Let’s be honest Call of Duty has had major success over the past decade and also some massive flops. For most gamers COD has been a part of their life at one point. I along with a friend will rank the past decade of COD games together to remain as impartial as we can.
Number 10: Advanced Warfare
Advanced Warfare was just the biggest flop of the decade. No one in the COD community wanted the exo suits that the game brought in. The game also brought in a pay to win aspect in the fact that getting certain weapon variants would make the player have the most overpowered guns, that you couldn’t get unless you got very lucky or almost bought a bunch of their crates. The exo zombies mode was also just very poorly put together and just had an overall weird feeling to it. Advanced Warfare just changed to much at once.
Number 9: Ghosts
Now we move on to Ghosts. Ghosts Multiplayer was just so stale. The game got boring after the first few weeks and the maps were not different enough for anyone to say that they had a favorite from that game. It is a shame that this game did bad, because the campaign was really good. The campaign is probably one of the best of the past decade. Then we move onto their survival game mode where it was an alien version of zombies that was just awful. It was an unwanted variant of zombies that ruined the players opinion on the franchise.
Number 8: Infinite Warfare
Infinite Warfare is a game that many people just kind of forget about. The whole in space concept and the return of exo suits just made it crash. The zombies in this game was okay, but nothing special. Just kind of a forgettable game.
Number 7: Black Ops 3
The first of the Black Ops series comes in at number seven. This Black ops had a terrible multiplayer with a weird assortment of weapons and just boring maps. The inclusion of wall-running brought something new to the series, but also made people hate it all together. The only thing saving this game from dropping lower was the zombies. The loyal fan base loved this game for the zombies and the continuation of the story.
Number 6: World War 2
WW2 is the start of the COD games that are good and don’t have much wrong with them. The multiplayer was a breath of fresh air after coming off of games that including jumping around with jet packs. The zombies was fun in its own right, albeit nothing special. This was just a good game overall.
Number 5: Black Ops
Black Ops was a great game and I mean great. This game was the start of something great for zombies fans. The maps were great in multiplayer, so good that the would be brought back to future games. The likes of Summit and Nuketown came from this game. The guns got so popular that they came out in future games as well. This was a great game, but others came later that beat it out.
Number 4: Black Ops 4
Black Ops 4 was the latest installment of the Black Ops series. The game had a great zombies as well and continued the story and had a map that put the best parts of previous maps together into one giant map. The multiplayer brought back so many maps that everyone loved in previous installments. BO4 also had its own battle royale that helped it grow a bigger following and add another mode for people to play.
Number 3: Modern Warfare 3
MW3 is a game that everyone and their mother know. It is a game that most of us grew up playing. The maps were insane and the campaign was insane. This game has a type of nostalgia that you just can’t get from many games. MW3 had some of the best gun/map combination ever.
Number 2: Modern Warfare 4
This game is the current installment of COD. Although it still hasn’t reached its full potential yet, it might just become one of the best games to come out. I may be biased because I am currently playing it and love it. The Spec Ops mode is refreshing to have a mission you can do with your friends. The Campaign was a master piece of missions that make it feel like you are there. There looks to be a battle royale being added as well which will make the game even better by adding another game mode, as long as it isn’t terrible.
Number 1: Black Ops 2
Now we move to our number one spot. WE may be biased because we played it for three plus years because the ones that came out after it were absolutely terrible. The zombies was outstanding once again and the multiplayer was perfect. Maps like Raid and Standoff were some of the best maps of the whole series. The last COD to offer many different camos like bacon and weaponized which almost everyone remembers. Maybe it’s just because the games after it were bad, but that’s what makes a game great, the longevity of it.
Lets us know what you thought of our list and what you would switch around and why.
