My Review Of Call Of DUTY 4 On A HDTV
What I am going to start off on with my "Call of Duty 4" multiplayer review is how well the game looks on a HDTV. First of all if you have absolutely no idea how to play games in HD, then I’m going to tell you how. The first thing you do is go out to the nearest Best Buy or Circuit City and pick up a HDTV. It doesn’t have to be the biggest thing they have or the smallest, just get a mid sized or one you feel comfortable with in your house.
Then you are basically set to go from there. After plugging in your console if it be the Play Station 3 or the Xbox 360 of course. Then you are ready to play "Call of Duty 4" on your HDTV and being able to use all of the other games that you have in HD. Now for me to ramble on about the multiplayer side of Call of Duty 4. First of all if you have played any of the Call of Duty games before the multiplayer in the content part of it is going to feel a lot different but the controls are probably all the same except for a couple of buttons such as the directional pad.
If you didn’t know before, the aiming with pulling the gun up to your face and having it in the middle of the screen is still there. Also the multiplayer takes a kind of role playing style to the game. As you kill and go through your multiplayer matches you gain experience. Some games only give you five experience per kill while others give you ten and even fifty in some game modes. That is the thing with Call of Duty 4, is how much variety there is between the game modes. You start out at level one only being able to play free for all which is every man for him self thing and team death match.
As you level up you get to be able to play more and more different game varieties. Some being domination which is capture the nodes and hold them for points. The good and faithful head quarters is back which has both teams running to the point and trying to capture it before the other team does with it moving around. There are also hardcore game modes which takes all of your heads up display off and makes you much more weaker dieing with just one or two shots.
The hardcore game modes can be fun but I like my heads up display and don’t like parting from it. So the highest level you can get to is 55 once your there you have all the guns but maybe not everything unlocked for every gun. You see when you kill people with your gun you unlock challenges which unlocks things such as red dot sights or silencers for your gun also different camos for the gun.
Another thing you can do at level 55 is go into prestige mode which takes you back down to level 1 and have to work your way back up to 55. Why do that? Because for one it gives you a better reason to play and you get a little icon next to your name that says you have been 55 already and that you are not a noob. That is just a small part of Call of Duty 4's multiplayer and you will have to check the rest out for yourself. But by far, this game is at it's best if viewed on a HDTV monitor.
