Call of Duty 4 Hands On
Kotaku have posted their hands on of Call of Duty 4, I was a big fan of these games in the past, didn't care much for 3 because it was very much more of the same. However I am looking forward to playing this, its not WWII...
The game seems to do several things very right. It updates the graphics and the look of the game, doing an excellent job of capturing what I suspect the feel of modern combat is. It also keeps that addictive pacing that made the first two Call of Duty games so very much fun to play and hard to put down.
The game will feature to main story lines both of which center around a Russian warlord of some sort. More importantly, the game seems to mix up the action quite a bit. Instead of forcing you to stay on the ground, grunting it through the levels, you get to do things like take to a Cobra Gunship as a gunner, take on covert missions, even board planes to remotely take down targets from quite a distance.
