ALRIGHT. THIS GAME IS ONE OF THE BEST GAMES MADE FOR XBOX. THO SINCE THE GAME JUST CAME OUT THERE ARE A FEW PROBLEMS BUT I WOULD DEFINITELY BUY THIS OVER COD4. NOTHING IS WRONG WITH COD4, BUT CoD: WORLD AT WAR, IS JUST COD4 WITH MORE ADDITIONS. ALTHO THE BOUNDARIES SUCK, LIKE IF THERES A LITTLE ROCK, U HAVE TO GO AROUND IT WHERE AS IN ANY OTHER GAME U COULD JUST GO THREW IT. THE MELLEE IN THIS GAME IS NOT AS GOOD AS THE ONE IN COD4. IN COD4 IT WAS A KILL NO MATTER WHAT, IN COD5 U HAVE TO BE RIGHT ON IN HITTING THE GUY U WANNA KILL. THE GAME WAS BASED OFF THE ENGINE OF COD4 SO U KNOW ITS JUST AS GOOD EVEN THO TREY ARCHE HAS MADE SOME STINKERS IN THE PAST FEW YEARS. THE GRAPHICS WERE MY MAIN DISAPPOINTMENT. I THOUGHT IT WAS EITHER GOING TO BE THE SAME OR BETTER THAN COD4, IT WASNT. NOT THAT THE GRAPHICS ARE EQUIVALENT TO PLAYSTATION 1 GRAPHICS, BUT THEY'RE A TAD WORSE THAN COD3'S GRAPHICS. OTHER THAN THAT ITS A LOAD OF FUN ESPECIALLY WHEN PLAYING WITH 3 OF YOUR FRIENDS IN A FREE FOR ALL PRIVATE MATCH. HAVE FUN!!
What's great about it: FUN, CAMPAIGN IS AWESOME, MATCHMAKING ALWAYS FUN. ZOMBIES
