Looks great, sounds great
The remaster itself - incredible. Looks great, sounds great, plays wonderfully. It's aged alright; the core gameplay still holds up after all these years. However, keep in mind it is the simple and redundant formula that the series has recycled for a literal generation.
The concept - laughable.
First, Activision coerces us to drop $80 and buy Infinite Warfare just to play this.
Next, they add new weapons behind a supply drop paywall, tarnishing the original game and adding a pay-to-win element.
Then, they release maps that were included for free with the original game but slap a $15 price tag on them this go-around.
As if that all wasn't a big enough joke, now they release it as a standalone with timed exclusivity for $40, and the DLC isn't even included.
At some point I think Activision need to seriously reconsider their practices. Please don't buy this.
