+Kai Pelekanos And it somehow predicted the war in the Middle East.....just kind of. I mean, look at the names and the situations: an arabic extremist takes the power in a Middle East country and the US storm the capital. Meanwhile a small task force is trying to catch the mastermind behind the event somewhere in Siberia, and it's not the classic "MURIKA WILL SAVE THE WORLD!" plot. It's a joint operation of the USMC, the SAS and the Russian Army.
2007-2008 were such great years for video games. That was when the XBOX 360 and the PlayStation 3 were finally hitting their stride. Modern Warfare, Bioshock, Halo 3, and GTA 4 came out within months of each other.....Man I miss high school.
Call of duty 4 modern warfare = best cod game ever Followed by call of duty modern warfare 2 and the second installment of the cod which is call of duty 2
I like MW2's campaign a little more. Sure COD4 campaign created the cinematic formula, but MW2 perfected it. It also has some of the best music I ever heard for an FPS game.
MrPhila I don't really like the twist though. It was shocking for the first time, but the more I think about it, the more I'm like "wait, it doesn't make any sense".
+倪传历(AllenSpellwaver) idk if you're solely talking about sp or mp included because mp was broken as hell. they took killstreaks and attachments from cod4 and raised it to a thousand
+Kelvin Wu It broke a little of me inside, all those people dead... understand, it was the first game in which i watched one of the protagonists die... and so horribly.
Modern Warfare, World at War, Modern Warfare 2, And Black Ops 1. Those were the best call of duties ever. They were simple, and you could just play without asking what every little thing does. Not to mention the campaigns were fantastic.
My favourite dialogue exchange in the game is: Price “Gaz can’t you make it open any faster?” Gaz “negative sir, but you can try pulling it if it makes you feel better” Price “cheeky bastard”
You said CoD4 was a simpler time in this video. This is exactly true and ironic because I was a kid when I played this game and we all know being a kid means better and simpler times that we want to go back to. There's my nostalgic comment of the day.
I bet when you were a kid, the comunity didn't despize kids on cod as much as they do now lol, i don't really care but now it's an insult? being a kid and playing a 18+ game!
me playing COD4 when it came out: holy shit!! this is so much better than COD2,I wonder what COD would look like in ten years from now -10 years later- Kids spamming voice chat,shit gameplay,micro paying system taking over the game,uncessary futuristic setting that feels like the developers shove up our ass to say they change the series,guns look like toys,bas killstreaks and 3 million dislikes :)
With so many COD fans having called for a return to 'boots on the ground' no jetpack/wallrunning, I'm thinking people want simplicity back. People got their fill of convoluted game play and are ready for a nice palate cleanser.
+powerplayer75 Maby it is fun but if they are jetpacks and wallruns in a Call of Duty it aint a real Call of Duty, I think you should play helo or something...
"mission failed, we'll get em next time" love COD 4 Modern Warfare. This is the best cod game of all time. They truly went south in my opinion, after this game. Which sucks because it was fun
But I think MW2 and MW3 are better than CoD 4 since the other games had spec ops and scorestreaks and I grew up playing mW3 and 2 and not 4 but mw4 is a good game I recently got the remaster version
+PatriotRUS LOL A PC NOOB THAT TRIED TRICKSHOTING WITH A MOUSE ON TOP OF THAT THE GAME FROSE EVERY 3SECONDS DUE TO HIS 0.8 USABLE RAM PC MASTER RACE FOR YOU
+SmokingBirds People who made MoH left to make their own games which lead up to the birth of Call Of Duty. If you care so much about people copying other games. You might as well say everyone copied Pac Man.
+TheGreen627 Cod 2 and 3 were amazing. the World War feel really made them games great man i haven't bought a cod since ghosts, these new ones coming out lately are just kids games.
+chappy2121 I liked how in world at war you didn't just fight nazis like in earlier games, you got to fight the japanese, and zombies once the game was beat. That coop option for the campaign was also awesome.
