Call of Duty: World at War also offers a Nazi Zombie mode that pits players in an abandoned bunker out in the middle of no where after a plane crash. Players must defend against the zombies until they are dead. There are many weapons you can use to fend off the zombies including Ray Guns, Flamethrowers, and shotguns.

Goofs:

Factual errors: When you beat the game, it tells you that 60 million people died during WWII when the actual number of deaths is about 72 million.

Quotes:

Sgt. Reznov: Burn the wheat fields! There will be no escape! SHOOT!
Private Chernov: Are we to shoot them in the back?
Sgt. Reznov: The back, the front, the head! Wherever you wish! Just so long as they are dead!

The war for the world

This is a terrific tittle. The sequel to Call of duty modern warfare brings the same gameplay with a few improvements. Using the same engine as the previous games the graphics are very similar to COD:4 the gore of the game is excellent and much more realistic than the gore in Cod:4. For example when you get a grenade thrown at you your leg may come off or your arm, this holds true for the equivalent of the 50 calibre sniper rifle in the game.

The story line of the game is just amazing, the intense action makes you feel in the game. The story line is very similar to that of Cod:4 with an intense sniper mission and a bombardment mission with an added tank mission. The added Nazi Zombie mini game is very fun to play and a welcome extra for any sequels.

I, myself are not at all upset that infinity ward decided to go back to World War 2 , in fact that is what I was hoping for considering that all the other world war 2 call of duty games were not nearly as good as COD:4 I was expecting them to go back and make a proper World War 2 game.

All in all the game is just as great as COd:4 if not better , only differences are: The WW2 setting, More intense gore, more perks, Tank playing and a little bit better graphics. recommended to buy.

Ps please don't let your self's be convinced by all the hype and criticism go and try it yourself.
