 Another great CoD offering! August 25, 2008
There is not much left to be said for the Call of Duty series, on any platform or in any manifestation. Call of Duty 3 for the PS2 is no exception. I was a little bit skeptical at first, having been so used to the first two offerings on the same platform. The gameplay changed somewhat, but in most cases for the better, and I was able to very quickly adapt to the new format.
One of the biggest factors for me in choosing a game is it's replay value. I've never found that to be an issue with the CoD series, and CoD3 does not disappoint on this level. Granted, it did take me a while to get used to this game, but once I got the hang of the new controls (very minor changes), the stories, graphics, action and overall game easily drew me back for multiple go-arounds.
The nicest change I think they have incorporated is the ability to do what the enemy AI was always able to do: throw back grenades! Yes, now you too, the player, can grab grenades that are close to you and fling them back towards your foe. It was one thing if neither side could, but it always seemed strange to me that the enemy would have this ability and the player did not.
One of the most intriguing features of the content of the game is the inclusion of the Polish and Canadian forces. We've probably all seen and played those games that let us alternate between American and British forces (and often Russian, too). For the first time that I have seen (definitely a first for the CoD series), you can hop into a tank with a Polish crew, and fight with the Canadian infantry. The American and British forces are there as well, either with the 29th Infantry (the old 'blue & gray' division), or the British SAS.
Since the action is contained in one section of the Normandy invasion, the Falaise Gap, you are able to play as each of these groups in their separate missions to disrupt and destroy the enemy operations. Of course, there are multiple characters to get attached to, some for sheer humor value, and others that seem to have some historical basis.
Overall, this game keeps the great Call of Duty tradition alive, and sets the standard for WWII FPS (first person shooter) games, and really for FPS games in all genres. This is a must-have for CoD fans, WWII gaming afficionados, FPS enthusiasts, and anyone who is looking for a superb quality game at a great price. Enjoy!
Call Of Duty 3-The best war game ever! June 8, 2008
In my 11-year-old opinion i think that Call Of Duty 3 is the best war game ever,because the game has the best graphics I'VE(notice the capitals in i've.) ever seen.It takes place in Saint Lo World war 2.It has hero songs that sound totally AWESOME!!!You get to play as different nationalitys like the French,the Americans,and the Polish.You get to drive Vehicles and play in a tank.You get to experience what war heros went through to defeat the Nazis.You get to play in different skill levels like easy,medium,and hard.When you beat the game you are accessed to the stats of the people you play with and Axis and Allies' guns.At the last level you get to play with Bazookas and Flaks.Like i said,i think Call of Duty 3 is the best war game EVEEEEEEER!!!!!

GREAT WAR GAME! November 12, 2007

This game is awesome! The story is based on actual combat. The actors actually discussed the game with Veterans! Guys who were there! The graphics are great, you get to not only run around killing Germans, but you get to drive tanks, jeeps, etc. This game is awesome! Make sure at the end you watch the stories of the Veterans who shared their experiences with the game makers and role players. Today is Veterans day, and I am proud to be an American and thank the Men and Women who have served and gave the ultimate sacrifice so I be able to chill and play a cool game like this one! Semper Fi!

I enjoy playing video games, particuarly military style games. I do not consider myself an excellent player by any means. With that being said, this game will deffinitely please the novice player as well as the experienced one. The game has many save points so that if you are killed you can pick up from where you left off without having to go back to the beginning. I truely enjoyed both the graphics and sound....not to mention the cut scenes where the acting was very good. I would highly recommend this game.
