Summary

A great but not perfect entry in the Call of Duty series.

We like

• Solid controls, immersive storyline, and advanced A.I.
• The developers did a remarkable job in the audio department.
• Notable texturing, particle effects, and smooth animations in the way of graphics.

We dislike

• Nonexistence of online leaderboards.
• The game doesn't really break any new ground.

(continued from previous page) ...the pin in a block of C4. Though the addition of tilt in this case is small, it is one of many that make the game more intimate and fun. The overall controls on the tilt function are well-built and responsive and add that extra touch to the game.

Now let’s talk multiplayer. Call of Duty 3 sports an expansive, satisfying multiplayer that all gamers should enjoy…almost. The multiplayer menu gives you a few different options ranging from Instant Action to Create a Match. You will also have the option of choosing match making where you can choose to join a server with a specific game type, minimum amount of players, and map.

From the start there are nine different multiplayer maps with new downloadable maps set to release in the future. Players can choose from 6 different game types, including the standard team battle, capture the flag, headquarters, and new gametype called war. Outside of that, gamers can choose from seven different class types from either the axis or allies, both set with their own types of weapons and attributes. These classes include; rifleman, heavy assault, light assault, medic, scout, support, and anti-armor.

The only draw back in multiplayer that I have is that there are no leader boards in the PS3 version. Now this was a problem when Call of Duty 2 shipped with the release of the Xbox 360 last year but months later Infinity Ward did come out with an update which fixed it, so hopefully they will do the same for the PlayStation 3.

Overall, Call of Duty III is a worth addition to the series. With a small list of launch titles available, you’re guaranteed to be satisfied with your purchase of this game. The game has a few bugs, but they detract little from this title.

With an awesome single and multiplayer experience, Call of Duty III will keep you entertained for hours.
