    One issue. You need two discs to play on xbox 360. So buy an xbox one version.

    COD Ghosts is not the best game of the series. But it has an entertaining single player campaign and pretty good multiplayer maps. Overall rating: 6.7.

    "Ghosts" was Infinity Ward's failed attempt to establish a new series of COD games. It marked the first time in the franchise's history that a cliffhanger went unresolved. The development team went on to make "Infinite Warfare" which was released 3 years later. That game was a mild improvement over this one.

Even "Extinction", the survival-based Aliens mode was never used again. Overall, this is an example of a fun, but uninspired action game. I would give it a 7.5 out of 10. Expand

    This was the first Call of Duty I obsessed over, and I will still defend it to this day even if it's nowhere near as great as the one's before it.

    This game isn't as bad as people say it is. Yes, the campaign is lackluster, and the graphics are plain, but the multiplayer is fun ( most of the time).

    I do not play Coop and Multiplayer in COD so I can only appreciate the story company. In general, when Ghosts came out in 2013, only lazy did not scold her.

But Ghost itself looks like an incomplete product, first of all it feels like different studios did separate missions (and I am almost sure that all the best is the merit of Raven Software). Well, the plot here is nonsense even by COD standards, and the ending is so generally a comedy. And what does it say about missions on military equipment? This is the funniest thing to see, toy tanks and helicopters on the Battlefield background look ridiculous and stupid. And the plot arch rests on the typical construction of the relationship between fathers and children. Thanks for the underwater level, thanks for the mission in space. This is interesting, but everything else looks too childish and outdated. Expand

    Oh man, Call Of Duty: Ghosts was a harsh disappointment when it came out in 2013. While the gameplay mechanics work wonderful, just like in every COD game, nearly everything else lacks innovation. The campaign is way too short, the multiplayer is standard and the graphics just don´t look good for that time. Probably the biggest disappointment in the whole series!

    Call of Duty Ghosts does a lot right and wrong. I completed most of the campaign and it really is standard Call of Duty fare. If you enjoy that you will probably like the campaign. I think it's fine. The biggest positive for me the buttery smooth hit detection. It is really satisfying and the best I have experienced in potentially any shooter.

It is really satisfying and the best I have experienced in potentially any shooter. This does mean you melt, but I personally prefer that style of COD. I also think the killstreaks are good and love the inclusion of perk streaks for those who want to feel like a super soldier and not bother with killstreaks. I also generally like the selection of guns in the game, though sadly some of them are easy to abuse due to certain attachments and maps, which leads me to the biggest issues with the game by far. The map pool is probably the worst I have experienced in any shooter. There are a couple decent maps that I would not mind seeing again in future COD games as bonus maps, but most are awful. They are just huge, meaning you spend forever looking for people and when you do find them it's because they killed you with a ACOG LMG while camping. Camping is a massive issue in this game (far more than any other COD) and the rather dull colors make ACOG even more effective to distinguish targets from environment. My biggest pet peeve is how you can equip a Ghillie suit which makes you even harder to spot, it is a nightmare. You can be unable to see campers right in front of you.
    In summary; Great gunplay, good killstreaks, decent campaign, encourages awful playstyles, mostly bad maps. This all means that you can have amazing games if you end up with the right players, but for the most part you will want to tear your hair out.

    I enjoyed the campaign and I also felt that it was a little too long. There was a moment that I thought it was going to end, but then I had to play another hour to finish it. The multiplayer is pretty mediocre and not that exiting. The maps have tons of detail, but they are way too big for a small match. Once I finished the campaign I never played this game again, which is a bad thing.

    I don't necessarily understand the hate that this game gets. This was the best looking game up to the point when it was released, and it had the best feelings guns. It didn't quite have the magic that the previous games did, but it certainly wasn't bad.

    This is undoubtedly the worst Call of Duty ever made. An average campaign, an average Co-Op, and an awful Multiplayer.

    I generally don't know why this game gets a bad rap. Sure, I can understand it with the campaign, but why is everyone complaining about other things? Now, I get that everyone is entitled to an opinion just like I'm doing. The multiplayer is very fast-paced and action-packed. The extinction mode I've played countless times. Overall, this game is not perfect, but it definitely has it's strengths.

    After coming from Black Ops II, I was rather disappointed with Ghosts. It takes concepts already implemented in the Call of Duty franchise, and recycles them without much improvement. Despite the sharp graphics, the environments and level design were bland as a whole. The multiplayer gameplay is decent, but nothing out of the ordinary.

The campaign wasn't as bad as I thought it would be, in fact there were some captivating moments that kept it fresh. Ultimately though, it was rather predictable and I wasn't very invested in the plot or characters. Call of Duty: Ghosts is not a particularly bad game, but a mediocre one. It has its moments, but it doesn't try anything new or innovate from past titles. Expand

    I bought for u equivalent 5 euro. And i have to admitt that since Modern Warfare nothing change. Sometimes its even worse (graphics), campaign is very poor, i prefer black ops and both MW 1 and 2. Anyway multiplayer is still good and there is a lot of modes, guns. That why i give weak 7.

    This was a fun game. While not the greatest first person shooter, it's not as bad as the reviews lead you to believe. I do see why people didn't like it though. The story wasn't that strong, it was linear, a bit short, and the AI left something to be desired. But that said, I was not really bothered too much by these flaws.

But that said, I was not really bothered too much by these flaws. I had a good time shooting the baddies. There are lots of weapons to use, and play with, and you get to do a variety of things. You can drive a tank, a helicopter, command a dog (really!), go scuba diving, and even visit outerspace.

    Pick this up if you can get it for a fair price.

    P.S. Since I came so late to the party, I played this with all the updates, and bug fixes. So my review is not the same as the people who bought into this early.

    o jogo call of duty ghosts tem algumas qualidades como: boa história e boa jogabilidade. mas foi muito inferior ao black ops 2. o modo alien não chega nem aos pés do modo zombi. não da mais pra jogar quatro jogadores no multiplayer local, coisa que me deixou muito frustrado. tem itens inovador, porém não são interessantes.

    The game isn't as bad as most people say. Yes the guns are very powerful and some of the maps eg Stonehaven were God awful but the DLC is good. If y ou want to get a Call of Duty game wait for BO3 of buy BO2 as they're still a huge amount of people playing the game.

    Call of Duty: Ghosts is not very enjoyable on Xbox 360. The framerate consistently drops, and there are serious connection issues that should have been fixed.

    It's strange for Call of Duty: Ghosts to be released so close to the next-gen console launches, and in a way, it feels like it was rushed to the finish line.

    If a deep and compelling single player experience is what you crave, look elsewhere. If you just want to get online and go up against the world, then join the hordes of ghosslings already invading your online network of choice.
