Excellent Game with close to no problems

By johnmanz (ciao.co.uk) Read the full review

Great game that accurately sums up the serious with a successful campaign. The multiplayer has a great basis but leaves much to be desired in the reliability of the online servers. In my opinion, this game is a must have for the average first person...

Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare - Xbox 360 review - Pocket-lint

By Stuart Miles (pocket-lint.com)

Can the latest COD game impress battle hardened gamers?

Graphics, storyline, realism

While it's a solid thumbs up, grumbles in gameplay and AI stop us giving it top marks

Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare

By Sasha Muller (expertreviews.co.uk)

Ever since iD's Wolfenstein 3D came out in 1992, World War II has inspired a long line of games. Credit for several of the best can be claimed by the developers of Call of Duty 4, Infinity Ward. Many of the team worked on the legendary Medal of Honor...

Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare

By Stuart Andrews (trustedreviews.com)

Award: Recommended!

Call of Duty 3 may have been a disappointment, but CoD4 makes up for that in spades.

Call of Duty's switch to the modern era has bought it back to winning form with a blast. Superbly paced and pumped with adrenaline, it's the all-action blockbuster to beat.

Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare PC Review

By Wedgeh (gameon.co.uk)

Ok so here we go with Activisions' 8th instalment of the Call of Duty franchise, this time with the best people for the job back at the helm in the form of Infinity Ward. I state 8th instalment as it literally is the 8th game to appear from the Call of...

Great single player storyline ; Fantastic multiplayer ; Impressive visuals ; Immersive sounds

That bloody regenerating health ; Tendency to come across that "ultra swearing hyper skilled 15 year old that repeatedly shoots you in the face as he plays the game for 8 hours a day" in multiplayer ; AI can be annoying at times

Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare

By Steve Caplin (macuser.co.uk)

This is the fourth instalment in the hugely successful Call of Duty series, the first-person shooter that has redefined the genre. What has consistently marked out Call of Duty is the realism of the game's situations and graphics, and the fact that you...

CoD 4 is tight, engrossing and totally immersive. With enhanced enemy AI - which means they're better at killing you - as well as powerful storylines and relentless action, this is about the most fun you can have without breaking the law. The game...

But then there's always Multiplayer mode, in which you can pit your wits against real people online - and they won't always be as straightforward to outwit as the artificial enemies in the single-player game

Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare review

By (macworld.co.uk)

Award: Editor's Choice!

Call Of Duty 4: Modern Warfare is one of the finest shooters ever to grace the Mac platform. It may have been a while coming, but Aspyr Media has finally brought it to market. Discover why we think this is the best game you should buy.

Stunning graphics ; rich story

Steep hardware demands ; some very challenging missions

When it comes to gaming, no genre is more populated (and popular) than the first-person shooter. Virtual war games packed with American meathead marines and clichéd enemies may have been original in the Doom era, but have become stale in the relentless...

With this in mind, you may be tempted to overlook Call Of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, especially as Mac owners are not as forgiving as our PC bretheren when it comes to a lack of originality.

First Look Review: Call of Duty 4 maps | Absolute Gadget

By Stephen Ebert (absolutegadget.com)

Last week we were at a secret location to check out the brand new downloadable map pack for Call of Duty 4 Modern Warfare. As you can guess we were licking our lips in anticipation, so, were they any good? You bet they were.

There were burnt out cars, sounds of gunfire filling the air, oil drums cast aside and even army rations to help ourselves to. But we passed on the powdered chocolate pudding, and after a brief presentation from developer Jason West, we got down to action

Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare

By Dave Stevenson (pcpro.co.uk)

Award: Recommended!

It's possible, following a year's worth of games such as Ghost Recon: Advanced Warfighter 2, that gamers might be slightly sceptical about yet another modern, realistic first-person shooter. After all, modern war doesn't afford the gravity-defying...

Absolutely brilliant. COD4 looks superb, plays amazingly and is utterly, hopelessly, sleep-deprivingly engrossing.
