Better yet, have a dose of old school and get the Call of Duty Warchest, with 1, UO, and 2. Believe it or not, I still play multiplayer on the first even though it's been out for five years now. It's still a blast to play on the right servers.
Depends on two things: Do you have live and arep lanning on playing it or you doing this just for the story? Cuz its you dont have live its a complete waste. Call of duty 5 is great for both these. call of duty 4 sucks in my opinion get 5 you get the nazi zombies also.
CoD4 is much better than CoD5. CoD5 is completely boring online and Treyarch did a horrible job on changing the game from the previous; they used the same online engine with little improvements. Nazi Zombies is fun but it gets boring after a while, like most games do unless there is a variety of things to do. The online game modes aren't much different from CoD4; there are a couple more modes and that's about it. CoD5 has a messed up respawn, accuracy, recoil on the guns, etc. I could go on forever and I know there are people out there that will completely disagree with me. All I can say is that everyone has their own opinion. I believe CoD4 is better until CoD6 comes out.
um, i have to say... yes... If you can get both COD4 has a better multiplayer, and a very good storyline (if you are a true gamer and actually play the single player), but COD5 is more realistic and gives you a better representation of war. But i think the thread majority says go for 4!!!
