Call of Duty 4 Review

It's time for yet another review!!!! This review will be on Call of Duty 4 Modern Warfare.
Call of Duty 4 is the fourth installment in the Call of Duty franchise. It is also the first of the series to be rated M for Mature. This game started what I call, The Call of M series. This currently consists of COD4, COD:WAW, and MW2. I have played all except MW2 and I will most likely never play it. I do not support the M game rating yet I do enjoy them.
COD4 was the first COD game to delve into the world of current day war. The campaign consists of the traditional COD feel. The story is pretty interesting, but it is not as good as other games. Included with the campaign is a great multiplayer mode which I actually got the game for.
This game uses the controls well and has my personal favorite shooter control layout of any game. You shoot with RT, and scope with LT. Simple as that and it makes great control. Who need clicking the right stick to zoom in.
As long as I have played this game I have not run into any glitches that I did not purposefully activate. Just going into a match with your friends and doing some of the glitches can be great fun as there are many good ones.
The COD4 online community is one of the biggest that has existed and was a close competitor with Halo 3. The online mode for Cod4 was also the first of the series to include a great ranking and unlock system incorporated. It had the ability that if you got to the highest level and got bored you could restart entirely from scratch with none of your unlocks except game modes and your clan tag. When you prestige which is what it is called, you get a special symbol in place of the rank symbol showing what prestige you are on. You can prestige at level 55 and there are 10 prestiges.
All in all this game is a great one and there is in fact a sequel to it. Though I don't intend to get it for awhile. If you want a good shooter this games goes well hand in hand with Halo 3 and is a must own for any gamers collection. My next review will be Left for Dead.
