We have to admit we weren't really excited at the last Call of Duty reiteration, Call of Duty 3. A fine game, to be sure, but we couldn't overcome the been-there done-that feeling. Then the announcement and subsequent first peek at Call of Duty 4 in action, which did more than generate a frenzy of renewed interest. We had long since grown tired of WWII shooters and now, the leader of WWII shooters was going all modern. We took a peek at the latest trailer and literally, were blown away. The lighting on your fellow solders, the smoke entrails from heat-seeking rockets, the spinning and exploding helicopter: jack the sound up as you watch and you may find yourself sharing similar "OMFG" sentiments. Call of Duty 4 is reported to be on track for an Xbox 360, PS3 and PC release, sometime this falland it's definitely on our "must buy" list now. How about yours?
Looks pretty nice, I'll definitely put this on the watch list.
I'm just glad they are finally throwing in the towel on WWII games.
Come this fall the whining might switch to "I don't have enough time to play all these games." But then again that's a problem that I don't mind having.
I am looking forward to Medal of Honor: Airborne more. This game looks like a fun sandbox game but I think air dropping into any spot seems more fun. So my money is going with EA on this one.
I agree with you about this fall. There are so many quality games out there that many games will get left behind. Amidst Halo, Uncharted and GTA this game will probably be forgotten.
From this video you can already see and hear IW using old sounds over again in a new game. I am sorry, but if any war game is worth buying later this year, its Brothers in Arms even if it is WW2 based. Actually to be honest when this game comes out I won't be able to get away from Grand Theft Auto 4 anyways.
WOW! I'm impressed! I've never had any interest in previous Call of Duty games and this really caught me off guard. It seems the first few posters here aren't too excited but I can't help but stand up and say, I think this looks awesome!
Seeing this also makes me even more excited for Killzone, I know there hasn't really been any ingame footage shown, but seeing the CoD trailer makes me think they might just be able to pull it off.
I hope this game does really well!! I can't wait to see more.
Well graphically the COD3 port from 360 to ps3 wasn't TOO bad, it just had some network features missing and some connectivity issues.
Hopefully they'll get all that sorted, and hopefully the graphics won't take too much of a hit on the ps3, i know there was hardly a difference between COD3's versions.
If the game looks and plays like this. I'm definitely getting this, imagine how playing this online would be, Screaming into the bluetooth headset to get your teammate to watch the sniper while a cloud of dust from a grenade blows dust in your face. Or you whisper to your teammates while you all devise the best way to infiltrate and dispose of your enemies. I hope this game has Co-op with 2-4 players.
i hope this game has an amazing online version where you can bring guests online like on Xbox Live. Can anyone tell me why no PS3 games have that? it makes online gameplay so much better.
