According to Major Nelson’s Blog, it appears as though more people are playing Call of Duty 4 than Halo 3. Coincidence? I think not. I feel that Halo 3 is a very sophisticated online game and crazy fun to play. Call of Duty 4 shocked me though. I lumped this into the military game genre and overlooked it at first. I mean, how many WW2 games can they make. Well this is not a WW2 game, it’s more modern, and the graphics, online play, weapons, and ranking/achievement system are incredible. In my opinion, this game blows Halo 3 out of the water when it comes to sheer enjoyment. Unlocking weapons and perks is fun to do, and even if you reach level 55, you can go into Prestige mode and start the quests all over again. It took me literally 2 months to go from a level 29 to a level 30 in Halo 3′s ranking system. Boo. Hiss. I walked away from the game frustrated more than anything where as COD4 I don’t. It takes a monster game to knock the Halo series (see Gears of War) off their platform for the top online game. Call of Duty 4 is just that. Go get it if you don’t have it. See you guys online.
COD4 takes over Halo 3 for top online XBL game!!!

I don’t even own a 360 and even I know how awesome COD4 is. Man, Xbox had a hell of a year for first person shooters.
The game is really awesome and addicting. Artie, you really need a 360.
I’ve tried to tell as many people as possible to give it a try. Now if only it had an online coop it would be unstoppable!
Online coop would be heaven.
