The 3D catalog: game boxes on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

The catalog in 3D

The same catalog has a room you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real games from it when you tell them what you feel like playing. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this game is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

How it feels

A relentless, big-budget cinematic shooter that feels like a Hollywood blockbuster played at a sprint.

What players say

Players call this a satisfying end to the original Modern Warfare trilogy, with a short but memorable campaign and the addition of Survival and Spec Ops modes. Multiplayer is widely described as unsafe to play due to hackers, and the $40 price tag for a 15-year-old game is almost universally mocked.
