seriously, i'm getting a lot of comments eluding to the effect of people not liking this game based on Treyarch developing it. This is not the case. The game is, for all intensive purposes, Call of Duty 4: WW2 edition. the problem with that is the weaponry is far to unbalanced and uninteresting in both the campaign and multiplayer for it to work. This game does not get fun, at all, until you get the more powerful machine guns.
The bolt guns, this game's equivalent of smiper rifles, are also horrible, to put it lightly. one second, a body shot on a barely visible foe is fatal, and other times, a blast to the face from 10 feet away leaves them unscathed. Needless to say, this makes me one unhappy pappy.
In what seems to be a developing trend for me, i'm going to have to say rent this one before you pick it up and see of the multiplayer might sustain you for more than a weekend. I'm guessing no.
The Nazi zombies were a cute touch but I reccommend playing them with friends, not because they are scary, but just because it is more fun and interactive that way.
Overall I reccommend it and rate it high :).
Much to my dismay this game felt ALOT like CoD3.. Meh, Nazi Zombies was dumb at first.. glitch then. glitch. I started just playing it for fun . glitch and I was hooked, glitch I like it... But not as much as I liked the Hostage add-on after CoD4. BUT it is fun and funner to play co-op with 4 ppl. Like I said, I play this alot at night online. Hit me up if you're bored and want to waste some time killing the already dead, undead..
The improvements this game has over CoD4 would be 2 fantastic objective modes, CTF and War clearly are the best online modes other than Team Deathmatch and SnD. The weapons are more varied, with more rifles, and snipers with no scopes, much less automatic machine guns. The maps slightly bigger, making rifles atleast worth using. There is no "Uber" cheap gun like the M16, MP40 is slightly overpowered but it's managable.
Nazi Zombies is super fun, I like how it's endless, it's old-school gaming where it never ends.
This game isnt getting a 9.0+ because FPS campaigns are way too linear. I guess it'd be a little hard to make a Metroid style campaign in a WWII setting, though. This game is only good if you have online.
Not worth buying if you have cod 4, its the old days
The guns are mostly crap until you have nearly pretiged so
Yeah dont get it
