I thought this game was total bad ass. The single player is a little to slow to say the least. I thought with such a modern game that the single player would have alot more stuff to do, and more people to kill.
The muliplayer is the only reason to really buy this game. I love the controlls and the gameplay. The way you can just talk to your friends when you want, and you can stratigize to kick major butt is just so awesome. I have played almost every fps game out and this takes the cake by far.

The cinematic storyline was really cool but way too short for me. It also seemed like the amazing cinematic-style sequences like rescuing the downed chopper pilot were just sort of interludes to some pretty humdrum FPS gameplay that was no different than any other COD other than the modern setting.

An above average single player game. It brings nothing new to the genre like alot of other fps games out there, i’m not saying its bad, but imo its been overrated and was something of a letdown.
Multiplayer strikes me as being a cross between battlefield 2 and counter-strike making it differ from the norm but again its nothing spectacular.
Thats not to say the experience is not enjoyable, but compared to games such as America’s army, CoD4′s portrail of a modern combat experience leaves little challenge for your average fps seasoned veteran.

This is “THE GAME. ” Forget Doom. Forget its predecessors. I’ve played almost all of Avault’s seal of excellence games. This blows away ANYTHING I’ve ever experienced playing video games. And I’ve played Monkey Island, Wing Commander, and about 200 other titles in my 33 years of existence.

I agree. This is the kind of game where actually having objectives to complete in multiplayer brings out the best. After all, what’s the point of taking the M60 along if you can’t reliably use suppressing fire on key terrain that the enemy has to cross in order to complete the objective?

The multiplayer in this game is fantastic, but it’s a shame that so many servers are only hosting the most boring and inane game type – Team Deathmatch. That’s a great style for some games, like maybe Unreal Tournament, but CoD4 was designed to be so much more than that. Search & Destroy is where CoD4 really shines.
