Customer Reviews

Dated but still a great port!
For those of you who don't know, Call of Duty Classic is a port of the original Call of Duty for the PC back in 2003 to the Xbox 360 and PS3. Here's what I think about it:

Gameplay: 8/10
It's basically the same COD gameplay that you'll find in the later COD titles. However, you lack the ability to sprint in this game, and you use health packs instead of having regenerating health. The health pack system is good at making things a challenge, but it can get annoying every once in a while.

Graphics: 6/10
It's a 2003 game. I know that it's not going to have ultrarealistic graphics but I feel that they could have at least gone back and made it look a little bit nicer. In a side by side comparison, I could see almost no difference between the 360 version and the PC version with settings on high. The game can also get really dark in some areas making it hard to see, and it lacks any brightness options.

Sound: 6.5/10
I actually think that the sound unimproved a bit over the original. The original COD was loud, and the sound effects were great for its time. The gun sound effects in this game are pretty pathetic.

Single Player: 8.5/10
I really liked the single player in this game. I think the single player in the later COD games (COD4 in particular) are very boring and not worth playing through more than once or twice. The game's single player takes place in three distinct campaigns, the American, British and Russian campaigns (all played in that order). The Russian missions are very fun and the most intense, the American missions are good but not as fun as the Russian ones, and the British campaign is just plain boring in my opinion, although the last British mission is pretty fun. The single player content is packed pretty big, the game is about two hours longer than COD MW2's campaign.

Multiplayer: 8/10
Not a whole lot of multiplayer to speak of. There are a few people playing, but most people would rather play MW2. The multiplayer was a big selling point of the original COD, but here it's not even worth trying out. Don't buy the game just for the multiplayer. I do like the maps though, and I wish MW2 had more maps like these.

Overall: 3.5/5 stars
COD Classic is a good port. Although it's dated graphics and soundwise, those who look past that will find a nicely polished single player campaign. If you're into single player content, then $15 is a pretty good price, but don't buy the game expecting a thriving multiplayer community. I wish I could give this 3.5 stars, but I'll just give it four.

Price: $15.00
