Call of Duty 3 takes place during the allied breakout from Normandy in World War II (of course), running you through the 88 days that lead to the liberation of Paris. Along the way you get to take part in assaults by five nations (although you only get to play as four as you assist the French), the British, Americans, Canadians, French and Polish. Call of Duty games have never been the heavy on story, other than being involved in one of the biggest stories of the century of course, however this time we do get cut scenes that make a good enough job of guiding you through the events that take place. A little niggle here is that they cannot be skipped, which I found annoying now and again.
