Call of Duty 3!

The latest in the long-running WWII series continues once more with CoD3, but will the latest WWII game succeed?

First Impressions: Whenever possible, we try to give our loyal website viewers the most video footage and most in depth unbiased reviews imaginable. Part of that development is our "initial impressions" where we offer up our first impressions of the title that we are playing.

This gives our website visitors more of clear understanding of what to first expect out of the game when they initially pop it into their consoles.

If you scroll to the bottom of the page in the Rent vs. Buy section of the review and do not see the "final impressions" assessment then it's safe to say that you are reading our initial impression of the game. Once the final impression is up, there will be no further video or review done to that particular title.

Final Impressions: The final impression is just that, our completed breakdown and overall thoughts on the game based off of our entire game playing time.

You can locate the final impressions assessment in the "Rent vs. Buy" section of the review (always located at the very end of all of our reviews). Here you will be able to read our final thoughts on the title and also see any potential grade changes that were made to the game as well (higher or lower). Should a grading change occur, it will be clearly noted with the previous grade, the new grade, and why the change occurred.

Although this approach is more time consuming and requires many more man hours, our entire goal has always been to provide the best and completely unbiased reviews possible and we feel that the inclusion of the Initial Impressions and Final Impressions sections will give you a better view of what to expect from a new game.

All that we ask in return is for you to continue to support Krakrabbit.com by visiting the site and letting others know about our cause. Together we can supply our fellow gamers with the most impartial information so they can make an informed decision on whether to buy or rent this particular title.

I Thought I Killed You: Once again you will play as allied forces from America, and Britain, this time including the likes of the Canadian and Polish too, battling against German Nazi forces in World War II.

The story isn't original by any means, and the gameplay follows the same tune. Once again you will use classic weapons like the M14 and the Mosin-Nagant, with "Potato Masher" grenades also thrown into the mix.

The gameplay in CoD3 follows the same formula of moving along linear missions, killing various Nazis on the way to your destination.

The gameplay in CoD3 isn't necessarily bad, but you will be very familiar with the game in a bad way. You will undoubtedly get tired of the "kill army of Nazi alone" gameplay.

Comrades In War: The biggest chance in CoD3 is the inclusion of multiplayer action. You and others online will be able to play as either the allied forces or the German Nazi in a couple garden-variety modes.

The multiplayer gameplay in CoD3 is good, but isn't anything that will revolutionize multiplayer gaming. The inclusion of vehicles help give the game a more realistic feel, and being able to grab a tank and then load up your teammates is very satisfying.

Rent vs. Buy: Call of Duty 3 is by no means a "brand new" game, and you will have trouble finding distinct differences between CoD3 and CoD2. The multiplayer is quite impressive. And will keep you happy for a little while after you have finished the main campaign.

If you are a World War II nut, or you just have to have the latest and greatest you can't go wrong with CoD3, although, if you can do without the latest Call of Duty, CoD2 is a great choice.
