Call of Duty 3 is a 2006 first-person shooter video game developed by Treyarch and published by Activision. It is the third major installment in the Call of Duty video game series. It was released for all seventh-generation home consoles, the PlayStation 3, Wii, and Xbox 360. It was also released on the PlayStation 2 and Xbox.
This game was a launch title for the PS3 and Wii in North America, Europe and Australia. It was also the only major Call of Duty installment not to be released for personal computer platforms and the only numerical sequel to date to have been a console-exclusive game alongside Call of Duty 2: Big Red One and Call of Duty: Finest Hour. It was also the second installment in the Call of Duty series to be developed by Treyarch after Big Red One. - Ігри
You know, it's really nice to see ONE person who reviews first person shooters and isn't on the same damn Call-of-Duty-hate bandwagon as the rest of UA-cam. Yeah, they're not revolutionary games, but they're well built and fun and it's cool to see someone who gives them the credit they deserve and doesn't just shit on them for attention.
Exactly! Dude tells it as he sees it, and that's why I subscribed long ago. And I usually agree with him, but not always, and that's cool too. A good, honest, unbiased review is hard to come by these days.
realevilcorgi They were really fun action-packed shooters up until World At War, then it went downhill.
CoD 3 was shit though.
They are not revolutionary...unless you are talking about cod1 2 4 mw2. Meaning all games made by original infinity ward
I love the early cod games still got 1 2 and 3 on my xbox 360. I remember playing them when I was only like 12 and they got me into war history, which in turn got me into history as a whole. Great games still to this day.
I like the nickname of the main character in Polish Campaign - "Bohater".
It means "Hero" :)
@some boby biased
@some boby not proven. It's opinion.
@some boby Laughs in Mongolian
@@adamfrisk956 I didn't know how Mongolian laugh sounds like.
For a game which was made only in 9 months, this was a really good Call of Duty game.
I believe WaW was made in about that time if not shorter. Its testament to Treyarchs development chops.The multiplayer in this is my second favourite in COD. Its funny, when this game came out they were the "inferior" developer.
CarnivorousMonster for a cod game it's a really bad game
One of my favorites
@@AydarBMSTU lol no, this is not "bad for a call of duty game". This is how the series started, show some respect. Just because you're 12 and were probably introduced to call of duty with advanced warfare does not make this a bad call of duty
@@AydarBMSTU Huh?
I spent my childhood in PS2 and playing games such as COD 3 or COD Finest Hour, and i must say, COD 3 was WITH NOT DOUBT, my favorite, even today, its my favorite game of ALL TIME
dont forget cod 2 big red won
Agreed
Dude, This wasn't the last WWII CoD game in the series, World at War was (CoD 5)
+Larry Bundy Jr Yeah my bad.
Gggmanlives
:D I do miss the WWII series, all these "future" games now, CoD is slowly turning into Halo.
+Larry Bundy Jr you mean Crysis by the way of Ghost Recon?
+Larry Bundy Jr There is an Online petition that's trying to get Activision to have Call of Duty return to it's roots. Hell, I got excited when there was a rumor of a World at War 2....but then it turned out to be Black ops 3
999haunted
Indeed, I gave up on Blops 3 as it felt so silly.
I had pretty mixed feelings towards this game, it felt so much cheaper and forced than the prior games, i highly recommend you check out COD The Big Red One, its similar but ultimately a much better and refined experience. Especially the characters IMO.
I agree. May be 3 had a bit better gamepaly but I enjoyed Big Red One better overall. Most notably, the story and characters were surprisingly good for a CoD game. I also liked the diversity - you have your usual Normandy missions but you also get missions in Africa, Italy and the Siegfrid Line in Germany. Those locations were not that common in WWII shooters.
Veselin Krastev i really loved the care and attention to detail in some places, the various weapons from the Italian to the french arms felt really authentic.
Yep, I know what you re talking about regarding the weapons and atmosphere. Again they cared to go beyond the conversational mp40s and 98ks. My favourite level is yhe one where you take that hill with the cross on top, somewhere in Italy I think. Loved the atmosphere.
Veselin Krastev its a damn shame its not well recognized as it should be, a solid FPS on the console that wasn't halo.
