Hands-on with Call of Duty 3

Let's cut the crap right off the bat. Call of Duty 2 was an amazing launch game for Xbox 360, and if you're reading this article then you're already familiar with where the series came from, what it did for the launch of 360 just a year ago, and how amazing the franchise has evolved over the years. We don't need to waste your time explaining what the franchise is all about. If you aren't familiar with the world of Call of Duty, click here before continuing. For everyone else, let's get down to business…

"The big news with COD3's multiplayer is that it's now class-based and features vehicles, Battlefield style. There are a number of classes available, from light and heavy infantry to sniper, antitank, and medic. This merely affects your initial weapons loadout, since you can pick up other players' weapons when they die to change it up. Each class has some special abilities, as well. As the sniper, we were able to sight in the enemy's flag base with our binoculars to call in an artillery strike--and then we died laughing when the kill list lit up with the name of nearly every member of the other team. "

A titbit about the class system from Gamespot.

and dammm i can't WAIT for the PS3!! ahhh

" As another quick gameplay note, the PS3 version was making basic use of the tilt functionality, having players melee attack by snapping their right hand forward in a elbowing motion. Team representatives said that PS3 tilt functionality would be improved in the final months before release, adding in the ability to lean around cover by simply tilting the controller from right to left, something that the Wii version is also currently making use of. "

jeez gaming is going to be such a better experience! and i'm also wondering if this 1st gen title will look just like 360's 2nd gens??? hmmm... i hate fanboyism, but this article is an advantage to ps3.

So you are saying that the "Tilt functionality" makes it "such a better experience" than the 360 version of the game?

Call of Duty 3 is coming out on the xbox 360 and playstation 3, as well as the xbox 1 and i think its coming out on the PS2.

'a somewhat reluctant demonstration of the PS3 code bring us back to present-day battles with a jolt.with a painful framerate and only rudimentary lighting and shaders in place, the game looks cold and flat next to the gritty bombast of it's 360 counterpart, and far from ready for a november launch.
It's clear that it will be a race to the wire, in uncharted territory, to get it to match the 360's performance'

Shaolin Monks is a forgotten gem. I would love to see a new one, or a remake of the old.

That game was actually goated. It was the first time ever that I actually tried to get good at a fighting game. Unfortunately the online connection was so dogshit it made it hard to enjoy and eventually I gave up. Haven't really played much fighting games since.

The Industry Needs To Modernize These 6 Fantastic Classics

The Simpsons: Hit and Run, The Legend of Dragoon, and Chrono Trigger would benefit substantially from a modern remake.

The Xenosaga trilogy, the Wild Arms games, Xenogears, Parasite Eve, Dino Crisis, Suikoden. The Warriors game I know nothing about but it looks interesting. Anybody can do a list of games they want to see get modernized I would lose my shit if Namco brought the Xenosaga trilogy to modern consoles.
