    This game doesn't deserve so much criticism JUST because it goes back to the WWII theme. There have been hundreds of games about WWII and even the BIA HH is also WWII theme and nobody complains about it. I think it has fantastic graphics, unbelievable sound and atmosphere.

    This is absolutely an amazing game experience for the PC gaming. the online play is fantastic and the zombie mode adds a new quality to the call of duty warfare. Best game of 2008!

    Not a bad game at all. There are many map packs/patches now all for free. I spent over 200hrs on multiplayer and to me is more enjoyable than CoD4 multiplayer. This game isn't as much as a noob game as CoD4. You knife slower in succession, can't jump continually, reload slower, etc.

    One of the best World War 2 shooters Ive ever played. The battles are great because your not storming Normandy for the seven millionth time. There are Russian missions however these feel more darker and more brutal from previous games.

    It has a very Good campaign, but the multiplayer...
    its too much like COD4,
    though i got to level 40 in a few days, making it quite easy, not like COD4.
    One more thing: Underpowered Molotovs and overpowered machineguns makes the game quite unbalanced, but the rest is Pretty Good.

    Again, after taking the road of modern war, Call of Duty, came back at its roots, WWII, with great campaign, multiplayer, but maybe not so well filled with the aer of war, and more like the commercial shooter it began. After all, it came back at WWII and that makes happy and a little nostalgic any player who grew up with the franchise

    I like this game. Its an solid WW2 shooter. With the decent COD4 engine. There are numerous WW2 games on the market. Yet i had most fun with this. It has that Cod4 feeling, simple to pick up and play. Single player was too short but at least it offered an Zombie mod. And lets be honest we all mostly bought it for multiplayer.

The zombies mode is still though somewhat active just it has mostly players (1-2/1-3) playing on modded maps/custom maps. The game is quite a nice game if you compare it to all their newer games.

    I miss this great series that had a few easter eggs and few ways to get to places. I do not hate BO but I do hate BOII for the overloaded repetitive insane amount of easter eggs that are basically essential for living in zombies mode.

    The multiplayer is quite ok and it is one of the last remaining good multiplayer CoD's along with CoD 4 (I personally don't really like cod 4) and maybe BO.

    The campaign mode is quite amazing since well you don't have a huge amount to work with since it was based in WWII and you had no real main ways other then boats and stuff to get places.

    I really do enjoy the zombies mode and I really do enjoy that it has coop which if you look at it no other CoD has (I am 95% sure). The zombies mode is quite refreshing since it never goes the same way since 95% of the time the people you play with have 200-400 ping and they don't speak English and they are 10-12 and have no idea how to play.

    Over all I give this game a 10 even though in reality I would give it a 9 (just to balance out the 69 trolls).    … Expand

On the other hand, if you have been playing COD since COD1 and you think COD1 and COD2 are some of the best games ever made like me, you will love this game. World at War revisits the WW2 setting with a souvenir from COD4, the beautiful IW Engine 4.0. The pacific front is absolutely beautiful in the engine and the single player is gripping and exciting, just like early CODs. Characters are memorable, especially your Russian sniper friend Reznov, who leads you through a 'All Ghillied Up' styled mission, only in Nazi territory. Multiplayer is lackluster to me as with all COD games as none can really compare to the scale of the Battlefield series but the singleplayer was definitely worth it's money for me. Nazi Zombies however was a lovely addition to the game and it really shows how much care Treyarch has in trying to accomplish as much in a game as possible. All in all, Treyarch was unexpectedly capable of living up to the COD name and with Infinity Ward ruined by Activision, I would not mind having Treyarch take over.… Expand

This game makes excelent use of the CoD4's engine to recreate one of the most brutal and merciless wars our planet has ever seen. The addition of tanks and 'slightly' elevated gore deters you from going gung ho into enemy lines (but never really stops you). There's still the heart thumping, adrenaline fueled gameplay of 4 but there's much more. The sounds, the visuals, the pace and the overall feel of the game wraps you in a cucoon that has you believing for fleeting moments thatyour actually being shot at, and you truly are fighting for you're own life. You'll never feel quite the same after charging through an artillery strike (yes its idiotic but i think there's an Arnie in all of us that thinks 'i'll be fiiiiiiiine') to find yourself alive and kicking on the other side. You may even find yourself having to catch your breath on the other side when you realise that this whole time you've been holding it... One thing I will say though... ...

