Still, the best of the CoD franchise awaits veterans of the series in multiplayer, with deathmatch, and objective-based game types. The popular "Headquarters" mode returns, a defend-the-base scenario with frequent respawns so you're never out of the battle for long. Thirteen maps have been added to multiplayer, along with new weapons for each faction to keep things fresh. This multiplayer component caps an already stunning single-player campaign and extends the value greatly. If you can't get enough of WWII, Call of Duty 2 is the hot ticket.
