Nov 5, 2013Been up playing COD GHOSTS all night and it is fantastic. Single Player is great fun, loads of variety and amazing polish and production values, MP is the best I have ever played from a COD game yet and Extinction mode is absoultely brilliant (if you like Zombies, you will LOVE Extinction). I've got no idea why the press and user scores are so polarised here on Metacritic as THIS GAME ROCKS!
-
Feb 28, 2014The game is good if you want to play GameBattles. But overall it's pretty bad. A campaign without a good story. The multiplayer is bad except for GameBattles that I mentioned earlier.... I have played all of the Call of Duty games and I have to admit. This is the most disappointing one.
-
May 27, 2014Good but short campaign mode, you end up wanting to play more, specially the space and diver missions. Single player parts in the games this days feels more like just a warm up to play the multiplayer game. Finished it in about 6 hours of game play... With that say it was fun and the graphics look really good.

May 27, 2014The Story of this CoD Game was in my Opinion the Best of all. Cant wait till Ghosts 2 is released ! The Missions in this are so good and the Graphics are damn good too !

Feb 19, 2015I find this game awesome because of the DLCs are interesting. Onslaught is cool but I still want the 3 other Map packs. Hell the skins camo for guns I find the most interesting, under $5. An average CoD game.

Jun 25, 2014Besides my opinion of Ghosts having a crappy online multiplayer, it's not all bad. The amazing gameplay of the campaign and extinction ties the whole game together.

Apr 1, 2014I really like the singel-player game, really detailed and thought through, but I really think the multiplayer is a un-sharpen diamond. It got some flaws with spawn points and I think they should have a little spawn time.

Nov 18, 2013I thought Call of Duty: Ghosts was one of the better Call Of Duties. It brought in some cool new game modes like Cranked, Search and Rescue, and my favorite Hunted. The Sliding feature also made for some extra fun. The Campaign was a solid one in for me. The only complaint was extinction. It can be fun in some ways but could have been a lot better.
-
May 25, 2014The best call of duty yet good graphics amazing campaign and a good special game mode. its the most smooth call of duty I have ever played and I have been playing cod since cod 2 overall a great cod!
-
Nov 17, 2013I don't know what game the others are playing but my COD Ghosts is awesome! Not only are the graphics sweet as sugar the fact that it runs so smoothly is just icing on the gravy. Extinction is incredible fun and for the first time I actually like the campaign. The definitive version is this one.

Nov 24, 2013Great graphics, smooth gameplay. Online multiplayer is more of the same but always enjoyable. I prefer this game over MW3. I actually thought the story was good. The Modern Warfare series always jumped around too much for my liking, it was all over the place. CoD Ghosts is more of a cohesive story.

Nov 5, 2013Loved it, it shows a series getting back on track, Black ops 2 wasn't all that great but this is epic! I'v spent four hours on it and I'm impressed. I can understand the negativity though. It's still the same formula
-
Nov 5, 2013I really don't see anything wrong with the game, it's exactly what I expected it to be. It has great gameplay and I like what Infinity Ward did with the new streamlined look on the multiplayer side. Great job infinity ward, but I think it could've been better though.
-
Nov 6, 2013Perfect game!! The Single Player is awesome, and multiplayer is awesome too. I realy don't know why people are avaling this game so negative, maybe they are CoD hatters or BF funboys, but it doesn't matter, what matters is that the game is soooooooo much funny and cool, for me, the best of the year!

Nov 19, 2013People need to stop giving it such bad scores, it's a good game... 7.5-8 in reality. So much trollin' going on about graphics too, I bet you won't tell when playing PS4 vs. Xbox One. I have both and not sure which to get yet, mainly based on what friends get it for.

Nov 16, 2013I enjoyed it I am only in the third level but so far so. Tons of explosions and great graphics. The Alien extinction is excellent and fun to play. Will play this game for awhile.

Nov 22, 2013this is the game that I love and know and want to play forever, killzone no one likes dat game, its all about cod. I love this game so much, this is the game for the hardcore so if ur like me u shuld pick it up
-
Nov 5, 2013This game has what most people want in a shooter; quick to gameplay multiplayer, fair matchmaking and it is designed with practicality in mind. Don't let yourself get influenced by the amount of negative reviews. Play it and see for yourself.
-
Nov 7, 2013Amazing game. Played 10 hours of multiplayer so far and im impressed. The sound is great and the new game is amazing. I've played all COD games and im enjoying this one very much. It's not a perfect game, but nothing that cant be fixed with a patch. Two issues, spawn locations and add more game types.
-
Nov 7, 2013You know what this is not a review. How in the hell can anybody give a review on a game when the system isn't even out yet. I'am ashamed of this generation of gamer's that are here and that are coming. All you wanna do is and argue. You complain with your little console wars. A true gamer doesn't play one system. A true gamer play's everything. P.S this is a rant

Nov 5, 2013This content is absolutely amazing. I'll agree that the campain is not as good as Black Ops II, but then still the campain is magnificent. The multiplayer is just great. I have always liked Infinety Ward way better than Treyarch. This may be why I am such a fan of this game it reminds me of MW3 and I absolutly loved that game.

