Reviewing a Call of Duty game is a lot like making love to a beautiful woman. Barely anyone believes or cares what you tell them about it, and you end up with sore thumbs regardless. Nevertheless, here we go.

The thing with most of the ‘bigger' titles being released right now is that we are getting current and next gen versions. Seeing as the PS4 and XBOX ONE aren't quite ready for shipping yet, we'll be looking at the current gen version, but hope to bring you coverage of the next gen version at some...

Maps have increased verticality and variation; Perks system allows greater customisation; Blitz; Hunted and Infected modes to lighten the mood
