I loved CoD4. I loved CoD: Finest Hour. But remembering CoD:FH, I also remembered Big Red One, the copy of FH with extra content. If you play only single player, then great, enjoy this game. But don't buy it for multiplayer. You will miss absolutely nothing by sticking to CoD4. See, I had hoped that Activision wouldn't make a CoD4 copy. I remember a joke made in a magazine that showed the CoD4 cover with a 5 written over the 4. Well, turns out they did that - the box art is even nearly identical to 4. This game is a waste of money unless you want gamerscore or only play single player. But even the single player is so annoying that I just wanted to break the disc over wasting the money on it.
In short, if you're truly a fanatic over the CoD series, then sure, buy it. But if not, this is not worth $60, especially if you already have CoD4, because.. well, this is CoD4, only in the pacific theater of war, during WWII.
