    This game is undeniably better than probably all CODs since MW2. Volla...! :)
    Graphics + Campaign (better and longer) + Multiplayer gameplay + Exosuits = 10/10

    Excellent campaign with the appropriate dramatic gravitas. Addictive multiplayer that brings the adrenaline rush feeling missing from so many other shooters.

    Absolutely love the new EXO SUiTS!!!!! I've been having a blast boosting around the playground!
    I bought the ATLAS PRO copy of the game. Sledgehammer did an excellent job.
    It's Call of Duty the way it should be. The weapons are smooth and finally the sniper riffles are a lot easier to use. I seriously buy games to have fun not experience real-to-life mechanics of weapons.

    Campaign mode offers crisp graphical experience. You're basically a mercenary contractor.

    Survival mode pits you against waves of combatants in round based combat. You have 2 machines to upgrade skills between levels.

    If you get the ATLAS PRO EDITION, you receive some neat items to show off with. The real value is the Season Pass!

    Meteoritic needs to identify junior reviewer by some sort of designator. Maybe a number beside their names of how many games they've reviewed. I normally click on peoples aliases and investigate their reviews. Most the negatives are from first time reviewers.

It's like playing some live action $200 million summer action blockbuster. The graphics are the best I think I have seen on any of the games I have for the Xbox One, even better than Ryse: Son of Rome. The voice acting is phenomenal, with Kevin Spacey doing a great job along with the other actors. The new facial animations and performance capture are so life like it looks like a movie during many of the cut scenes. The action is intense and fun and addictive. The sound effects are hugely improved over past games with the guns and impacts and explosions sounding like you've been dropped into the middle of a live war zone. The weapons and technologies on display are jaw dropping. It's just a phenomenal game and experience. I was really disappointed with Ghosts, and actually would even go as far as saying I pretty much hated that game because it was so formulaic and uninteresting and looked like an Xbox 360 game graphically rather than next gen. Advanced Warfare is a huge return to form for the series and is thrilling and amazing and next gen in every way. What a turn around. Can't recommend it highly enough. Expand

    Let me start by saying this a review of the multiplayer only.

    I loved the campaign despite its flaws but that is not what I want to talk about.

    Secondly let me be honest, I love Cod a lot ! So I guess I am Biased, however, I hated ghosts and I was getting bored with the fact that they did nothing new, well let me say I as a long term fan I am very satisfied.

    I really am fed up of the titan fall comparisons though (btw I liked that game too as I gave it 9 out of 10) Just because they both include the ability to double jump it doesn’t mean that they are at all similar. The amount of options in AW is massive, you can really fine tune your classes and strategies down to a ridiculous degree and there are tons of combinations of gear and perks that allow you to cater to your own play style.

    I have to Say I love the movement mechanics, the double jump is snappy and easy to use and the boosting is a gift from the gods in terms of twitch reaction shooting. I love to play aggressively with an SMG and the new movement mechanics really allow you to take an aggressive close quarters style of play to the next level.

    Then there is the map design which is fantastic! The new verticality is integrated expertly in to the existing cod style of map design and adds a whole new dimension to proceedings whilst maintaining everything about classic cod map design that has worked for years. Also the verticality finally makes the distinction between assault rifles and Smgs feel far more pronounced. Gone are the days of players fighting over the only few spots on a map that provide good sightlines because there are now so many places for you to take advantage of the increased range of the assault rifles.

    My point is that playing with an Smg feels completely different to playing with an assault rifle and the maps are able to incorporate different areas that cater to different weapons and play styles very effectively. Of course if you hate Cod this isn’t going to change your mind but if you loved cod but felt it was getting a bit stale this will reinvigorate the game for you. The best thing that can be said about it is that it incorporates everything that players love about the game whilst adding in a ton of extra features and tactical options due to great movement mechanics and excellent map design.

    It doesn’t feel like any other game except cod. It still plays like cod. It still feels like cod, but, it has enough fresh elements to make it an extremely rewarding experience for the returning cod player.

    I cant say it enough I **** love this game!!!! Titanfall was fun but lacked the depth to really keep me returning, AW adds new elements but retains the silky smooth fast paced cod style.

    I guarantee I will still be playing this six months from now unlocking camos and challenges and still finding new combinations of weapons and equipment and different tactics to exploit.

