Play through the chaos of battle as part of a well-trained squad, that lays down covering fire and pulls its wounded to safety. In addition to authentic squad movements and tactics, each soldier's distinct personality and training comes out on the battlefield.

5.0 out of 5 stars Just about all you can ask for, 19 Feb 2006
Where do I begin. For those of you who were hooked on the original Medal of Honour, this is just as good in every way. Althought there is more of an arcade feel to to game compared to EA's offering, once a skirmish begins you feel as though you are actually there pulling the trigger yourself.

This is by far one of the best games I have ever had the honour of purchasing when there are increasingly more rubbish wannabes available on the market.

5.0 out of 5 stars A New Type Of Gaming, 22 Aug 2004
This is a game that should set targets for developers. Forget that Americanised turd of Medal of Honor, this is what you should bust your money on.
Call of Duty introduces a new kind of war gaming. You actually have squads around you, similar to Operation Flashpoint, but they think for themselves. What you have to love about this game is that it borrows so heavily from the films we love. The final battle in Saving Private Ryan is similar to an earlier level in the game. The tutorial is like Band Of Brothers and, later on in the game, you will play levels similar to films but as the British and the Russians.
I think this is a breakthrough in gaming to have. For once we don't just have to play as an American in Normandy. Sure, paratrooper activies in Normandy is cool to play but was sadly cliched from Medal Of Honor. But more to the point: you will defend Pegasus Bridge with a company of paratroopers - this was a real battle and is the same as the location in Normandy. You'll have a dramatic opening to the Russian campaign in a steamer crossing the Volga river as in Enemy At The Gates. Wicked. Then, later on, you have the chance to defend the legendary "Pavlov's House", another real occurance that took place in Stalingrad.
The weapons are actually good in this game. You don't just use a Thompson and M1 Garand all the time. You see a wider selection: the British Sten and Bren guns, the Russian PPsH S.M.G, the German Panzerfaust and you'll see plenty of anti-tank rifles scattered around on some levels. It's one of those games where you can only have two guns with you at once which makes it so much more real and gives some suspense when you have to leg it for some more ammo stashed by your quartermaster in a ruined house and so on.
There are some Medal Of Honor type levels. In one particular mission you have to blow up a damn and kill Germans by the hundred. Those Special Forces missions just aren't fun. It's so refreshing to see a real battle and to fight it alongside your comrades.
The Germans are for once not immaculately uniformed. They're as scruffy as your own men so you're not fighting the stereotypical soldiers with the jackboots. However, it would be nice to see a game be made where for once you are a German fighting in Stalingrad or Normandy because it's more original and I think would attract quite an audience. Some of what I've heard happen in war to German troops is as interesting as any other record of war experiences.
Anyway, a game with fantastic atmosphere and environments, as well as missions that borrow from films. What more could you want? If you're a WW2 lover or even general war buff, this should be bought because of the originality and historical atmosphere.

5.0 out of 5 stars What a game..., 11 Dec 2004
If you like FPS games, buy this game. If you don't like FPS games, still buy it. This is an amazing game. Better than MoH and that's saying something - it's easy to see why CoD managed to achieve game of the year. The whole atmosphere of the game draws you in, immersing you in the explosive battles of WWII, ranging from D-Day to Stalingrad to Berlin.

One of the ways that CoD exceeds MoH is the idea that for the majority of the game you find yourself fighting as part of a squad. With the exception of one or two levels (such as the dam level, and boarding the Tirpitz) you find yourself fighting alongside your team-mates, laying down covering fire, lobbing grenades left right and centre or manning heavy artillery pieces and driving tanks. It's so much more realistic and makes you feel you are right there in amongst the action. It's also more realistic in the way you can only carry 2 weapons at a time (usually a rifle and a MG) plus your pistol and grenades. Selection of weapons is good with all guns having different characteristics, some you'll prefer over others.

Favourite levels include defending Pegasus bridge as a Panzer division and a platoon of German soldiers advance upon you; being a raw Russian recruit scrambling under heavy enemy fire into the ruins of Stalingrad; and the climactic struggle to take Berlin.

Overall the graphics are beautiful, the sound immersive and the gameplay stimulating, so much so that as soon as I completed it the first time, I went straight back and started the game again. And I've not even tried the multiplayer yet!
