth-sneak-kill, which is well balanced. There is one level quite unique, which is a bird's eye view over a small town, I won't say too much but it was one of my favorites. The story mode is a little short, but with the increasing level of difficulties does give you the option to challenge yourself on a harder ...

One word that I have to say for this game: AWESOME!
This was the first game my father bought here in the Philippines. He got a discount for about £29 for a brand new copy of the game. And as I've told in my review of CoD3, my father loves these kinds of games, and he's looking forward to this one, especially because of the setting of the game.

The story is of course fiction, but then the government factions are true(my father confirms it, he really loves warfare stuff, even have a collection of airsoft gun replicas of the true ones). The good thing about this game is that it deviate so much from what we use to play with when it comes to FPS: Either sci-fi or world war. They introduced modern warfare, like how counter-strike source ...