    I don't understand why people say that it wasn't better than CoD4. Even if it isn't, why does it have to be better? The single player was shorter than CoD4's, but it still solidly maintained the epicness of all CoD series. The Japanese banzai troops who pretended to be dead soldiers. The flamethrowers and tanks who tried to blow up the house of Dimitri and Reznov. The I don't understand why people say that it wasn't better than CoD4.

It's even better when you get to scream with your friends on microphone through Co-op mode while everybody are playing it the first time. When the campaign missions are done you can replay it countless time with the zombie mission. A very original idea which only came true on 2D flash game is now avaliable in 3D FPS. The mutiplayer is very well done as well, with all the levels and unlocks to keep yourselves busy.

Unlike COD4, I personally found myself really pulled into the life of the characters and found the game more interesting than COD4; quite possibly due to the great cut-scenes and montages during the loading screen. The plot in the game was great most of the times, with exception to some parts being a little too extreme (where normal people would have most likely died). The graphics in the game were quite visually appeasing and the sound and music for the game was amazing as well. Some weaker points in the game I have to mention is the lack of variety in close combat attacks, as it would have been so much more interesting to have a wide variety of melee attacks instead of just a few (or the exact same counterattack when you're pinned down). Another mention of problems is the attempts at realism. This includes the stupidity of the AI at times, and certain impassable terrains that could have easily been added for more realism. The AI blocking you (as realistic as that might sound) is a pain in the ass when you're trying to dodge grenades and such. After beating the game, zombie mode was quite fun as well and also worth buying the game if you ask me. it's essentially like zombie panic (half life source zombie mod), where you hold off the zombies and barricade yourself for endless waves of nazi zombies. playing with friends make it all the better as well.… Expand

Second, I would of liked to see a more dragged out storyline, especially on Peleilu, where the beach assault is over in about 2 minutes. The aspects I enjoyed were how brutal both campaigns were, the Russian one in particular. There was also a lot more depth in it than past WW2 COD games in the characters.
    Honestly, I would like to see another WW2 COD game with some parts changed-
    *AI smarter and doesn't just look at killing you only.
    *The ability to fix bayonets not just pick up weapons with them fixed already.
    *A longer storyline with more countries.
    * Not as linear.

The Zombies mode was introduced, and it was very addicting as well as multiplayer, which remains the best in the franchise in terms of balance. Still, it had flaws. Even if CoD 4 formula wasn't annoying and repetitive back then, a WWII setting was boring. Tanks in multiplayer were unnecessary. The maps setting was pretty much the same, and even after jumping from the one map to another in multiplayer, I had the feeling I've been there just a minute ago.

    Call of Duty: World At War. Good grief! I'm reviewing yet another Call of Duty game! Just a day after I got it too!

