The odds have always been stacked against Call of Duty: World at War. This sequel revisits an undeniably exhausted FPS setting—World War II—and wasn’t designed by series creator Infinity Ward, but Treyarch has delivered a sufficiently compelling shoot...
Lengthy singleplayer campaign is engaging; fun coop mode.
Unimpressive AI; tired setting; makes us long for Call of Duty 4.

I have to start this off with saying, while I like the whole Call of Duty series, I’m really tired of playing through history, and I would much rather play in modern times with today’s modern technology and weapons, yes the games are great, they’re fu...

Back to WWII yet again...
Call of Duty World at War is an excellent game overall, it’s got everything that any gamer would want in a game of this type, blood, gore, violence, bad language and so much more. Treyarch does a great job utilizing the COD4 engine for this game, an...

Eventually I wussed out and played through it on easy because that at least kept the frequency of the instant deaths down to a minimum and since the game has no AI and the enemies are equally numerous and about as easy to kill, it appears to me that th...

World at War could be seen as something of a step back for the Call of Duty series, which shifted to the present day with last year’s Modern Warfare. Instead of re-using the previous game’s frenetic contemporary setting, World at War returns the first-...

Call of Duty World at War was a title born with huge expectations riding on its tiny little shoulders. Not only were discerning CoD fans watching Treyarch’s every move after CoD 3 failed to impress, but the game also had to match the standards set by I...
Epic set pieces, Looks awesome, Killer voice acting, Offers tons of replayability, Brutal combat is a welcome addition to the CoD series...
Feels a bit too much like Modern Warfare for its own good, Painfully dumb A.I, Single player campaign is too short...
Finally we have WaW’s multiplayer component that’s nearly as awesome as Modern Warfare’s. Once again Treyarch have blatantly lifted 90% of MW’s features but then again, why fix something that isn’t broken? They’ve slapp...

Call of Duty: World at War launched and found some excellent sales its first week, despite fighting an uphill battle against a bad reputation and some at least partially unfair animosity towards developer Treyarch. Call of Duty is the creation of Infi...

Just when you thought Modern Warfare was the current FPS fad Treyarch welcomes you back to World War II in Call of Duty: World at War. Like most of my friends I was disappointed to hear that we would be revisiting the tired WWII era this year, but who...

Call of Duty: World at War is the fifth major installment in the series and the second to be developed by Treyarch who was also responsible for Call of Duty 3, a console-only version of the game. Considering the high expectations built around this rele...
I have to admit I was very skeptical about Call of Duty: World at War upon learning it wasn't being developed by Infinity Ward, the original creators of the series and developers of all previous PC releases. However, as it turns out, World at War is a...

Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare is easily my most played game of 2007. It was, in fact, the title that made me truly care about online gaming, thanks to its fast-paced "meat grinder" style of play and fantastic promotion system. It was one of the bigge...

Gamers aren't a very open minded bunch it seems. From the moment Activision announced that Treyarch, the development studio behind Call of Duty 3, was working on Call of Duty: World at War the game couldn't get a break. Whatever the press saw and repor...

"60 million lives were lost as a result of World War II," reads a title card kicking off the end credits of Call of Duty: World at War. "It was the most destructive and deadliest conflict in human history." Its an odd way to end a game that spends mo...
The basic Call of Duty combat model remains intact; fantastic co-op mode and multiplayer options.
Solo campaigns get a little sloppy at times and often feel a bit generic.

Not a huge departure in terms of how the game plays out. There is a rhythm to the levels, each with a hump that must be crested to begin the downhill run to the next level in the story arc. Overall the game feels a bit short but is not only a very tast...

After Call of Duty 3, many longtime series fans -- myself included -- were skeptical at the prospect of future Treyarch-developed titles. Call of Duty 3 disappointed a lot of players -- especially when Call of Duty creator Infinity Ward's Call of Duty...

I'm a big CoD honk; I played the first two games religiously and every now and again, I'll reinstall one or the other and play through it from beginning to end. I didn't appreciate the third installment very much, mostly because they didn't bother rele...

I had high hopes for this game, but it failed to reach my expectations, and even fell a tad short of what I was expecting as a minimum (in terms of gameplay, story, etc.). Anyway, keep in mind that this was written after only a dozen or so hours pu...
the second chance mechanism could’ve been implemented better, but I suppose it works well enough. While it is true that the lack of objectives isn’t as large a problem in cooperative mode (though some missions will still test that), there are moments...
