    Easily the best single player FPS I've ever played. Blows Halo 3 and yes, even Half Life 2 (for me at least) out of the water. My game of the year, along with Super Mario Galaxy.

    This game is really not all that great. Yeah, its ok, but it's definitely not a GOTY winnner. Now Call of Duty 4, thats a game deserving of special accolades. Great campaign +Great Multiplayer= Great Replay value and an instant success.
