Call of Duty: World War II is bad. That’s an understatement. World War II is the worst Call of Duty game ever released. The first person shooter series that was once the pinnacle of action games has fallen hard in recent years and—though this newest installment is selling better than the previous entry—returning to the franchise’s historical roots has only exposed how bad the game has gotten.. No where is this more apparent than in the game’s opening minutes when it tries—and fails—to recapture the glory of Medal of Honor: Allied Assault’s Normandy invasion mission.

Fifteen years ago, publisher Electronic Arts released designer Jason West and Vince Zampella’s Medal of Honor: Allied Assault. The two would go on to leave EA, found Infinity Ward and create Call of Duty. Allied Assault was basically the first Call of Duty game and it was magnificent.
