Two years ago we finally saw the culmination of the acclaimed Modern Warfare series by Infinity Ward, leading many fans to wonder what the studio’s next step would be and how would it compare to the name that put Call of Duty where it is. Now, they the are back with Call of Duty: Ghosts, a world where weapons of mass destruction are used to reshape the world, leaving only a handful of elite soldiers to find out what happened and stop it from happening again. - PSLS

First next-gen game review! Can't believe it is already here.

xPhearR3dx3815d ago

First? Pretty much all major outlets have published their reviews. I can believe it's here, it was only a year ago when we saw the last one.

Foolsjoker3815d ago

I didn't mean that this particular article was world's first, but that CoD Ghosts is the first next-gen title to be reviewed.

xPhearR3dx3815d ago

@Foolsjoker

Actually Assassins Creed 4 and Battlefield 4 was.

Foolsjoker3815d ago

I believe those were played on current gen consoles, but I could be mistaken.

xPhearR3dx3815d ago

@Foolsjoker

Nope. There were a few sites that reviewed the PS4 versions. Kotaku did ACIV on PS4 I believe, and I know Eurogamer did BF4 on PS4. There's more out there, just don't remember off the top of my head.

Foolsjoker3815d ago (Edited 3815d ago )

Eurogamer reviewed the 360 version of Battlefield 4.

"We've only played the Xbox 360 version, but it's fair to say that it just can't cope."

Kotaku reviewed the PS3 version of ACIV

"It's a marvelous-looking game, on both current-generation systems (I reviewed the PS3 version) and on next-gen consoles."

xPhearR3dx3815d ago

@Foolsjoker

I think you should look again.

It wasn't Kotaku, it was Edge. Sorry about that.

There's two PS4 reviews. Doing a quick Google search and you can find more.

I did, and I don't see where they say they completed the PS4/XBO version. At most, all I see is a 'tested' at best to justify mislabeling a review. Is there something I am missing?

xPhearR3dx3815d ago

Some sites say completed, some sites say used, some sites say tested. Those two sites particular use "Version Tested". If you go to their ACIV review it says "Version Tested: PS3".

Foolsjoker3815d ago (Edited 3815d ago )

If 'tested' meant beat or completed then fine, but that is an odd word to use. As many people have 'tested' out AC4 at events, but that doesn't mean they should review the complete product. Just seems like an odd way of specifying what version they played through a game on.

P.S. Yes, I do believe a game needs to be completed, or at least the story needs to be completed, before reviewing it.

ftwrthtx3815d ago

Fair review. Can't wait for my PS4 version of this game.

All Call of Duty Games Ranked from Worst to Best

BLG writes: "Call of Duty has to be the most recognizable franchise on the planet. They didn’t get that way by only making a handful of games.

COD has a long and storied career. Launching as a PC WW2 first-person shooter, Call of Duty has gone through numerous makeovers and been on just about every system. The series has gone through some serious highs and tragic lows. I’ll be looking at each Call of Duty game, the good the bad, and the ugly."

Vanguard better be at the fkn bottom. Can’t believe ppl haven’t eviscerated that game with all its lacking

Minimoth789d ago

Yeah, it's close to the bottom. There are a couple of worse ones. Infinite Warfare definitely deserves its place.

KyRo789d ago

There's a number a lot worse than Vangaurd. It's also a lot better than that car crash Treyarch released before it.

XbladeTeddy789d ago

World at War is my favourite. Didn't know the N-Gage had a Call of Duty.

MadLad789d ago

Same for me.
I was never huge into Call of Duty, but I sunk a lot of time into WaW.
Both the campaign and the multiplayer are on point. Wouldn't mind a remaster.

I quit on CoD for a long while. Though I'm the odd man out that actually really enjoyed the campaign for WWII, being I got it through Humble monthly way back when.

TheLigX789d ago

I really enjoyed the Infinite campaign. Multiplayer... not so much.

Yppupdam789d ago

I agree, The Infinite campaign feels more like it's own thing that they slapped the CoD name on. If it stood on it's own, (sans the CoD name) I think it could have been it's own scifi franchise. And a damn good looking game, to boot. I never bothered to play the multiplayer.

victorMaje789d ago

MW 2019 apart from the desastrous file sizes is way better than AW.

MadLad788d ago

That was one I grabbed for Playstation because it pretty much just came out during the Redbox purge of videogames, and I got it for dirt cheap.

It was great coming home to an update every night, and watching one game eat up almost half my console's memory.

Amplitude789d ago (Edited 789d ago )

Will get disagrees but Infinite Warfare campaign was really good. Decent story, set pieces were amazing and if it didn't have the CoD game on it I'm sure people would have been more into it. Advanced Warfare was alright too. Titanfall 2 was just 1000 times better than both but I enjoyed them for their campaigns. I literally barely gaf about the story I'm in it for the set pieces and 5 hours of being stoned watching cool nonsense happen if I'm in the mood to play a CoD campaign. If I'm looking for a deep plot I'm gonna go somewhere else.
Ghosts was the worst story-wise though lol that cliffhanger ending was so bs.

Also MW 2019 was sick and is one of the best CoD games in yeeeears not sure why it's so low on this dude's list. Campaign was great, multiplayer was great and Warzone was fun for a while. Over it now but shrugs.

Beat the Vanguard campaign too but I can't even remember a single thing about it other than that it felt like it was 45 minutes long. Might be the most forgettable thing I've ever played lol just fully erased from my brain

Wore implementation I've ever seen,.. guess it just does not work all that great on every engine

MarkyMark891750d ago (Edited 1750d ago )

Agree, but this gives me hope that one day Ray Tracing can be a software based feature and not require some type of proprietary hardware to achieve. Software will always outpace Hardware so it could happen, but I feel like its going to take a lot more time to achieve the same level that RTX has already shown glimpses of so far. Really just waiting for Cyberpunk to see if RTX is actually something viable. I think if anybody can truly showcase RTX Features it would be Projekt Red.

zeal0us1750d ago

Too bad it doesn't make Mankind Divided a better game.

starchild1750d ago

It doesn't need to, the game was already fantastic, imo.

zeal0us1750d ago

Human Revolution was a better game and not to mention longer.

isarai1750d ago

Reshade is not raytracing, its a screen space post processing effect. Thats like calling SSAO "global illumination"
