Nick Breckon from Shacknews, managed to playtest a single-player demo for Call of Duty: World at War. What did he think about it? Read on to find out.
The single-player demo I got a look at was typical Call of Duty fare. Beginning in some kind of torture hut, a Japanese soldier hacked and slashed his way through numerous POWs, working toward the player's first-person head. Of course the player makes his escape, and proceeds to follow a squad of fellow marines through a jungle warzone.You can find his full preview over at Shacknews. World at War is slated for release on the Xbox 360, PS3, PS2, Wii, Nintendo DS, and the PC come this Fall.
Using the same engine as Call of Duty 4, World at War looked predictably sharp. Light beams shining through the dense jungle and other whiz-bang explosions were on display. Speaking of that jungle, the soldiers wore camouflage that seemed to blend in even better than Solid Snake, a nice touch.
