Same! I played the hell out of it when the 360 first came out, I remember being stunned at how good the graphics were for the time. Hate feeling old when I'm not even out of my 20s lmao
I did in CoD 1 and 2 too and every other cod too , even in MOHAA breakthrough and Spearhead and allied Assault , I act like friends with bots but then I remember it's game , I always talk
The standards surely changed till then, but for its time, it's truly looking very good! This game felt so consistent in its visuals, the world textures feel very nicely combined, the props and entity models blend very nicely as well, the lighting, although aged, works fine for what it is and yeah! It does look good! No wonder COD games until BO2 had that COD2's feeling in them. COD1 may have started the franchise, but COD2 started the main COD engine.
What really cracks me up me about this game is the "watch out! Enemy grenade" line. As if when you have a grenade at your feet about to explode it makes a difference who threw it.
Welcome to my ted talk. Today we'll be talking about the grenade at your feet. Where did it come from? Why is it there? What does it do? We will soon find out-YOU HAVE BEEN KILLED BY A GRENADE, WATCH OUT FOR THE GRENADE DANGER INDICATOR.
Man those were the days. I remember seeing a buddy of mine play this when the 360 first came out my 8th grade year and I was just stunned at how good it looked. The lighting, effects like fire and smoke particles, and the detail of the environment were far beyond anything I had ever seen before. The graphical leap between the original Xbox and the 360 just can't be overstated, it was huge. The game was really good too, multiplayer was a blast!
@@TonyMichaels166 Yeah Halo 3's lighting and shading still holds up extremely well, the main thing that let it down was the character models but apart from that, damn fine looking game to this day 👌
I appreciate the simple "people did this." during the Pointe du Hoc landing. No OTT youtuber reaction, just paying respect to the reality the game is emulating
I remember this being my Christmas gift along with an xbox 360 back in 2005. My jaw hit the floor by how much better the game's graphic fidelity looked compared to last gen CoD games.
I have not played COD 2 but I IMMEDIATELY recognize the voice of Cpl. Dima (Russian). He played Pavel Morozov, one of the main "Red Line" characters in METRO: Last Light. I think it was Mark Ivanir.
I applaud your effort replicating the Eisenhower speech. It’s a piece of history and a iconic mission opening to an iconic game, so I’m unironically glad you did that.
What can I say about COD2... It's truly a masterpiece. For me it still stands between some of the best COD games. The simplicity in its gameplay made it so solid that feels good to revisit it on veteran even to this day. I myself had replayed it on veteran a few months ago and it was a blast. Sure it has the moments where it saves right before you die, and grenade spam, but besides that it's very fun to play if you chose to go in slow pace taking cover to cover, peeking through corners, using rifles for longshots and saving ammo, and smgs for closeups, and STG/BAR/BREN for both! The guns, although deep down unbalanced, feel right, rifles feel like rifles, smgs like smgs, and so on. The chaotic mission design makes it very authentic as well, despite the unavoidable historical inconsistencies that every game has now and then. Thing is, that when those "inaccuraciess" are so trivial, it doesn't take away from the authenticity of the experience. Something newer ww2 games suffer from. Very happy you had fun with this, it's one of my top favorites, and having revisited it on veteran multiple times in the last few years, I have to welcome you to the club! And Merry Christmas!
This game taught me English. I have memorized nearly all of it's lines. More importantly this game introduced me to German. After learning some more i was blown away with the German quotes. Because they are not random. They give each other real time information about your position. Play this in German and modern warfare modes. You won't be dissapointed.
the context and info presentations before missions are so much more entertaining to me than normal cutscenes. hearing and seeing how people actually fought this war cant really be topped by fiction
1:35:40 hearing the German voices when you find the guns is actually such a nice detail. Historically, the the 2 GI's that found and spiked the guns did so right under the nose of a German platoon getting their attack orders from their officer in the ajacent field, which is what you hear :)
