Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3

Greetings and welcome to the first blog update of the New Year. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 is the last instalment in the Modern Warfare series and follows the same storyline that the other 2 prequels put into motion. While I believe that it is a perfectly good game, it suffers from repetitiveness as one of its problems.  The majority of it is set in cities such as London and Paris which gets a little tiring as a good portion of number 2 was located inside invaded American cities, which feels much the same.

The plot isn’t that complicated as it has only a few threads to follow. At the end of Modern Warfare 2, America and Russia are in conflict after a CIA operative was framed and murdered for a massacre in a Russian airport. As the Russian army is pushed out of America they decide to invade Europe’s key cities using biological weapons and their armed forces, the other side of the storyline is to hunt down and kill the villain behind the new World War, ultranationalist Makarov who sought revenge for the fall of his country. The campaign last only for a few hours, with the main selling point being the multiplayer aspect.

Few of the main characters return to the story mode from previous games such as Soap MacTavish and Captain John Price, leaving the game with a lack of strong appeal as the characters have very little personality compared to the likes of NPCs in other games. As usual, it is visual pleasing experience with big sweeping landscapes to explore for enemy intelligence. At the end of the day it is a good game that is quite enjoyable in the main storyline but it starts to feel a little repetitive.
