Review Summary

Call of Duty 4 Modern Warfare is an intense and addictive shooting game. The game opens in a training camp where you will be taught the basic control features, shooting at targets. And afterwards to be trained on navigating and following orders. Then you will be on your first mission on a huge tanker. Call of Duty 4 is about a chaotic war which occurs in various parts of Russia and the Middle East. The action is very intense, enemies armed with artificial intelligence and a good eye. However how many enemies you destroy, new ones will pop up. This can be frustrating and will keep the tension going. In Arcade Mode you will earn points and multipliers. Every type of killing will earn you a set amount of points, so multiple kills will bring in more, as will a knife kill. The more enemies you eliminate, the larger your multiplier is. Every stage has a time limit. The special effects make Call of Duty 4 Modern Warfare look like a Hollywood action movie, the scenery and fireworks are amazing. The game never bores you; you will be more and more engrossed. On the other hand the graphics aren’t that good, they look uneven. The sound is good, though. The game is loud with gun fire, explosions, yelling, and the soundtrack. All combined to give a high level of excitement.
