So, we're still waiting for Call of Duty to become a part of Xbox Game Pass in some form, with the top dogs at Microsoft still figuring things out since the company's big ActiBlizz purchase. While we've already asked which classic CoD you'd like to play first on the service, today we thought we'd gauge opinions on the whole series in general. Basically, which is your absolute favourite Call of Duty game on any Xbox console?
As pretty big fans of the series this is a tough one indeed. Call of Duty Black Ops absolutely deserves a shout for ushering in the ever-popular subseries, as does Treyarch's 2008 classic in Call of Duty: World at War. However, we'd have to turn the clock back to 2007's Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare for our absolute favourite in the series.
CoD4 is just a stone-cold classic, and it still holds up to this day. That's even more true when you factor in 2016's Modern Warfare Remastered, which although isn't quite the same, cemented the first Modern Warfare as a real high-point for the series. Honestly, we don't think it's ever been matched!
Of course, you could also look at some of the more modern releases in this long-running series, especially if you weren't around so much in the Xbox 360 era. Black Ops 3 always seems to be a popular pick, as does 2019's big Modern Warfare reboot, but we don't think either match up to the classics to be honest.
Anyway, enough about what we think! We're here to ask you about your favourite Call of Duty game. We know it's tough to pick just one, but if you could single out your absolute favourite CoD game on Xbox, what would it be and why?

You're missing the option of none I've never been interested. I'm one of the few people who hasn't played COD.
Might try the single player campaign on Game Pass to see what the fuss is about. That's if Microsoft doesn't change strategy on day one games or that would be another lie.
Black Ops 4. It is the last one with 4-player, split screen, zombies. We play it every week at my friend's house.
CoD: WWII. I loved the setting (always preferred WWII over Modern Settings) and loved so many things introduced in that game that never came back in future CoD games. Stuff like the Divisions, especially after the update they did to the divisions and the Headquaters. Not only that it had some great maps other then the USS Texas. I really hope they fix the security risks with CoD WWII and bring it to Gamepass someday.
@MrBook Thanks for the suggestion wasn't sure which to play. Hopefully they get added to Game Pass at the showcase.
@InterceptorAlpha I never got a chance to play Blops 4, by that time I was suffering from CoD fatigue and passes on it, what fool I was. I heard it is one of the better CoD games and I am hoping that it will be added to GP some day.
The first one. (Not sure if CoD Classic is differant than the original game) I played a crap out of CoD and CoD 2 on PC.
World at War for me. Was my first CoD multiplayer title unless you count Call of Duty 3. I really enjoyed the dark grunginess of the art style really fitting the time period. The only black ops I played was the first one because of the futuristic settings in the others. The ultimate worst was Advanced Warfare because of the jet packs imo.
Only one choice for Xbox vets:
Only CoD I played was MW3 2011. Tried the multiplayer but was trash at it, messed around with the campaign a bit, but absolutely loved the survival mode. I'd probably love Zombies if not for the fact I get scared easily, so I already have an idea of how well that'd go because of feral ghouls in Fallout running up from behind to smack me which makes me jump.
@Tasuki I avoided COD fatigue thankfully.
Most of the time I just played the campaigns, I didn't do much online with it. Was always more a fan of the pace of Halo back in the day.
Then when Halo turned into CoD with Halo 4, Battlefield was all I played lol.
Ghosts but mainly for the extinction mode.
Modern warfare 2 og and Black Ops 2 also loved World at war wish they'd hurry up and add them to Gamepass.
I will always have a soft spot for CoD 2. It was the game that blew me away when I first played it on Xbox 360. And a campaign that I will always remember.
It’s been a long while since I played the first COD. I hope Xbox put it on sale before the store closure, or makes it backwards compatible.
I went for Black ops 2. I was torn between Blacks ops 2, world at war and Vanguard.
for all the peeps who haven't played a COD campaign in donkey years, when they come to gamepass I really recommend the 2019 MW reboot. stunning campaign!

and infinite warfare campaign is incredible...
The one thing holding mw3 back is the lack of ground war / invasion maps. Only 3 since launch
campaigns, world at war and mw3.
The only one I’ve played is modern warfare (2009), and it’s not my favorite anything.
Never quite understood the love for Black Ops. That hokey "you are controlled by the numbers" story was straight up laughable.
Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare all the way, it elevated the whole series into the stratosphere, that entire trilogy was the peak. But I haven't played any of the last 4-5 campaigns, including the MW reboots.
Just give me MW3 remastered, irritating that they only did 1&2.
@MrBook Same here; CoD 2 was one of my all-time favorite games. Great launch title for 360 that really helped to usher in the next gen. Loved the look of the smoke grenades. Played through the campaign on veteran 5-6 times. Next up for me was CoD 4: MW.
mw2 2009 is the goat every COD after 360 era is trash