The nuke scene I think is honestly not only one of the most iconic scenes in video games but in all of entertainment. I will never forget my first time playing the campaign and witnessing such a well done sequence that had me silent and stunned even minutes after it. Most movies can't even make me feel that way let alone a video game. Hats off to you COD4, you will forever be a legend.
+Johnny Rico no mass effect and gears 1 was better but yes. you were like me gaming, respect to you random citizen. sign the petition to remake cod 4. www.change.org/p/infinity-ward-remake-call-of-duty-4-modern-warfare-acc35cf1-4735-43ae-9e6c-389fa51b42a5?recruiter=72667604&
Definitely my favorite. I remember playing in online multiplayer for the first time and I felt like I was in an actual battlefield. I was so scared to die! I don't think the majority of gamers really care about their K/D anymore, considering the majority are 12 year olds. It used to be simple and you had to work with the guns and perks that were available at the time. It made it challenging. You had to figure out how to use those weapons and perks more effectively than your opponent. Now a days you can add so much crap to your guns that it really takes that aspect of survival of the fittest away.
I wish they do a remastered version of this game, I had amazing times playing it. However, I dont think they will because I bet we all be playing CoD4 4 instead of the new CoDs.
When you said “you feel like your fighting for a purpose” this is extremely true in one mission where captain price asks what the enemy is doing to hq and they say exacting the villagers and price says “not for long they are” that really makes you feel like you aren’t playing a game it makes it feel like you are in the game fighting for those villagers lives idk just all around was a very good game
For me this will never be topped. Multi-player was the kind of frustrating where you immediately loaded up again because you were still having fun. Everybody had the same kill streaks, and the weapons would go through a meta, where suddenly everyone would switch from the P90, to the M16, to the M40A3, to the Druganov, to the MP5… etc. But they were constantly changing because the situational use was constantly changing. Which meant every gun had a use. Nowadays I often use less than half the weapons afforded to me because they don’t have actual situational use. I loved this game. Best maps, too.
Same. At least Price survived though. It's interesting, Soap was the main player character, the one the audience sees most of the story through, but Price was the true main character and protagonist of the MW series, from the mission in Pripyat all the way to the finale of MW3, it was really Price's story.
my dad played it when I was 3. Now hes 50 i am 15 and im Playing the Remastered next gen version. I playit now for 5 years and I still play it every week. I just love it.
+Striker Janners cause COD is about hardcore realistic warfares....and Infinite Warfare is just getting too far away from the basic COD concept. I have been playing COD since COD1. COD has lost its path. Thats what I say,no harm,no foul,no offense
AxeDoes...Stuff He said one of the best COD missions ever. I stated it being one of the best missions ever. My statement implies all games not just COD. Check yo self.
All the younger fans will say black ops or any other game. Yes black ops was great but when you first started with cod4 it is clearly without a fight the best cod
+2727BROOKLYN I wouldn't say so, I've play all the Call of duty's since 3 and my all time favorite has been Black Ops 1. Thought the story was so unique especially for a a first person shooter, multiplayer was so much fun and probably the last game of the series that wasn't overboard with all the shit and i could just play zombies for a full weekend without getting bored. MW1 was absolutely breathtaking for it's time but for gameplay value and fun BO1 takes the cake.
+Morgan Reutter I have to agree with this statement. Black Ops was the pinnacle of the series. World at War was an absolutely fantastic game as well. Something about the characters that Treyarch created was so gripping for me. World at War and Black Ops had a certain personality to them that no other Call of Duty game has replicated
Black Rulership that's not cool, a lot of people play that game for fun and you're just ruining the experience and whats fun about wrecking opponents while not using any hard earned skill?
+Black Rulership Sad, sad, sad. A game is meant to give you small achievements throughout playing, and you can't even accomplish that without cheating.
