Call Of Duty World At War

This game is awesome in almost every way. The only drawback is the multiplayer. I hate that only one player gets to move and the other player just aims, shoots and reloads. It has awesome online play and the story is an awesome story of World War II. The visuals are really good for the wii especially when people die. I also like the feature of turning violence/swearing off because if I'm bored and have no one to play with I can play with my little brothers and brag about how good I am. For online play I give this game 9/10. Multiplayer 4/10. Single Player 8/10. Overall 9.5/10.

Nazi Zombies

The game itself is okay. I thought it was going to be worse, Thats why I gave it the score I did. Honesty though, I didn't pay too much attention to the single-player story. What I love most about this game, is Nazi Zombies. There's something so satisfying about killing massive amounts of nazi zombies, Unlocking doors, and buying random weapons. It's really addicting and I would rather do nothing else than just sit and play nazi zombies for an hour. So, If you don't want to buy this game for the single player, certainly get it because of the nazi zombies feature.
