This movie is a must, and if you go out to buy it then pay the extra couple of bucks and get it on blue ray. It will be worth it. A ton of action. Some might think its kind of long, I believe around 2.5 hours. I loved it and thought it ended and started perfect.

This game alone was the reason why I bought a PS3. Socom 3 and Socom 4 were just okay.. Socom 2 was the best until this game came out. I'm not a fan of using a supressor (silencer) for my weapon, but on this game I would say it's a must unless you want to get into a huge fire fight. (that's why I don't use one) I like the big load fire fights on my 47 inch TV with surround sound. If you buy this game you honestly need a good surround sound and HD tv. Also you don't know where some of the enemies are until it's to late. This game keeps you on your toes. A must have for the PS3.
What's great about it: very challenging, cross roads online (same map from Socom 2)

For being a WWII era game, I would say this is BY FAR the best out there right now. I am in the U.S. Military and have deployed a couple of times already doing convoys in Afghanistan and Iraq so I know that you need to WORK AS A TEAM to reach your objective. When I play video games I only play them on the hardest difficulty possible. In this game you really do need to be able to use your team in the right spots and right ways to reach your objective with as little injuries as possibe to your squad. This game is very realistic and makes you think as a squad leader would in real life. I actually havn't even played online, Single player is just as addicting and online it always seems like ppl don't listen to orders.
Continents erupt in flames and hails of gunfire as war breaks out on an unprecedented scale. This is World War II, where a massive conflict rages on two fronts: Europe and the South Pacific. Answer your nation's call and travel to distant lands where you'll take part in devastating battles that gripped a generation and laid the foundation for the world as we know it today. Do you have the courage, the cunning and the commitment to fulfill your duties and see the war through to its harrowing end?Prepare for global conflict presented in all its terrible grit and immediacy. In Call of Duty: World at War, you assume the role of a U.S. Marine or a Russian soldier in the waning days of the Second World War. Travel to the far reaches of the conflict, from war-plagued Berlin to the dense jungles of the Pacific theater, as you confront enemies who refuse to contemplate surrender or retreat and who fight all the more desperately ~ and more dangerously ~ knowing the end is near. Employ the weapons at your disposal, including a flamethrower and other new infantry and vehicle-based weapons, and fight to complete your mission as battles explode around you with all the terrible chaos of real war.

I dont know about everyone else, but Im a little tired of WWII games. I like to be able to use weapons I either own in real life or use when I deploy. If thats the case for you as well the COD 4 is the better choice. This is still a great game. I think COD5 makers kind of rushed the making of this game. Don't get me wrong I love WWII games, but COD5 can not compare to Brothers in arms (all 3 games, 2 for PS2 and 1 for PS3) If you like WWII games I sugest Brothers in Arms before this one. I still give it an extremly high rating because it's a great game.
What's great about it: for the most part everything

This game is a better upgrade of Vegas 1. For being a Tom Clancy game, you really don't need stealth to surive. You just need gun power and accuracy. I love all Tom Clancy games but this one by far takes the cake. You can customize your character and unlock weapons/clothing. Also I like the rank system to where you don't have to play online to get rank. You won't be disapointed when you buy this game.

This game was amazing. And even after beating the game you still have the option to play online (which is just okay) and Terrorist hunt. I prefer Terrorist hunt with only a pistol. Very challenging but yet fun. This game is best viewed with a HD tv, with proper cables and Surround sound as well. Also being able to customize your weapon with nearly anything you want was a great addition. Just wish you could have customized your guy, but thats what Vegas 2 did.
What's great about it: Everything
What's not so great: can not customize your guy for single player

This game wasn't called "game of the year" for nothing. The game play is about closest to real life combat movment you will see on a video game. I was dissapointed about how short the game play was. Also dissapointed when I heard COD 5 was going back to WWII era. COD4 is the best COD game available right now. Well worth the money and the online play is one of the best.

This game is what made the PS3. Mutiple enemies and weapons. This game will keep you on your toes through out the whole game. Highly recomended. After I beat the game I tried to go through the game again only using the default gun and that is even fun. Nearly impossible but fun.