The reason behind this is because COD3 wasn't made by the original studio (Infinity Ward), as they were busy making COD4
This was the first Call of Duty game I ever played, back when it first came out when I got the 360 back in 2007.
Good times.
Same,but I've played it since 2011.
For a console exclusive, it's sure funny at the lack of checkpoints
Shame this was never for the PC
ROY F it would be a shame if the game wasn't terrible
cryhard
AydarBMSTU hahah yes....well, I’m more than happy with cod 2
I know! I spent all day looking for it and I'm so dam pissed!
I find it absolutely ridiculous that this game is not on PC. They have nothing more to gain keeping it exclusive on console. They can make more from it on PC.
one of the few cod games where the campaign was actually replayable
LowEndPCGamer100 it's painful the first time around what replayability are you talking about?
Bo1 is very replayable.
LowEndPCGamer10
This was my favourite Call of Duty.
Same!
Gman
Once again you prove why I love your reviews
Honest and to the point
Personally for me
This and COD 2 big red one were my favorites from childhood
I remember playing these games and because of you videos I have bought a ps2 and am going through about 30 games I’ve managed to get my hands on
My brother didn’t really like this game, so he gave it to me, man was that a huge mistake he made.
Luck envolved🤣
I wouldn't give the game away nor sell it but coming from someone who enjoys challenging games and plays a lot of Ninja Gaiden (if you haven't played any NG games, just try NG2 on master ninja, you'll regret it!) I found Call of duty 3 to be absolutely awful. I didn't like the way it transformed after playing call of duty 2 and beating it on veteran, call of duty 3 on veteran is a fucking asshole. The checkpoints were lousy, the campaign didn't sit well with me for some reason and idk I just hated it. (Not because of the critics) To each their own though.
Fun fact - since this game was ported from PS2 you can still pass the quick time events without the six axis controls, if you know which buttons to press
DUDE! No mention of multiplayer!? Arguably the best part of this amazing game! In fact this game is my absolute favorite in the series, and I am still saddened to no end that it never came to PC. Last summer of 2015 I went and got a great deal on a used Xbox 360 on eBay. It was the 2nd generation of the phat machines, one of the 2008 models with true HDMI, and I snagged that with a wireless controller and HDD for a whopping $45 USD! Better yet it was in mint condition with what looked like low hours of use and the seal was never broken.
I grabbed a mint copy of the game for $5 on eBay too! I mean, MINT! The multiplayer is what keeps me coming back for more. The weapons all have lots of realistic recoil, so if you like your games to be more challenging, then this game really is for you.
The multiplayer section has classes you choose from, and since this game is very much like United Offensive, and even some of the DLC maps were direct ports from those games, vehicles play a large role in multiplayer. You have the standard BMW R75 and Harley Davidson motorcycles with sidecar, a Dodge WC, Horch 1a troop vehicles with mounted MG's on the back and finally but certainly not least are the M4 Sherman and Panzer IV tanks.
I have very vivid memories of playing the multiplayer with two randoms and having a grand time
Actually, can't forget that World at War and Roads to Victory were also WWII Games, despite being in different universes with the classic games.
Hey, Gggmanlives I have to say you are a big inspiration to me and without you I probably wouldn't of started youtube, thanks alot man I love your review of this too
I love that you have made a video on like every FPS ever man I absolutely love your videos
that was the first CoD I ever played on the Wii....the only one I played so far.
and I love the M1 Garand too!
I would really like a PC version of this. I'd buy it easily.
The most intriguing thing about this game for me is that it's the only COD game that has fully drivable vehicle segments. In future COD games, driving vehicles would either be on rails or heavily funnel where you can go. Granted, the driving segments look linear too but there seems to be a huge amount of freedom on where you can drive and how much control you have.
On that note, the multiplayer also has drivable vehicles. I'm very confused why this series dropped that idea after COD3.
Incorrect, COD finest hour hade several tank sequences l.
United offensive had this online
Your Output is impressive!
