Original MW2 all day. Best COD so far for me.
world at war is fire though
BO3 & ww2 are my absolute favorite games ever in the cod franchise and nothing will ever change that
No world at war or mw3? Failll
Ww2 is the best call of duty
Great, As long as Black Ops 3 Campaign doesn't make this list, you did a great job then
Modern Warfare campaigns are absolutely incredible
Bo2 being nr 5 is fair, but not having world at war in there at all, but ww2 and the futuristic cods is a big shame 😂
Wild that Kevin Spacey was in a COD campaign
Cod Iw, Aw campaign is better than Mw3, Mw2(2022)!!!
How is call of duty ghosts not there??
Bro isn't IGN A GTA 5 CLUB
Did infinite warfare dirty on this top 10 list, infinite warfare is an easy top 3 cod campaign.
Call of duty 1?????
Love cod ghosts still playing ❤
Cod Advanced warfare was by far the BEST campaign ever in my opinion, with one of the biggest plot twists ever, it has the best campaign, not for just gameplay but for the story
Old MW 1 2 and Black ops 1 2 is the goat
you missed ghosts!
I've been having a lot of fun with the black ops 3 campaign after coming back to the series for so long.
such an odd list and justifications imo
my special best so far, wwII, mw 2019 and cod 4 mw
COD 4 was way better than Black Ops. Islamic extremists and the Bush era will forever be cooler than communists and the Cold War.
I’m sorry but how can infinite warfare be number 8 no wonder ign lost credibility , infinite warfare had great characters and story telling , the graphics and mechanics were awesome , zero gravity fights , fighter jet fights in space , being able to visit different planets that campaign is top 3 at least
World at War? Seriously? You added the clown shows that are Infinity Warfare and Advanced Warfare. Or are you afraid of getting cancelled because how gruesome the game is?
This list is horrible absolutely horrible
The disrespect and lack of recognition for World at War contiues 🙁
Call of duty ghosts ? Call of duty mw3?
Agreed 👍🏻
Pretty crazy to have call of duty 2 on this list, let alone having it ranked number 3 and not even have mw3 or waw on the list.
how tf is ghosts not on the list💀
Black Ops will always be #1
MODERN WARFARE 3: BLACK TUESDAY.
One of my favorite Call of Duty campaigns of all time was Battlefield 3
MW3 2023 FTW
bo2 always #1
The fact WW2 is on here and not WAW 🙄
Cod ghost best campign
World at war ????? Wtf
Top 3 from my perspective-
1. Cod Mw 2
2. Cod black ops
3. Cod WW
Modern Warfare (2007) and Modern Warfare 2 (2009) have the best campaign for me, so many memorable moments but also iconic characters.
Cold War and Infinite Warfare on the list and the absence of World at War and MW3 (2011) surprises me
Bo2 was the best in my opinion beasty missions
Sledghammer doesnt know how to make solo
Basically mw3 2023 is the worst solo ever? Yes
Would it be crazy if they decided to do a remake of the black ops series, still to this one of my favorite stories in Call of Duty History.
The best campaigns are 1- w@w 2-cod4 3- infinite warfare.
My favorite campaigns and most games are the ones that IGN shits on. Cause let’s be honest. Most people haven’t bought a game on a review score. They make the decision for themselves. Imagine a world where people think on their own? And considers a decision before making one. Not on impulse or from a studio that is trying to make a buck off of someone else’s work.
