Call of Duty: World at War. Profile for: zOmBiEAdded by zOmBiE, 24-06-2008, links to http://www.worthplaying.com/article.php?sid=53213
The call brings players back to World War 2 for more action and mayhem. This time in the Pacific Theatre. Extras include the long overlooked Co-op gameplay mode. Scheduled for release this autumn on Xbox 360, PS3, Wii and PC.

If it wasn`t for the fact that this looks quite dark and has multiplay co-op, I don`t think I`d consider even looking at it.

However, if the MP co-op is done well it could be quite a laugh. Although I think Left for Dead is coming out about the same time, and that appeals far more to me.

Think I'm done with WW2 shooters personally. Love them but have done them to death. The co-op is tempting though. May wait til its bargain bucket and pick it up for a cheeky MP blast if you guys were up for it.

Agree that Left for Dead is much more appealing.

Yeah, it`ll have to be bargain bucket fodder I reckon.

Co-op is long overdue, fans have been screaming for it since the first and it`s only just arrived. I can`t help but think it`ll be a tad linear, too.

Anyone fancy L4D when it arrives? Smile

Back to WW2. I've been thinkinf for a long time that it was about time they made another FPS, set in WW2 this time, for a change.

Co-op sounds cool, but it's becoming pretty much the norm for shooters these days. On consoles anyway...

I'd rather play Gears of War 2. Nothing to see here etc...

Wouldn`t be the Alfs without Forum Cancer.

Seem to remember a very similar comment when I posted about CoD4.

As for co-op, its been the standard on PC for many many years, rather then just `these days`.

Such a predicatable post.

Name PC Shooters of recent years featuring Multiplayer Co-op through the main single player game. Out of the box - so that counts SS2 out for starters...

Drop In Drop Out CO-OP FPS is becoming a defining hallmark of the current generation of shooters, of which development is led mostly on consoles.

Sorry, didn`t see the above conditions in your first post, let me check back to it.

Nope, can`t see them.

Nutz to your conditions. I said it had been availabe for years, so SS2 is valid. Along with the Serious Sams`. Yes, I know there old, that was my entire point.

As for recent years, no idea. I got bored of drop out FPS` many years ago and moved on to more challenging games.

"Co-op sounds cool, but it's becoming pretty much the norm for shooters these days."

So, if we take the above line without the secondary conditions added in a later post, I can think of several co-op shooters. Not going to list them, so can`t be alfed.

All I was saying was that Call of Duty 5 having co-op is not that much of a big deal in the context of other games providing this feature. The rest of my apathy is based on last month's review column rant in Edge, about games like Haze relying on co-op as a feature to save it's own alfe - and failing.

Provocative discussion is only a good thing IMHO, though people like Ebow do their best to stop people talking about their opinion.

I never said it was a big deal, I said it was long overdue.

As for judging a game thats not out yet on the review of an entirely different game last month, I don`t see the relevance.

"though people like Ebow do their best to stop people talking about their opinion."

So, does that mean the below comment is actually your opinion?

"Back to WW2. I've been thinkinf for a long time that it was about time they made another FPS, set in WW2 this time, for a change."

I don`t believe for a second that it is.

This comment was made with much much sarcasm.
