 Terrible multiplayer January 8, 2009

The campaign mode is pretty good however in online multiplayer which is what I like to play there are so many glitches in the game that it is not even enjoyable due to the fact that players can go under some of the game maps to kill you and you can't kill them. It needs to have a lot of glitches fixed and updates installed. All in all I wish I had my money back.
Worth it, but you'll still play Modern Warfare for the weapons January 7, 2009

...and the familiarity with the maps/stages.
World at War is a great single player and co-op game, but honestly it's difficult to get 3 other friends over on a continuous basis to beat the game - unless you're in College or below.
Online play is just as seamless and user-friendly as COD4 - maybe even a tad smoother/faster.
Looking forward to COD "6" - when it should hopefully be "modern" again.

Call of Duty World at War is the latest installment to the Call of Duty franchise and by far the best yet. With a new series of incredible graphics enhancements and voice-overs from top name actors, the game features non-stop action and incredible realism. For the history buffs the game features largely accurate historical accounts of situations in all theaters of the war. From thick vegetation in the Pacific to Entrenched Germans in Berlin this game has it all.
