As much as I would like to have a full gaming experience with Call of Duty: World at War, I don’t think it’s possible.  I’ve encountered so many errors and issues that I don’t think I can remember all of them.

It initially started on the beta.  I had a few days of fun with the beta and suddenly one day it started crashing after getting partially through the map load screen…the screen would flash and then crash.  There was an error message but the brilliant minds at Treyarch didn’t think to allow the error to show over the game executable dialog so I have no idea what the message was, just showed an error dialog that couldn’t be viewed.  I played with settings and found that if I disabled Crossfire on my dual ATI Radeon 3870’s, and clicked on restore factory defaults (I didn’t change anything but did it anyway) it worked.

I’ve been playing Left 4 Dead for a few days and the demo last week and I have to say that this is the freakin’ best FPS of the year.  While there are a few short comings, like the length overall it’s just incredible!  I’ll try to put more up this week but in the mean time, I’ve updated the screenshots for the first time in a looong while!   I’m going to try to start uploading in all their glory (1920×1200 or 1680×1050) but for now, here they are in 1024×640.  Enjoy…
