    Great graphics. Fun gameplay, for the most part. But it's dragged down by things like supply drops and is very easy to get bored with.

    They put Modern Warfare in a blender, shat out this game, and called it "remastered." NO IT ISN'T! The issue is I'd expect them to make Modern Warfare better. It's just Modern Warfare HD Edition. I loved the Modern Warfare franchise. Was it as bad as a 5 is? No! But guess what? 100 **** dollars for this and Infinite Warfare is **** I wanted to try this, and see if IW is good.

    Think of the old Modern Warfare that we all loved with semi better graphics, modern micro transactions i.e supply drops, and that oh so cancerous 1 burst M16. Its all in the game and ready for you to play.

    Modern Warfare remasteredd is a remastered version of 2007s Call of Duty 4
    This now 10 year old game has been polished and looks and feels like it fits in with modern games today.
    This game features of course a multiplayer mode that is easily the most fun mode of this game, featuring your standard call of duty competitive modes as well as a mode I haven’t seen in a call of duty game before prop hunt where you switch sides being a prop and hiding and being the team searching for the props
    though this online multiplayer does add in a loot box system for the modern day to unlock items such as skins
    I didn’t find maps to be anything special, but as of right now this is the purest form of simple gunplay offered from a call of duty on current gen consoles, so if that’s what youre searching for you wont be disappointed as shooting is just as smooth and fun as its always been
    Speaking of not special though, I havnt played every call of duty game to date, but out of the 6 I have played.. this 6 hours campaign is easily the dullest ive played through…
    its generic and uneventful throughout..
    you play through the perspective of 6 different characters, though if I didn’t tell you this you would have no clue, as every character and mission feels and looks nearly identical throughout
    This campaign takes place in the middle east and Russia as youre dealing with both a civil war as well as taking out targets responsible for the execution of a middle eastern president..
    The level design here is boring
    I didn’t play the original call of duty 4 but I had so much dejavu playing this game like ive played it 1 million times before
    that’s how uninspired this games design is
    everything was so predictable, no cool set pieces or cool moments like call of duty is known for today..
    just your typical linear
    go forward and shoot things, and search houses that you know your target isn’t in but do it any way just cause… until you get to the end and climb in a helicopter
    ive never been so bored playing through a first person shooter campaign in my life…
    theres just nothing special here….
    its mediocre
    For its time Call of Duty 4 may have been a great and innovative game…
    But today Modern Warfare Remastered is a collection of a mediocre shooter campaign and an okay competitive mode…
    youre better off just waiting down the line for call of duty world war 2 for whats sure to be a much more complete package
    I give Call of Duty Modern Warfare Remastered

    So the Graphics have been given a major improvement and micro transactions have been added for no other reason than give us money. How is it possible that hit detection is worse in this game than the original? Not to mention you have to buy another money grab of a Call of Duty game just to be able to play this.

    Call of Duty Modern Warfare Remastered is done pretty well. I think the updated graphics are done decently and the campaign is fun. The main problem I have with it is the multiplayer. It was buggy and there would be many people calling scoresteaks at the same time. Then again, it was fun but it got repetitive quickly. Overall, i would give it a 7.3.

    A very mixed bag of fun and disappointment.

    This game has one of the best single player campaigns, hand down. Activision delivered on their promise to make a redeeming realistic Call of Duty which questions the morality of war. Graphics are beautiful, and the way that this CoD was made should make its successful ancestors proud. However, multiplayer is the exact opposite.

    However, multiplayer is the exact opposite. This game has no idea what it is doing when it comes to design. Maps are more "realistic" which does not work for player vs player games. Players want maps that are fun, interesting, and balanced more than they want a copy and paste map from the campaign that promotes bad spawns and exploitable lines of sight. That being said, these maps are by far the worst that Call of Duty has ever seen. Spawns are also downright terrible, as the majority of player deaths will be a result in having a bad respawn on smaller maps. Kill time is reduced to limit player skill, to help casual players not feel like they're terrible while playing against better players. However, skill based matchmaking is in casual playlists in this game, resulting in exploits in the meta (the best strategies and playstyle that most players use). This dumbs down the game and forces everyone to play the same. A complete embarrassment to Call of Duty, this game favors players who hide in corners more than it favors the skill. As such, this, in my opinion, is the worst Call of Duty ever created in terms of its multiplayer.    … Expand

    It is a pretty decent game, but I wish it was a remaster of the trilogy of Modern Warfare games instead of the first one. This game was still pretty fun, the story was way better than the new garbage that COD is putting out lately. Bad games like Infinite Warfare, Black Ops III etc. Still would put it as one of my favorite COD games, despite it's microtransactions.

    Good short single player game. I've played the multiplayer back in the days on PC.

    Too bad they didn't add dynamic resolution scaling else this one would render 4k on series X.

    Even after ten years the campaign is as engrossing as ever while the multiplayer focuses on classic gun battles on huge maps. Unfortunately this is not yet available as a stand-alone.

    Infinity Ward's seminal Call of Duty gets the revamp it deserves; Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered gives the 2007 shooter a new lease of life, enabling newcomers to see what all the fuss was about and veterans the chance to relive a classic. The best Call of Duty game just got even better.

    The campaign is still just as epic as before. The multiplayer is tremendous and offers a whole different challenge to its sibling, Infinite Warfare, with a much different way of approaching the game and your tactics inside it. And it looks terrific, especially if you look at it nine years ago first.