-Simplistic and easy to get into. Not a ton of perks and weapons or kill streaks, but just the right amount. Kill streaks aren't OP like much of the controlled kill streaks in future franchises -Arguably the best or among the top 3 in story out of the entire franchise -Arguably has the best map design out of the entire series, hands down.
Everything you said, spot on. Now 17 years on. This game was the game .I'm 47 now and can't keep up with the modern fps games but I'd still gold myself in Cod 4 😂💪🏻👌🏻👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻
1- the original IW were incrediblly talented, their level design/feel/pacing/atmosphere was excellent 2-fresh idea, a war game in modern settings was badass 3-innovative multiplayer at the time, leveling up completely changed online gaming 4-phenomenal campaign/pacing/story/voice acting 5-Nextgen shock value, gfx were breathtaking at the time 6-great soundtrack 7-fluid flawless 60FPS controls
The multiplayer mode was geared towards PC, instead of consoles. So it had the element of strategy and the feeling of achievement (albeit less than for example BF and CS) instead of the arcade feel of today's COD's.
You wanna know why we don't feel that connection towards the characters in FPS levels anymore? What was the last FPS you can truly remember that started you off as a nameless grunt where you're shooting bottles off fence posts and helmets and such in a training mission? That's because the game starts you off as nothing, being brand new, and works your way up almost in an RPG way.
I just replayed the CoD 4 campaign for the past week...it's like the 20th time I do it in the past 8 years...and man wasn't it astonishing...the nostalgia and heart beats...the goosebumps flowing. This game made my childhood
+SkipperPlaysTW It was ok, the last one to let you fight in tanks in multiplayer, something none of the newer ones (B Ops etc) let you do (which should tell you something)
CoD 4, Black Ops 1 and World at War had something that new CoD games lack: a mix between an Michael Bay Production and a Plot story that feels legit (and possible in our world)
2007 was the year for FPS. Coming off Half Life 2's innovations in FPS storytelling (and the release of Episode 2 w/ the Orange Box), we got Portal, CoD4, and Bioshock in the same year.
One thing that I found interest about the first mw game versus the others , it gave this very silent quiet depressing vibe, but mw2 and 3 gave this war and action packed vibe .
you have to be mental to pay$110 for a game that literally costs $3 at GameStop. I just recently did this and the cashier says, wow finally one smart person.
The Heckler and koch machine pistol 7 wasn't in mass production as the h and k mp5 so it was mainly issued to the secret service and federal police agencies; however, some production units may be found elsewhere but, I'm not aware besides , some bodyguards may also carting around the model
Another reason this was so good was the 4 player offline multiplayer. I remember playing with my cousins a game mode where you started with no guns and perks and had to scavenge for guns and perks and pick them up from around the map. And let's not forget the maps, bog, wet works, shipment, crash
I loved COD and MW2 but the franchise has changed for the worse over the years. Not a case of rose tinted hind sight, it was actually a better gaming experience. I think Battlefield has gone in the right direction with their WW I scenario instead of the futuristic super jump bullshit.
the simplistic multiplayer is what made it great. not so much random things flying around and much more skill based/tactic based/and MUCH MORE COMPETITIVE
Jackson's death kinda hit hard for me. I was just starting to warm up to him and then he dropped dead. I thought he was going to live. I still love Soap, though.
+classplayer12 honestly they only things they would need to do is remove death streaks/last stand have cycling kill streaks and a few little tweaks here and there like jack said. that with the obvious graphics boost and you got a next best seller

Alexander Cortez I want it based off of a fictional war between North Korea and America
All Gillied up will always be one of if not the best Call of Duty single player mission
+AJGemau Maybe even one of the best campaign missions ever.
+James Vaughn you said the same exact thing...
AxeDoes...Stuff He said one of the best COD missions ever. I stated it being one of the best missions ever. My statement implies all games not just COD. Check yo self.
AxeDoes...Stuff Me too lol just trying to get my mind off finals right now.
