Call of Duty 4 trailer released

The trailer for Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare has been released – you can download the 720p version via FilePlanet. It looks quite impressive and is definitely worth checking out if you’re a fan of the series. The download is a 35.3MB Quick Time Movie, with FilePlanet requiring free registration before you can download it (there may be queues). Apparently the footage is taken straight from the single player campaign so shows what gamers will actually be able to play - the game is also rumored to be PC only.

I hope it turns out to be better than CoD3...
That was HORRIBLE...

The quality of the video is a bit disappointing, but gameplay looks quite good if the final game turns out like that.

There was no CoD3 for the PC, it was console only (damn them). I am glad to see a new CoD installment for us PC gamers. Big fan of the series. If it is for PC only, I wonder if they will be calling it CoD4? That wouldn't make since in the PC series. If CoD3 sucked, it prob. is just as good it didn't make it to the PC.

Let the consoles get the crap games and save the best for the best, the PC.

COD3 was awful. Be happy it never touched the PC. I can't put a finger on what made it so bad, especially being the sequel to COD2. COD2 is still great. I can't remember how many times I have played through the whole campaign.

CoD4 looks great, but so did CoD3...
graphics dont make the game. game play does.

hmm...
being shot through walls, dumbass npc's throwing grenades at their teammates, messed up hitboxes, and having objectives telling you to do things the game wont let you dont exactly add up to a 5-star game...

wiak was referring to the ones on gametrailers.com, I believe. The one on tpu is likely the same one as on fileplanet.

FPS and console do not mix with me, BOTTOM LINE!
The game pad used in consoles works well with everything except FPSers .

Games like GTA are the only shooters that work ok with consoles - driving games are definitely better with a pad, but FPS have to be mouse and keyboard. Another reason why PCs > consoles.

COD in the 21st Century ? Thats enough to make it a hit.
However i still dont like the way the soldiers hold the weapons and run...Reminds me of the first COD.

Finally, the WWII franchise is over.

I like modern war, hence the 600+ hours on BF2.

"Normal" people do not have the money to perpetually upgrade their PC to keep up with games. That is the entire idea behind consoles. While agree the PC is the better of the lot, 99% of the population does not buy $600 video cards on a regular basis.
