- advancedOption, on 11/06/2007, -6/+918/10 = a bad game
9/10 = average game
10/10 = a good game, you should at least rent
I'm so sick of game reviews, they're complete BS. How anyone can take them seriously anymore is a mystery to me. - chocobomog, on 11/03/2007, -7/+71Didn't Halo 3 get the same score even with similarly short single player mode?
- jooks, on 11/03/2007, -0/+45This games multiplayer is really fun, but seriously 10/10 etc is really losing its luster.
- vinblackham, on 11/03/2007, -2/+44no to get off the subject of it being on ps3...but the pc demo was sick!
- DragonQuester, on 11/03/2007, -17/+5710 out of 10? With only the 4 to 6 hour single player mode? Wow...
- noobeffect, on 11/02/2007, -4/+39Before people start questioning the length of the campaign, OPM has stated that SP is "around 8 hours," in length.
http://www.cod4gamers.net/resources/images/cod4/op ... - Ouze, on 11/03/2007, -2/+33yet more of the rating systems in video game magazines being completely ***** meaningless. 10 out of 10 should be essentially the GREATEST GAME OF ALL TIME. I don't understand why they are so afraid of giving like "5" reviews. In my mind 5 should be the average review. There should be nothing wrong with being a solid 5, an average game. Instead it's really a scale from 7-10, with anything lower being strictly reserved for small games from smaller publishers who don't advertise heavily in print media.
By their own system, that would make COD4 better then God of War, which they gave a 9.6. Is it really? - aMammoth, on 11/03/2007, -3/+31Meh they they just want to make it look like a cross platform halo killer.
- quomen, on 11/03/2007, -2/+30Can you attach a mouse and keyboard to the play game?
BTW, I'm getting a "Upgrade to Pro Today! Bandwidth Exceeded".
Why would you link to a photobucket article and not the actual article itself? - charlescheese, on 11/02/2007, -6/+32I just preordered the PS3 version from family video for $49 shipped. Use coupon code NEWMEM5F to get it at that price.
Given that the PS3 version looks as good or better than the 360 version, I expect it to do very well. Multiplatform releases have done poorly on PS3 because devs have not taken the time to do them properly. COD4 was built side by side with the 360 version and is not a port. It should do quite well.
Plus, Haze is looking pretty lame and UT3 is probably delayed. That leaves a huge hole for COD4 to fill, and fill it, it will. I also think free online will help this game do well on PS3. - joltjake, on 11/03/2007, -2/+28too many games are getting perfect scores without being perfect games.
- xXMetalJesusXx, on 10/31/2007, -3/+24Duck hunt was the closest thing to perfection
- noobeffect, on 11/03/2007, -7/+28The Official Playstation Magazine mentioned that SP was 8 hours.
- noobeffect, on 11/03/2007, -3/+22It was mentioned in the review that SP was 8 hours long.
- deaftly, on 11/03/2007, -0/+19im definitely getting the OC version
- ZenMojo, on 10/31/2007, -1/+20I don't know. Mount Everest is surrounded by tall mountains that no one gives a ***** about.
- swordman69, on 11/03/2007, -5/+24Wow, a 10 out of 10 by the official Playstation magazine?? That NEVER happens. Those guys alway provide accurate and non-biased reviews. They would never boost a rating on a game just to try and drive sales.
- Irvulous, on 11/03/2007, -6/+24I'm so glad the guy who played the demo and beta is here to tell me what the full game is really like. Forget those guys who've played the final copy, this guy knows what he's talking about.
- bigbadgoat, on 10/31/2007, -5/+23If thats the reason, I guess no one would bother making games for the PS3, Xbox 360, and wii, with 120-130 million install base of the PS2.
- cavie2002, on 11/03/2007, -1/+17to me goldeneye 007 and ocarina of time are the only 10s in my heart
- shyner, on 11/03/2007, -5/+20I stopped reading OPM years ago when there got to be more pages of ads than actual content. ***** annoying.
- CDRaff, on 11/03/2007, -0/+12I am more than willing to love a short game as long as it is good. Just as I am willing to play a game that has less than average graphics, as long as it is good. I think that we place way to much focus on graphic and game time, when really we should look at substance.
- ZenMojo, on 10/31/2007, -0/+12You want realistic sword-fighting, play Bushido Blade for the PS1. Otherwise, you'll be sorely disappointed in every game.
- BlackJackJester, on 10/31/2007, -1/+12game of the year is just like a longest penis competition. In the end, a vagina is only so deep...