50,000 people used to play on these servers, now it's a ghost game
Demian Makuc do you know what i was referencing?
yeah the "50000 people" talk everytime you start the game haha :) i know i know, I just thought I'd say it :) golden times
Demian Makuc indeed :D

2007-10 was Call of Duty in its prime!
COD4, WAW, MW2, BO1.
These are arguably the best FPS's I've ever played. (IMO)
+14DANESSJ The single player camping of WAW was quitte monotone, but Reznov in the other hand...
Teco01ejg I agree it has the weakest campaign of the four, but I'd argue it's the best ww2 cod game we've had. And yes Reznov was awesome!
You guys asked for a futuristic call of duty, remember that
MW2 BEST OF THE LOT.
I didn't ask for that
xboxboff the community did
LOLMASSSS2442 but I didn't. He said "you guys" implying all cod fans did. But as I am an individual person I strongly jeutest with the community
jolly good sir
All the younger fans will say black ops or any other game. Yes black ops was great but when you first started with cod4 it is clearly without a fight the best cod
amen!
+2727BROOKLYN I wouldn't say so, I've play all the Call of duty's since 3 and my all time favorite has been Black Ops 1. Thought the story was so unique especially for a a first person shooter, multiplayer was so much fun and probably the last game of the series that wasn't overboard with all the shit and i could just play zombies for a full weekend without getting bored. MW1 was absolutely breathtaking for it's time but for gameplay value and fun BO1 takes the cake.
That's because of nostalgia. 19/20 people choose whatever game was their 1st
+sam burton Al;ot of PC gamers cashed their chips in when BO was released. And PC gaming is where you follow for the trends to happen.
I first started with CoD2 and I still think CoD4 was the best game ever, and that was released 2 games later. CoD2 was fun af too, CoD3 blew ass.
I'd have to say Black Ops 1 was and still is the best COD game ever.
+Morgan Reutter lol
facts
+Morgan Reutter I'm not gonna judge you, but fucking hell that's just... weird
+Morgan Reutter I have to agree with this statement. Black Ops was the pinnacle of the series. World at War was an absolutely fantastic game as well. Something about the characters that Treyarch created was so gripping for me. World at War and Black Ops had a certain personality to them that no other Call of Duty game has replicated
Hahahahahahahhahahaahahahahaha
Because it was simple, fun, had amazing graphics for 2007 and you DIDN'T FLY AROUND LIKE FUCKING GALO JUMPING OFF WALLS! #CODISDEAD
Ikr Cod with "Galo" Wall jumping sucks *ss.
Sk_ RaZdoT gaylo?
cod 4 is the pinnacle of skill when it comes to cod games. no bullshit, pure gunplay, map knowledge, and raw skill. we need more games like this
It also had too much radiation that we had to go around
Lol.
+Black Rulership for multiplayer or single player?
Black Rulership that's not cool, a lot of people play that game for fun and you're just ruining the experience and whats fun about wrecking opponents while not using any hard earned skill?
if you absorb too much you are a dead man... stand by
+Black Rulership Sad, sad, sad. A game is meant to give you small achievements throughout playing, and you can't even accomplish that without cheating.
I know people give CoD shit, I do too, but the Modern Warfare Trilogy, is one of my favourite video game trilogies ever, it's just so good.
+KiRo88TheMLGNoob i used to get high as fuck and just play out all 3 of the single player campaigns
bubba82069 lol
+KiRo88TheMLGNoob I would like a MW4, but they won't listen.
Yara Van Snelle NONONONO! The MW story is done! Don't ruin it!
Also World at War, and Black Ops 1!!!
fifty thousand people usedd to live here, now it's a ghost town.
They should've put that map in ghost or in next cod
-Simplistic and easy to get into. Not a ton of perks and weapons or kill streaks, but just the right amount. Kill streaks aren't OP like much of the controlled kill streaks in future franchises
-Arguably the best or among the top 3 in story out of the entire franchise
-Arguably has the best map design out of the entire series, hands down.
I can answer your question with one word:
PROMOD - PC!
