Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare Atlas Limited Edition - PlayStation 4

To start out with, I have previously played Call of Duty: Black Ops I and Call of Duty: Ghosts, and I rented this game from Family Video and really enjoyed playing it, so I decided to get the Atlas Pro edition of this game, because it was then at $25 which seemed like a great price for everything it included (the basic game, the soundtrack, a few map expansions and some extra equipment, an art book, and a steel case). As far as the basic game itself, it is easily one of my favorite Call of Duty games. The maps, in my opinion, are very interesting and fun to play. Many people say that the Call of Duty games are repetitive, and I have noticed this even just having played three games from the series. However, I do not think this is a bad thing - every new Call of Duty game is essentially just a new map pack (with a new story that I, and probably most Call of Duty players, do not bother looking into much), so that playing the Call of Duty first person shooter does not get boring being stuck in the same environments. That said, they introduced "exo-suits" in this game which allow you to jump very high, and at least a few Amazon reviewers have criticized this addition. I like this addition, because it offers something extra that past Call of Duty games didn't have and makes this a little less repetitive than previous ones. Not only are there new environments, but there is a new-ish style of play, too! Lastly with regards to the basic game itself, I read one review on here that mentioned that this game pales in comparison to the PS4 version. I do not have a PS4 so I can not make a comparison, but in comparison to other PS3 games, this game is definitely great!As for the Atlas Pro edition, it is definitely well worth the money, especially if you can get it for around the same $25 that I got it for (the $50 the game is currently at is definitely quite a bit worse a deal - if you can spare the money and are a huge Call of Duty fan, the Atlas Pro edition is probably worth it, but I likely would not have purchased it for $50). It comes with a few cool-looking cosmetic items, as well as a season pass and a free map. It also comes with a neat art book which I have not looked at too much yet but plan to at some point. My favorite part of the package has to be the steel book the game comes in - it looks great and feels very high quality. One warning: though it says the digital soundtrack is included, it actually is no longer included. I went to the website it listed and couldn't figure out how to get the soundtrack, and after a bit of googling, I found a place on the Advanced Warfare website that said that the digital soundtrack was only a pre-order offer and is no longer included. With how easy it is to stream music nowadays through services like Spotify and YouTube, I do not consider it a huge loss, but it is worth noting so that if you are reading this review, you know not to expect to be able to download the digital soundtrack. You can always enjoy listening to it on YouTube or Spotify, though!To conclude, Advanced Warfare is definitely a great game and the Atlas Pro edition is definitely worth $25 (a little bit less worth $50, though still worth it if you are a fan and have the money). I highly recommend Advanced Warfare and the Atlas Pro edition.

This is a good Call of Duty. For reference, I played Cod 1, 2, 3, Cod4, WaW, MW2, BO, MW3, BO2, Ghosts, and this. If you're wondering if you're going to like this, let me put it this way: If you enjoy CoD every year and even if you did not enjoy Ghosts, get this. If you haven't played in a few years and want to know if you should get back into it, get this. If you've never been a huge fan, don't bother. In the end, they added exo suits and the graphics are better, but it is essentially still a Call of Duty game.The graphics are amazing. I've played a bunch of next-gen games and this looks like one of the nicest. Call of Duty isn't known for graphics, but these are great.Gameplay is not completely revamped, as some may say or you may expect. The exo suit jumping and abilities add to the experience, but it is not a jumping-only game and it will still feel familiar.Campaign has been fun so far. The settings and environments in it are unbelievably nice. It seems like it will get interesting as I'm not that far. This one, and all the ones before it, are like playing an action movie. They are not too emotionally deep or developed, but entertaining with some great moments.Multiplayer- this is what you want to hear. It's good. The colors remind me of BO2 online maps, and are nothing like Ghosts (good news). Loadouts are simple enough to understand and guns and perks are straightforward.If you enjoyed getting camos on your guns in other Call of Duty's this may be disappointing. Gold is the easiest one to unlock, and everything else is ridiculously hard to achieve. Just to get some jungle-like camos you need 200, 300, 400, 500 headshots. I am not trying to use one gun for the duration I play this game. This is not fun to achieve, and is bad planning on their part.Spawning is ok, I've spawned in front of people a few times and so have they. The problem is starting a game when you already see someone, and that does not make sense. I usually judge harshly based on this, but in my experience they always fix it within a few weeks and it becomes more manageable.
