All told, Call of Duty: World at War is a great first-person shooter and undoubtedly among the best that the Wii has to offer. The controls are smooth, responsive, and immersive, despite a few sundry hang-ups.

Gritty; exciting story; Engaging online multiplayer; Well-mapped control system; Detailed; immersive environments; Novel two-player cooperative mode

Some control hang-ups; Limited online multiplayer modes

Call of Duty: World at War is a difficult game to evaluate. It succeeds and struggles in ways that seem strange. The presentation is superb, but the graphics are subpar. The control and gameplay are fun, but the longevity is almost non-existent.

Good action; Great control; Great voice acting

Lack of online variety; Unimpressive graphics

Sure, the Wii won't give you the most dazzling Call of Duty: World at War experience, but that's the worst we can say after spending some time with this baby. There are times in life when we advance opinions without having a rock-solid basis for comparison. This isn't one of those times.

Call of Duty goes back to World War II, one of the most tired and over used wars of all time, and this time Treyarch is back on board to make Call of Duty: World at War. As much as this game was set up to fail in comparison to Call of Duty 4, since Treyarch made the hated Call of Duty 3, and is set...

When you consider that they all seem to follow a formula -- one modeled aesthetically after "Saving Private Ryan" -- it's not surprising that some people have grown tired of World War II first-person shooters.

One of the most realistic World War II shooters to ever hit the PC gaming market, Call of Duty went beyond any of our expectations. Brilliant graphics, outstanding gameplay, and gripping themes are only the tip of the iceberg on this incredible game.

My son loves this. He played and played for hours. This may help him to think about joining the service to fight for our country in the future who knows. I recomend this game for teens. :D

This is a great game, my son loves it; however, be sure you buy the Wii Zapper or you can't use it!

I'd love to see more Wifi games like this. It;s a whole new World with a nyco 45 pistol body.

This game is killer; Online play beats Games Play all day long; People are always doing different things so it never gets boring

Graphics could be better; for long range shots if you don't have a 46 or larger flat screen you will think screen artifacts are helmets and waste ammo

Fear of the war is often transmitted.
