Gameplay
An all-new close-quarters battle mode allows players to fight hand-to-hand, improvise explosive devices, disarm traps, and execute a host of other battlefield situations that require cunning and rapid reflexes to survive. Meanwhile, the next-generation game design allows for multiple attack routes that let players decide how to confront the enemy.
Each unique mission path requires special tactics, from sniping and demolition, to all-out head-on clashes, providing for a truly organic game that is never the same twice. There's also a new multiplayer mode that allows for combined arms and team-based combat.
Gameplay is further enhanced by the incredible graphics power of the PlayStation 3. You'll experience photo-realistic graphics and fast, smooth action that makes the experience of battle all the more immersive.

Call of Duty 3 also offers soldier classes, each with class specific abilities, and a ranking system for truly diversified squad combat, and hours of multiplayer, and single player fun.

Of Course You Realize This Means War
Call of Duty 3 is a really fun game with extremely realistic battle sequences. The downfall is that you can only play in single player mode unless you want to do/are set up for online play.
In single player mode, you're a first person shooter soldier on the frontline in WWII France. You arrive in camp, learn how to maneuver around, shoot your weapon & throw grenades (smoke and explosive). Then you're immediately strewn into various battle.
You start out as private Nichols (American) in the first chapter, but depending on which chapter you're in, you might also find yourself playing as Doyle (British), Cole (Canadian) or Boharter (Polish).
You fight you way through intense battle chapters (there are 14 chapters). You're mostly shooting whichever weapon you happen to have picked up (mostly from dead soldiers on the ground) along your objective route (a barrage of automatics and rifles). Your objectives that guide you along are updated regularly as you complete each task throughout each chapter. And some of those tasks are brutal.
No matter which chapter you're in you are mostly using your primary weapon (a rifle or machine gun), but you'll also need to engage in some exhilarating hand to hand combat, you'll need to guide tanks, fire mortars, row boats, drive jeeps, attach and arm explosives to enemy weapons, disarm booby traps and man other stationary weapons.
To me, all of the chapters are equally difficult. So if you figure out how to unlock them all like we did, there's no reason to play them chronologically (perhaps at least for consistency chapters 1 & 14 should be played respectively first and last).
So all in all Call of Duty 3 is intensely fun, but like I said earlier, the biggest drawback to this awesome game is that multiplayer mode is only available with online play. I'm sure that online play is spectacular for advanced players, but my kids and I 1) are not advanced, and 2) we'd rather just play amongst ourselves for now. I'm no software expert, but if multiplayer capability works online, some genius should have figured out that multiplayer would be equally fun with friends/family at the same console. Hence, that is the only reason why I've deducted a star from the overall rating.
A Worthy Member of the Call of Duty Series
Call of Duty 3 is the classic combat game of World War II. If you've seen Saving Private Ryan, you know what you're in for. Head-throbbing noise and death all around you.
The game goes for instant immersion. You're barely off on your first trip when shells are landing, guns are hammering in your ears and there is complete chaos. You have to be careful not to hit a friendly while you're blasting away at the bad guys. You can barely see what you're doing. Your friends drag you along when you're hurt, and the rain and smoke can blind you.
Call of Duty 3 does a great job of giving you a WWII environment with character. You're in destroyed homes with cans on the shelves and holes blown into bedroom walls. You can see the smoke drifting across the main street, the plunks of rain as it falls through the boards. Bodies collapse realistically. The PS3's high def graphics really shine here.
The controller also adds to the sense of immersion. When you want to whap someone in the head with your gun, you just give the controller a sharp twist. You also use the controller for other steering-related tasks as well.
How about the sound? Playing the Call of Duty series always gives me a headache after a while :) But that's the point - war wasn't fun. It's not about cool pop soundtracks while you blow away the enemies. It's about listening carefully for footsteps in the silence, and then having your eardrums shatter when the barrage rains down on you.
Gameplay is well done with multi-pathed missions that let you choose your objective, within the current mission's parameters. You can't just decide to turn around and head for Bermuda :). Your leaders tell you what your group needs to do - but then it's up to you how to get it done.
Even if you're an uber-soldier and whip through the main gameplay in a short period of time, there is still the online side, which can keep you going for *months*. The in-game play is only training for the real challenge, live human opponents. Of course, if you don't like online gameplay, there is certainly a wealth of gameplay to replay for quite a while before you start to get bored.
Highly recommended!
Finished the PS3 game in one day!!!
Yup! This game is so much fun it glued me to my seat! I like the story line, the first person shooting, audio effects, the choice of guns, and the graphics. My favorite WWII gun is the Thompson, and boy, combined with the Springfield or the Garand, one can mix up on close combat or pure sniping. Just remember you have grenades too. Other tools include bazookas, tanks, jeeps, machine guns, etc. You can feel like Audie Murphy in his movie-biography To Hell and Back. The graphics is totally awesome. I used Playstation 3 on Sony LCD TV, and I would suggest to turn up your speakers (gaming or home theater). I stayed away from first person shooting games when I got headaches ages ago with JB 007 N64 after 15 - 20 minutes of gaming. Since then, I only tried it last year with Socom Fireteam Bravo on the PSP. I was curious how the COD3 graphics on the PS3 will affect me, and to my surprise, it allowed me to physically (and mentally) play it continuously until the end.
The only thing I would like to see on a COD is a score of how many kills, statistics, etc. to allow you to get medals, ranks, etc. and progress through the game. I also don't think that the game is 1080p. My TV shows 720p for COD whereas it shows 1080p when I put NBA07.
Overall, my first COD experience was great and lots of fun!
