Call Of Duty: WWII (2017)

Technically very impressive but as per usual with COD it's a floaty shooting gallery with too many fiddly gimmicky mechanics and a bunch of annoying QTEs and tank battles and crap. Also, all the big setpieces are first-person cutscenes, which is disappointing. I had imagined being able to run through that big 'church exploding with big bell shooting out into the courtyard' bit, but no such luck. The writing is all bland cliche and, for all the tech on display, it rarely looks that good. Just another step closer to photorealism without any real aesthetic.

I got about halfway through before giving up out of boredom.

Rating: Meh.