I've bought old cod games for my og xbox (Finest Hour, Big Red One and 3), and replayed them all. Awesome games and CoD 3 might just became my favourite CoD campaign. It's doesn't feel on rails like many modern CoD games, and it's not as fast as (also amazing) pc's CoD2 - but you actually feel like you went through fight and not scripted event. And i love how campaign falls together in place nicely, and I haven't even noticed that whole that time i spent in normandy. Awesome game and awesome period of CoD history
I recently played this (xbox 360) and I agree. Not sure why this game is considered bad for a cod, I really enjoyed it. It was developed by Treyarchs own engine I think, so everything feels a bit different compared to the IW games. I actually really enjoyed how it felt, guns felt really powerful and fun to use, and the sound overall was fantastic. Missions were pretty varied and tough (played on veteran) but not impossible by any means.
It is not a perfect game but a really fun WW2 expereince. Very few WW2 games these have a campaign, and I love WW2 games which is why I bought cod 3 btw. I know in this era the market was completely oversaturated with WW2 shooters and people were tired of them. Now its kinda the opposite, mostly modern or futuristic games which I don't like as much.
Thank you for the awesome content as always
This was my favorite COD. I loved playing online and actually needing a medic and being able to find and drive vehicles around the map. Campaign is also great and I still go back and play once a year.
Remember playing this game a bunch when it came out, remember it being awesome. Tried playing it a few weeks ago on my ps2 and couldnt get past the first mission because of the weird aiming. Did you have that? Might have to get it for my ps3. But awesome review, bro!
Good review. My biggest problem with it was how ridiculous the respawning enemies could be. If I remember correctly, one section had me trying to get through a small cabin, but every time I would get near the doorway it would trigger the game to send out like 20 guys. I know that's how CoD games are, but this game seemed to take it too far in some parts.
MP was also pretty good on this game. I liked it better than what CoD games have become. It just needed a few tweaks.
My all time favourite of the classic games and it’s a crime it didn’t get a pc release
is this playable at all without sixaxis or is there no option to turn it off? I'm using a 3rd party controller that doesn't have motion control
Call of Duty World at War Review ?
Did you ever play the first System Shock game? I would like to see a review from you to this "classic" (Even though the controls are awkward)
Nice review!This COD is my introduction to this series. :)
Ever considered making a review of Call of Duty: World at War? I know most people hate that game but It was the first CoD I ever played and I would like to hear your opinions about it...
Going from Call of Duty 2 Big Red One to this on the PS3 was amazing. The shader effects and improved textures were really impressive at the time. I remember seeing advertisements in magazines for this game and I honestly couldn't believe the screenshots were real. It was a different time
Please Gggmanlives, can you do a review of Call of Duty - World at War? I really like your chanel and your opinions and I would like to hear and see, what thoughts do you have of it.
I will in the future mate.
My favorite Call of Duty of all time!
Saaame
Have you reviewed Finest Hour and Big Red One?
You do know you can turn off sixaxis for QTE right? Also, I do like sixaxis feature.
I don't want another CoD game, i want THIS on the PC!
I do too but I also don’t want it remastered because it will make it known to all of the Black Ops 4 players of today which will ruin our secret game!
awesome review
Jeez those weapon models are huge. What FOV is that? 60?
So does this game work better on PS3? I'm having some trouble with it on Xbox 360.
This game had really good multiplayer. More Battlefield inspired and unique to the series. It had large open maps, a larger player count than any other CoD (32 per match I think as opposed to 16), and drivable vehicles. It was a pretty epic experience than was kind of a rarity for console multiplayer at the time.
You should do a review of Call of Duty: Finest Hour. It was their first attempt of a WWII Call of Duty game on the consoles. It's not without significant flaws, but I liked the attempt they made at fighting as or alongside specific and more memorable characters.
Anyone know if sixaxis can be disabled? I'm thinking of getting this but lost my ds3 controller a while back
Interesting that you like it that much. It had a very short development cycle (8 months IIRC) and according do most opinions I've heard, it shows.
I personally skipped it when I had a PS3 because I wasn't that much of a fan and was kinda annoyed by the health regen system in COD2. If I rebuy the console, I might get it out of curiosity...
I really loved the weapons in the game, espiacally the K98. Man...did I have a lot of fun with this weapon, due to its excellent ironsides, Long-range accuracy and high Level of Damage.
yeah the K98 was excellent in this game. I really liked the Lee Enfield too because it was so direct. Each shot was like stapling a bullet right into the enemy. The sub-machine guns on the other hand were quite difficult to use due to their strong recoil but it doesn’t mean they weren’t awesome lol.
