    • Very fun! PS3 is the way to go with this game!
What can I say that hasn't already been said? It's a Call of Duty first-person shooter game. The story is excellent, polished, and wraps up a trilogy that has been filled with edge-of-the-seat action. It's continued here, and ended satisfactorily. Like Captain Price? Well he's back, and if you would have played Modern Warfare 2, then you'd know and expect that. Play the single player campaign and enjoy it for all that it has to offer to you. If you've enjoyed solo in the past, this game will not disappoint! Multiplayer - everybody's favorite and many peoples' sole reason for the purcahse of this title, offers a little more than its predecessor. The multiplayer mode is much more balanced, and now everybody can feel like they're making a contribution to the matches. If you can't rack up 25-kill streaks, then you will still do just as great shooting down UAVs, helicopters, calling-in UAVs, deploying recon drones and the like! No single class is overpowered against another class. They've really done a great job in bringing balance to a formerly unbalanced game. The only thing that is a negative is that it is still hard to understand people via the in-game chat. It would have been excellent to include a volume control in the game somewhere for chat. Thankfully, you can still mute those annoying people on your team and leave your friends un-muted. You just have to advise them to do the same thing so they can hear what you have to say over the sound of 11 year-olds screaming in high-pitched tones at how bad you suck as a gamer. If you can, however, rack up a 25-kill streak, then you'll be pleasantly surprised to learn that if you are on the Assault killstreak package, then you will receive a HIDDEN killstreak that is completely awesome - it's called the MOAB, AKA the "Mother of all Bombs." It is very similar to the tactical nuke from Modern Warfare 2, except in this game, it doesn't automatically kill everybody and end the game - it just kills the entire enemy team, and the match can continue until all objectives are met or until the time limit runs out. THAT IS AWESOME AND OVERDUE. If you like first-person shooter games, then Modern Warfare 3 is the king of that genre. And the PS3 version is MUCH better than XBL, since you know, YOU DON'T HAVE TO BUY A SUBSCRIPTION TO PLAY ONLINE!!!!!!! =) ... show more

    • great condition and game
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 for PlayStation 3 is, without a doubt, a great game with an engaging story. As a long-time fan of the Call of Duty series, I had high expectations, and this installment did not disappoint. The game's storyline is a thrilling and action-packed rollercoaster that keeps you on the edge of your seat from start to finish. It's filled with intense moments, unexpected twists, and memorable characters that make you truly invested in the narrative. The graphics and gameplay mechanics are top-notch, providing an immersive and visually stunning experience. Whether you're navigating through the chaotic battlefield or engaging in high-stakes missions, the game's attention to detail and realism are truly impressive. Multiplayer mode is another standout feature, offering countless hours of competitive and cooperative gameplay with friends or online players. The variety of maps, weapons, and game modes ensures that there's always something new to discover and master. Overall, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 is a must-play for fans of the series and anyone who enjoys action-packed shooters with a captivating storyline. It combines a great game with an engaging story, providing hours of entertainment and excitement. I highly recommend it to fellow gamers looking for an adrenaline-pumping experience. ... show more

    • Awesome.
Fans will feel right at home. And when I say right at home, I don't mean that the fan or fans in question will be overtaken by a wave of nostalgia. I mean that the fan or fans will feel like a college graduate upon sauntering home, after four years of partying and plagiarism, to cross- armed parents who are constantly charged with chagrin every time their basement- dwelling graduate is mentioned in friendly conversations. What I mean is that the fan of the COD franchise will be making a return to the same old thing with much disappointment. But it's also comforting to know that a great game hasn't been tampered with. Whatever. Plus, This game is absolutely frustrating to play if your connection is sub- par. Yes, the online gameplay is predictable, but semi- refreshing. Yes, the shotguns aren't as powerful and yes, the maps are cramped with buildings that dampen the potency of airborne kill-streaks. And yes, it feels like Modern Warfare 2 without "stopping power." So on and so on. Blah, blah, blah. It's COD. What you've seen is what you get. Whatever. But I am giving this 5 stars because I personally enjoy this game. Don't let this review be the defining factor in whether or not you decide to spend forty bucks (or however much you're going to pay). If you want a more in- depth analysis, go ahead and type "Call of Duty" into Youtube.Com's search bar. I mean, it's fun to rack up kills, but it isn't fun to be killed ten times in a row. I've only played the campaign a bit, so I can't offer any opinions on it. Though, it looks really cool so far. I love that it starts in New York. Anyway. The game is fun (far better than Black Ops in my opinion). Final thoughts: If you've played MW2, you will love this game (more or less). If you played Black Ops, the learning curve will be steeper (since Black Ops is vastly different from the COD franchise, in terms of how it handles and how it looks). 5 stars for me, personally. ... show more

