Description
World War II changed lives, changed countries and changed history. The Normandy Breakout Campaign was the most intense and dangerous action of the entire conflict, as young soldiers from America, Britain, Canada and Poland struggled with the fear and the fatal force of the Nazi army. It was a time when the world held its breath as tyranny was confronted. Bravery was tested, tactical expertise meant the difference between life and death, and battle was often up close and personal. Bold heroes were needed as Europe fell under the shadow of death. Step back into that world, if you dare, and see how you would perform in this time of crisis. The Germans are marching toward world domination — will you step up and stop this assault against the free world? Will you answer the Call of Duty?Call of Duty 3: Gold Edition thrusts you into the thrilling landscape of the second World War and gives you a bonus DVD packed with features and a token for a free map pack.

Call of Duty keeps getting better. Some of the missions are high tempo, regardless of the level. You never know what’s hiding around the corner. Ambushes are plentiful. So watch your surroundings. Those Germans are tricky. Switching to different allies throughout the game keeps you on your toes. Some of the weapons I could do without. I found myself using the enemies more over the course of the time. Since, it seems to be easy access instead of looking for ammo. The tank missions are a little better then the past games. If you like high paced; intense shooting action. This game is perfect for you.

when i bought this game i thought it would be alright . but it was better than i expected. the gameplay is intense making it feel like ur in a real battle and the online is good too. but the thing about the online is it takes a long time to find a game. i can be waiting for 10 min. trying to find a game. i hope they change that in call of duty 4. but it is a good game besides the wait time. i would reconmend it

Great FPS, although fell short of COD2. Great campaign mode with very large missions. New to this game is some hand to hand fighting sequences. Unfortunately these too fell short of expectations as they are horribly scripted and the controls are clumsy. Great Multi player action with up to 24 people per map. If you are a COD fan this is absolutely a must have.

This game has some of the best graphics for the Xbox 360. I love the Call of Duty series and this one is just another to the great hits. Like I said the graphics are very good and the controls are very easy, just like the other games. The game's storyline is easy to follow but very interesting to learn, I recommend playing the game on veteran. There is a complete arsenal of weapons to choose from, which include the German gun's after you kill them!

The career mode is great this game will probably be better than CoD4. I've beenplaying this game since it came out and it never gets old. It beats Halo and Tom clancy by a long shot. This is the best war game out right now. If CoD4 comes out and kills this game, that game will be on the top of my list!

This is a great game, good graphics, plenty of intense gameplay. Multiplayer is fun on XBOX live. Everyonce in a while an allie can get in the way, which is very annoying. If you like the old WW style games, this is a great one to have.
