Call of Duty: World at War

Call of Duty: World at War - Xbox 360

Pros Cons
Amazing visuals Not enough content
Intense action  
Addictive gameplay  
Fantastic multiplayer  
Return to WWII in

In my opinion, Call of Duty 4 is one of the greatest online multi player games of all time. I was quite concerned when I learned that Treyarch would be handling the development of 5. This coupled with the fact that they made the choice to return to WWII left me with serious concerns about the quality of this game.

I can easily say that all of my concerns were unfounded. Much to my surprise the return to WWII really works (theres a reason there are dozens of WWII shooters). Although we get warped to the past again, the action maintains it's fast and furious pace. The campaign while VERY short, is every bit as intense and exciting as Modern Warfare's and IMHO is actually more fun.

World at War doesn't reinvent the Call of Duty formula by any means, but builds on the success of it's predecessors. If you were a fan of Modern Warfare's multi player, then you will find a familiar niche in World at War. It is debatable whether or not you prefer WWII weapons or modern ones, but the game play is identical to 4 except for the inclusion of tanks on select stages.

Overall, I would say that unless you have an extreme aversion to WWII shooters you should definitely check this one out. Call of Duty World at War definitely lives up to it's namesake, and adds to the legacy of the Call of Duty series.
