I never played COD how does the campaign of Ghosts compare to Half Life 2 and Episodes. Even after all these years I still haven`t had a singleplayer shooter coming close to the sheer joy I have when playing Half Life 2. Except maybe Bioshock 1.

I thought the OP was joking comparing Call of Duty campaign to Half Life 2 and Halo but people like different things i guess. The stregths of the franchise surely is multiplayer. Campaign portion is fun over the top romp fest which is not really a bad thing when done well. I just don't think they have anything memorable in this game. 

hmm. Ok then interest gone again. What I love about half life is the deep story and the way the story was told (no cutscenes) and the feeling that I was actually in that universe everything was just believable coupled with the fun gameplay of the gravity gun it is truly a masterpiece.  

I never gave COD a chance because I thought it would be mowing down one enemy row after another coupled with a shallow hollywood like story and alot of immersion breaking cutscences. This thread made me rethink my position for a short while. For Multiplayer I have to say I am not interested in any Military Shooter anymore I played so much Battlefield I can not see Classical Multiplayer FPS anymore, maybe Destiny will change that. 

It varies quite significantly between games.

From Infinity Ward:

CoD 1 & 2 actually had quite good campaigns and had a level of respect for the history of the time period.

CoD4 (MW1) was actually pretty good. It had a pretty decent narrative, great level design and some brilliant "shock" moments. The following MW games were terrible by comparison and more in line with a Transformers film in story terms.

From Treyarch:

CoD3 was an insult to FPS', WaW was pretty poor, Black Ops 1 was all over the place storyline-wise but not bad per se. Black Ops 2 was an improvement imo, but I really didn't care for the other Treyarch developed CoD campaigns.

I haven't played Ghosts yet as I'm waiting for them to fix all the issues on PC before I get it.