I honestly can say I haven't played a Cod game since Black Ops since the franchise really started to wear on me. Now that I am playing this game after so many years I can finally say that I feel refreshed and the series is coming back alive like it did back with COD 4. The movements are way more fluid than "Titanfall" (everyone compares this game to Titanfall lol) because they didn't throw in the wall running and extra wall hanging. When a game has too many movements and actions, it gets really tiresome to play and Advanced Warfare nailed it on the head with how seamless the game runs. Guns are great as well as the sounds they produce. In a game that I recently thought was over doing itself in its create a class section has finally figured out perfect harmony from customization to weapons and perks. Go get this game if you ever enjoyed the pre Black Ops days !! Expand

So, with regard to the multi-player, this is great and a real positive change to anything in recent COD's. For a start the games runs smoothly and I have not experienced any lag or glitches. I haven't got through all the weapons yet, but so far the look and feel is good and shooting has quite a raw and realistic feel (compared to some other COD games). I wasn't sure before about the idea of all that jumping around, especially as I have already played a lot of Titanfall and was concerned it would be a bit 'samey'. That being said it works really well and adds a different dimension to the maps and how the game pays. Importantly, it seems to encourage movement and the only campers I came across were those I shot from above or landed behind :-)

    So all in all a great game, which I will now buy my own copy of! Not sure if quite a 10, but given it full points to counter some of the trolls who seem to be scoring it a zero for no reason other than they are anti the COD franchise.

Although hardly repeat the revolution seen in Modern Warfare trilogy, the game has fresh elements in sufficient quantity to give new life to a franchise that many considered decadent after weak Ghosts.

    The use of a less realistic scenario allowed the Sledgehammer create a more fun and varied game, which is much closer to an adventure film with elements of science fiction than a new attempt to recreate "Black Hawk Down". With this, the game can not only explore elements fleeing from reality, as constructs a plot that runs off a bit of some clichés seen in the past.

    Perhaps the greatest Advanced Warfare problem is the fact that it is a sequence of a franchise known for its very characteristic formula. Thus, it is hard not to feel that in some instances the studio had to restrict your creativity, since it was not possible to leave out certain elements already known by fans.

    However, these little slips do not interfere at all the great work done by Sledgehammer. The title can be considered the true starting point of the series in the new generation of consoles and erase the bitter taste left by his predecessor. Featuring a good mix of familiar elements and new, the title proves that it will take a long time before Call of Duty is no longer a relevant name for the industry.

    So, I've always bought the COD games and I've never been a big fan of the series, just the same old recycled game over and over. I have to say, Advance warfafe is hands down the best COD game ever made.
    The graphics are stellar, the campaign mode is engaging and fun and its an all round good time. Kevin Spacey is amazing, and its the first COD game that had a good story that made sense

    This game is THE BEST CALL OF DUTY ever. The campaign is blood pulsing and very interesting. As well, the multiplayer is the best yet. If you are starting your kid on call of duty, then this is the game. You can turn lbood and language off.

    I always buyt Call of Duty Titles for the campaigns . I will surely say that this game delivered the most enjoyable and memorable campaign to date . Where as I enjoyed every campaign so far , this is the one than shines most . Sledgehammer games were very innovative with the Exo Skeletons and all the futuristic equipment and weaponry . I still play this game a lot

    La campaña es corta pero muy entretenida, el nivel grafico del juego es muy bueno, la música y los efectos de sonido durante la campaña y el multiplayer es excelente!!!

    La acción de batalla en el multiplayer es impresionante y el traje EXO le da una velocidad al juego que marca diferencia respecto a los otros COD.

    Es un excelente juego!!!

    I didn't exactly have high hopes for Advanced Warfare, but this is actually a REALLY cool game. It's super fun to mess around with the boosting mechanics, and there's all kinds of weapon attatchments, weapons, and all of that.

    Black Ops 3 vs Advanced Warfare

    Well first I personally like Advanced Warfare but this has to be comparing both seeing which one is better than the other. Both games are a military science fiction first-person shooter and both have similar game mechanics.Also in both games they have exo-suits which enhance your character's abilities and movements. Such as walking on walls, punching someone into the air, sliding across the battlefield, super stomp, and super jump. Some differences they have are the weapons.

