Eurogamer Call of Duty World At War Review 0

picture-11 Eurogamer Call of Duty World At War Review

Well Call of Duty World At War is out, and I’m not too bothered if I’m honest, and by the looks of my friends list, not many other people are bothered too. 

Whilst I’m still playing my way through again, and again, and again on Gears of War 2, still slogging away at Far Cry 2, Call of Duty: WAW isn’t even registered atm. BUT, looks like Eurogamer do give a damn. They’ve put up a review of COD: WAW, and, well, it’s an interesting read if anything.

World at War certainly benefits from Modern Warfare’s beefier graphics engine, but when it comes to the crunch it lacks the crucial innovations - both in gameplay and concept - that made its immediate predecessor so deservedly popular.

It’s a Call of Duty game, so it will sell, millions, but personally I’d still rather play COD: Modern Warfare.

Gears of War 2 ‘Kinda Review’ 1

gearsofwar_2 Gears of War 2 Kinda Review

Oh I’ve been a bus bee lately. After picking up FarCry 2 and playing that almost constant, on friday I picked up Gears of War 2, and again played that to death.

When I got the game, the over enthusiastic salesman is Zavvi went on to tell me how ‘awesome’ the game is, and as a fool I actually asked him how he’s managed to play it through already, even thought it had only just come out, ‘Well obviously we can’t have it on during the day, but last few evenings we’ve had it out after closing, finished it.‘, now, I didn’t bother asking anything else ’cause I was too busy thinking, ‘Wow, must be a short game’.

Coming in at around 8-9 hours, it might be classed as ’short’ when you compare it to FarCry 2 (i believe 40 hours was the benchmark?) but it really is a truly remarkable 9 hours. Those fella’s at Epic have pulled the cat out the bag again and have produced a marvel of a game.

So, this isn’t a proper review review, just my immediate thought. I’m not really one to review a game after the first play through, that’s like reviewing a car if you’ve only driven it round the block. You need time to rip down the tires, get a feel for it, because you never know on the first drive, you might miss something truly amazing… or bitterly disappointing.

Gears of War 2 Multiplayer Goodies 1

gow2title Gears of War 2 Multiplayer Goodies

XboxFocus is carrying a nice little review of the GOW2 Multiplayer, telling us of several features including the much needed increase of online players - to 10. Well being a FPS shooter fan myself, I’m a fan of the 16 player 8v8 or more, so 5v5 isn’t really that much more appealing to me, but when you compare it to 4v4, anything is a bonus. Hit more for… well more.
