5 stars (best game ever made) - this expansion pack is amazing and provides great improvements to the regular call of duty game. don't buy it for the single player - buy it for the amazing multiplayer. the graphics and movement have improved greatly. you can now run instead of just walk, and use smoke bombs, a great improvement. the weapons feel better - the action is fast-paced and more realistic. however, it's not perfect. many of the maps are so-called "tank maps" because they revolve around the use of tanks and jeeps. the jeeps are pretty cool, but these are a detriment to the game. you're better off not playing any tank maps at all. tanks are useless in that if you get in one, you'll almost instantly be blown to smithereens. in addition, the tanks keep spawning so this lame idea of "fun" is repeated ad nauseum. also the maps are much bigger and you spawn far away from the action, so there's too much walking or driving in UO. other negatives - sniper rifles are much much less useful than in regular COD. why? well, people can sprint and the faster people move, the harder they are to hit. also, smoke bombs cloud the sniper's vision. (still, the smoke is simply amazing). one more negative - artillery. artillery is a feature where when you reach a certain rank, you point with your binoculars and planes drop huge bombs on the enemy. for the most part it's cool, except there's simply too much artillery and when one team uses it on the other team's spawn point, the game is virtually over, because you can't stop from being killed by it. this is a stupid oversight on the part of the makers of UO. other positives - new types of games, especially capture the flag, my personal favorite, greatly add to the fun, instead of playing old boring team deathmatch. also, make sure you turn your search filter on to search for "mods" so you can play new modifications and maps that people created. this adds to the freshness and excitement of the game. also t...

3 stars (war games) - Good action most of the time but could get monotonous some of the time. Would have been more fun if the ability to choose another weapon was there like for example a sniper rifle would have been better for a lot of the action. 5 stars (It Doesn't Get Any Better Than This!) - I thought the original COD was excellent, but this expansion raises the bar. The graphics are excellent. The missions are wonderful, but, in my opinion, the best, by far, is the all-too-short stint you do in a RAF B-17. Running back and forth between top guns, waist guns and tail guns is very exciting. The US missions are excellent, too, as are the Russian missions. As for resources, this game requires them. I have a middle of the road G5 and it runs fine. The only time it bogged down a tiny bit is during the final Russian battle in the rail yard. I have everything maxed out, though, so I could lower the settings and have no problems. So, if you have a newer machine, or you are ok with lowering the settings, you'll be ok. I'm anxiously awaiting more expansion packs for the Mac. In the mean time, I'll up the difficulty one notch and replay both games again. It's THAT good. Trust me. 3 stars (Requires too many resources) - I have an iBook G4 1.2GHz with 768MB RAM. The original Call of Duty ran fine. The expansion set, even with the lolwest graphics settings, does not run well. Picture jumps too much making it impossible to play, especially during big battle scenes. ...