    One thing I don’t like about Black Ops 3 is they do not have a lazer shotgun and rifle but Advanced Warfare does. Also Black Ops 3 you can change your character but you can’t in Advanced Warfare. In Advanced Warfare you can customize your character with different equipment. Some things I would want to see in the next game in the series is both Advanced Warfare and Black Ops 3 combined. Also with the multiplayer I would have to say that they are similar but a few differences such as you can choose your player model in BO3 and in AW you can customize and choose your player-model.

    Also in multiplayer you have to kill the other team before they kill you. There are many different game modes in these games. There is Team Deathmatch, Capture the Flag, Search and Destroy and Mosh Pit. These game modes also can be played in hardcore mode which you do not know how much ammo you have and no mini map.

    In Capture the flag you have to go on the enemy's territory and bring their flag to your base. In team deathmatch you have to get to 75 kills before the enemy team. Also you kill the enemy team and one enemy equals one kill. In Search and Destroy you play as the diffuser or planting the bomb. There are two different bomb locations.As diffuser if a bomb is planted you have to go diffuse it and you win or you could kill the bomber before he plants. In mosh pit is is a mixture of all of these.

    So Black Ops 3 and Advanced Warfare are good games that still keep the COD franchise moving. Even Though ADV is an older game that BO3 had to follow they are still keeping gamers interested in the Call of Duty series.

    I buy COD every year for my kids. I'm 37 years old now. I personally play most games on PC in a competitive clan.

I do enjoy the SP campaigns though and getting achievements. I bought an XBOX One pretty much just for this COD: AW. I wanted to see if there was physics/controls/graphics improvements that would allow me to get back into paying MP on a console. After my first 4 hours of MP I think we have a winner. But here's how I play:

    1) Only Hardcore
    2) Only Objective/team based play
    3) Usually with all players muted
    4) I play to win, not for KD

    I play my way, and that involves attacking and defending objectives. Being as tactical as possible to help my team, knowing that I'll still get shot in the back regularly, and killed by those who are faster/twitchier than I.

    And you know what, I'm having a blast doing it. It has met or exceeded my expectations. I wish the maps were bigger and had less choke points - but otherwise I am very happy. The controller feels great too. Better than PS4 or 360, but still pales in comparison to a keyboard and mouse.

A lot of us have been looking forward to a new COD that's a lot like COD4 and WAW etc., including myself. Wasn't really looking forward to another futuristic shooter to be honest.

    To start things off, once you get this bad boy installed, you will get a personal thank you from Sledgehammer Games. The campaign is awesome and the multiplayer is a down right blast! Multiplayer will seem crazy, different and very hectic at first, but you'll get used to it quickly. Once one gets used to the exo abilities, wild map designs and the verticality of the game, you won't want to put the controller down. Even though the game is set in the future, the COD feel is for sure still there and it's not too futuristic either. Paintball mode makes it easy to track your shots and is definitely a very cool option to the game. There are some really fun new game modes like Uplink, which is pretty much like capture the flag, but instead of a flag, you carry and can even pass a small spherical satellite that needs to be brought to the upload site in order to gain team scores. There's also classic mode which takes away the exo abilities for that old school type gameplay if it's desired. Excellent balance of weapon types, perks and score steaks. At first it may be tough obtaining the score streak rewards, but they come easier as you start to master your classes and play style.

    I have enjoyed the COD's of the past, especially COD4 and WAW. Black Ops and yes even Ghosts were fun too, but this may now be the "King of The Hill" by a long shot. Even though I enjoyed the past COD's, it's been a long time since I've had that "itch" to play and play again. If you liked COD in the past and are looking for a fresh twist of things, this is your game. Once again, the game will take some getting used to and sometimes it's hard to accept change, but just strap in and hold on tight because you have a wild ride in store for yourself.

    Thank you Sledgehammer Games for bringing us this masterpiece and revitalizing the COD franchise. You hit it out of the park and I'm so glad to have the desire to play COD again. I sure hope Treyarch is working extremely hard on next years COD because they've got their work cut out for them now. As much as I would like to see a new COD4, it's going to be very hard to go back to a "slower" type of gameplay now!

