    This is a markedly better game than "Call of Duty 2: Big Red One" and the finest World War II gameplay on the current-generation consoles.

    Call of Duty 3 isn't just another first-person shooter that takes place during World War II. It's a fantastic game with great online play and top-notch sound.

    Call of Duty 3 could have been more than just another copy of previous installments, but with unnecessary gameplay mechanics, dumb AI, and a forgettable storyline, it brings nothing new in terms of enjoyment. Gorgeous visuals and a great multiplayer simply could not save Call of Duty 3 from being just a different battle in the same tired war.

    COd 3 is pretty good. the single player was real good,like planting charges and beating the crap out of guys manualy.I liked playing a canadian,since i am one. but the polish campaign was a little dissapointing because there was only the 2 levles and they portraied the americans a little too much.the a1 is really good for COD though.Idont have much to say about online though cause i dont play online on consoles.over all it was good.it was no Cod 2 though.… Expand

    I like the graphics, but I am very disappointed with the online portion. No kick option, no round restart, not allowed to change the game name. I find it annoying having to end the game everytime I want to change maps, or go make a new room altogether. I really enjoy COD2 for all these features. As well for all the hype for this game, i am surprised at the lack of weapons and maps. I must say, i am overall really disappointed with COD3.… Expand

    One word, "disappointing" the battle action is great, but everything else is a letdown. what I liked about COD 2 was going through war with one outfit (The Big Red 1) in COD 3 You bounce around between an American unit, a Polish, a Canadian, and British. I never got that feeling of comradery half the time I wasn;t shure what My name was. in My opinion They should have picked a unit like the big red 1, 86nd, or 101st airborne so You get to know the men You're fighting beside. I also would love to see a series of Marine Corps battles in the Pacific theater...Semper Fi.… Expand
