In a nutshell: After the last game became the best selling launch title for the Xbox 360, Activision aren''t wasting any time with the follow-up as you do you bit to help out with the Normandy breakout and the liberation of France. The lowdown: Despite the new digit in the title this isn''t so much a sequel to Call of Duty 2 on the 360 and PC as it is Call of Duty: Big Red One on the PS2, Xbox and GameCube. It''s by the same developer (Treyarch), there''s no PC version and it doesn''t feature three distinct armies, but instead a recreation of the Normandy breakout. That''s not to suggest it''s short on new ideas though with much larger levels than ever before and far more vehicles to control (particularly in the Battlefield like multiplayer mode).

I first played this title on the Wii back when it came out and was impressed, although the game was very buggy (I think due to the nature of the controls). However, I enjoyed the game and as the price has reduced I decided that I would try the PS3 version, and I'm pleased I did. First thing I noticed were the graphics, which considering the age of the game now are excellent. The gameplay is fantastic, just as good as cod4 I would say having played both. I loved the variation of driving tanks, shooting anti tank guns and the amount of normal guns available. The use of the six axis in the most part is ingenious, however at times I found the standard controls to work better (particularly when rowing a boat).
Overall an excellent game, the only thing that stops it getting 5 stars is that a few of the bugs still haven't been ironed out and considering I completed it in less than a week, just playing for a few hours each evening (and I'm not the best gamer), it is a little short.