Mazarini, Paradox, Stevy and others, also the fragmovies that time where sick as hell ^^
Everything you said, spot on. Now 17 years on. This game was the game .I'm 47 now and can't keep up with the modern fps games but I'd still gold myself in Cod 4 😂💪🏻👌🏻👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Modern warfare
World at war
Black ops.
The absolute peak of the franchise.
1- the original IW were incrediblly talented, their level design/feel/pacing/atmosphere was excellent
2-fresh idea, a war game in modern settings was badass
3-innovative multiplayer at the time, leveling up completely changed online gaming
4-phenomenal campaign/pacing/story/voice acting
5-Nextgen shock value, gfx were breathtaking at the time
6-great soundtrack
7-fluid flawless 60FPS controls
The multiplayer mode was geared towards PC, instead of consoles. So it had the element of strategy and the feeling of achievement (albeit less than for example BF and CS) instead of the arcade feel of today's COD's.
I see little strategy in slapping on juggernaut and tanking 50.Cal sniper rounds. Which is basically all anyone does.
Ethan Donnelly which platform did you play cod4 on?
PS
Völundr Frey This comment is pretty stupid.
what made cod 4 so good is the fact that the maps were so diverse and not 3 lanes like new call of duties
+Kyle Runyon ... cod4 maps were literally all 3 lanes, thats where the formula came from
+PogChamp maybe I didn't notice it because of the lack of head glitch spots lol
1- sees a cod video
2- gets nostalgic
3- installs and starts playing
4- gets rekt
5-uninstalls
6- repeat 1-6 a few months later.
+Patrick Bateman Story of my life
Get out of my head.
You wanna know why we don't feel that connection towards the characters in FPS levels anymore? What was the last FPS you can truly remember that started you off as a nameless grunt where you're shooting bottles off fence posts and helmets and such in a training mission? That's because the game starts you off as nothing, being brand new, and works your way up almost in an RPG way.
I remember the characters from infinite warfare. Game was as good if not surpasing mw.
Gengarred real recognize real.
I just replayed the CoD 4 campaign for the past week...it's like the 20th time I do it in the past 8 years...and man wasn't it astonishing...the nostalgia and heart beats...the goosebumps flowing. This game made my childhood
7:46 THAT PIECE OF MUSIC GIVES ME CHILLS EVERY FUCKING TIME MAN, THE CHILLS.....
+AceGames Same here!
+AceGames so good
+AceGames Dude, I know exactly what you mean, I remember sitting in the lobby waiting for a game to start, listening to that music....I love it
CoD 4 through Black Ops the golden age of CoD
Yep, mw3 was the only dodgy one from 07-12
@@callumrae5769 it was, but current CoD’s make it look like GoTY material.
@@le4-677 yeh but tbh I think the community was getting a bit fed of historic/ modern cod
@@callumrae5769 call of duty was like the golden state warriors with Durant during 2007-2011
IW last good game. CoD4 got so much right at the right time.
Mw2.
danovtlc Broken mess that was badly balanced and never supported
+Nerdlegend WaW was good.
+SkipperPlaysTW It was ok, the last one to let you fight in tanks in multiplayer, something none of the newer ones (B Ops etc) let you do (which should tell you something)
SkipperPlaysTW WaW was made by Treyarch not IW
CoD 4, Black Ops 1 and World at War had something that new CoD games lack: a mix between an Michael Bay Production and a Plot story that feels legit (and possible in our world)
Man.. just by hearing the music I got goosebumps.
+hallugenetic so much nostalgia.... 6-9 years ago..
2007 was the year for FPS. Coming off Half Life 2's innovations in FPS storytelling (and the release of Episode 2 w/ the Orange Box), we got Portal, CoD4, and Bioshock in the same year.

Daniel. True
One thing that I found interest about the first mw game versus the others , it gave this very silent quiet depressing vibe, but mw2 and 3 gave this war and action packed vibe .
