Call of Duty: World at War

Call of Duty: World at War was released in November 2008 and was the fifth main series entry in the iconic first-person shooter franchise.  The game saw the series return to its WWII roots but incorporated many aspects of Modern Warfare's (2007) online multiplayer. World at War is also fondly remembered for being the game that introduced a Zombies mode to the franchise.
