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 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 thrusts you into the thrilling landscape of the second World War. This latest addition to the popular Call of Duty franchise features all-new close-quarters combat, environmental physics and a host of ways for you to take down your enemies. Vivid graphics immerse you into a realistic world, where special tactics must be employed against your enemy if you expect to forge a path to victory. Intense, team-based multiplayer options offer multiple-occupancy vehicle combat, so climb aboard a tank or Jeep with your friends and team up to take down the Nazi forces once and for all.

Rated 4 out of 5 stars
Good game
I bought this game recently and it was worth the money. Graphics are solid although nothing remarkable. (standard port over). I enjoyed the campaign, really well done, feels like your really in the action. Multiplayer is fun but some of the maps are too small for my tastes. Not enough options to change the experience much but still fun. Its a good title worth the money, looking foward to cod 4 to see a real improvement in ps3 visuals.

Reluctant to Say Great
OK, maybe I am too used to playing Resistance: Fall of Man but this game did not live up to my hopes and fond memories of the Call of Duty series. The first Call of Duty game I owned was Finest Hour, one of the best games ever. I like it because you could play as the Russians, British, or Americans, and it was pretty good for the PS2. After I purchased the Big Red One which I thought was not quite as good because of the shorter campaign and the fact that you could only play as an American soldier. I missed on Call of Duty 2 and a few days ago I saw this on sale for $30 so I went for it. Popped it, and first tried the campaign. It wouldn't work on Easy because it kept freezing on the intro so I had to quit the game by pressing the PS button and start a new campaign on Normal. The campaign was alright and lacked the fun and exciting feeling of previous games in the series. After I tried the online play which felt really mediocre compared to RFoM and with the connection problems and bugs almost made me return it. But once I got past all that and got out onto the battlefield, I had a lot of fun, blasting away with tanks and mowing down enemies, driving away in motorcycles, sniping from house windows, and going head on with your machine gun. However, the maps were not the best and lacked the feeling the other Call of Duty maps invigorated. Also, the environments were non destructible, so when you shot a tank shell at a house it looked like it bounced off, instead of like in RFoM when it actually takes out the side of the building. Overall: I give it a B+, because it is still Call of Duty and is on a much higher quality than many other games out there and will still be a fun experience no matter what.

great game, sub par graphics
i've played all of the cod games. this one is just as good as the first 2 in terms of game play. great game concept and fun to play. but you can definately tell the game is simply a pc port. the graphics were not made for hdtv resolution. this game renders at 720p, although it says on the box it supports 1080i, which is most likely for tvs that only support that res as my tv supports all resolutions, but this game renders at 720p. in many cases the graphics look horrible especially the opening cut scenes. bleh. don't get me wrong 720p is fine for games. oblivion looks awesome at 720p. it's not the resolution of 720p that makes the detail in this game bad. it's that, although it reanders at 720p, the artwork that comprises he textures in the game were not designed at that res, so the game looks etchy and scratchy to the point of annoyment. great game though. i can't wait for games that are made specifically for the ps3 to finally be released later this fall although rfom is a true 1080p (desgined for 1080p and rendering at 1080p)