Of course, I have not and will not play any of the more recent Call of Duties (after MW2), because I have already heard people hate them. What aboutCall of Duty: World At War. Good grief! I'm reviewing yet another Call of Duty game! Just a day after I got it too! This year I finally warmed up to the Call of Duty franchise, and I actually think that it is better than Battlefield now! Of course, I have not and will not play any of the more recent Call of Duties (after MW2), because I have already heard people hate them. What about this game? This game was released after the original Modern Warfare and before Modern Warfare 2, returns to the series' original World War II setting, and has a different development team working on it. So, is this the kind of experience that will make you want to fight World War II all over again, or will this game make you tired of the WWII shooter genre? Let's find out. The gameplay of this game is about the same as the other Call of Duties that came before it. That may be a huge problem now, but when this game was released, no one cared. Basically you go through various battles in World War II as a random soldier in the war, kill as many enemies as you can, and complete various objectives along the way. What this game really succeeds in is that it makes you feel like you are actually in these battles. This game has a very intense atmosphere for each battle you take part in, and it also has infinitely respawning enemies everywhere you go to make it seem like you are in a huge battle. On paper, this seems like it would never work. However, this is Call of Duty. It has worked in the past, and here it is no exception. While the enemies don't have the best AI, the fact that they infinitely respawn makes the battles that much more interesting. The intense atmosphere also helps, as you will see many explosions and hear gunfire to make it seem like the battle is going on all around you. This game being made by a different developer from the previous Call of Duties has also changed a few things about the game. This game is much darker and more mature than the previous Call of Duties. There is a lot more gore in this game than in the previous Call of Duties, and you also get flamethrowers to burn people to death. However, it also has its zany side, with its new added Nazi Zombie survival mode. As fun as all of this sounds, this game is not without its flaws. For instance, there were a few times in the campaign where I died, and I had absolutely no idea what hit me. There was no clear indication of what hit me before I died, and I feel like this is something that the Infinity Ward games were good with. For another, this game's campaign is way too short. Yes, most Call of Duty campaigns are short, but this one was even shorter than the other ones. I managed to beat Infinity Ward's Call of Duties in 6 hours, while it only took me 4 hours to beat this one. However, these flaws are not enough to wear down this game completely. Overall, this game is a blast to play despite its flaws. As for the graphics, they are even better than the gameplay. This game was made on the Modern Warfare engine, which is very good at producing graphics. All of the environments in this game are rich with detail, and are pretty to look at. They are not the best graphics you could get from a game released around this time, but they are still pretty fantastic. As for the story, this story is actually more original than the previous WWII Call of Duties. For instance, there is no British campaign, and the American campaign now focuses on the war in the Pacific Ocean rather than the European front. In other words, the Americans are fighting the Japanese rather than Nazi Germany in this game. This is a side of the war not often shown in video games. It adds a much more unique flair to this game. As I said earlier, this game is much than the previous Call of Duties, so expect that to effect the story as much as the gameplay. The game opens right up with a torture scene for example. Other than these changes however, the game is still very much the standard Call of Duty fair. There are two separate story lines, one focuses on America fighting the Japs, while the other is the stereotypical story in the World War II Call of Duties of the Soviet Russians fighting the Nazis. The story is still great regardless of this however. Overall, while this game is not the perfect Call of Duty, it is still a great game, and well worth your time and money. It is also more unique than most other World War II shooters, focusing on a different side of the war. I recommend this game to anyone who is looking for a more unique World War II shooter, or just another good first person shooter. Either one of these criteria would fit these people perfectly.

    Игра отлична. Хорошая, последняя игра о Второй мировой перед шквалом игр о будущем. Хороший геймплей. Игра не долгая и не короткая. Сюжет хороший. Персонажи запоминаються. Это единственная игра в которой есть оружия с штыками.Игра отлична. Хорошая, последняя игра о Второй мировой перед шквалом игр о будущем. Хороший геймплей. Игра не долгая и не короткая.

    this is the most soulful game from Activision from the beginning to the end of the game holds the bar cons in sometimes plastic locations

    Игра мне понравилась. Много чего крутого - сюжет, графика, геймплей, и тк.д. Минусы заключаются в техническом характере.

    Переосмысление на новом движке, сюжет, персонажи (особенно Виктор Резнов) и я хочу сказать да, у них получилось. Но это было то время, очень многое получалось в те времена, в отличие от настоящего. Игра действительно цепляет своей подачей, атмосферой Второй мировой, персонажами, динамикой происходящего и это укомплектовано так как и должно было быть.

