His family were there so I had to hide in rooms and pick the perfect moment to make my move as a domestic conversation about appropriate clothing went on around me. I had a mission where I had to go into a scientist’s house to get a briefcase. But there are also moments where you are required to partake in missions stealthily and with thought. Yes, there are moments in this game that has huge set pieces where the focus is fully set on blowing everything up around you, as the screen fills with countless soldiers trying to murder you. I’ll be honest, and during the length of the Cold War campaign I experienced something weird – something different – to what is normally delivered within a Call of Duty title – quiet time during missions. Narrative-wise though it sorts things out it does a very clever thing with mucking around with reality and questioning who you really are and if you actually exist, or have just been made up to serve this story. However, there are other times where it doesn’t quite work as intended, leaving Cold War to feel like a bad action movie with slow-motion shots of aircraft whizzing around and characters walking to the camera trying to look cool. What the story does is tell a tale of conspiracy, heroism, and patriotism in a way that is both gripping and exciting at times it feels like you are in a dark James Bond movie or a version of Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy. But it goes deeper than that and you’ll also find yourself involved in flashback missions that take you to Vietnam in the late 1960s. You, as Bell, go on several missions in Berlin, Russia and Cuba to try to find out the secrets to Perseus’s whereabouts. You kick things off in a safe house located in neon-drenched Berlin, and here you and the other operatives are trying to find the mysterious Perseus a figure based on a real spy that tried to infiltrate the Manhattan project. But it is Russell Adler, who looks like Robert Redford after he’s been in a knife fight, who is your leader. You play the role of Bell who is a sort of off-the-books CIA operative working for a team of suspicious and shady operatives. Cold War is a story set at the start of the 1980s when the new President of the United States, a certain Ronald Reagan, has set the Cold War temperature to nuclear.
