CALL OF DUTY 4: MODERN WARFARE SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS

Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare dragged the series into modern combat and basically rewrote the blockbuster FPS playbook. Its campaign remains famous for pacing and mission design, while its multiplayer helped define online progression for years.

This is the game that helped lock in the modern COD template: snappy aiming, cinematic missions, and multiplayer progression built to keep matches coming one after another. It feels leaner than later entries, but that focus is part of why it still lands so hard.
