Nostalgia ~ Great Read, and pretty much sums up my feelings for the game. I remember falling in love with CoD1 ;<


~Doesn't mention Dedicated Servers, so for all those people sick and tired of reading every side of that story, this is mildly refreshing.

Twas an intereresting read.



ps - beat me to it...

That was a great read =]

It's true though, the game is more about action and less about immersion.

i agree, all though i never played much of vcod coz i was only a youngin with dialup , i did enjoy the singleplayer to it and beating my dad over network play

Very little immersion in COD series.

xD unc
will we be doomed to forever take from reddit?

you were 10 when it came out but what ever

and?

abyz is a m8

but it was a good read!

vCoD still remains one of the games that I have enjoyed the most

I sort of agree with what he was getting at in the article.

I still believe though that the CoD single player game, as a series, has been horrendously overrated.

Each game has been pretty much a carbon copy theme park "on rails" scripted affair with the same rehashed objectives and style, just with different backdrops.

In the original game, this wasn't as such an issue: the big scripted battle scene was all the rage thanks to MoH and a number of popular WW2 movies that had been released. There was a certain immersion being part of big WW2 set pieces as well and it did give an appreciation for the real life history.

However, since that game, they have shown zero ******* evolution or growth of ideas. Just been more of the same "plant the c4 on the glowing marker" rubbish.

All the modern warfare titles have done is add in a cluster**** of bullshit features and weapons designed to appeal to the new generation of xbox idiots who think its cutting edge when in reality its all window dressing.

the day CoD dies.

but wait, theres console!!!!


lol @ ur sig tron

That was a great read and very true. The series has come a long way from it's roots, sometimes I wonder how many of the developers from the original CoD are still with Infinity Ward today.

Very nice find

sif none of you were "immersed" when that guy chucks you the pistol at the end of CoD4. dat was badass
