This is no doubt one of my favorite games of all time (well, right now, my top 5 are Super Smash Bros Brawl, Mass Effect, KotOR, Bioshock, and the Modern Warfare duo)
It's hard to give a graphical description of how it is, so I will rate it by different categories
Design: Outstanding campaign, strong multiplayer, and arcade mode is a nice touch. The campaign is the best part though; I've played the last mission so many times because of the way it shows the endgame so well and how dramatic it looks. It has you looking through your guy's eyes as he lies on the ground injured and sees the lead bad guy of the game start approaching you. Suddenly a helicopter explodes over his head and he turns around. During that time your captain tosses you his pistol from 10 feet away, and you are charged to make the last shots in your disoriented position! hard to explain, but you'll understand it when you play it and see every moment like this one.
Gameplay: This is the best part. As explained, the interaction is incredibly cinematic, everything is accurately put together, and there are plenty of distinct modern weapons with their attachments that you will grow to love using. The multiplayer in mass battles can be a bit messy, but with about 20 people it feels just right.
Graphics: unbelievable. Was runner up in most places to the best graphics of the year (Crysis, which unfortunately for COD came out in the same year, took it, that came consequently cannot look better). The developers really did a great job to make you feel like you are a soldier, with all the brilliant environments, animations, particle effects, and character models.
Sound: Great orchestrated music and nice sound effects. Unfortunately in this category I'm not sure how to say more than that.
Lasting Appeal: Nice hefty campaign with some replay value in it if you haven't beaten it on Veteran mode yet and you want to strive for it. Multiplayer will keep you going for a while as well.
THE BOX COPY IMPRESSIONS
There's not much that the box copy will do bad to you except for the fact that unless you have the disc inserted you can't play the single player. You can play multiplayer without it though.
Overall: Nice package, solid value in it, no doubt going to be a remembered instant classic. 5 stars is the most reasonable score I can give it.Get more detail about Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare Game of the Year Edition.