Jan 10, 2014Ghosts is an excellent game, don't be fooled by the haters, if call of duty is your thing then buy it, you won't be disappointed. However if you are a pseudo intellectual hipster you may want to get it anyway even if just to give you something to whinge about, or not ( who cares what they think ).

Nov 30, 2013Its'a good game but it has a piece of mw2 that is the final in mw2 finishes that soap is hurt and here logan that is the protagonist is hurt at the start of the game that is the próloge .when i saw the final didn't like very much beacuse the antogonist i think that won
-
Nov 30, 2013Hilarious reviews from some people. Things like "each year I buy Call of Duty and I really believed this one would be different to all the others" really!?!? I would've given this a solid 8/10 you know what you're gonna get with a COD game and it doesn't disappoint. I gave it a 10 because there are some really tools on this site given a game like this a 0. Behave.

Jan 19, 2014I dont know, I have played the old call of duty on PS2 this one is on the PS4 and I love it. I think it is awesome. Now granted I have been out of the gaming arena for some time and now I am back, as far as I can tell this game is up there in my mind as GOLD baby.

Apr 8, 2014Very addictive game. People say it's bad because they either suck or they hate the Call of Duty series. Some of you guys are just saying that Call of Duty: Ghosts is bad because it is. No, it's not because it's bad, it's actually because Ghosts is a difficult game, even on singleplayer. Rate me bad all you want, do your worst!

Feb 6, 2014The game is honestly about a seven but the idiots on metecritic that give this game a zero for simply being call of duty are ridiculous. i admit that its not the best game but a game like lococycle isnt even a zero. so people need to stop crying about call of duty doing what its done best since world at war.
-
Feb 13, 2014Objectively Call of Duty: Ghosts is a solid first person shooter with an average single player but an excellent multiplayer. Nevertheless the graphics are not very impressive.
-
Apr 29, 2014this game is amazing when it first came out, after abit it gets abit boring, theres was alot of bugs with this game when it first came out but they sorted it all out, the game is just like other call of dutys, they need to cdo something big and change something like making campaign online, i duno but the need to do something big to make call of duty the way it was when it first came out.
-
Jun 30, 2014Cannot understand the low user score of just 3.4, this game does not deserve that score, yeah its not the best COD and could be a lot better but 3.4?? really!!?? - i enjoyed the story and the graphics are good, the online is the same old COD style as every year. Its not the best game on the ps4 but its certainly not a 3.4 standard game

Nov 9, 2014its a real beautiful and action game. even my family which are hate video games, like it. it has a good graphic and its game-play is full of action and excitation.
in one game, you are in helicopter, a diver in reef , a soldier, a sniper , .... -
Mar 2, 2018For me the campaign was generic and boring. The multiplayer was fun with friends and bots but online it's kind of frustating because there could be a lot of campers. If you buy the gun called "the ripper" the mulitiplayer could be more fun though. The extinction mode was fun and challenging and by far is the most beneficiated with the DLC's. I think that is a good PS4 COD.
-
Dec 22, 2022game is very good, story, plot and character, I played a lot on my ps3, too bad it broke
-
Jul 17, 2020I miss this game so much. The weapons were all fun and balanced (nothing was useless), the maps had the most variety in a call of duty game, hit detection was perfect and aim assist the lowest in the series, fluid animations, and the highest skill gap in the series. Hope to get a remaster one day...multiplayer only.
-
Dec 2, 2013When I see the start of a user review with 'Dont play this game' or This game is terrible' I immediately think hater and regardless of whether it was good or not they were never going to score it well. So skip all those reviews scoring 0 or 1 just wasting the space on here. Oh the game is sweet I like it a lot.

