Summary
Game Description
Call of Duty: World at War is a first-person shooter and the latest installment in the Call of Duty video game series for the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, Wii, PlayStation 2, DS, and PC. Moving back from the modern setting of CoD4, World at War is set in the Pacific theater and Eastern front of World War II. The violence is off the charts: this is a vision of World War II you've never seen before! Gone are gritty gray colors and sanitized violence. In its place are vibrant hues, gushing gore, and intense language. World at War will also expand upon Call of Duty 4's award-winning online multiplayer with new modes, drivable vehicles, and a host of lethal WWII-era weapons (including a flamethrower, the Tommy gun, and the world's first true assault rifle).

This game is just plain fun. The only thing that makes this game bad is the people you play against.

u just got pwnd nazi's
If anybody had any douts about call of duty revisiting the ww11 scenario then i can happily say that you can put your worries to rest because cod waw is my favorite call of duty in the series. GAMEPLAY: The gameplay in cod waw is amazing. The sound effects spanning from gunfire to explosions to trees falling and fire crakling is all eerily realistic. As you span from Russian cities like Stalingrad all the way to the pacific theater the gameplay just doesn't give up. The intensity in world at war is simply amazing and may give you some real adrenaline while playing through the game's mission's and online modes. Nazi's will take cover behind anything that look's like it could block bullets. But somtimes that could turn against you. In previous call of duty's a hay bail or a wooden crate looked like perfect cover. But world at war pay's such close attention to detail that bullets will easily pierce the flimsy hay in a hay bail or will with only a few bullets travel through drywall and wood and such. The Japanese are also a new welcome addition to the call of duty series. The Japs will use guerilla tactics to take you and your squad down. They will play dead, hide in trees,charge at you with beyonets and even hide in tall grass waiting for you to make a mistake that will lead to your demise. Also some of the protagonist's will even drop F-boms now that the tone has been directed to a more gritty and realistic setting. GRAPHICS: The graphics in cod waw are amazing. The atmosphere feels gritty and unclean. Everything from the way the characters move to the way the gun's flash is all amazingly realistic, this is a true world war two simulator. As you are playing through the game the blood splatters and gut's somhow remind me of the movie "saving private ryan" watch the movie and then play world at war and you will see a resemblance. Although some core fans may be let down the gameplay excperience remains amazing and fun. So if your a world war two freak like me or if your a fan of call of duty's world war two set games than you will want to check this one out.
