Mea Culpa
It took me a long time to motivate myself to play the original Call of Duty. Sure, I tried the demos, eyed the box at Best Buy, and considered Jim Zabek's glowing review, but it still took me four months to actually get a copy and force myself to play through it. That's particularly odd for me because I usually jump at every chance I get to play good first-person shooters, no matter if they're set in World War II or in the depths of Hell. For me, Call of Duty was haunted by a 'me too' image. I had spent embarrassingly long hours with Medal of Honor, Battlefield 1942, and Day of Defeat. What was so great about another FPS set in World War II?
It took me a couple of hours with Call of Duty to realize what I'd been missing. While it was 'just another World War II shooter,' it was also magnificently produced, engrossing, over-the-top, engaging, beautiful, and just downright fun to play. World War II didn't just provide an important marketing bullet point on the game's box, it served as a familiar backdrop to create a striking game. It was easy for me to be cynical about the game's recreation of Enemy at the Gates' opening scene (where Russian troops are slow-boated across the Volga into Stalingrad to face certain death) or other 'Hollywood' moments, but playing through the familiar worlds made it seem all the more real. There have been plenty of other World War II FPS games, but it was Infinity Ward's execution of the tried and true which made it so excellent.
So when Activision and developer Gray Matter Studios released the United Offensive expansion pack for Call of Duty, I discarded my cynical thoughts and jumped into the game with an open mind.

An Expansion Pack Means More Stuff!
Veterans of gaming know expansion packs are really feature lists, boxed into a convenient retail package which installs neatly on top of the existing game. Call of Duty: United Offensive has no shortage of flashy new features - new campaigns (13 new missions), updated graphical touches, new weapons, new multiplayer maps and game modes, and various bug fixes and gameplay improvements, all of which combine into a surprisingly deep expansion.
As in the original game, the campaign covers the efforts of the Allied armies across Europe. The game begins with the American 101st at the Battle of Bastogne, then shifts to British SAS troops behind enemy lines in the heart of Europe, and finishes with Soviet conscripts and the battles of Kursk and Kharkov. While the original Call of Duty focused on earlier missions at the start of the war, nearly all of United Offensive's missions occur in late '44 and early '45. The snowy missions of Bastogne are the most visually striking, and the Soviet missions are, well, butt-ugly. In addition to the usual assortment of period weaponry (the M1 Garand, Sten gun, Kar98, bazooka, and MP40), United Offensive adds a new .30 caliber light machine gun perfect for the trench warfare of Western Europe as well as the German-built flamethrower. While exciting to read about, the flamethrower actually proves useless in the single player game. In the new multiplayer modes, Grey Matter has added the mainstay Capture the Flag, the Battlefield 1942-like Domination, and a tank-focused Base Assault mode. Plus, eleven new and very large maps have been added to the rotation. I'll discuss the new modes and maps further in the multiplayer sections below. Finally, United Offensive other treats like an in-game multiplayer ranking system and the numerous fixes from the past year of patching the original Call of Duty.
The new campaign and multiplayer features added are the most important additions in United Offensive, and they're surprisingly robust for an expansion pack. Whereas most expansion packs tack on a few missions, the new United Offensive single player campaign is a mini version of Call of Duty. There's quite a bit to do, and if that's not enough, the multiplayer modes provide two of the better modes I've seen in a FPS since Unreal Tournament 2004. Gray Matter has really crammed in the content for this expansion pack.
