Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare

Call of Duty 4 moves away from the standard three country-specific campaign style, and allows the plot to play through more like a film style plot with interlaced story lines from the perspective of the player as Paul Jackson, a member of the United States Marines Corps 1st Force Recon and "Soap" MacTavish, a member of the British 22 SAS Regiment. There is also a variety of cameo-style missions where you play as various other soldiers such as an AC-130 Spectre Gunship gunner, or as one part of a two-man sniper team behind enemy lines in a flashback-style mission.

The story is told from a perspective of a British 22 Special Air Service Regiment operative in Russia and an American 1st Force Recon operative in the Middle East. The game also features a flashback mission set 15 years ago in Pripyat, Ukraine, an abandoned city within the Chernobyl Zone of Alienation, which features a younger incarnation of Captain Price from 22 SAS Regiment, the only character to appear in both of the first two games of the Call of Duty series.

Call of Duty 4 is a great single player game but it also has amazing multiplayer games. There are over 12 different online modes from free for all to team deathmatch, also there is a king of the hill map and sabotage mode where 1 team takes a bomb to enemy points and blows them up while the other team defends the points. When I played this game from the first time I was amazed on its graphics and game play. It’s easy to learn how to play even for noobs.
