The enemy AI is good, in all respects, and gives Call of Duty a realistic edge that WW2 fans will love.
Players will also be amazed by the game's realistic sound. During the heat of a battle, you will be able to hear the distinct sounds of gunshots, shouting soldiers, Panzers moving, and air raid sirens. During the oh-so-cool car chases, you will even notice the sound of the car engines.
The graphics will remind you of MoH. Character models look a little outdated, and vegetation looks blocky. Other than that, weapons, background scenery, and all world objects are modeled beautifully.
Just like in MOH, mission briefings are very boring.
They are presented to you through a slideshow that usually just shows you points on a map, as a commander's voice narrates the briefing. They could have been greatly improved by adding a video cinematic or something more exciting.
Multiplayer is included in the package, which makes it even better. I found Deathmatch mode to be the best. Spawning times are very short, and it only takes five seconds for you to get wasted. Call of Duty multiplayer is like Battlefield on speed: same concept, you just die a lot quicker. Nonetheless, it's still a fun experience.
Call of Duty is not just another WW2 shooter. It provides a great single player campaign and a fun multiplayer experience. Even though it's a pretty short game overall, it will definitely be on the top of your game list for the holidays.
