Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare
Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, développé par Infinity Ward et publié par Activision, est sorti le 5 novembre 2007 sur PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 et Microsoft Windows. Quatrième opus principal de la série, il abandonne le cadre de la Seconde Guerre mondiale des précédents jeux pour se dérouler à l'époque moderne. Le joueur y incarne le sergent John « Soap » MacTavish de la S.A.S. britannique et le sergent Paul Jackson des Marines américains, tous deux engagés dans un conflit fictif visant à empêcher Khaled Al-Asad et Imran Zakhaev d'utiliser une arme nucléaire. L'intrigue, plus proche d'un film avec des récits entrelacés, marque une rupture avec le découpage en campagnes par pays des anciens titres. Une version Wii sous-titrée Reflex Edition et développée par Treyarch a suivi en 2009, et le jeu a donné lieu à deux suites, Modern Warfare 2 en 2009 et Modern Warfare 3 en 2011.
La presse a salué la qualité du titre, Official Xbox Magazine jugeant qu'il fait tout juste et GamePro affirmant ne trouver aucun défaut à ce shooter. Certains joueurs sur Metacritic et Steam soulignent l'aspect « fun » des missions, l'intérêt du multijoueur ou la valeur durable du jeu sorti en 2007. L'opus a reçu un score Metacritic de 92 et une note agrégée de 90,04.

Avis des critiques et joueurs
Critiques de la Presse (Metacritic)
« Simply put, Call of Duty 4 does everything right and nearly nothing wrong. But where it elevates itself above even the best 360 shooters is how all of the good stuff is ludicrously good. The campaign never lets up, while multiplayer is a triple-A affair in itself. [Dec 2007, p.36] »
« I seriously cannot think of a single flaw in CoD4, and trust me, I looked for them. From the amazing graphics to the intense and compelling single-player campaign to the feature loaded and addictive multiplayer, this game has it all. »
« This shooter is so addictive, gorgeous (both visually and aurally) and unrivaled that it demands your immediate attention. »
« Start to finish, online or off, Call of Duty 4 is solid gold. Some might decry the single-player’s short length or that it’s more of the same, but its amazing quality and the Arcade mode...more than make up for it. Infinity Ward has delivered on every front, and there is no question in my mind that this is the best action shooter that I have ever played. »
« It's a rarity to play a game as highly polished and as well-crafted as Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare. We cannot recommend it enough and fans of the series are getting just what they've been wishing for since "CoD2" released over two years ago. »
« Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare shows that you don’t have to revolutionize a series to invigorate it. »
« Rarely does a game shine in every area and accomplish everything it sets out to do. Call of Duty 4 is unquestionably one of those rare titles...It may not revolutionize the shooter genre, but it comes damn close to perfecting it. »
« Much like they did in Call of Duty 2, the developers at Infinity Ward have set the new standard for scripted cinematic spectacle. »
Avis des Joueurs (Metacritic)
« C'est un excellent call of duty, missions variées, très fun. Il ya un bon remaster je crois auquel je n'ai pas joué. »
« I remember playing this back in the day in 2020 a ps4 remaster! Best game ever on god. »
« Where the years of slop started!! pretty fun game nonetheless, is there really a big **** ferris wheel in chernobyl? »
« Aparentemente eu faço parte da minoria de pessoas que detestou esse game, um jogo fraco, com gráficos obsoletos para 2007, sendo que nessa época os gráficos já eram muito melhores, não tem destaque algum, pode ter sido o primeiro game da franquia a trazer um combate mais moderno, mas não fez nada além disso, talvez a nota alta seja basicamente por terem inovado com o combate moderno? Não sei, mas eu não gostei, o jogo é chucro, a história é tão simples que dá sono, as fases quase sempre são identicas, trilha sonora esquecível, teve apenas uma parte no meio do game que tocou uma música boa e nos créditos, fora isso foi péssimo, além disso o Spawn infinito de inimigos colabora para ser um jogo medíocre que precisa apelar para tal descaso na esperança de aumentar a dificuldade de forma desonesta, os cenários são bonitos mas nada tão graficamente belo para sua época, não é um jogo totalmente horrível, mas também não é bom ao nivel que eu querer jogar novamente algum dia, é aquele game que você termina uma vez e engaveta pra sempre, enfim, essa é minha opinião, eu recomendo para quem é fã da série, mas se você é do tipo que gosta de se sentir foda em jogos de tiro, esse ira lhe frustrar, sendo um dos jogos mais desonestos da franquia, dado a dificuldade abusiva e mecanicas horriveis como atirar por dentro da parede. »
« Talk about an all-time classic. Truly one of the most groundbreaking and industry defining video games ever made. With so many firsts for the gaming industry, it’s hard to not ignore. From the groundbreaking campaign, to the iconic multiplayer, to the firsts like create a class, camos, and the fast-paced gameplay, there is a lot to say when it comes to the important, impact, and legacy of Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, that there is so much to absolutely love no doubt. Modern Warfare, while not absolutely perfect, is no better than that of a near-perfect score of a 9.5 out of 10. Truly a fantastic game that still stands the test of its time still to this day. »
« 9.6 – Call of Duty 4 revolutionizes the series with modern combat, cinematic set pieces, and tight, responsive gameplay. Its story, pacing, and multiplayer redefine the FPS genre. »
« [SPOILER ALERT: This review contains spoilers.] »
« I can say that this game is the father of story-driven FPS titles. It offers a great experience with its timeless design. However, the aiming mechanics feel inconsistent and difficult to play when they are ported from consoles to PC. »