@@gooseegg617 Really was more of a technical limitation than anything. It's why there aren't ever that many enemies on screen in MoH1, and why MoH Underground's framerate would tank sometimes, trying to push more enemies on screen than the system could comfortably handle. And there wasn't really any other shooter on the market, save Rainbow Six on PC, that had you fighting alongside allies. It was just part of FPS design at the time. Given the time, the first few MoH games were amazing. And they're honestly still fun, I've been playing them the last few days - it just takes extra effort to suspend your disbelief. CoD definitely blew them all away when it came out, though.
Considering he just did MoH:AA recently, I'm reminded why I don't play MOH:AA and its expansion packs on HARD. Breakthrough as a kid made my ass into no-man's land ON EASY. Also, saying MOH sucks kind of hurts my inner child, that was my childhood and I still own my PS1 copies of MOH/MOH:Underground. I still got nightmares from those goddamn dogs in Panzerknacker Unleashed!
This was my first experience with COD as a kid. I was blown away by this campaign, and it also sparked my interest in actual WWII history, as I am Jewish too.
Fun fact: Some of the German soldiers in the Europe levels are actually Spanish "Blue Division" volunteers. You can tell because of the Spanish flag on the side of their helmets. They're not supposed to be present on the western front. They only volunteered for the eastern front. That was a stipulation set by Francisco Franco. Still it's nice they were included in the game.
This was my first COD game and it made me fall in love with the series ever since, Also the first time where I met the Legend himself, Captain Price. Man! The nostalgia😪
I hated vet on cod 2, no running / nade spam, but my greatest memory was at the end of level were you attempt to take out a tiger in a german town at night, towards the end were you reach the final house, i walked(no sprinting mechanics) so hard that i actually went behind the German spawn point and mowed down a whole npc line with a mp44, the burst of dopamine i got was strong, such a solid memory! Such a fun game
I literally just FOUND and then INSTALLED my original COD (2003) game on Windows 10... 2 CDs... etc... I can't believe you JUST uploaded COD and now COD 2 (10 days ago) - NICE VIDEOS! I liked & subbed...
It took me a solid month to finish this super long video but it was a good ride from start to finish! Hoping COD 3 will be the next one you tackle, I remember playing the demo of it as a kid on my 360 a million times because I never got the game myself
This made me nostalgic even though I was a Medal of Honor kid back when these games were coming out. Hey, maybe 10 years from now when you finish the rest of the COD campaigns, you can go back and play the Medal of Honor games on their hardest difficulties.
Don't know if you realized it, but you can use the binoculars in the tank missions to fire at distant targets. I was yesterday years old when I realized that.
Could you play cod 2 big red one? I know many people think it's bad, but it was my first cod and it's my favorite. I would love to see you play it on veteran.
I dont think people say its bad, its just that its a console exclusive which cancels out a huge part of the community then and especially now. I personally really want to play it, but im too lazy to set up the necessary steps to play it.
@@Hamentsios10 It's pretty mediocre in most aspects. The only thing it had going for it was a star studded voice cast and some unique factions/battles that weren't portrayed much in games (you fought the vichy french at the beginning and got to use some french guns which was cool, and the italians later).
My absolute favorite Call of Duty and a extremely underrated one at that! I played the campaign over and over when it first came out, lots of great memories..
I remember getting this game around 12 years old. I was at best buy. When I got home there was like 8 install disks, I remember it taking forever to get it downloaded on my old xp machine. It was a blast and I remember it fondly to this day
I remember when I first saw gameplay of COD 2 was when someone at Best Buy was playing the campaign demo they had on one of those Xbox stands. Coming from playing MOH: Frontline, I thought it was the most realistic and mind blowing graphics
played this when i was 6 in 2009, my dad worked at a pawn shop so he got this for me. This vid made me want to cry from nostalgia, and bringing my 360 to my grandmas house and playing while she makes supper.
CoD 2 was such a memorable game for the graphics leap. I remember being blown away by how good the graphics were when this came out. This and CoD 4 were the two that had that effect.
Seeing this makes me appreciate the health system of the original Call of Duty a hell of a lot more, you can get away with so much in this one to the point that you naturally become more careless. I never realised just how huge a difference it makes until I watched the play through of the first game followed by this one. Makes me want to see a return of health pack shooters tbh.