I've been playing since the first Call of Duty ever created, and my least favorite game is not COD: Ghost(not the best but not the most awful either) but COD: Mw3 was a downside, anyway to this game:

    WHen I saw the trailer and saw who made it(Sledgehammer Games) I thought for a second, oh no. Another Mw3?
    But I kept a open mind to it. I pre-orded the Day Zero. I played it a bit and WOW I must say, maybe it's the best COD since World at War(my favorite COD). I am not a fanboy, I am normally critically(check out my ratings, on other games and movies)

    The Mulitplayer: Okay, listen, this one IS different than the other games. Same HUD and Loadout from Black Ops 2, but that's it. The EXO-Skeleton makes it run so smooth. I have always been a run and shoot guy(Giant Serious Sam fan, even my emblem is Serious Sam LOGO), and this Game will give us a chance with that. The Quickscope is reduced, so it is harder(I love it) the map are from Small to Large, so it's always fresh. Maps have the dynamic touch from Ghost, some of them changes. Litteraly. There is this one map I can't recall the name on, you are there capturing the flags, suddenly a voice is speaking, "we need to open the doors, a deadly gas is inbound". suddenly the flags disapeaer and a new area of the map will open and with NEW possiblities, it's a fresh idea for COD, and it's the right way, at the beginning I thought. COD AW would kill the franchise, but it have only saved it.
    Make your own character. get different weapons with more damage or less. It's NEW for COD, I know other games already have added it for their games years ago. But we are focusing on COD and not Borderlands and Battlefield, it's a positive way for COD and it's the right.

    I have completed Single Player, and Oh Boy it's one of the better Campaigns in the COD Franchises.

    I would highly recommend COD: AW for anyone who is missing a good and FUN MP.
    (The survival OPs is like the one from MW3) nothing new has changed.

    But I am only reviewing short about MP, because that's the only thing peope will be focusing and playing.
    (I am not a douche, but it is sadly true)

    (Sledgehammer games said from the beginning, they made COD AW, to make it a fun MP and not "taken that much seriously" as the previously games in Franchise, and it sure delivered that. There is less raging in this game, because you CAN have good time.. and make nice and fun kills.

    Buy it! if you need some games lately.

    Advanced warfare however, seems like a breath of fresh air. The whole Exo abilities online adds a whole new dimension to the game, you don't just worry about people coming around corners. You have to worry about whats coming from above. The exo abilities makes online fast paced and so far from my experiences, has really cut out a lot of camping because it is near enough impossible.
    If you prefer the old style online without exo abilities, there are classic playlists just for you.

    I've only played a few missions of the campaign, but I have already been blown away by the quality of it. The amount of detail in game and in cut scenes really pulls you into the story. Its not a campaign where you play a few missions and think meh I'm going to go play online instead. It's a campaign that actually makes you want to play it.

The presentation and attention to detail is absolutely outstanding. So much customization and pretty maps and cool campaign moments that seem drawn from a Michael Bay or Fast and the Furious movie. It's really amazing value for $70.

    My only real complaint is that the multiplayer gameplay is very repetitive. It's basically just a twitch shooter where you hope you can react faster than your opponent because whoever shoots first typically gets the kill. It doesn't have the variety that say Halo does with vehicles and different power weapons and actually using map control and strategy to win. It's mostly just run around like a chicken with your head cut off or stay back and camp and pick said headless chickens off as they bunny hop around in the open. Definitely fun but pretty one-dimensional gameplay. It is also incredibly frustrating when people continually manage to sneak up behind you and drop you in half a second before you can even turn around. Kinda cheap. I wish they had proper radar like there is in Halo! That said however, it is still a very fun, high-quality game and a refreshing change of pace for a new player to the series.

Although many things in Advanced Warfare are different from previous Call of Duties, I can assure you that Advanced Warfare is the next step in FPS gaming. From super fast paced versatile gameplay to having INSANE customization options that have never been seen before in any FPS game, Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare left a unerasable mark on the next gen consoles. With a new super-technological storyline that fits in the future, to a recreation of the world's best side game: CoD Zombies, Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare is the game that reassures good hopes to the fans of Call Of Duty.
    Of course there is a lot of controversy that the game brings up in terms of differences with the rest of the franchise, but this is just a way of saying to the fans that Call of Duty is NOT the same game every year, and can step up its game and produce efficiently.

    Great maps. Great fluid movements, miles better than black ops 3. Campaign wasn't amazing but definitely holds up. The guns feel really good, accurate statistics. This is the multiplayer I stick to amongst all the releases in the past year.

