Game to Discuss?
This week, let's discuss Call of Duty, the very first one. Today, it's interesting mostly as an object of comparison with newer CoDs. Most of the key features of the series today are totally absent. There are no zombies, no schizoid plots, no ugly fricking cosmetics. Discuss, and vote below in the pinned comment.

Call of Duty 1 is one of those games you had to be there for I guess. Not a lot of people have played it these days and if you go back you'll find it's pretty janky.
Supposedly what set it apart was being able to fight alongside a lot of AI allies instead of slugging it out by yourself a la earlier Medal of Honor games. There are still a lot of times where you fight by yourself though
Tbh I think it was COD 2 that really secured the series' future, though it was already a big deal then. COD 2 was taken pretty seriously as a launch title for the 360.
And on that note COD is an underrated example of a series that started on PC but migrated primarily to consoles
As for COD 1, one thing I appreciate is that sidearms are actually in their own slot so you don't have to choose between a pistol and a much more versatile weapon. Not sure why they did away with that. Not good for console controls maybe?
It's also one of the hardest veteran campaigns. Not only do you have finite health, but there are no health packs on veteran either. You really do have to go through the whole level with one health bar.

That was my experience with CoD - the bits where you're participating on these big battles with AI allies were fun (e.g. the opening of the US and USSR campaigns) but you always eventually ended up by yourself. I'd seen everything I needed by like the half way point of the Ruski campaign and never finished it. I remember the British campaign being a particularly tedious slog.