6:05 - Oh I see what you did there :P
Polished hahaha
LOL
Would you please review Brothers in arms Hell's Highway ?
At some point I will.
Gggmanlives Might as well review the first 2 BiA games then too right? :]
Isaac Yoon Yeah, the first two are actually better, I think.
Andersen William
I dont know ..i have played Road to hill 30 and i really enjoyed it so i am looking forward to getting the 3rd one .... thats why i need a review.
Andersen William Couldn't agree more!
I did actually have this, COD 2 AND COD 4 on the Wii back in the day, and absolutely loved both of them.... Yeah, I know, I know... but to this day, I still found sniping with motion controls to be that much better and intuitive than some analog stick at the time.
Completed Medal of Honour Airbourne - got a real thirst for mid 2000's WW2 shooters hah. Gonna play this next!
juliuswhiteman it won't blow you away but it is somehow my favourite game of all time, similar to half life 2
played this on the WII great game enjoyed heaps
This is my first introduction to COD franchise and still one of my favorite during my childhood
Madjo 1999 Yo same
If this game and COD 2: Big Red One could get a remaster and a PC port I would be a happy man
My first cod game plus there where 3 other console exclusives for consoles. Big red 1, final fronts, road to victory
This may be my first Call of Duty purchase. Looks like a lot of fun.
this was the first call of duty game I've ever played
PI Is that an endorsement or warning ? (0.o) lol
Don't do it. Play Call of Duty 2 or Call of Duty 4. Don't start with CoD3.
Call of Duty 1 is still a masterpiece, it's really good. United Offensive expansion is also good. Then I would suggest you play Modern Warfare, Modern Warfare 2 (it gets a lot of hate for MP but SP was great), World at War and Black Ops before you attempt to play any other.
Victim of Lag COD3 is in all ways an improvement over COD2 and renders it unplayable, but COD1 IMO is better then 3.
You should do a review for Call of Duty 2: Big Red One for the sixth console generation. Shockingly good game, the first one made by Treyarch :) I personally played the ps2 version and enjoyed the hell out it :D
Could you do World at War? It's the best WWII game in the series and it's very impressive
Do you plan on doing any other CoD reviews? I'd like to see your opinion on Modern Warfare.
I reviewed Modern Warfare. I've also done COD1, COD2 Ghosts and AW.
Oh cool, thanks for the heads up.
This is my personal favorite Call of duty, the campaing is... just perfect for me, and the menu soundtrack when you are the final stage of Chambois is just epic, it Gives that feeling of being a hero. And the quick times events in ps2 are great for me, i wish Someone make a port to pc of this masterpiece
Actually, TreyArch's 'World at War' was the last WWII entry in the series. And that came out in 2008.
Also, CoD3 was also released on Nintendo Wii.
I know you made this 4 years ago but cod ww2 is the earliest ww2 game in the series
@@theinsaneone8975 CoD WW2 is made by Sledgehammer,not Treyarch,he talked about Treyarch's game.
Does anyone not realize that this comment was made before ww2 came out?
Are those Iron crosses replacing swastikas because of the australian version?
The frame rate in the PS3 version is not stable at all. And the Sixaxis motion controls can be disabled.
It's even worse on the PS2.
The PS2 version is nigh unplayable at times. It can drop to around 15-20 frames or even lower than that.
RustyLasagna The only benefit is the obvious lack of SIXAXIS controls.
MicroChirp
Even then, the use of the analog sticks to control the mortar is a pain in the ass.
Oh yeah, forgot the mortar part of the game. Haven't touched CoD 3 for years.
Hey Gggmanlives which do you prefer, Call of Duty 3 or Call of Duty 2?
+CountBaron I preferred Call of Duty because at least that game was released for PS3 unlike Call of Duty 2 which was an xbox exclusive bullshit.
Where is my Half-Life 2 and Quake IV reviews, gman? Will you ever do those?
It's coming, brother.
Gggmanlives Hey Gman when you do the Half-Life 2 review can you please also review the episodes that followed after it in the same video :) like you did with your F.E.A.R. one review :D
Gggmanlives Great, thank you, bro!
Quake IV review: Total fucking badassery ! just replayed it, still good
Game james it's not great, but it's still a good game.
how many consoles you have?
