[Review] Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare (PC / XBOX 360 / PS3 / Wii)

Simply put, Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare is one of the absolute best games to grace any platform to date. There's no better way to put it; Call of Duty 4 is one of the best FPS's (First Person Shooter) to come out ever. Even in the PC port, the game is elegant and very addicting with great online multiplayer gameplay that keeps gamers coming back for more.
Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare is an FPS (First Person Shooter) for every current-generation game console and PC. In the campaign mode , players are rotated through the ranks of the British S.A.S. (Special Air Service) and the United States Marines. Unlike previous Call of Duty games, which all took place during World War II, Call of Duty 4 is set in current time in a hypothetical modern war against a Middle Eastern terrorist group, whose leader is named Al-Asad. Objectives for the game range from escaping a crashed airplane and rescuing a group of troops or downed captain to raiding a cargo ship or sniping an arms dealer of Weapons of Mass Destruction (WoMDs).

The graphics in Call of Duty 4 are the best so far compared with any other game to date; the sounds make the player feel as if he is right there chatting with other soldiers; the cinematic scenes are completely epic; and the amazing playability is just unbeatable. Call of Duty 4 is one game that gamers will need to take a quick break from just to be sure that they aren't actually in it. Many times players will be caught standing still just to listen and watch an explosion or the overview of the war taking place right in front of them. The first step onto the battlefield will be the most memorable of all battlefield experiences.
The graphics of Call of Duty 4 are like no other. The immense detail and textures will make any gamer's monitor appear to be a little window into the battlefield, and it runs at 60 frames per second throughout. Screenshots of the game can easily be uploaded to albums and when compared to photos of real battles, it’s hard to find many distinctions between the two.
Even after a player has taken their first step onto the battlefield and stared in awe at the amazing quality of the graphics in Call of Duty 4, seemingly real enemies jumping from around corners and through doors or explosions going off right in front of their faces are guaranteed to make any player jump, even the second or third time around
Overall, Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare is one of the best shooters to come out for any console or PC and will be heralded as such for years to come. If the stunning realism, seamless playability, and amazing graphics don't keep gamers occupied with the campaign, the addicting multiplayer will always give them something new and exciting to do. This is one game that won’t be remembered as a standout in an otherwise bland series, but as an amazing standalone title. “Let's do it, Marines!”
