    This game is pretty good, with a really cool story, I really enjoyed Captain Price as always, and the multiplayer in this game paved way for what would become some of the best line up of games ever made. The customization of weapons in this game was phenomenal. The only issue I have is that it felt like the campaign was short, even though it was really incredible.

    I played this game during a couple of very stressfull years of my life, when it was released. If i completed the main story mode, i dont even remember. But the on-line mode... i was addicted. I know most of the maps by heart to this day.

    The story is compelling, shooting is great and i love the stealth sections. On the shorter side but still so good.

    "Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare" is a masterpiece. This is one of the greatest video games of all time. The first COD entry set in modern times, it was developed by series creator Infinity Ward. When MW was first revealed to the public, I immediately thought of Tom Clancy's "Rainbow Six" titles. Indeed, the game has a very Clancy-esque feel due to a realistic scenario.

The campaign is flawless and the online multiplayer is in the tradition of "Counter Strike". Over ten years old, "Call of Duty 4" is still a fantastic game. I would give it a 9.4 out of 10. Expand

    This game was revolutionary for the genre.

    Surprisingly fun shooting mechanics, and great atmosphere

    The story is very memorable and it has some very iconic missions.

    The multiplayer is very enjoyable, with great maps and guns.

    Overall it's my favorite game in the series, this game has everything a Call of Duty game needs, it's the whole package.

    Final Rating: "Great" ~ 8/10.

    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.

    This game is alright. I finished the campaign and loved it but compared to modern Call of Duty games, it's not that great. I unfortunately missed out of playing multiplayer back when it was popular. One thing I don't like too much was the graphics. It was too grainy for me, I could barley see anything.

    A complete and total revolution in FPS was brought about by this masterpiece and Halo 2. Still to this day probably some of the best co-op and multiplayer shooters ever made!

    The COD 4 multiplayer changed the FPS community forever by adding custom classes, kill-streaks, perks, gun camos, and lots of game modes like Team Deathmatch, Free-for-all, Domination, Sabotage, Headquarters, & Search & Destroy.

    Just because of the Campaign & the innovations in Multiplayer, COD 4 is just a perfect game all around!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I first got this game after my friend was bored of playing it and i first put it in my 360 thinking "lets see how much of a trainwreck this game truly is" and my god was this game phenomenal. The characters i just fell in love with like Soap and Price and Gaz. The story made me feel immersed and the missions were like nothing i've ever seen before in a game. It was revolutionary and nothing will ever compare to this game. The only complaint i have is that i feel as if they wasted our time with Sergeant Paul Jackson. He had no personality whatsoever and he just died just like that it was annoying. If i'm going to play as a character i better be there for the long haul and if not there for the long haul then at least give him some personality. I get the whole nuke thing but Jackson just felt so 2D it was boring. But at least the missions he played in were fun as hell. The only thing i dread about this game is that knowing what i know now is that this started video games love for US vs Russia as the crux of a ton of games to come. I think its overdone but that's just with my current knowledge. I went back and played this recently on veteran and god damn is this still fun. solid 8/10. Expand

    This game was my first time playing Call of Duty and it was so good. Very few Call of Duty games have managed to top this one in quality for campaign or multiplayer. The story here is great albeit a little short. Price & Soap are the best and every mission in the campaign was awesome. The multiplayer is also great, including the maps and weapons available. This game is a must-play.

  1. Simply put, Call of Duty 4 does everything right and nearly nothing wrong. But where it elevates itself above even the best 360 shooters is how all of the good stuff is ludicrously good. The campaign never lets up, while multiplayer is a triple-A affair in itself. [Dec 2007, p.36]
  2. COD4 is cutting-edge entertainment, but the downside to this dense and gripping delivery is that it's over far too quickly: five to six hours on Normal difficulty...COD4 is short but immensely satisfying and we can't wait for a post-modern revival. [Dec 2007, p.73]

    Though the single-player lacks length, the multiplayer should keep you invested in COD4 for the long winter. This is a truly fantastic multiplayer offering that's as deep as any other online game available.
