Advanced Enemies, New Environments, and Fearless Tactics
You've never encountered combat challenges like those presented in Call of Duty: World at War. Prepare yourself to face off against ruthless enemies who employ advanced tactics. Your foes will stop at nothing to defend their homelands. With swampy ambushes, tree-top snipers, and fearless Kamikaze attacks, there is no safe place to turn. As U.S. Marine and Russian conscripts, you'll battle against the fearless Imperial Japanese and elite German soldiers in epic infantry, vehicle, and airborne missions across a variety of Pacific and European locations. On foot, behind the wheel, or in the air, you'll have to be relentless to achieve victory.

Now you can share the terrifying experience of campaign missions with your friends for greater camaraderie and improved tactical execution. Co-op mode also incorporates innovative multiplayer components, such as challenges, rankings and online stats, and even features a competitive co-op mode that will identify the best player on your team.

When this game came out it was not all that great. However the patch fixed all of my biggest complaints. No more people getting under maps and the weapons are more accurate. Still some issues need fixing, but overall a solid fun shooter.

I bought this game for my husband for Christmas...he started playing it a couple of nights ago and I don't think he has gotten much sleep...he can't seem to put the controller down. I assume that means it is a great game !

Best Game EVER!!! January 7, 2009
E. W. Wingrove (Charlotte Hall, MD)
This is probably the best COD game yet. The solo player game is awsome!!! alot more challanging than the previous COD games. also, once you beat the game you can play "Zombies" on co-op mode which your in a building and zombies are trying to get in and you and others go as long as you can until your taken over. Multiplayer is about the same as COD4 except the graphics are WAY better on this one. you can call in dogs which are a pain in the a$$ to kill and much more. I definatly reccomend picking up this title.

Great Graphical Display of a Tired Genre January 6, 2009
David Bassler and Yuen Mei Chan (San Diego, CA)
Overall I do enjoy playing this game and picking up a copy on sale at $35 was a steal. However, it lost its allure a little quicker than expected, perhaps because I feel like I am essentially replaying COD4 in a WW2 setting. The most frustrating thing though is the small map sizes. I spent months playing Bad Company and kind of became accustomed to large maps and a destructible environment. It really disappoints when you try to flank an enemy only to find that you are at the limits of the map while you are taking heavy fire. The story line plays out very well and this game is the best I have seen in bridging history with gameplay. The online play is enjoyable, but with small maps you had better be quick with your weapons.