You managed to do the impossible for me. You kept my attention on a video about a Call Of Duty game. Good job!
i miss cod 4 and its coming back to me 😁
+Zihiar Henry You can still play cod4...
Jon Corcoran 😁
+Jon Corcoran But still, the server browser is like: "50,000 people used to live here. Now it's a ghost town."
COD4 is still alive and active on PC
you have to be mental to pay$110 for a game that literally costs $3 at GameStop. I just recently did this and the cashier says, wow finally one smart person.
One of the reasons why I think the cod games around modern warfare were so good was because we don't have any damn exo suits and gingerbread suits...
There's no mp7 in cod 4
joe bob prob meant mp5.
Blitz nobody cares
The Heckler and koch machine pistol 7 wasn't in mass production as the h and k mp5 so it was mainly issued to the secret service and federal police agencies; however, some production units may be found elsewhere but, I'm not aware besides , some bodyguards may also carting around the model
The3gr8 king trans4mable bumble bee no one asked
Cod4 was just a vibe, easily my favorite cod
Yes it captured 2008 for me
Simplicity is the key.
Short answer is because it was such a simple game that played amazingly
This video aged so well I thought it came out a few months ago
Another reason this was so good was the 4 player offline multiplayer. I remember playing with my cousins a game mode where you started with no guns and perks and had to scavenge for guns and perks and pick them up from around the map. And let's not forget the maps, bog, wet works, shipment, crash
+Darth Vader Never forget Crossfire
+Darth Vader I wish more games in general did that these days
That game was Fantastic, and you explained it so well. Great vid
I loved COD and MW2 but the franchise has changed for the worse over the years. Not a case of rose tinted hind sight, it was actually a better gaming experience. I think Battlefield has gone in the right direction with their WW I scenario instead of the futuristic super jump bullshit.
honestly I wish battlefield 1 took place in ww2
Probably have WW2 maps and weapons as late dlc most likely.
that would be lit ☺
Thats because just after MW2 launched IW sacked most of their staff
Best campaign was black ops 2 imo
8 years since this video.
A generation since this game💔
I still play this using lan when my friends come to my house
:D
:D
the simplistic multiplayer is what made it great. not so much random things flying around and much more skill based/tactic based/and MUCH MORE COMPETITIVE
Definitely people don't like hoping like 15 feet in the air
+juan carlos zavala No it is because movement is akward. The maps barely support thew movement system. And the gunplay and movement are at odds.
i dream about this game in my sleep
Wake up and play it then
Jackson's death kinda hit hard for me. I was just starting to warm up to him and then he dropped dead. I thought he was going to live. I still love Soap, though.
Simplicity makes a COD game worth playing.
Make COD great again. Let's get a remastered COD 4 for PS4 and Xbox one.
+Callofduty4man221 lol cod4 with a controller, hf
lol what with pc?
U want press X to climeup the wall?
Alright, when Treyarch's up in 2 years, I'll be expecting a WaW remaster. Make it happen Treyarch
Hell yes
+TheOneTrueBryce ! it would be in-fucking-sane
Only if you buy the ultimate prestige edition for $599 USD
.
haha ikr Versace Bentley
cod 4 love the classic feal. Hate them new exo suit cods they have to much dlc
Mr PriMe feel*
too*
You want a classic feel? Check out Call of Duty 2
CoD4 and MW2 are my favorites. I still play them to this day.
Back when it actually looked like you were holding the gun
if they remastered this, would buy again in a heartbeat
same
+TROllingNINJA2031 it is remastered on PC bro, 4k 91fps
+classplayer12 honestly they only things they would need to do is remove death streaks/last stand have cycling kill streaks and a few little tweaks here and there like jack said. that with the obvious graphics boost and you got a next best seller
I could not agree more.
But world at war? 😭
One of the last truly LAN games. You could play with friends at a freaking LAN party!!! Love it! I wish game studios would still keep this in bloody mind when making shooters!
