Fairly short, nothing spectacular but it is familiar and builds on a very good storyline that CoD fans will appreciate.


Graphics: (3/5 stars)

It literally looks like a copy paste of MW2. I don't mind the graphics, although I think it is a step back from Black Ops as to me, Black Ops was a more polished game with better visuals, better looking guns, and much better sound effects. Grenades actually sounded like grenades in Black Ops, not compressed air.


Online Gameplay: (4/5 stars)

Seems much more improved over Black Ops and MW2. The hit detection is wonderful even on a not-so-perfect connection, you don't have to worry about your hit-markers not doing its job. So far most of the actual weapons and classes seem pretty balanced, which is surprising.. although they made up for it by making Support killstreaks insanely overpowered.

That is my only gripe so far, is that EVERYONE virtually runs Support, because they are easy to get and are on par with the Assault/Strike killstreaks. Knife-lunging seems to be back but not too terribly like MW2. Game seems very fast paced in all modes, very little camping so far.

I love the system of leveling both yourself and your guns, as this will make a wide variety of what people actually use, instead of FotM guns from patch to patch. Although this will make it more difficult for newbies to join later on, when everyone else has superior weapons.


Overall I give MW3 4/5 stars. Much more improved in multiplayer where it counts, although I wish they had stretched their limitations with better graphics and sounds.