Но это было то время, очень многое получалось в те времена, в отличие от настоящего. Игра действительно цепляет своей подачей, атмосферой Второй мировой, персонажами, динамикой происходящего и это укомплектовано так как и должно было быть. В первый раз я проходил игру на пиратке, уже очень давно, и это было шикарное время препровождение. Я прошел ее за один заход, просто сел и прошел. Она сама по себе не имеет очень продолжительный сюжет, но как я заметил это лишило ее абсолютной линейности. Игра весьма динамична, вот ты бежишь в наступление со своими товарищами, как тут же уже сидишь в танке и бомбишь вражеские аванпосты. И нет ни какого резкого отрыва, игра плавно перемещает тебя из задания к заданию, но это и придает ей динамичности.

    Сюжет также заставляет испытывать от игры положительные эмоции. Как это часто бывает в серии COD, игроку предоставляют возможность пройти кампанию за двух военнослужащих, абсолютно ни как друг с другом не связанных (в некоторой степени, чтобы передать дух войны на разных фронтах). Американская компания за рядового Миллера получилась достаточно правдоподобной, все таки даже из истории мы должны знать, что война американцев с японцами была довольно кровопролитной. В игре это вообразили достойно, пару трагических случаев заставляют игрока почувствовать ту настоящую войну. Компания СССР, так вообще получилась на все 100%. Это как будто то, что и нужно было. Рядовой Красной армии Дмитрий Петренко и его верный соратник Виктор Резнов, нельзя передать словами какой харизмой обладает данный персонаж. Он всюду сопровождает игрока (Дмитрия Петренко), и каждый раз он способен на то, чтобы удивлять своим характером. Я поражался его прямолинейностью на войне, он шел только вперед и даже не хотел слушать об отступлении. Самое интересное, что у него все получалось, он как будто был создан, чтобы воевать и побеждать. Его речи часто носили пропагандистский характер, и они действительно заставляли думать так как он говорит. Большей харизмой его одарил Гарри Олдмен, озвучивающий его актер. Все это вобрало в себя идеального персонажа. Кстати в игре COD: Black Ops, он тоже показал себя запоминающее.

    Может быть кто-то пропустил эту игру или просто не счел нужным пройти. Поверьте, она не оставит вас равнодушным. Пройти нужно обязательно. Для меня она однозначно входит в те части серии, которые остались там, в далеком прошлом. И которые нужно помнить до сих пор.    … Expand

    One of the best WW2 games imo. Graphics were really good for its age. I remember playing this for too many hours for a single title.

    This has got to be one of the best call of duty's i have ever played. good story, decent multiplayer and awesome Nazi zombies. mods are amazing. only downside is that the steam workshop doesn't support waw's mods but thats not the games fault. you should buy this.

    This game was good. But in my opinion, it wasn't as good as Modern Warfare... Anyway, it was a nice experience.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I love Call of Duty World at War. Even though I played late it is so much fun. Have played the newer zombies modes, I just couldn't wait to play the original version, and it's perfect. I haven't played the doc maps in their original form, but from Call of Duty Black Ops 3 Zombies Chronicles and The Giant, I have a blast. My only problem is thee multiplayer. I play it a lot still, but I wish the the loadout were customizable in local play and that you could just play by yourself with and test out a map. And the campaign is just so much fun, playing as a Russian and American in the battles of D-day and The walk to Berlin after Stalingrad is just so fun. But I feel that Call of Duty World at War is worth it in 2020.… Expand

    i really enjoyed the singleplayer, and the multiplayer is probably more enjoyable out of the cods before ghosts

    It's a bit janky at times, but it really is one of the better games in the series.

    The World War 2 setting is done really well, there's points in the story where it feels as if you're witnessing war crimes. The zombies mode has some of the best maps in the series, and the PC version has access to custom zombies, which can vary from Nuketown to Exo Zombies.

    Treyarch came back this year with an excellent addition to the franchise. Many gamers may look at this game with an "I've been there, done that" attitude. I am here to tell you that this is the best WWII effort so far, as well as the best game in the franchise.

    Overall the game feels a bit short but is not only a very tasty bit of eye candy, and a treat for the ears as well, but a briskly paced action-adventure that should please fans of WWII first-person shooters.