    • 10X's better than Battelfield
Best new shooter game hands down. The brilliant people at Activision actually took the time to consider the user and offer them a choice of screen contrast and brightness so people who don't have 10-10 eyesight can see the objectives and enemy; Battlefield on the other hand is like playing with super dark sunglasses on in an unlit room and you can't adjust the scree so you can actually see what's going on, for example Guillotine and the Night Shift both flash back and forth between super dark scenes and super bright white blank scenes where you can't tell what's going on and it is about impossible to hit the getaway car in the time they give you, it's just not fun, its work. I digress, the graphics are sharp and story is like a Michael Bay film; fast, non-stop action with some twists along the way. I was so happy when I got this game I immediately sent back Battlefield because it was defective and too much WORK, games should be FUN! The weapons, and assignments are pretty realistic as are the sounds, all in all the guys at Activision did an outstanding job of putting together a realistic, fun and easy to use combat game, and you can actually see what the hell is going on, unlike Battlefield which I no longer need to try and muddle my way through; first game I actually gave up on. Activision should make billions off this latest installment of Call of Duty. Great job people, it picks up where it left off and its nonstop action from there on. Keep up the good work.Don't waste time or money on Battlefield you'll get frustrated, buy Call of Duty and have some FUN! ... show more

    • Awesome game!!!
MW3 is awesome, despite what other people say. My wife and I love the COD series and just recently bought this one. We played online together one night and loved it. It's easier for less experienced players to play, and that's why I love it(I have a beyond terrible time aiming). I love the weapon selection and the perks you start out with. The only reason I haven't mentioned the campaign is just because we just started playing it so I will most likely update or create another review about the campaign. My wife's song's dad played the survival mode with me and that was awesome and I'm glad he showed it to me. I definitely recommend this game to lovers of war and combat games. The COD series may be a bit repetitive, but to me, it's completely worth it. When Block Ops II comes out, we plan to get it and we will officially own every COD game for PS3. Now that we have two player online, I can say I'd rather play this game than Black Ops simply because in Black Ops, the second player does not get to keep their weapons. It goes back to the default and you have to redo everything, every time. In MW3, you keep everything, and you don't have to buy anything with points, you just simply unlock stuff. I really wish Black Ops did that, it would the playing so much more fun. ... show more

    • Its more of the same, but definitely different.
Okay, lets be straight here. If you purchased this game expecting it to be some revolutionary change from previous installments in the series, then shame on you. Also, this is by no means a 1 or 2 star game. So now that thats out of the way, we can get down to business. I'm only going to point out noticeable improvements for the sake of time. This game is much more strategic than MW2 and BO, in that there are two sets of killstreaks. Assault and Support. Assault is basically the same as any other CoD, but the support killstreaks are a game changer. They don't reset when the player dies, and they are non-offensive team-based killstreaks. This makes the game much more approachable, so that now everyone (even the not-so-good ones) can make a sincere contribution to helping the team win. Even your split screening friend who is currently 5 and 21. Also, killstreaks can be cycled, and you can assign different killstreaks to specific classes. Awesome. Next point: NO MORE SECOND CHANCE/LAST STAND. Five stars for that! Perks have been revamped completely. For instance, the quicker ADS that usually comes with Sleight of Hand Pro is now its own perk. Don't know how I feel about that one. And if you want sleight of hand, it is now in direct competition with Blind Eye (ghost/cold blooded), Scavenger, and Marathon. Weapons level up as you use them. Keep playing with the same gun and you will get perks for the weapon itself, such as reduced recoil, increased range, and even the ability to use Bling/Warlord without using one of your actual perk slots. Stuff like this makes this game COMPLETELY different. I mean, come on people. Really? The level system now goes up to 80. So you're really going to have to put in some time to get to tenth prestige this time around. They have spread the unlocks around so you always have something to look forward to. IE: You don't get the RPG until level 80. My one gripe of the multiplayer is connection at the moment. I have played a total of 12 online games, but I have attempted to get into about 30 if I had to guess. About 2 of 3 game join attempts fail. I hope I can blame the "overloaded servers." This contributes the the game's 4 star rating from me. Also, the voices just sound weird. I don't know what they did to it this time around, but man, its really bright. Also, if you don't have your headset plugged in, all you will hear is people talking. Its SO loud. I can live with that though, I can mute em. In terms of menu design, it may be the same, but it works. Familiarity greatly reduces the learning curve. Playing with a party is much easier than it was in MW2. in MW3, they essentially capitalized on the positive feedback to Treyarch's menu system. Long story short: MW3 is a combination of the best of MW, MW2, and BO. You'll see hints of each game, and then you'll remember it was something one game did right when another didn't. Campaign is exactly what you would expect from the MW series. Confusing, shallow, exciting, and emotional all at the same time. Spec Ops/Survival modes are great. I played some with a friend and we had a blast. Its great for me because I moved a long way from home, and I can still catch up with individual friends through these modes. In closing, quit whining. IW was listening to all your complaints and suggestions, and they gave you this game. Its still different enough to be considered a NEW game in the series. If you go even a LITTLE below the surface you will see that it is worthy of being called Modern Warfare 3. If there is anything I missed, or anything you would like to know to convince you to take the plunge, or save your money, feel free to ask and I will answer. ... show more
