I beat CoD4. The campaign is a bit shorter than I would have liked, but Infinity Ward packed it with so many amazing moments that all is forgiven. This has been the best FPS experience I have had in a while. I enjoyed it more than Halo 3, Rainbow 6, and even Half-Life 2. Sure, it is hard to compare a game like CoD4 with Half-Life 2, since they play vastly different and aim for completely different experiences, but I am coming from a pure enjoyment standpoint. CoD4 kicked my @$$! It is a roller coaster ride from start to finish.
It does basically everything right. It is a technical marvel, actually has an interesting story that had me interested in what was going on (unlike previous CoD games), teammates you actually begin to care for, fantastic audio, great voice acting, perfect controls . . . the total package.
I'm trying to beat it on Veteran difficulty now, which is going to be brutal and I can now begin to sink my teeth into its fantastic multiplayer. Looks like I won't be playing as much Halo 3 as I thought I would be, since I can see myself entertained with CoD4 for quite some time . . .