I found the map design to be superior in striking a balance between offering some camping spots but not too many, but not so run-and-gun-centric like typical 3 lane maps that don't allow much besides running down a lane or waiting for someone to run down the lane. The variety of weapons is vast, and I have earned a large % of the variants without spending any money besides the base game and the season pass for new maps. I'm still having fun. I'm still learning different weapons. I bought Black Ops 3 when it was released, and I ended up logging very little time on it as I find AW much more appealing. Expand

    Up until the release of Modern Warfare in 2019, this was my all-time favorite Call of Duty. Some people could say that this game had a predictable story, and while it did, it did not hurt it in the long run. Personally, I was caught off guard by the plot twist.

Being given an exo suit with incredible power and punching all sorts of enemies was satisfying all the time. While the missions were a little restrictive, they never got boring. The only gimmick I hated was the mag-gloves. These pieces of trash forced you to go straight up, down, left, or right; you can't go diagonal which makes it so annoying. The other tech you are given is so much fun and mixes up the gameplay. The advanced movement, lethal and tactical gear is incredible. The survival mode was hard, but an excellent mode and new spin to survival from Modern Warfare 3. The objectives you are given are fun, and so are the upgrades you can get. Zombies at first I was very critical of, but now I think it was just not what I was used to, but it was a good thing none the less and had some good twists to the gameplay. The one thing I HATE about it though is the EMP zombies because at one point, the ability to jump really high is NEEDED and the moment you can't do that, it's more about running for your life until you regain power than it is about the carnage. The multiplayer is probably the worst part of the game and has been the only time that I feel like I'm suffering when playing. The boosted jump makes shooting idiots near impossible. Some tactical items are now nearly pointless because of the boosted jump. Guns needed to be more powerful because of the boosted jump. This was just a poor case for multiplayer. Expand

The learning curve may be a little steep for casual gamers which is probably not a great thing. The allure of cod has always been its ease of access for all level of players. The quick scope crowd may not be happy with this game either. The movement of the game doesn't lend itself to the quick scope sniper. Gun balance is ok so far but hard to judge any of that before a few patches. If you are a fan of cod, you will assist and have fun. If you have never played cod, then I'd say pick it up for the campaign and give the multiplayer a try. Over all not a bad game. Expand

The people look so lifelike. The attention to detail such as their eyes/face/expressions are amazing. The motion capture and realistic character models really bring the camaraderie aspect of the game to life. On the other side, the action is done very well, with lots of things going on the screen at once. Gameplay wise, its a refinement of the series, but if you aren't a fan of the Call of Duty series, this installment won't change your mind as its core mechanics are the same. I'd say give it a shot though, if you like the sci fi theme. Expand

The PS4/XBOX ONE version of AW is a visual stunner that runs at the usual 60 FPS. It's the futuristic gadgets and Kevin Spacey that make this COD stand out. The story is Tom Clancy-lite with Spacey's villain taking center stage. He plays Jonathan Irons, an evil C.E.O. who provides private military contractors with advanced warfare technology. In the end, Irons is just another Bond-like bad guy who wants to profit from world war, but Spacey brings class to the role. The thrilling gadgets featured in the campaign include the sticky gloves that Tom Cruise used in "Mission Impossible", thermal vision grenades, exo-skeletons, mechs and mobile heat-seeking missile launchers. It's all very cool, yet familiar thanks to the obligatory scripted events. The exo-skeletons are used in multiplayer which gives it a faster-pace and the new modes are enjoyable. However, the new cooperative survival mode is not as good as the one featured in "Modern Warfare 3". It supports four players and maps can be unlocked by replaying levels, but it quickly becomes tiring due to boring mini-challenges and limited enemy types. I bought the first DLC pack and the new zombies map is a very basic one; a throwback to the zombies found in the original "Black Ops". Overall, the game is solid one, but not a very groundbreaking one. This isn't the masterpiece of "Modern Warfare" nor is it the vanilla "Ghosts". It's good, but the peak of the series has already past. 8.4 out of 10. Expand

    I'm going to be fair and give it an 8. Its insanely fun on Xbox One. Also I haven't bought a CoD game at launch since MW2 and the newest one I've played is Black Ops, so its been a while. It feels fresh because I dont' buy the game every year. I haven't finished the campaign, but to me, its just a weapons and controls demo to get you used to things before jumping into multiplayer.

