    Modern Warefare 2, despite the plethora of flaws it'll always have a special spot.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,249 ✭✭✭Scody94


    mine was the original COD :o

    and ive gotten everyone thats come out to date except the Ds ones
    and im gonna be honest i love everyone of them and i think im a rare one that dosnt complain about any of them lol


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,732 ✭✭✭Magill


    Played the orginal but sure don't remember any of it. Played a bit of CoD2 public back in the day, nothing major, always played second fiddle to other games.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,137 ✭✭✭Balfie


    World at War for me...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 936 ✭✭✭Tommy_NDX


    The original pc one converted me from medal of honor but cod 4 was my first online game.

    My xbox was COD3 bundled edition. . .terrible terrible game, put me off COD altogether (in the end it has just put me off treyarch). It took 6 months of listening to people blather about COD4:MW before I said I'd give it a lash, so glad I did, still the best of the lot!












    My initial response to the title question was going to be sega bass fishing on the dreamcast

    Mine was Call of Duty: Finest Hour on the Gamecube. Not quite the first CoD, but a hell of a game. The first few levels were Enemy at the Gates in a video game.
    Didn't buy another until W@W.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,219 ✭✭✭Lab_Mouse


    CoD 2 on the pc.played everyone since.Only switched to console gaming when my graffixs card crapped itself.But have got a new one so will be playing on pc.Mind you my son will buy any more games for the PS3


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,197 ✭✭✭✭Witcher


    First was Finest Hour back in 2004, fired it up on the PS3 about 6 months ago and the online servers were still up and active:pac:

    First online cod was COD3, loved playing it for the first month or two after launch when there were only a few people playing it on PS3 and you would see the same people doing the rounds and get to know them.

    All lost now with anonymous 12 year olds mouthing down their mic acting tough.:rolleyes:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,650 ✭✭✭✭minidazzler


    COD4 for me, but didn't have online capability at the time. First online version was MW2 which I only got last October.

    the original COD, cos I'm old. first online was briefly with COD4 then properly with MW2

    Original COD on PC, pumped almost 1000 hours into that game

    Likewise, back when the game needed skill.
    Still plenty of servers running, the rifle only ones were especially epic.

    Played the original COD on PC but never online. COD4 was my first multiplayer COD.


  • Hosted Moderators Posts: 23,262 ✭✭✭✭beertons


    MW2


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,340 ✭✭✭yimrsg


    I thought I had only a few but after some research that was a severe underestimate.

    • Call of duty:finest hour. Vaguely remember this. Never played it or big red one online.
    • Call of duty:big red one. I remember even less of this one.
    • Call of duty:2. lots of explosions and limitless enemies that you had to grind past. I think this or 3 was the one you started as a russian without a gun. Multiplayer was pretty poor, think it was 8 or 12 players max.
    • Call of duty:3. Forgetable campaign but really good multiplayer. The class based system was great fun and if you've never jumped over Eder dam in a sidecar chased by a gun car whilst trying to cap the flag I feel sorry for you.
    • Call of duty:4. I still vividly remember my highest killstreak of 22 with the g3. Closest the series came to perfection. Some of the best multiplayer levels were in here.
    • Modern Warfare 2. It's got it's flaws but still was and is a unique game that draws people back only for hackers to ruin all those good memories.
    • Black Ops: Middle of the road for the series. Some good, some bad but ultimately never going to develope any of the nostalgia of IW's work.
    At least if I ever come across bitter about COD then I have perfect reasons to be critical.

    I hope Magill is better at doing 30 page reports than explaining what he means in a single post.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,340 ✭✭✭yimrsg


    Being the best in the world at a certain time and place is still best in the world.

    Disparaging a game's players is a pointless operation. Arguing there is less or more skill in games/sports/etc. nowadays versus yesterday is an exercise in futility.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 248 ✭✭DanTheMan91


    Call of Duty 4 was my first, and I still regard it as the best in the series, only just ahead of World at War.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,831 ✭✭✭Lucutus


    Where's the 'Medal of Honor: Allied Assault' poll option?

