Call of Duty Vanguard (Xbox Series X)

I typically buy Call of Duty every year, good or bad.  I don't like myself for doing it, but there's something about that instant action that's so satisfying that every November I'm ready for another.  I was not too excited to return to World War 2.  I loved Modern Warfare of 2019, and have been waiting for something to replace it.  Never been a huge Black Ops guy and I knew old guns from the mid 1900's wasn't going to do it either.  The multiplayer is surprisingly good though!  I enjoy the maps quite a bit, I can't say there's one I don't like!

The campaign is another story.  I knocked the whole thing out in a morning.  I had Covid, so there wasn't a whole lot else going on in my life, that attributed to the 5-6 hour marathon gaming session.  The campaign is underwhelming outside a handful of operator levels where you play as Polina.  Those levels gave me some serious "Mirror's Edge" vibes.  

I'd recommend this game to Call of Duty multiplayer fans.  You know what you're getting here, and it's good.  Much better than Black Ops: Cold War.
