    Este juego es genial, comenzo ser una competencia contra Halo ya que esta entrega para adelante estaba adaptandose bien a consolas
    Vas a ver una orda de enemigos y compañeros en los niveles como si estuvieses en la segunda guerra mundial, tenia un multijugador online (tambien puedes jugar en pantalla dividida)

    Graficos para su epoca: 8/10

    I remember how hard it was to beat it in the hardest difficulty. It took me weeks.

    Answer: 75 characters is between 10 words and 19 words with spaces included in the character count. If spaces are not included in the character count, then 75 characters is between 12 words and 25 words.

    For a game of its era the graphics were good and the combat was great. The only drawback for me was the weak story and poorly designed NPC's. It has non-stop actions and it's a fantastic WW2 game!

    COD 2 c'est le roi la légende le maitre.
    C'est la meilleure campagne solo ever le jeu qui a tout inventé sur le multijoueur.
    Ca reste le jeu qui a fait exploser la licence.

    One of the best Call of Duty games ever made and just a great interpretation of WWII. This game makes you feel like a part of that time in history and gives a glimpse of what war was like. A very good game, a very good shooter, and the 2nd best WWII game second only to Call of Duty: World at War.

    Honestly it's better than what Call of Duty is now. The amount of times the AI in story mode saved my behind is nothing compared to the dumb ones in the newer games. I said what I said.

    Call of Duty 2 is a great sequel. In 2005, she simply had no competitors. You should also consider porting the game to Xbox 360. It was 2 part of COD that allowed the series to switch to consoles and also change the game industry. Classic genre worth recommending to everyone.

    One of the best call of duty game in the franchise and it so amazing dat it's a launch title.
    The only way the game Fields old is the checkpoint system field clunky sometimes but it only in some very few missions.
    The AI is very dynamic which makes it still one of the bunny game to play single player

    It was a wonderful game for the time. Not sure if it needs to be played in 2020, but surely it was one of the fundamental shooters ever.

    Growing up I used to be all about Medal of Honor, in particularly Frontline which came out in 2002. Then Call of Duty came out and I played it but never finished it for some reason.

Then Call of Duty came out and I played it but never finished it for some reason. But then this sequel came out and BOY did this win me over and leave the Medal of Honor franchise behind. Not only are the graphics amazing (that still hold up pretty good today) but the campaign levels from each faction are great. You play as the Russians, British, and Americans and all of them have stand out levels. My only complaint would be that the Russian segments were a tad bit too long and the US segment was a tad bit too short. I can see why they did what they did because well we've always play as the US but I wanted to at least play as them a bit more than the other factions. Other than that minor complaint, a phenomenal game that might be my favorite World War II shooter as of date.… Expand

    This Xbox 360 launch title really blew my mind. The game felt so real and it really sucked you in. It also presented a challenge at its hardest game mode, unlike any shooter I was used to at the time. This was the new benchmark in the FPS genre and GOTY for Xbox 360 in 2005.

    We should never forget that at the roots, Call of Duty was one of (the ?) best FPS about World War 2, the second episode of the franchise is still a living proof of how great they recreated this awful, yet epic conflict in a remarkable game with three different campaign offering more than 10 hours of gameplay (if only the modern episodes could take it in example).

    Obviously aged hasn't be kind to the game and all the visual aspects feel outdated (which is pretty normal 10 years after) at the time they were great, but the audio of the game is still awesome and when playing in veteran (one false step and you're dead), you hear dozens of bullets, explosions, and germans shouting all around you, you're kind of afraid and make the game very engagin. We also have a great IA especially for your allies (it's not often in FPS than you don't feel like your teammates are just waiting for you to do all the job) and big scale combats with a lot of characters at the screen. Technically this game was fabulous for 2005.

    The only main default of the game is the abuse of infinite respawn enemies in certain areas, I'm strongly against this in FPS (except of course when you're objective is to hold a position for a certain amount of time), too bad because the rest of the level design is near perfection.

    In conclusion even 10 years after the game is still a reference for the FPS genre, and if you like shooters and don't care too much about visuals I strongly advised this game (you'll find it for almost nothing in the market) you won't be disappointed.    … Expand

    The sequel in the series Call Of Duty is far better than my expectations. With 3 separate campaigns (Russian, British and American) and over 30 missions in total, outstanding variety of weapons for you to select, and enemy AIs being a lot more brilliant fighting with strategies, I' sure you certainly will not be disappointed.

    Call of Duty 2 is a very addictive game, if you like these WW2 weapons more than all those modern high-tech stuff this game is great, The rifle only servers in the multiplayer can keep you going for ages.

    I've been playing this game since 2005 and have played over 4000 hours now.

    Awe-inspiring visuals and sound, brilliantly high-octane gameplay, and a beautiful sense of simplicity highlight "Call Of Duty 2," Infinity Ward's perfect farewell to the WWII shooter genre.

    Meh, single player was alright. Its multiplayer is probably the 2nd best in terms of CoD games so far, hillariously. It only lacks the multiplayer rpg features of cod4.

    The definitive, most universally appealing WWII title ever made. It's not that the game does anything more or less than its digital brothers in arms, far from it, but instead it strips the genre down to the bare essentials and this turns it into one of the most pure shooters we've seen for some time.

    A freakin' work of art. It is, without a doubt, the best-looking console game to date, and the most psychotically intense World War II shooter to boot.

    Almost everything that makes the PC version one of the year's best shooters remains intact on the Xbox 360 version of the game, which looks just as good and actually runs smoother than all but the most beastly of gaming PCs.