May 11, 2014Stock Standard COD, nothing really new here, still fun tho, especially multiplayer. Graphics are better than previous editions but I'm expecting the next instalment to take it to another level.
-
Mar 28, 2015Call of Duty: Ghosts is the best on Playstation 4. The game runs smoothly, as the gameplay feels really good. Out of all the options to play, this version is the one to go to.
-
Feb 3, 2019Rad, Bombastic, Testosterone spewing and Adrenaline filled game which is hugely underrated by the wider FPS community.
There is NOTHING wrong with this as a balls to the wall shooter. Its got fantastic set pieces and a decent enough story.
I hope the next COD is Ghosts 2
Picked it up cheap, you should too! -

Nov 18, 2015Great online play, Campaign was fairly good, a bit to predictable. (no futuristic bullcrap, its not halo!!) Sick of all the mockers, of good games! Not as good as the original Black Ops, but, the game, has a poor user score, so a 10/10 should help... It deserves better than a 3.5/10!

Feb 18, 2016I just played the game and found it to be one of my favorite COD's of all time. The combat was amazing and the story was intriguing. The campaign was a little short but other than that it was a pretty great game.
-
Mar 25, 2016i know many people didn't liked the story..even i also didn't..but the game play is good..and when u play it offline with your siblings u enjoy it a lot..secondly it doesn't have any robotic tech like black ops III which is good..now it is available for a very less amount..if u have tight budget u must go for it
-
May 3, 2016Hands down the best experience when it comes to cod! I miss the good old ghost days, it was one of the greatest games of all time, better then The witcher 3, skyrim, darksouls, doom 1 and 2, quake and unreal. every game is terrible in comparison!

Nov 30, 2016la historia empieza suave y va in crescendo hasta llegar a unas fases finales magníficas, Infinity Ward nunca defrauda en su modo historia
un modo online más cercano al COD4 original que a las locuras de ventajas y rachas que vinieron a partir de MW2
y un modo Aliens que suma -
Oct 15, 2016is'nt a perfect cod game i know but the game is cool on the multiplayer i love the history
this gmae have a brasil voices(im brazilian)its a good cod for xbox 360 and ps3
but on pc he is not a cool game -
Nov 6, 2016It has a good online part the people draw so good you can feel them they are big and it's good it's a new news who you can control the dog its story is normal and it has wonderful guns 2 players can play it together on a console it's good but it can be better and I like it

Aug 10, 2017Cюжет прикольный (хотя главный герой ничего ни разу не сказал) , графика приятная
Именно с GHOSTS началось мое знакомство с Call of Duty, и ничего плохого про игру сказать не могу. -
May 8, 2019I dont understand the hate for this game. What it does - it does well. COD: Ghosts is a fun summer blockbuster shooter with good graphics and production value. The short campaign was worth the $25 cost for entry a few years after release. Most of the negative reviews are people who hate Call of Duty just to hate on Call of Duty
-
May 6, 2018This game I should simply amazing. Everything you could want in a call of duty game. The ability to customize to your style, killer and fun score streaks, small, medium and large maps that are wide open and allow you to snipe anywhere, or run and gun with a shotgun. This game has it all. Super fun multiplayer with great DLC maps. One of the top 3 best call of duties made.
-
May 27, 2018It has a good single player, Beside the mutliplayer isn't that bad, It is from the best games that i have played on 2015
-
Feb 23, 2019The first Call Of Duty on the PS4, Ghosts features a highly spectacular campaign and the usual online multiplayer fun. The 18 campaign missions are very varied and explosive, although they are all quite short. The underwater and space missions are particularly memorable and so are the helicopter gunship and tank missions. A decent episode in the series.

Dec 3, 2020I played the campaign of the game and I absolutely loved it. It might be my favorite call of duty campaign so far. Every mission is filled with action set pieces along with fast paced gameplay. I didn't play multiplayer when it came out.
-
May 15, 2020Great campaign.
Really enjoyed it, even if it is 7 years old. Loved the end -
Jun 20, 2020COD players weren't ready for something more... refined as this great game.

Nov 2, 2020Eu queria odiar esse jogo, realmente queria. O gosto que ficou na minha boca após MW3 me deixou com medo de que a franquia tivesse atingido o pico

Pelit (Finland)Mar 10, 2014Call of Duty: Ghosts isn’t treading any new ground, but the single player campaign is still a memorable one. But with each installment it’s getting harder and harder to get excited about Call of Duty’s multiplayer. Refining the same ideas over and over again is no longer enough, the multiplayer is in dire need of a complete re-design. [Nov 2013]

Jan 3, 2014Call of Duty is a series that is oftentimes criticized for making the same game year after year, which is of course totally true and Ghosts is no exception. It even feels like a step back. The campaign is devoid of anything interesting and even the online part feels uninspired. It’s not a bad game by any means but it’s like its predecessors, only worse.
