Single Player Call of Duty

Well, I have played Call of Duty 3 on the Xbox 360, Call of Duty 4 on the Xbox 360, and Call of duty 5 on the PC. I do not own Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2.

All of my friends love the new Call of Duty. They claim it to be the best first person shooter to ever be released with groundbreaking graphics and physics and every other praise they can name. They tell how the game requires so much skill and everything is so realistic. Well from the few hours I have played, I can tell they are wrong. Wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong.

My single player impressions - A flimsy storyline relying on flashy unrealistic scenes. How many times must we play through a game where the Russians are the baddies and we have to destroy them. Is this still the 1900's! Is this another version of the Red Scare? Whoever labeled this game to be realistic is a fool. Yes because in real life its quite possible to shoot other snowmobiles while going 150 mph down a mountain side before launching over a cliff and suddenly flying to the other side. If you believe its possible, go try it, tell me how it works out. From playing through the entire single player I can say, re-playability is not possible. To suffer through it again would not be fun. Also I'm not just bashing it to bash it, there are some cool things in it too, such as the slow-mo hostage rescue scenes, shooting the hostiles while saving hostages... Awesome! Yet reading up on the Call of Duty and Infinity Ward history I can say they have lost their touch and initial goal. They left the Medal of Honor series to make a game that does not focus on one superhero soldier but to feel like just another soldier in a war. Super secret stealth missions to save the entire United States... tell me you dont just feel like another soldier in the war.
