Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars
Let me say, first off, that I'm rating this game based on their storyline, their zombie game, their online, and their co-op. I have no feelings about the guns, because I mean, it's WWII. I knew they were going to be nerfed and weakened down. I knew bolt actions would be boosted because so many people whined and whined on the forums about not being a "one shot sniper god"-- Storyline: It's completely fine. A lot better than CoD3, because you switch back and forth so much between America and Russia against Japan and Germany. Don't get me wrong, it didn't quite hook me as deeply as CoD4, but then again, I knew basically what was gonna happen in the game- I knew we'd win the war, I knew lots of people would die, and I knew it would all be great and grand in the end with lots of celebrating. CoD4, no, you didn't know anything that was gonna happen next, that's how they hooked you. You can't complain about this storyline just because you can "foreshadow" your HISTORICAL victory. Honestly. Nazi Zombies: Upon beating campaign on any difficulty, you unlock the bonus mode, "Nazi Zombies" where you're trapped in a building by yourself or with friends and you, yeah, fight off hordes of zombies as long as you can. Is it fun? Not by yourself, unless you're one of those people that like being alone... When you're with a group of 4, with 3 friends, yeah, I personally have tons and tons of fun. Nothing quite like laughing while you poke your gun at a crawling zombie with no legs that keeps trying to bite you. I've had more fun with the Nazi Zombies mode than I have with CoD4 multiplayer & CoD5 multiplayer put together. It's just fun, luck, and skill. Online Multiplayer: Here's where the game lost a star in the "fun" part of this rating... Online Multiplayer is without a doubt... boring. It's basically if I can pull my trigger before you, I kill you. If you pull yours before me, you kill me... let down :/ The spawn points are as said earlier... really messed up. I recall playing a match recently with tanks on the level. The other team had all 4 tanks, and they had parked their tanks outside of my team's spawn. Basically, when we so much as tried to leave our spawn, we were tanked down. It was horrible. Sniping is so much more aggrivating than CoD4... Don't get me wrong, I appreciate having to earn my own sniper scope. THAT is fair, no sarcasm or anything. I feel you should show skill before just jumping in with a scope and going 'YEAH I RULE' However-- I don't agree with a bunch of kids that haven't hit puberty yet putting Stopping Power and Steady Aim on their class and just basically spraying with a bolt action and getting insta-kills. THAT makes me mad. Co-op: You can't complain about their co-op. They give you the option to play storymode with friends, they give you the option to fight together, they give you the option to NOT fight alone. Is it perfect? Not really- only because I don't approve of having one teammate die and the rest of the team fails because of it. That's my only dislike in the co-op. I personally enjoy playing with my friends on xbox live or split-screen :). That's it. It's a decent game. If you enjoyed CoD4 because of style, graphics, and playing with friends-- get this game. If you enjoyed CoD4 simply for the storyline and 'pwning' people on multiplayer with your ultra awesome skill that no one in the world could ever hope to match... I'd recommend staying a no-lifer on CoD4, because this game would just make you mad. Oh, and by the way- The game is not "too dark" If you use your brain and go to OPTIONS in the pause menu... you can adjust how dark or bright the game is. People are so clueless sometimes. It's like calling tech support and when they tell you to turn the off switch to on you reply with, "oh..."
