Didn't think i'd like the newer form of COD but i gotta say, credit were credit is due, it was a fantastic game and the Online play is so much fun, i love the extra s like the way i can build my own class and kill x people with each weapons to pass certain mini games. Chucked a Nade at a barrel t'other day, it exploded killed someone and that was one of the mini missions

cod4 rarely leaves the tray... just when XBL is acting funky.

COD4 - Brilliant, perfect shooter.

But I thought the NPD had already said Halo 3 had 8.1 million worldwide sales in 2007?!?!?!? Which "NPD" statement should we believe?

Well I tried out the single player demo and I wasn't very impressed. The graphics were ok and the sounds were decent but I just couldn't get into it.

I guess that my worst annoyance with this game is that I feel like I am on rails. Only one way to go. You can't just take off and explore with out someone yelling at you or telling you to take out a target 1000's of times. The AI is a bunch of idots too. I know that it takes a lot of work to code something like this but you can memorize their repetitive actions within a second of studying them. He ducks, he stands up, he shoots...repeat process.

My PC is a few years old and it can handle most games without a problem, but I had to set my graphic settings down fairly low to get a decent frame rate. Any time the action tried to pick up, it got pretty jumpy and laggy.

Who knows, multiplayer might be a little bit better and more enjoyable...it seems that they should have worked on releasing a multiplayer demo first. Not a good marketing technique if you ask me.

Call of Duty 4 might make a good console game rental but I just think that its a waste of time for PC. I won't be buying this game.

TROLL ALERT! just ignore them and they go away. Try to argue or even worse, personally insult them, and they grow to mammoth proportions.

I think it's MasterGeek again. Did they ban his IP yet?

Looks like ps3 finally got its halo killer. Even if it did sell better on the 360. Lol! seriously great game. This and ut3 are my most played game on the console. Love em both for different reasons.

Alot of people still play Halo. 2 & 3 to be exact. I think COD4 just knocked Halo off the top spot. Halo had the top spot on XBL for quite some time but now it's owning XBL and PSN network. They deserve some props.
