Is the WW2 setting the only thing that's been making reviewers moan and whine so much? WaW's score was abit unimpressive, yet most reviews I've seen and read about it don't really explain what's bad about it except that it's WW2 again. The funny thing is my fav online shooter of all-time was CoD:UO, which was made from a team that formed Treyarch, was also WW2, and even got the same 8.7 score on Metacritic.
I was really surprised at how much hate the WW2 theme has been getting. Even after it's been done so much, I love it. The Russian campaigns of CoD tend to pull me in the most - they usually do a pretty good job at showing how bad they had it during WW2.
Anyways....what exacly made it get low'ish scores? The only 2 flaws I can remember people mentioning are somewhat bad AI and the Flamethrower which they called overpowered. I'm definitely picking up a copy tommorrow. I'll have to get CoD4 eventually also.