Man I adore this game, it's just so good. This is exactly my sort of game: simple, yet immersive and charming, and the situations you get put in sometimes are excellent. For me, the best COD of all time.
COD4 and basically every other call of duty for the next 8 entries was essentially built off of the base engine of Call of Duty 2 so they got some great use out of the systems built for that game. Though Call of Duty 3 had an entirely unique engine, the same one used for Spiderman 2 oddly enough.
Tidbit of history: Ships hosted a "last meal" feast for the solders, making the sea sickness 10x worse. There was much vomit on the way up to the beach.
I remember playing this in one of those game displays walmart used to have set up. My first call of duty experience and by far one of the best in the series
Noting the beginning of the British campaign, most troops in North Africa were provided with US-made Thompsons for the first half of the war. The likes of the Sten, Grease Gun and PPS-42 were more present in the second half for reasons of cost, efficiency and ease of manufacturing. However, you can't beat the feeling of a Chicago Typewriter with 50 rounds on tap.
Have you heard about the B2F mod for CoD 2? It comes with some pretty good custom missions and your beloved sprint. Might be worth checking out if you are ever able to find where to download the mod from
Only downside I’d say is that allies are extremely fragile and will often die to a single bullet, plus in some of the extra missions, enemies can see through cover and shoot you. It was especially rage inducing in one of the custom missions with all the hedgerows on Veteran
I'm excited to start this in my quest to earn 1000 GS or a platinum trophy for every CoD where possible. This game only had achievements on XBOX and not trophies on PS3, so I'll be completing this on XBOX. This campaign looks difficult, but glad to know you don't have to worry about finite health / lack of health regen like in CoD 1. That is still the hardest CoD campaign and probably one of the hardest campaigns I've ever played in general. So amazingly hard. Pavlov's House....
I’m 28 now, this is my childhood. I remember my father getting me out of bed at 1 am on school nights to have me smash a lobby because some random dude on the internet was giving him shit. He’d just keep the headset on him and pretend it was him playing until mom showed up and put an end to the fun
I must say, that this video is just brilliant. A nearly 3-hour-long video, and subtitled all the way so I can watch it while going to sleep, without having to wear headphones 🤯 also, timestamped all the way. Can't imagine the amount of work making these videos takes. Pure legend, earned a sub here 🤝
When I watched your COD 4 video I thought maybe I'm having better gameplay than you. Seeing this, man you're definitely better than me. And much funnier lol
Hot up Big Red 1! It’s by far one of the best. Not to mention action packed cutscenes! Edit: Reading this I realize the intro to the mission where you’re riding in the jeep while avoiding bombs n shit isn’t quite a cutscene.
Ah yes my first ever call of duty I've ever played. Call of duty 2 was amazing.
Bruh I loved this game soooooo much. Immediately after it I played Call of Duty 3 and then Call of Duty World At War.
youre the first person ive seen with a Sabrina pfp. Respect it
Same here man! Played it over at my grandparents house on his computer because my parents wouldn't let me have rated M games lol
For me it was call of duty 2 big red one
Same! I played the hell out of it when the 360 first came out, I remember being stunned at how good the graphics were for the time. Hate feeling old when I'm not even out of my 20s lmao
Who else as a kid tried their absolute hardest to keep your allys alive through out missions lol
Dude I remember trying to keep the female soldiers in the Soviet campaign alive. I was a simp before simping was invented.
I did in CoD 1 and 2 too and every other cod too , even in MOHAA breakthrough and Spearhead and allied Assault , I act like friends with bots but then I remember it's game , I always talk
Same
Yeah😂
Same here, tried to keep the women soldiers in the Russian Campaign out of line of fire as a child. I still do...
The fact that you did the Eisenhower “Great Crusade” speech is actually so great! Nailed the impression for such a small bit.
The panzerschreck part made me reach new levels of anger. I also died over and over. If I have to hear “MACGREGOR!” One more time I’ll lose it.
You mean the armored car part?
Just done that mission... FUUCCCKKKK
In my opinion this game graphically still holds up quite well
The standards surely changed till then, but for its time, it's truly looking very good!

