game for the Playstation 3. \u00a0It&#8217;s been a while since my last Call of Duty campaign, so I was excited &#8211; jumped straight into action. \u00a0The next six and a half hours flew by like 15 minutes. \u00a0 That&#8217;s how long it took me to finish the campaign with the Regular difficulty. \u00a0During that time I fought in space, in the air, on the ground, at sea, and water. \u00a0I&#8217;ve been to the ice cold north and mosquito infested jungle of the south. \u00a0I flew helicopters, drove tanks, operated remote snipers, targeted space-based warfare, blew up hundreds of vehicles and killed thousands of people. \u00a0It was a bloody battle which required training, precision, bravery, heart of a stone and balls of steel. \u00a0But I came out on top and got all the trophies and the medals in the process.<\/p>\n<p>A few minutes after the campaign finished and my red, watery eyes rested, I&#8217;ve also tried the online multiplayer. \u00a0That&#8217;s the part of the game where I&#8217;ll be spending much more hours in order to learn the maps, weapons and gear, but for now I just needed a taste of it. \u00a0While the new interface is a tad bit confusing at first, I see that all the old elements are there &#8211; different types of games, different types of weapon and equipment configuration, etc. \u00a0The controls in action are all the same as before, so I was pretty comfortable decreasing the numbers of my alive enemies. \u00a0The physics are slightly different from the previous games, but this, again, is just a matter of getting used to.<\/p>\n<p>Overall, I&#8217;m quite happy with the purchase. \u00a0It&#8217;s the good old Call of Duty that I dearly love &#8211; with a good, twisted campaign and a multitude of options for men-to-men battles.<\/p>\n<!-- google_ad_section_end -->\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<!-- google_ad_section_start -->\n<p>&nbsp;
