Call of Duty: Ghosts

From an exuberant campaign full of spectacle and variety to the way Extinction's unpredictable aliens force you to use those targeting skills in entirely new ways, Ghosts strikes an excellent balance between the familiar and the novel. This is a game that's keenly aware of the series' strengths, but doesn't find itself beholden to them. No matter what standard you apply, Call of Duty: Ghosts is a terrific first-person shooter.

To some, the proposition of “on-rails” first-person shooting is too limited, but to others, it’s the perfect outlet to turn off your brain and let this rollercoaster take you for a ride. Call of Duty: Ghosts is a finely-tuned game that offers loads of quality entertainment for those interested, it just isn't reinventing the wheel.

Simply put, Call of Duty: Ghosts is a game that pushes the franchise forward, especially in the multiplayer department. That giant leap we saw when the original Modern Warfare game touched down is not quite there, but yet in a time when the development team had to stick handle a game what would be a released on 5 different consoles (Wii U, PS3, PS4, Xbox One and Xbox 360), Ghosts is an impressive feat.
