I liked COD2's campaign the best. Playing as a Russian was a refreshing take on World War 2.
I'm not all that into first-person shooters, so most single player segments of FPS games tend to bore me to tears, especially if the game is based in 'realism'.
Pain is an illusion of the senses, Despair an illusion of the mind.
The Tainted - Pending
I sold most of my miniatures, and am currently working on bringing my own vision of the Four Colors of Chaos to fruition
Medal of Honor had one where you played as paratroopers, pretty good game. Wish they would've done better but then again I got the PS2 version of it instead of the PS3 or 360 version.

CoD original
The scene where you are in the fountain in WAW is pretty much exactly like a scene from Enemy at the Gates.
Oh yeah it is isn't it?
I was actually thinking of the Carentan mission/multi-player map (which is building for building ripped from Band of Brothers. Even the MG is in the same place), and the opening of Enemy at Gates which is also ripped straight. Frankly the boys over at Infinity Ward are lacking in originality, but they made up for it with excellent execution and polish

I'm talking about the first game, which was superb in almost every way. I can off the top of my head think of no complaints against it. CoD2 was much the same. CoD3 was just a console based expansion for CoD2 to make up for the multiplayer on consoles. CoD4 was the last really good CoD game in my opinion. It's been all down hill since then and the quality and polish of the series has dwindled away into nothing.
Yeah, at one point the Polish tank crew leaves the tank and run into the radioman for the Canadian forces. THe radioman takes his sergeant's talk about being brave to heart.
The polish guy tells the canadian radioman to leave, canadian radioman says he should be brave, canadian radioman is shot and killed, polish guy asks you to cover him as he takes the dead radioman's radio. Good times.
I hated CoD3. It just felt awkward control wise after CoD2. That and I opposed paying $60 for a new game when they should have been focused on fixing the fact that console CoD2 multiplayer was from 1995.
