Call of Duty 4

 

Hours Played: At least 48
Progress: Complete Single Player Mode, ~ level 20 in Prestige Mode 1 on Multiplayer

If you have yet to have the pleasure of playing this game, then I truly feel sorry for you. This game simply ranks very high on the list of the best games ever made. I have sunk about 2 days worth of time into the online mode alone.

The main story of this game is fairly short, in the order of about 6 hours of gameplay. It features some pretty good missions, amazing graphics, some spectacular levels, and a very badass plane that you get to fly for one mission.

Multiplayer is where this game shines. Particularly on the 360 and the PC (if you have a $3000 machine). I exclude the PS3 from this only because online voice communication is not standard, much less common, and more complicated on the PS3 version than the other two platforms. You earn new guns, abilities, and missions quite regularly, so you’re always playing to unlock something. When you reach the top of the rank ladder, you have the option of giving up just about everything you’ve earned, except your stats, for a Prestigious icon. I did, good times. ^_^

Anyways, it’s needless to say that this game is an:

11/10

And that it deserves a:

DA BLUE UNICORN!!!
