The GameDaily One-Minute Review

Call of Duty 3 blasts its way onto the Xbox 360 with a white knuckled intensity that makes previous shooters seem tame by comparison. Almost everything in this game explodes, sending plumes of smoke and fire reaching to the sky, and when the player isn't barraged with grenades and tank fire, they'll be dodging thousands of bullets, all the while scores of soldiers (both Nazi and Allies) push their way up and down the battlefields, slaughtering the opposition or slumping into shallow graves. The 24-person multiplayer mode continues the fight, and the inclusion of tanks, bikes, and jeeps adds to the death match and capture the flag experience by giving players the type of variety found in EA's Battlefield series. Combined with the single player campaign, Call of Duty's online play rounds out a very impressive package, one that throttles the senses and shakes the soul.
