Anyone else having more Live connection issues tonight? Can't seem to join games.
Edit; in fact, everything seems a bit bodged on live. Anyone else?

Just completed Epilogue on Veteran, yay!

Indeed it is great. I just wish they would fix the multiplayer, I need need my fix.

Yay! finally started playing and am having fun! Was really worried as i loathe console FPS's, but this is great!!
havent played anything like cod4 in a long time.
I'm about halfway through and lost the urge to carry on in SP. I don't think the SP is very good at all. The re-spawning enemies is stupid. You end up having to get to an area to cut off enemies rather than winning a shootout.
You call in air support to clear an area and it's pointless, they just re-spawn. Until I realised that I thought the atmosphere of the game was great but now I know it's just a case of killing a couple then running to the cut off line.
Thats pretty poor for my money.
I think it's pretty much a duff SP game but the MP has been well thought out. I dont think I will keep it for long.

I'm not as impressed with the SP as I was in that of CoD2, but I didn't expect to be either, MP is deffinately way way better though.
I can't put this damn thing down!

just finished CoD4.
honest opinion after the initial "wow! omg this is great!"...i quite enjoyed it. it was a bit annoying in places with the constant re-spawn of enemies, but hey i preferred it to CoD3, but not CoD2.
the multiplayer is very promising and it'll be worth keeping just for that.

Loving COD4. SP was great, if a little short. People always seem to say SP is short in FPS games, but up until COD4 I've found them reasonably lengthy. It was just great though and I'll definitely go through it a few more times. MP has been good so far. I love the challenges. A big fan of ticking boxes and unlocking stuff 
Used to love Battlefield with the medals stuff, and this takes it one stage further with useful bonuses.

The multiplayer is down yet again.. this is the 3rd time i've seen it go down since I bought the game on Sunday. Sort it out!.. the beta should have prepared things with the MP.

what a pile of crap this game is....been stuck on the missile abort part for the past few days and i just cant do the flippin level.
Had enough of this game, i forgot how stupidly hard it can be...had this problem with COD3 and COD2 both which i hated. Yeh the graphics are nice but the gameplay is rubbish imn sorry to say. GRAW and GRAW2 are much much better gameplay wise than this pile of crap...in this game you cant even peek around the corners so your always kinda out in the open when you get into a gun fight. This game just annoys the freakin hell out of me....rubbish absolute rubbish

Wow, just wow!! really REALLY loving this now!! Told myself i'd have an hour, must have been 4+ now (Game's paused, i'm going back to it shortly!) The missions are really bringing back memories of when i used to play Rainbow 6 in the Rogue Spear era, and one of the Street levels (I think the War Pig one?) has my mind set back to the first level of Black from a few years ago!
Great great game, looks gorgeous!! Although i am feeling kinda cursed, having already had my face blown off by terorists (President) and dying in a nuclear blast Ah well, live & learn!! go Soap go! lol
Wheeee!!

it doesn't make it crap just because YOU can't do it.

Oh my god, look at the mess you just made young man, toys are EVERYWHERE! Go and pick them up, your having no chocolate tonight, it's straight to bed after bath time for you.
Seriously, how the hell is that even remotely comparable to a game review? You are unable to do it, so flame it. Would you love Winnie the Pooh games because they were easy? Perhaps you don't like the game for other reasons, perhaps your post was an anger one, but from what i read, it just seems to be a vent, verbal diarrhea if you will.
Take your time on the missions, unless the clock is ticking you don't have to rush. Use the correct tool for the job; Grenades, switch guns with ones from dead enemies, etc. Use the auto-aim feature in battle, tap it, followed by trigger when in close gun fire for a quick lock-on.

Respawn is pretty irritating, wouldnt be too bad if maybe you had to kill 3 times as many people if you didnt advance as quickly but its infinite it seems.
My friend played it tonight and was advancing a bit at a time, clearing men from windows etc, but he ended up just stuck behind a car killing the same people over and over. Takes a little bit away from the game IMO, its not like our boys in Iraq are just running as far forward as they can Im sure there just as cautious as my mate was tonight
Whats better is when you get to a certain point, then some of the people who were there when you ran past suddenly disappear

I do wonder about the respawn. I can see exactly why it's a bad thing and why it shouldn't be in the game, but I can also see why it could have been left in. There are several sections in the game where you can crouch in a relatively safe position and pick everyone off. If they continually respawn, the game is forcing you to move on and to put yourself in dangerous situations to progress. It's not ideal in my opinion and there could be other ways to deal with it, but that *may* be a reason they've got it in there.