COD 2 was one of the most graphically impressive games of its time. The only game I can think that looked better in 2005 was Shadow of the Colossus.
@@doublewhopper67 Bro if you play GYA SA and COD 2 one after another cod 2 feels like a 2010 game
The mid 2000's seems to have a lot of games that hold up graphically today. COD 2, Half Life 2, Escape from Butcher Bay, Doom 3 etc
What really cracks me up me about this game is the "watch out! Enemy grenade" line. As if when you have a grenade at your feet about to explode it makes a difference who threw it.

Big Red One has to up next. This one is amazing and and BR1 was my first cod
Br1 was my first one. I felt so accomplished beating it on ps2 lol.
He didn't do Finest Hour so I don't hold out much hope for BRO unfortunately.
There is no PC version. He will have to play on emulator.
Was about to say that hope he does
@@Ilshatey ...and br1 on PCSX2 is not all that great. One of the few COD games on PCSX2 that runs as poorly as it does.

The man, the myth, the legend returns with another one!
So happy your playing this as there are very little game play commentaries on the first 3 cods

"Hold on Davis it might get a little bumpy" was my dad's favourite line for a good few years it's now engrained into my memory and shall never leave.

This and cod 4 have excellent replay value, in large part mainly to the lack of cinematic/scripted moments that slow down the player.
General Dwight D. EisenS0ur left an indelible mark on the CoD 2 campaign, glad we had him in our corner.
This has to be one of my favorites series on youtube
Glad to see a new classic cod video, could you do Finest Hour next?
This game taught me English. I have memorized nearly all of it's lines. More importantly this game introduced me to German. After learning some more i was blown away with the German quotes.

That's a cool detail; I always wondered why they sounded so close, like they were "getting ready" to attack.
You should give Medal of Honor: Allied Assault a try. It's the grand daddy of Call of Duty series.

Me man, i just beat wAw on vet
This has been my favourite COD ever since. No "saving the world" bullshit, just average infantry experience. The British missions are my favourites
I love this campaign, I still remember the El Alamein missions, like when the mg42 shoots thru the door. Can't wait to binge this.
He even quotes United offensive sections in another CoD. Nice. That's how memorable expansion for first game is.
The final part of the Caen mission was absolute hell. This campaign might be harder than WaW
@Vscojen no the part where you defend the house and then destroy the tank
Genuinely, this campaign is bloody hard and a campaign I come back to more than any other CoD
This in my opinion is the best cod so many memories. Thank you man
Yes gotta love having a notification from the goat
The man of the people!! Been waiting for this one!
man, i’m really hoping we get a video on big red one and finest hour, my childhood put together
Can't believe so much time has passed and this game is almost 20 years old. It aged well.
I'm so hyped I've been waiting for this playthrough, the first one was so good and the reason I found your channel!

New here but man oh man. Have fun. Just wait till you get to cod 3. Rip online multiplayer
This was my first call of duty. This game was so badass. Love the journal entries
We went into war but not all of us came back... rest in peace the old keyboard...
:'(
Sheesh the memory i remember playing this game with my dad, i owe my dad a lot, including my love of video game, i miss him so much.
back in the days when i played this online. this is still one of the best games ever played. i still play it from time to time
This is probsbly one of my if not my favorite call of duty of all time as far as single player experiences go. So much nostalgia.
I had to look at my keyboard when you showed the icon on your keyboard. I have the exact same one as your old one. How hilarious!
I like these Mega-Videos, they are fun to go back and rewatch :)

And that's without talking about the music, keeps it so hype, and is just perfect
Can’t wait for the next one I literally watch every one of these and when I saw this one today I couldn’t wait till I got home

I’m 28 now, this is my childhood. I remember my father getting me out of bed at 1 am on school nights to have me smash a lobby because some random dude on the internet was giving him shit. He’d just keep the headset on him and pretend it was him playing until mom showed up and put an end to the fun
Love the random melee atk lmao you got that reflex for sprinting
God thus game was immaculate
Played this one on veteran you have my sympathies
hope CoD 2 will never be forgotten
I must say, that this video is just brilliant. A nearly 3-hour-long video, and subtitled all the way so I can watch it while going to sleep, without having to wear headphones 🤯 also, timestamped all the way. Can't imagine the amount of work making these videos takes. Pure legend, earned a sub here 🤝
I still play this game from time to time with mods. There's still some amazing ones under development
Feeling my age in the fact I remember watching The Military Channel as a kid.
Where u been at shawty we miss them uploads 😢
91 deaths new best for u Sour love these vids
Goodness, did you really count lol
When I watched your COD 4 video I thought maybe I'm having better gameplay than you. Seeing this, man you're definitely better than me. And much funnier lol
Hot up Big Red 1! It’s by far one of the best. Not to mention action packed cutscenes!
Edit: Reading this I realize the intro to the mission where you’re riding in the jeep while avoiding bombs n shit isn’t quite a cutscene.
I completed the entire game in veteran, it was a pain in the ass.
Especially on that D-day mission.
Oh to be a kid again playing this. Countless times playing this
I was about to request this on your last video because I started doing it
