COD WW2 D-Day Comparison: which game did it best?
Playing through the Call of Duty World War 2 D-Day mission is an intense experience but COD WW2 is not the first game to have approached the WW2 Normandy Landings. In this D-Day comparison video, Ian compares the Medal of Honor: Allied Assault D-Day level, the Medal of Honor Frontlines D-Day level, the Call of Duty 2 D-Day level, the Blazing Angels: Squadrons of WW2 D-Day level and the Company of Heroes 2 D-Day level. This video also features footage from Saving Private Ryan’s Omaha Beach sequence .

The best game to compare what happened is the Conker: Live & Reloaded game. Yes it’s a squirrel but it was legitimately done like movie saveing private Brian.
You forget call of duty big red one.
You forgot MOH Airborne
These nutheads forgot codwaw
2:55 look at that absolute madlad who just runs on the beach
You forgot conkers bad fur day on n64 😎 it was insane
Conker’s Bad Fur Day did it the best!
Holy shit bro medal of honor 2002 jesus christ i was trying to remember what this game was when i played this, i was like 5 when i played it in a sort of way it was kinda my childhood game since i kept replaying it, same with call of duty 2 about the same time
Diffrent D-Day
7:47 turn on captions
That one in COD 2 is Utah Ridge. Not Normandy.
I hope bf5 brings out a d-day grand operation
Forgotten Hope 2 has the most accurate D-Day maps
Call of duty WW2 has an awesome D day mission, but the sound was its only flaw, the sound of guns where just so bad in Call of duty WW2, and at first I didn’t care really much, but then I started playing Indie games like Post Scriptum, Hell let loose and Day of infamy among others. and the sound design in those games where incredible when in comparison to a AAA budget game. Honestly I still can’t figure out to this day why the sound design was just so awful, other then possibly Multiplayer being to blame with there really small maps, and with gun noises being too loud giving away positions etc. It’s be nice though if they updated the game with better sound as it’s not impossible, they just choose not to.
11:48 sorry but thats nothing compared to other american battles or even soviet battles
You also forgot the Omaha beach mission in Call of Duty 2: Big Red One which was Treyarchs first call of duty and was for the ps2 and xbox not the xbox 360.
Why aren’t there More pacific theater ww2 games?
I’ve been to Omaha and Utah beach two years ago. At low tide, I was blown away at how far the allies had to run and how quickly the sea level rose. After looking at these in the FPS, I do have to say that MoH did have a better representation of how far, but even that still paled in comparison how long the Allies had to run.
They should of had operation Neptune mp map be in the campaign instead
Where the fuck is COD 2 Big Red One! You know the game that came before COD 2
Higgins boat exploding on your left CHECK

These are so recycled or just gutted from Saving Private Ryan. Even in CoD WWII.
4:08 "by shamelessly copying scenes from Saving Private Ryan"……. Well the game is created by Steven Spielberg
9:10 "Clearly from the cockpit of an American Warplane"
Sorry to correct you but that’s a Tempest a British aircraft and D-Day saw the first mass use of Tempests during WW2 (pls dont confuse Tempests to P-51Ds just because of markings on the wings pay attention to the roundel and radiator ty)

Conker live and reloaded is obviously the most realistic ww2 game
Gears of war judgement did a playoff of it
"American fighter plane" its a British RAF typhoon.
Yall know that in the first medal of honor Steven Spielberg were involved? It looks like spr because of that reason!!
Fun fact:The assault on Palilu was way worse than D-DAY.
I hope you realise that not all troops on dday were American like that plane mission was in a British typhoon aircraft
I feel CoD WW2 has the worst, most cinematic and less realistic version of them all
I hate how people say" boots on the ground "idk it’s just me maybe
Hacksaw ridge as a game
Steven Spielberg asked EA to make a ww2 shooter to go with his movie Saving Private Ryan. He was there for most of the first games. Of course they took inspiration from his work as with out him who else would of thought of making a ww2 shooter at that time?
God bless the heroes of D Day.
7:35 so sad seeing a guy on fire getting water trown at him
bullets would not have traveled that far in the underwater. In reality a bullet can only travel a foot or two through water before stopping, loosing the momentum it needs to kill even before that.
cod 2 i think was utah beach the others were omaha beach
Now imagine if Battlefield V wasn’t a cesspool of twitter feminist propaganda……Probably would have been the best piece of WW2 entertainment media in history. Sad.
4:47 the luftwaffe never made it to the beaches
Visual wise cod WW2 wins due the fact our consoles today’s have better power when got my PS4 cod WW2 was my first game I played on PS4 I was shocked for how much detail there was
Those are British typhoons not American planes
They should make a game with an iwo jima Landing
COD WON
An open world WWII Action RPG game would be Amazing
Cod ww2 did it worse, cutscene, cutscene, cutscene, you should have control all time, and when text needs to be given it doesn’t need to be in a cutscene.
Conquer: live and reloaded
No Gold or Sword? In any games? Why do they focus on the Americans and not us Brits. I can only think of at least five games where the you play the British in WWII out of dozens of games.
9:22 thats a British plane my dude
Remember the opening of Battlefield 1? Wouldn’t it have been cool if they did that sorta thing with Battlefield V where you’re at different large scale battles of World War 2 and each time you die you get placed into another soldiers body?
