Comments: After getting a hankering for a shooting game, Mr. Monster decided to pick up Call of Duty 3 for the Playstation 2. After playing the previous Medal of Honor series on the PS2 (except the new Vanguard) I wanted to try a different WWII game and the Call of Duty series had some good marks and the COD 3 game was available for only $15 used at the local Game Crazy store.
The positive aspect of COD 3 I liked compared to say Medal of Honor (Frontline, Rising Sun, European Assault) is that it actually got my adrenaline pumping with hectic non-stop action and squad members fighting with you. You're mostly running and gunning with a few jeep driving, tank driving and some manned gunning.
Mostly you're running through trenches, clearing out homes, or stopping German assault through the Normandy campaign. The life bar is non-existant, you sustain shots and you have to duck out of cover to regain health. Now this keeps you in the fight longer unless you get surrounded and you cannot regain health.
If you're looking for action at a budget and still on a PS2, COD 3 is a good game to buy. I'm looking forward to getting COD 2: Big Red One now as well and for a change of pace maybe the Brotherhood in Arms games as well.
Score: 3.5 out of 5
