![]() Call of Duty 2 Developed By: ActivisionReview By: Archangel Written on: Saturday, June, 17th, 2006 at 12:23:57 am Rating: 90% Site: here System: PC Sound 10/10 Bullets whiz, grenades explode, all well and good. The best part though, is the dialogue. Squad mates will call insults, report enemy movement, and report casualties. Even better, the Germans do the same thing and, as a German speaker, I can vouch for the fluency of their speech. Gameplay 9/10 Most excellent, standard FPS controls, really don\'t need improvement. The HUD has been removed for realism, a wise choice in my opinion. If you\'re shot, your vision gets red and you need to duck for cover a la Halo, another excellent feature. My only real qualms is the grenade indicator. I know, it saves lives, but it does feel a bit tacky after a while. Single Player 8/10 It\'s about the little things, like the confrontation with the German sniper, the flies buzzing over dead cows as you work your way through the bocage, and the visceral horror of the Point Du Hoc level. It\'s great, it\'s bloody, and it\'s done much too quickly. Multiplayer 10/10 Multiplayer is pretty simple to start, as with most FPSes. It\'s mod friendly, too, and some of the fan maps have been pretty interesting to say the least. Generally speaking, one statistic speaks droves about CoD2\'s multiplay: CoD2 logs a third more hours than BF2. 3.8 million hours ought to say something about the game. Specs 8/10 Basics won\'t do you any good here, but it only takes up 3 gigs of space. More than your average game, but not a memory whore like some games. If you\'ve got a decent system, you\'ll be able to handle it in a pinch. 10+9+8+8= 45 45*2=90 Bottom Line: Not your average WWII shooter. Good graphics, good sound, good interface, but it retreads some old ground and could use a longer single-player campaign. Screenshots write a review