I played this game from start to finish countless of times and when I would talk to people about it they always thought I would be talking about COD MW3 since that was the only other COD game with a 3 in the title but when I would correct them no one heard of it and didn’t know it existed. It was a great game and I never understood why I was the only one in my class that knew about it
Love your Australian accent.
Is world at war gonna be reviewed?
I loved this when I was kid
You ever going to do COD World at War? (Cod 5) I appreciate the return to ww2 especially the epic soviet campaign for storming berlin
I had no idea that you had to shake the controller in this game on ps3, that would have made me very mad haha. I played on 360 and all I remember having to do is mash the triggers and I dont even remember the other button prompts lol
Wasn’t this on the Wii?
The six axis quick time events are really enjoyable on the 360. It was done by joy stick since the 360 had no six axis. But it was very creative and very well implemented on the 360. Rather than just pressing square or x it makes you more involved in the game. More involved actions needs to be implemented in modern shooters.
Sonny G, you're forgetting that the tiny Wii had this game too (and I actually have it in my collection).
im so pissed this hasnt come out on pc. trying to relive my childhood here treyarch
3 years later still pissed off !!!
Personally I'll always find this game to be the best because at least on the Wii it had bonus features that helped flesh out the setting such as war stories from actual veterans of the Falaise-Argentan pocket, character bios, and historical profiles on both weapons and vehicles. I wonder if they still have them on the 360 version?
If you like the M1 garand and have an ear for good sound desing you should definetly play Bad Company 2. The bark that gun has in that game is awesome sauce.
The multiplayer was pretty good at the time as well. Like a more arcade like version of CoD : United Offensive multiplayer.
You should review The Saboteur!
To be fair, the SixAxis quicktime events were only an issue in the PS3 version and I suppose you could count the Wii version.
For a game made in 8 months, CoD 3 was a great game. It did lack some of the finer details of CoD 2 such as realistic reloading mechanics and overall was a more glitchy game due to the lack of development time.
I wanted to play this again so bad but my ps2 is dead and the cd is broken. I wish it was ported to pc :( this was the best CoD ive ever played it was emotional and heartfelt this sit in my heart next to CoD big red one
Good review bro, this game is fun! That's what's it is about.
This CoD deserves WAY more recognition than it gets.
Whole heartedly agree with this, one of the best games on the Xbox 360 and a great addition to the WW2 storylines of Call of Duty. Including the Canadians, Polish and French was a real high point.
FYI the "Black Baron" apparently was Michael Wittmann though obviously he wasnt in a Tiger II, he was in a Tiger I
can the annoying music be turned off?
Playing shooters with a controller is bad, but playing it with a PS3 controller is even worse. I loved CoD 1 and 2, and it sucked that I didn't get to play this. I would happily pay for a remake on PC.
Playing this with a mouse and keyboard would be far more enjoyable than a controller...
you only need good hands
It's weird that they haven't ported it to PC yet. I mean how expensive would it be? And they'd undoubtedly make their money back. I can't stand playing shooters with controllers either..
Game james killzone 2 was my first shooter on console
And i complete it on medium difficulty
In beginning it was hard but then i adapt
Maybe someone could somehow get the files for a PC emulator?
I actually do find that the friendly AI is annoying. There are parts where i target an enemy, or toss a grenade, and my allies go right in front of my shot, or go right where my grenade lands, and i get a friendly fire screen. Not the worst to complain about, but it is a common thing.
I still remember the E3 showcase trying to make the QTE's look like the next best thing in gameing. Ironically lucky I was to have played this on the PS2 where the QTEs were used with the shoulder buttons instead.
This game’s reload animations and weapon models honestly are better than most modern games.
I just remember not getting past the first level on the WII version
the final polish mission was a brutal mission, watching your friends that you just met die and seeing a sadness in the polish major
This was my first cod game because it was rated T, was a fun experience at the time
The weapon models/animations id say are better than world at war which is really weird because youd think theyd improve from the older to the later game
isnt there a wii version?
you know after watching this review this makes me want to go buy the game beat it and just pay attention to the story because I thought cod 3 was dull but it looks like I was wrong because cod 3 has a personality and unlike cod 1 and 2 thats great
man I remember my parents picking up this game with Black, and Gun and those were the games that I played when I was like 7
Such a shame how slept on the first 3 call of duty games are.
I started on this when I was 4 on my ps2.
