Call of Duty 3 - Nintendo Wii

SKU: 8030329
UPC: 047875816619
SynopsisWorld War II changed lives, changed countries and changed history. The Normandy Breakout Campaign was the most intense and dangerous action of the entire conflict, as young soldiers from America, Britain, Canada and Poland struggled with the fear and fatal force of the Nazi army. It was a time when the world held its breath as tyranny was confronted. Bravery was tested, tactical expertise meant the difference between life and death, and battle was often up close and personal. Bold heroes were needed as Europe fell under the shadow of death. Step back into that world, if you dare, and see how you would perform in this time of crisis. The Germans are marching toward world domination — will you step up and stop this assault against the free world? Will you answer the Call of Duty? Call of Duty 3 thrusts you into the thrilling landscape of the second World War. This latest addition to the popular Call of Duty franchise features all-new close-quarters combat, environmental physics and a host of ways for you to take down your enemies. Vivid graphics immerse you into a realistic world, where special tactics must be employed against your enemy if you expect to forge a path to victory. Intense, team-based multiplayer options offer multiple-occupancy vehicle combat, so climb aboard a tank or Jeep with your friends and team up to take down the Nazi forces once and for all.

What's great about it: Action, online play, game controls
What's not so great: nothing this game is good
This game is the best game that i have ever played on the Wii console, madden 09 is my second best, this is a major step up from call of duty 3 which the controls sucked and never worked right and it never had multi-player mode like world at war has which to me is way better than playing it on the 360 since you actually have to move with the control when turning and point at the screen when shooting while on the 360 you just push buttons and joysticks.

What's great about it: call of duty
What's not so great: too hard, horrible graphics, everything else
I would recommend you wait until Call of Duty World at War instead of getting this. This was a horrible game for the Wii. The graphics are absolutely terrible, so it's hard to see what's going on. The controls are just too hard to use on this game. Do not get it!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

What's great about it: You actually get to aim, shooter.
What's not so great: Can't skip cut-scenes, controls.
Overall I would have to give this game 3 out of 5. I bought it because it is a "shooter", and being a huge fan of the Socom series on the PS2 for so long, this is the type of game I prefer. I also thought that it would be great to play with the PerfectShot gun. This is the first time (other than arcades) that I've been able to aim a gun in a game since Duck Hunt on the NES. The controls are touchy, especially driving. I have noticed several times that my gun will "lock" in place, and I will have to shake the Wiimote back and forth to get my gun to move. I don't know if this is widespread or not, but it is annoying. The worst part is that you are not able to skip the cut-scenes. After beating the game in 2 days, and then moving up a level in difficulty, I do not want to have to sit and wait through the same cutscenes again. I think your best bet would be to wait for World at War, since it will be made from the beginning for the Wii, instead of adapted for it. I would however recommend it if you plan on buying World at War so that you can get used to the controls.
I would recommend this to a friend!

What's great about it: Okay game, decent graphics, fun shooting
What's not so great: Horrid controls, annoying glitches
This was a good game, but putting it on the Wii wasn't the best idea. It's fun to be able to point at enemies and shoot them now, but the controls are nearly impossible and motion sensing is quite buggy. There are known glitches that will get you killed, and usually you didn't do anything to cause it. It just happens because the makers didn't try to fix it before putting it on the Wii. The game was actually good, but putting it on the Wii was a bad move, especially with this horrid control.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

What's great about it: good graphics, great story line
What's not so great: none
I bought this game because it was the only CoD game for the Wii, but i think its great and I love the story. Driving the jeep and tryin to control the gun gets a bit frustrating but overall its fun and gets addicting. If you like playing campaign and like challenges, id recommend this game. If you're willing to wait, buy CoD: World at War when it comes out :]
I would recommend this to a friend!

What's great about it: Campaign is fun, many additional stuff
What's not so great: None
This is a very attractive game to buy. Knowing that this is the only Call of Duty for the Wii, made it a excellent product. The controls are going to be very tricky at first when first playing, but later on, it gets easier. After all, i recommend this to all.

What's great about it: Only 'Call of Duty' for Wii, cool 'Normandy Breakout' campaign
What's not so great: sub-par graphics, missions started getting to look all the same...
Overall, not that great of a game, though I love the idea of a liberation of Paris campaign, this game fell short of my expectations. A number of the controls were a little picky. Also, I was expecting the campaign to be a bit longer—I had the game, like, maybe a week and I had beat it.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

What's great about it: It is an ok story
What's not so great: To many.
OK well the game first of all has very bad graphics when you shoot germans you might as well be shooting "Gumby" since it is so blury and bad. On the 360 when you shot someone you say them fall and you thought oh that was cool, but in the wii when you shoot them you can't see it since its either blury, extremely dark or your not able to see them period. The game is frusterating with the controlls took for ever to get down and it can gave a lot of head achs since it is so poorly set. just dont buy this game or for that matter any fps for the wii.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

This game is a lot of fun if you learn how to keep your aim steady. It's so hard to keep the aimer facing straight because every time you move your wrist your guy spins around, and stares up into the sky. If your looking for a challenge though this is it, and i love a challenge so if your like me, you should buy this game.
