PC Xbox 360

Call of Duty 2 is the first Xbox 360 to have the awesome honor to get a "first 10 minutes" on Xboxyde. And considering all the qualities of this great game, it's definitely worth being the first. Be warned though, my version was only in french, so all voices are dubbed in this video (ewww).

Does the game live up to expectations Blim? I hear your a fan of racing games so would value your opinion... A mini review would be cool too

I did not get my retail copy yet, so I really can't comment on the Live gameplay yet. The single player mode is nice, but quite short.

Great game, but more low res textures then i expected.
I'd like to see the same 10 minutes feature for Condemned :D

I had a technical issue with the capture. I think I have recorded this video about 10 times, and just stopped in disgust.

Hehe... you'll be watching 5 mins of cutscene followed by the cellphone evidence scanning thing you've already seen before then. (Assuming the demo I played at the 360 event was from the start of the game).

Blim, did I ever tell you you are my hero? This is just what I wanted, now all I need is the first 10 of PDZ, and my urge to play my retail copies sitting on my shelf waiting to be played on my non existent 360 will be subsided...for now.

Thanks Blim!
Mike

I'd rather see the second 10 min of PDZ, becuase the first 10 min is all over the place.

That would be the second level, since I've already shown most of the first level on my coop video.

This game is just perfect. The environment, the AI soldiers, the graphics and sounds...it all comes together to form such an engrossing experience. Anyone with an XBOX 360 should own this game.

Yea--it is a bit of a short game I suppose--but unfortunately 10 hours is pretty much average for this kind of campaign..most FPS games don't last more than 10-12 hours at the most..sort of ashame--it makes games w/o strong multiplayer components far less apealing.

Fortunately, COD2 has a pretty solid multiplayer component to it.

EDIT: The game however is far from perfect--it's damn good--but it has some pretty obvious level design flaws at times--the Tanker levels in particular drove me nuts with their pre-defined paths governed by invisible walls. These flaws are more than made up for by pretty much everything else though, so it's more than forgivable.

Best WWII game out at the moment, for sure. One of the best war games in years (perhaps BF2 is a better MP experience); and probably the best FPS on X360.

I'm currently playing on the 3rd difficulty level out of 4 (hardened). It's quite difficult. I can't imagine what the hardest difficulty level is like. :/
