    Nope, tried demo and thought it crap, its just a mod for COD4 and shouldn't be full price. I might borro a copy from rapidshare for the single player campaign if i get bored sometime, but as for buying it definitely no.

    Here are my impressions of the demo that I'd posted on the xbox forum;

    It's not even as much fun as CoD3 and it as the same matchmaking issues (lag, getting randomly booted off – but this could get a fix after release). The weapons don't feel right (some feel like your firing paintball guns). The addition of attack dogs is poorly implemented. The 3 maps I played were all somewhere between average and boring.

    The game is actually pretty good, I clocked over a week of online play in CoD4 online, still play it when I get the urge...
    But I can honestly say I found CoD5 multiplayer to be a massive improvement.

    The single player could pass a few hours, there's got to be an interesting game there. COD4 single player was a good battle and I like WW2 games neways. Its 7GB tho :eek:

    Shocked japan lost the war considering each soldier can carry up to 300 grenades, finsihed level 1 and only fired a few shots rest of the kills were returning grenades thrown at me.


    I agree thats its a glorified mod/exp pack definitley not a full price purchase.

    i think they will really pull off alot of people with WW2 theme... AGAIN!

    It was over filled with WW2 shooters, and cod4 was a breath of fresh air.

    Why take 1 step further and 2 back?

    Imagine that zombie survival mode in cod4? Now that would have been really amazing...

    Well lets hope cod6 will be modern again.

    well..... i prefer shreding zombies with m4a1, ak47, m60, the guns that are not ancient :D

    Sorry, its just me, i am just sick of ww2 games. Thought remember Rising Dead? :D it was pure epic.

    left4dead does not look that good for me tbh. Those zombies does not feel real like in RD.

    By this logic Operation Darkness is the best WW2 game ever, for it has Zombies, vampires, Werewolves, magic and (probably) mecha hitler riding a T-Rex.

    Actually, that DOES sound like the best WW2 game ever.

    Yeah the zombie survival is actually the highlight of the game, evan tho it's only a tacked on mode at the end. Having said that, it not worth buying just for that.

    Didnt play multi.

    I wouldn't even waste my time renting this tbh, and I adore COD4. For me, its the fact that its WW2...yet again (yaawwwwnnnn). I'll happily keep playing Fallout 3 and just waiting for COD5 (the real one).

    Ah each to their own I suppose people. One reason I'll be buying it is because they have incorporated split screen into the campaign mode. Double the carnage on ze Germans!

    I might buy it in the New Year. I've still Fallout 3 and Gears of War II to play and Dead Space and Mass Effect to finish. And I've still to get Fable 2 and Left 4 Dead.
