Call Of Duty: World at War is better than Call Of Duty 4, So Why The Lower Scores?

This is what baffles me

currently on Metacritic Call of Duty 4, made by Developers Inifinity Ward has a 94% on both 360 and PS3


Yet Call of Duty: World at War, made by Developers Treyarch sits with an 86% on both 360 and PS3, quite a drop.

So what is the cause of this? i honestly dont know, COD WaW offers so much more than COD4 ever did.

Now before i go on, i loved call of duty 4, i thought it was a bench mark for the FPS Genre and blew me away by its incredible online.

there are quite a few things COD WaW offers which COD4 Didnt -

 - A better constructed Story
 - Full co-op mode
 - a better online with more online game modes
 - the incredible nazi zombie mode for both co-op and solo

Well thats my two cents. COD WaW is a much improved game over COD4.

One gigantic problem with World at War, its a used-up, seen-before, tired WW2 shooter. Its old.

I also prefer CoD4 to CoD5. CoD5 is really short, and the story didn't really do anything for me. Even the fact that they got Kiefer Sutherland in to do a voice didn't help much. And that Russian campaign, it's basically the same as the previous Russian campaign.
In my book, CoD4 is the better CoD of the two latest ones.

I Think its better, because theres noting news in Cod5 its the same engine as Cod4 and no new features badly game cod5 rocks

It has nothing to do with the WW2 setting. The reason is because it uses the same exact gameplay and engine as COD4....theres no evolution

ZOMBIE MODE COOP. That is not in COD4. COD4 is great, but COD5 is a better shooter and better package.
