ZeroTolerance writes: It was a perplexing announcement when Activision said that Modern Warfare was coming to Wii. Would it be the original game, a version of part two, or a Wii-specific port that took advantage of the motion controls? Well we now have our answer with Reflex. Developer Treyarch has done some miraculous things with the Wii. Last year they managed to get World at War running on the system, so they decided to port the original Modern Warfare over to give Wii owners a taste of the excitement. What we end up getting is a stripped down version of the two-year old hit that manages to defy the logic of the Wii's hardware; a game that should not be running on the console and for Wii only owners, a definite treat.
Everything you need to know about Modern Warfare III coming to Xbox Game Pass and PC Game Pass.
MW 2019 is five years old at this point and on previous gen hardware, but it is still the best looking Call of Duty game to date.
MW was an excellent videogame. They messed up Spec Ops big time, but aside from this it was a huge step in the right direction initially. Most notably, at launch it seemed to come from a very cohesive creative vision that was felt across gameplay, to story to art style/visual direction. It was also very notably written by prominent ex-Naughty Dog guys that quit almost immediately before release.
That COMPLETELY dissolved through post-launch content and the full pivot to a "cross-mode" narrative that completely obliterated the cohesion in overall story direction. Warzone then "became" the new face of Call of Duty and the franchise completely removed itself from anything remotely creatively "good". It is a pure money machine, so I kinda get why they're doing it....but I personally completely lost interest.
I would love to see Infinity Ward move off CoD and get to make their own product with full control. They clearly have some massive talent in their ranks but it's perverted by Activision's corporate interests.
Call Of Duty is back with its yearly instalment, but is Modern Warfare 3 breaking new ground, or just a lazy cash grab? The answer may not surprise you in today's review from JDR.
Wow the graphics look on par with the PS3 version.
The co-op mode seems like a fun inclusion, having already played through the game on an HD console.
I only had framedrops in the last half of the game's single player. Online, none. It's amazing how well it runs in multiplayer.
Voice chat is a buzz kill, but honestly, I can do without the homophobes and sophomoric taunting, too.
The Conduit proved that FPS don't work on Wii and that mature games do not sucseed. This pretty much applies to all nintendo platforms (GTA chinatown anyone?)
