CAMPAIGN
While Infinity Ward was praised for Call of Duty 4's excellent single player campaign, Call of Duty World at War did an excellent job in creating another Hardcore campaign for die-hard Call of Duty fans. While most would still say it isn't as good as Call of Duty 4, it is still action packed and exciting. While playing this, I noticed a very intelligent AI. The Call of Duty series has always done well in making the campaign challenging and realistic, but this has a very intelligent opponent when playing campaign. They know when to run away from your flamethrower, as well as when to be stealthy while you get in a sniper battle. It's not easy throwing a grenade now, seeing how they throw it back with success quite often, especially when you play on a high difficulty.
This is one of the best campaigns I have ever played on out of any video game. There was Hardcore Flamethrower-carnage, challenging sniper battles with other German Snipers, Machine Gun battles with your Mounted MG42, tanks, dogs, and even a mission called Black Cats in which you get to control the gunners of a WWII fighter plane as ou try to take out as many enemy planes and ships as possible. This is extremely fun. There is even one mission in which you get to grab mortar shells and throw them at your Japanese opponents.
TOP 3 MISSIONS:
Blowtorch and Corkscrew
Vendetta
Black Cats
ZOMBIE MODE
Probably the best aspect of this game is the mini game called Nazi Zombies played on the map Nacht Der Untoten. This is an extremely Hardcore game mode in which you can play by yourself, with a friend in your living room, or with multiple friends on XBOX Live. It's an awesome survival mode in which you survive the infinite swarm of zombies which are seeking revenge on the American soldiers. Start out with a simple Colt pistol, and then save up to play the Random Game in which you can just cross your fingers and hope you get that Ray Gun, Flamethrower, or Browning machine gun.
Look for a new Zombie Mode map some time on March 16 in which will be played at the Asylum. While playing on the new map look for perk-a-Cola machines where you can purchase special perks to help defend yourself from the living-dead.
NOTE: You can unlock Zombie Mode by defeating any difficulty of Campaign.
XBOX LIVE MULTIPLAYER
XBOX Live continues to be one of the main focuses of the players when it comes to how good a video game is. Well then does Treyarch have a gift for you. Treyarch here has created the number one XBOX Live game of 2008. Call of Duty World at War's online multiplayer is arguably the best online version of this game compared to the other systems in which it was released on.