    I would but i cant be arsed :D I Shouldn't even be on boards ! I've to get this 30 page report finished for today !! I will say tho, that back in CoD 1 and even early cod 2, the skill level would be comparable to a drunken christmas tennis ralley on wii sport.

    It was suppose to be a direct response to his post "Likewise, back when the game needed skill.". Implying that games like CoD4 and Blackops require no skill... however from my point of view (Without the rose tinted glasses that people recall older games with) i remember how low the skill levels were in the old school days of CoD 1 + 2, therefore it required a lot less skill to be considered "GOOD" at the game back then that it does in todays games (CoD4 for PC and Black ops for Console).

    Sorry for not making it clear what i was going on about :)

    Anyway, im sorry for going offtopic (Again).

    You missed the point completely.

    Player skill at a particular game is the crux of the matter.

    If you were to contribute something more substantial rather than one line ambiguous posts that would at least bring a conclusion to going off topic rather than have it dragged out.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,320 ✭✭✭v3ttel


    Played CoD on the PC, along with CoD2.

    Bought CoD with the Xbox360. Played an awful lot of CoD: Modern Warfare on the LAN at college on the PC and on Xbox live. Absolutely loved that game.

    Call of Duty 3 for me, loved the campaign at the time despite a lot of people hating it


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,778 ✭✭✭Sod'o swords


    Original COD for a bit, but only single player. It was COD2 that I finally got broadband and put endless hours into... Gave up on PC after WAW.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,958 ✭✭✭Mr. Rager


    How am I the only one who started playing on Black Ops first? I'm so lonely right now :pac:

    My first CoD was CoD3 on the PS2, though the game that really got me into the series was CoD4 on PC.

    WaW was my first CoD game. Infact I didnt play computer games since my teens until my girlfriend bought me a xbox with WaW which was only just released at the time back in 08. We broke up early 09.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,672 ✭✭✭ScummyMan


    Roads to Victory on d'oul PSP! Years ago, no online even!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,732 ✭✭✭Magill


    I think a better question would be "What was the first CoD game you played online!"

    I'd say alot of people played hte orginal but never really got online till cod4/mw2.

    4. Cod7 Black ops
    5 Cod1 Finest hour only last week
    6. Cod2 Big red one only last week

    Offline Single player 1st time
    Probably played them all when they came out first one after another, but cant remember them.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 15,676 ✭✭✭✭herisson


    COD 3 on the wii of all things :o didnt like it at all

    thankfully i have upgraded and now play black ops and world at war on the 360

    still a total noob though :p


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 901 ✭✭✭ChunkyLover_53


    I had played Medal of Honor on PS1 & PC which I eventually spurred me on to buy COD & United Offensive.

    I sank hours into UO online. I remember an epic map which was a village on a hill overlooking a trench system. Russia vs Germans 32 v 32 IIRC

    The rank system was in its infancy then & you'd gain rank during the game an Artillery Barrage was the highest perk & was deafening. Friendly Fire on was carnage.

    Also there were Tactical Servers that I played on COD:WAW that was good for a giigle, the Admin wouldn't let anyone run & gun unless you were assaulting a bunker or house.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 128 ✭✭Demosthenes


    The first one on PC, bundled with United Offensive the expansion pack....best online game i ever had on pc


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,416 ✭✭✭✭gimli2112


    Apparently I played the first one. I don't remember any of it but just looked at the box artwork online and thought "I've played that one"

    First online was MW2. Still remember being shredded by akimbo models from about 50 yards away on Wasteland:eek:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,839 ✭✭✭✭Snake Plisken


    I think I played COD 1,2,3 single player, but the one that got me hooked on MP and still the best game in my eyes is WAW, loved the maps such as castle Dome, Airfield etc still throw it on every now and again and still find it very enjoyable, just wish treyarch would throw some of the maps in to Blops mappack releases


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 29,071 Mod ✭✭✭✭Podge_irl


    Pumped thousands of hours into the original COD and UO.

    Was rather good at it, though I'm beyond ****e at the more modern ones.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 308 ✭✭EmacB


    Started playing the original! gave it another lash a few months back its actually fairly good!

    Online was really great too it would probably still be a good bit of fun.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 22 Gib0ns


    COD2


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,721 ✭✭✭Kells...
