Call of Duty 3 - updated hands-on

PS3 Preview | Call of Duty 3

We've already previewed Call of Duty 3 pretty extensively, but we recently had an opportunity to take a longer look at the PlayStation 3 version in action. Scheduled to ship alongside the system on its Nov. 17 launch, it looks more or less identical to its Xbox 360 cousin, but there are a few touches unique to Sony's shiny new monster. We were told, for instance, that the PS3's multiple processors make it easier to keep the animation from becoming slow or choppy (although we were then told ... » Read More

Call of Duty 3 - updated hands-on

PS3 Preview | Call of Duty 3

The Call of Duty franchise has already defined what a next-gen first-person shooter should be, winning FPS battles since the day the Xbox 360 launched. Activision and Treyarch won't be happy until they win the whole darn war, and showed us their firepower in a next-gen hands-on gameplay session at Activision headquarters in Santa Monica, CA. It's easy to see this series is hitting its stride. The people behind Call of Duty know that we want intense, memorable scenarios filled with carnage. We ... » Read More

As of July, Call of Duty 2 was the most popular game on Xbox Live, and there's a lot more scrutiny on the sequel that is being released for both 360 and PS3. Activison isn't shying away from the piercing eyes, however. The company invited us to Paris, France to get our hands on the single and multiplayer - despite technical glitches and the threat of all-consuming jetlag ruining the experience. The good news is that ... » Read More

Call of Duty 3 - impressions

PS3 Preview | Call of Duty 3

Call of Duty 2 is undeniably hot right now. Months after it became the 360's top launch title, it's still the number one game on Xbox Live. Can lighting strike twice? We know 360 gamers are hoping it can. But the PlayStation 3's release is also coming up and the situation is, in many ways, similar. If you're planning to buy one of those beasts, you're no doubt already wondering - what games am I going to pick up? The undying appeal of the World War II shooter, a series you're pretty sure you ... » Read More

Back to the trenches

PS3 Preview | Call of Duty 3

It was a cold day in France. The rain was beating down something harsh, the enemies had an advantageous position, and we had one mission: get to the top of the hill. The problem was, for the most part, we were in a wide open valley with very little cover, and the enemies already occupied the few higher altitude positions there ... » Read More
