IGN has posted a few different trailers showing the new Close Quarters Combat feature as well as some extra gameplay footage for Call of Duty 3. With the new Close Combat feature, you can do more than just bash a Nazi or two, allowing you to disarm traps such as mines, even going so far as to plant your own. Also, the game is to incorporate more destructible environments, causing the days of wood being able to block grenades without so much as denting to become a thing of the past.Considering that Treyarch, who was responsible for Call of Duty: Finest Hour and Call of Duty 2: Big Red One, which were a bit less enjoyable than the original Call of Duty and its expansion pack in United Offensive, along with the sequel on the PC, should we expect Call of Duty 3 to have the same problems as their past efforts on consoles? We sure hope not as the Call of Duty franchise has been the only enjoyable WWII shooter for quite some time.

the screens for the ps 3 don't look that much better than the 360. The big surprize is that they don't even look that much better than the Wii. It really comes down to price now. This just proves to me that the ps3 is as overpriced as it's pc is.

So soon after the last one? I wonder if there will be a longer break between three and four. I'd like to see a similar use of the Call of Duty franchise as Battlefield. Maybe Call of Duty: Iraq? I know I'd love to play something like that. The PS3 is capable of some really cool effects like the oil slicks on fire in Jarhead.

What about Day of Defeat? IMO the best!
