CoD4 SP Setting the Bar

CoD4 has been out almost two weeks now and I've been playing it nonstop.  I started with multiplayer ranking up to get guns, perks, skins etc and am currently rank 50.  I would be 55, however, while scrimming you don't rank up.  Anyway yesterday night I stumbled across Epleptic Gaming's review of CoD4 (which is amazing) and decided to try my hand at CoD4.  After loading up the game and starting on Hard (after all I'm pro of course) I found myself hooked.  After finishing the first few missions I called it quits and picked up where I left off last night tonight.  I have to give the guys at EG credit when they said the game didn't have the whole hero feeling, but rather left the player feeling like a bug ready to get squashed I didn't know what to think.  Boy, they couldn't have been anymore right.



I can't even begin to explain how many times I thought I was going to die.  How many times I rushed in ad got my ass kicked.  How many times wave after wave of enemies came at me and I had to switch through 5 weapons just to take them all out.  The intensity, realism, and suspense the story brought on the player is outsanding.  It captured the player's feelings and kept you playing mission after mission just to find out the next part of the story.  *SPOILER ALERT* In the last mission at the very end I thought Soap was going to die, but when I got that ******* pistol from Captain Price I nailed all three of those ******* ******** in the face.  My only regret is that Price died, like WTF?! HES ******* CAPTAIN PRICE!!!!



Overall CoD4 has set the NEW STANDARD in SP with gameplay and a story that captivates the player.  MP  keeps the player hooked with the ranking system to keep them playing for one more rank.  As EG said in their show, if you're a CoD hater, or don't feel like giving the game another chance BUY IT.  You would have to be a complete FPS hater not to BUY CoD4.  I'm out here, going back to rank to 55 and beat SP on veteran.
