I'm not really into shooters but COD4 just did everything right, it's still to this day the standout game in my 360 collection and getting the Mile High Club achievement is probably the hardest effort I'll ever make for 20 Gamerscore (took me 9 hours in one sitting to finally clear that airplane).
My favourite kills are always through scenery, those heavy machine guns can practically rip through concrete much to the annoyance of my target(s). Couldn't tell you about death as that's yet to happen. (Right...).
Infinity Ward are now on my preferred developers list, looking forward to COD6 already. I'm skipping COD: World at War mainly because there are so many other great games coming out in October, but hopefully this time next year I'll be soaking my hands in a bowl of iced water in preparation for the next installment.
The only thing short of perfection in COD4 is the M4, I'm used to the M4A1 which offers fully automatic instead of 3-shot burst and I loved using an M4A1-SD in SOCOM, but I got used to it when I added the double-tap perk when using the M4.
Having praised it so much, I haven't played it in a few months due to other games (I've got 6 in the pile sitting on top of it). On the flipside it's very rare I keep a game when I've attained 1000/1000 in it, COD4 is one of the few exceptions.
It's one of my favourite 360 games and I keep dipping in to the multiplayer every now and again while other games tend to disappear off to get traded in.
i didnt know that COD 6 was infinity ward again, can't wait for that! I will probably miss COD 5 i reckon. Got plenty of games to get on with
