Medal of Honor no one really plays anymore. COD4 is interesting however I hope it will not be such a failure, if they do it right. The console technology is not that different from that of a computer which kinda makes me want to kill the programmers that make a game for consoles only. It should be the other way around.

The new GameInformer says the game will be on PS3/360 and PC at the same time this fall. It also has a lot more gameplay screens that make the game look REALLY good.

And if I know Infinity Ward I bet the PC version will not play like a total console port.

People have expressed fears of a poor console port, but from what i can understand, this is going to be PC only, at least at first. Hopefully this will secure decent multiplayer like the first COD had.


The game is coming out on all 3 major platforms.(PC, 360, PS3).

Yeah, but what i mean is that it will be developed for PC first, (and i still reckon be released on the PC first) and then ported to consoles.

I'd be shocked if it were the other way round.

Do you have a source that states this? I am pretty sure it's being developed on all 3 platforms simultaneously. I have a game magazine that is showing in-game screenshots of the game and it specifically states that all screenshots were from the Xbox360 development boxes.

Nope, I'm winging it. I read somewhere or other that it was PC first but i don't know where and i guess that just fueled my speculation.

Main reason i still believe this will be best on PC is that its back to Infinity Ward again, so i have high hopes they'll do us proud.

Oh... I have no doubt this will be best on a good PC.

PC Gaming FTW!

Updated main post with more info, mainly the Official word on how the campaign is going to be handled...

Call of Duty's campaign system, essentially playing through a number of small individual and independent scenarios stacked back to back, has been ditched, instead you have two storylines, one played from viewpoint of an SAS trooper and the other a member of US elite fighting force Force Recon, that interweave, with both plots coming together in a climax on Russian soil.

I didn't even know that COD 3 was a console only release, but come to think of it I never saw it for PCs. From what I heard it was no big loss. I actually might pick up Metal of Honor Airborne, though.

CVG have posted up their full interview with Infinity Ward's President Grant Collier which you can find here

I've updated the main post with key features mentioned in the interview in a bullet point fashion.