It feels fresh because I dont' buy the game every year. I haven't finished the campaign, but to me, its just a weapons and controls demo to get you used to things before jumping into multiplayer. Its too restrictive and linear. You have to stay on the path. For some reason, the HUD on your gun that tells you how much ammo you have isn't in multiplayer, which is wierd because its pretty cool, especially since I'm a Halo fan.

    For multiplayer, I have to say its the second most fun Call of Duty game ever made. You can jump really high and the maps are designed around that. The level design is colorful, modern and excellent. I see some instant classics already. They're all small maps, which is what CoD is good at - arena style infantry combat. The perks are good and balanced. The weapons are also balanced, however, there aren't nearly as many to choose from like previous games. This is the first CoD game that has no noob tube problem. I have not once been hit with a grenade launcher. Sniping is quickscope only - bummer. Also the hit markers are too friendly. In Battlefield you actually have to hit the guy to kill him. It seems in this game as long as the gun is pointed in their general direction, its good enough. The game modes are mostly there. I miss demolition, but Search and Rescue is where I'm always at. Unlike Search and Destroy, you get a second chance if a teammate claims your dog tag before they do. The real reason I bought this game is because I bought BF4 recently and since the game has been out a year, everyone has leveled up and I'm going up against them. I'm good at Battlefield, but I never stood a chance. So I bought the new Call of Duty game and love it. Its fun, addicting and I can't stop playing it. Nothing will beat MW2's multiplayer in my opinion. It took CoD 4 and built so much on top of it. So many guns, maps, perks, killstreaks, and combos. Advanced Warfare might be better. Only time will tell. So far there's less BS such as one man army noob tubers and people boosting for nukes (I did that. It was more fun than playing because you had to find a secret spot on the map). As far as the maps go, there's not much secret spots. High Rise was really good about this, but with the way you can move, the maps work very well with your new abilities. However we need more vertical maps. This game's gameplay demands it.
    Advanced Warfare has the level design mix between Halo and Star Wars Battlefront in terms of design, Titanfall's maneuvering/ jumping abilities, Halo's duel wielding and armor abilities, and of course the Call of Duty gameplay. To me it feels like Black Ops. They even have the emblem maker. SMGs and carbines rule the maps. LMGs will get you killed. This is the most fast-paced shooter ever. Its CoD on adderall. Is it worth the money? Yes. I haven't had this much fun since MW2. Sorry if this review sounds wierd. Its 2 in the morning and I'm just rambling. To me this is a fair review. Its not original in any way. In fact they stole a lot of stuff and ideas from other games, but its FUN! and thats what matters the most.

    Modern Warfare 2 was the last awesome Call of Duty game. That was 5 years ago. All the other games after that have been garbage.

Call of Duty was being taken in a whole new direction for the better. What does the fate of CoD look like now? Pretty damn positive, actually. And I'm a guy that's not even a fan of CoD. Let's start with the campaign, which pretty much means we're starting with the negative. Even with the new things brought to the table, such as the new innovative story with Kevin Spacey playing a role (HELLS YEAAAAHHH!!!) and new Exo abilities, the campaign trips and falls on its face. I found the story to be generic and nearly identical to other CoD storylines. The gameplay is probably the best of the CoD campaigns, but that isn't saying much. Even with Kevin Spacey playing a role, the campaign just doesn't hold up. These days, I don't even know WHY I play CoD campaigns anymore. The co-op mode is quite dull, too. Look, CoD developers: if you're not going to put in a Zombies mode, don't put in co-op at all (yes, I know they're putting in a Zombies DLC mode, and yes, I definitely want to play it, BUT IT PISSES ME OFF THAT IT'S DLC). Now, though, we get to the reason to really play this game: the multiplayer. Advanced Warfare's multiplayer is the best since MW2. With the new Exo suit abilities, the multiplayer gains a new verticality, similar to Titanfall. You can double jump to high places, and dash left or right or forward or backward to dodge your enemies. I loved these abilities, and it feels more fast-paced than ever in CoD. The gun selection is pretty good, but the perks are same-old, same-old. The game is actually a lot more addictive than past games because you always know there's something to unlock around the corner. The customizing of your own multiplayer character was presented in Ghosts, and it was pretty lame. Here, however, it's sick. For the most part, this game is fairly balanced, though CoD still has the tendency to piss me off. Advanced Warfare is a light in the tunnel for this fading franchise. Expand