- Rabbethan, on 10/31/2007, -0/+11I thought OPM was shut down
- swanny89, on 10/31/2007, -2/+13I'd rather play portal for two hours than a bland shooter for ten. That said, I expect Call of Duty 4's SP to be on par with the rest of the CoD series, meaning excellent. Still a bit too short, but good nonetheless.
- charlescheese, on 10/31/2007, -1/+11No you can't. You can use the Frag FX though. This was confirmed today by Infinity Ward.
- PhoenixAvatar2, on 10/31/2007, -1/+11Will Photobucket become another imageshack?
I hate it when people post imageshack pics on popular websites. - yohnstoppable, on 11/03/2007, -2/+12Game ratings have become so damned inflated recently. I'm not saying COD4 isn't 10/10, because I obviously haven't played it. I would bet my right testicle that it isn't the perfect game that would entail a 10, though. It is just so odd that so many "perfect games" are coming out now. There isn't a single game I've played in my life time I'd give a perfect 10 too. I played enough of my favorite games to find plenty of stuff that pissed me off
- kinerry, on 11/03/2007, -6/+15ps3 spam
- samdu, on 10/31/2007, -0/+9"Realistic sword fighting." Not unless they've changed some things dramatically since the last time they showed it.
- inactive, on 11/03/2007, -12/+2110/10? I call BS. I played the CoD4 demo on PC and was quite disappointed. The game plays exactly the same as CoD/CoD2 and the graphics are nothing special. The AI is non-existant. Enemies either stand around and shoot until they die, or they do small bits of scripted things, like rushing forward until killed. CoD4 is about as shallow as it can get, single player wise. The multiplayer seems a bit more promising with some customization, but I don't think I'll be playing it in favor of CS or TF2.
- mggs, on 10/31/2007, -0/+9Absolute *****?
- ortucis, on 11/03/2007, -0/+8HALO still sucks?
- noahw, on 11/03/2007, -0/+8Mirror: http://echopic.com/7zy
Original image link exceeded bandwidth. - zebr, on 11/01/2007, -2/+9Sound good. Hopefully the 360 version impacts reviewers just as this one did.
- charlescheese, on 10/31/2007, -0/+7No mouse and keyboard support.
- BlackJackJester, on 11/03/2007, -0/+7O.o then what is Lair with its 4.9/10 (ign)???
- HairyGrapeNuts, on 11/03/2007, -5/+12The multiplayer is what will make this game. I don't understand why people can grasp this in their heads.
- djSyndrome, on 10/31/2007, -2/+9This goes without saying, but the 360 is a year older than the PS3. At the end of the 360's first year you could count the good games on one hand - and still have a few fingers leftover.
- triplehelix, on 10/31/2007, -1/+8you don't get to pick and choose which information you want to use just so your argument looks correct. if your logic can't stand up to the inclusion of more but related information, your logic is faulty.
- Pake, on 10/31/2007, -0/+7Someone selling a "25,000 HOURS FREE! America Online" cd for $60.
- ch0p57ickz, on 10/31/2007, -0/+7since when was COD 4 licensed by Sony? It's being released on 360 as well. for the love of god.. stop with the sony bashing. If you don't like it, stick with your wii/360 and leave everyone alone.
- ZenMojo, on 11/03/2007, -5/+11Let me get this straight. None of the people here have actually played through the game but they're all making snarky comments about how the ratings are overblown?
- yournamehere, on 11/03/2007, -1/+710 games out of 10 ?
- andydumi, on 10/31/2007, -3/+9This is ione of the first games that has been developed independently on each platform a the same time, as opposed to make one then port over. So that is one of the reasons why some reviewers are saying on PS3 it may actually look better.
- samdu, on 10/31/2007, -1/+7As for the "PS3 having the smallest install base" comment, exactly what does that do to contradict the quote you pulled? On the "review trying to garner some type of buzz" comment, did it occur to you that perhaps the game is simply that good?
- Iwantawii, on 10/31/2007, -0/+6Yes, make a good online element and your game lasts forever. Well, until the next game comes along anyways. CoD's fanbase to me seems largely keeping the game alive through multiplayer, so I'd consider the 5 - 8 hour SP mode "training."
- Optimaximal, on 11/03/2007, -1/+7The reviewer gave the game a ***** 10/10, how can you even believe it?
Not one game in existence is perfect - Not Deus Ex, not Crysis, not Bioshock, Half-Life 2, Ocarina of Time, Metroid Prime 3, Smash Bros Melee nor Final Fantasy VII... Such a game does not exist & never can... Rating a game as such is bad sensationalist reviewing designed to appease to fan boys and games publishers. - joltjake, on 10/30/2007, -1/+7Can we get a ban please?
