It is a feckin great game, been through 4 times now Finaly managed to wait long enough through the credits to get the extra mission
It's odd, but until the last couple of missions I hardly bothered with flashbangs, then I suddenly found them extremely handy...
I think it's a big misconception that realism would make for a fun game. In certain genres it can work (flight or racing sim, or sports titles for example), but shooters are definitely better when they AREN'T realistic.
Apparently they're going to either make an expansion for COD4, or a completely new game. Which would be awesome; they could simply interchange stories, characters....same game engine and I'd pay another 50 bucks to play it. Multiplayer is pretty much awesome too.
Rank 29 and I just started last Friday. Has anyone had to block or otherwise make file complaints against other players yet?
