[Game Demo] A warfare thats all too sweet

16 10 2007

I have once told myself that i will not play anymore World War II scenario games since it has rather been recycled or retold countless times in different styles and forms especially in the format of video games. Do not get me wrong, i don’t hate them but i just gotten tired of the same old theme much like the fantasy theme for mmorpgs. As tired as it might get, it did churn out quite a few good titles such as Battlefield, Call of Duty, Medal of Honor, Company of Heroes and so much more from the RTS or the ever popular FPS genre, which i dare say really cash in quite alot for those developers.

Recently, a release for the very anticipated CoD4 single player demo was released and i might say this could very well be a big hit when it finally hits the official date. I’ve never played any of the previous CoD series but upon playing the demo, i realize how i’ve missed out a good series. The demo only consist of one short mission but still it’s good enough to slake in the huge anticipation from fans and so much for those who never played the series. During the play of the demo, one things for sure, the graphics are superbly detailed, from the character model to the guns. I really like the way the laser sights from your primary weapon turn into solid beams when you turn on night-vision mode. I can’t ever imagine how dx10 would be for this game. The sounds for the game is as very well nailed down to the core. One sad thing about the demo is that it ends too quickly. You just get to shoot a few things and people and before you know it, the demo ends but it sure leaves a good impression to some.

Despite all the good raves for the game, i’ve read quite few regarding the single player gameplay being boring or being just the same as the previous CoD except it’s in a modern setting. I can’t really say much on this since i’ve never played the previous installments but one i thing i do agree on is the rpg aspects of the multiplayer which is probably the selling point of the game and for that i’m very much looking forward for the multiplayer.
