We return to 2004 to take on the Call of Duty: Finest Hour campaign - the console adaptation of the first Call of Duty. Like all these early CoDs, I've seen nothing about FH, although this time I don't need Veteran difficulty to make it a challenge thanks to being terrible with the controls.
Edited full game commentary playthrough.

My first Call of Duty game! Man was I young back then, honestly feels like a different lifetime completely. I wasn’t a very self aware kid so I’d just mindlessly play games like this, looking back I didn’t enjoy anything I did back then, not really. Now I’m thankfully a lot happier.

The 2nd to final mission is also insanely brutal. If you are out of position and/or low on grenades/health it's possible to soft-lock the level in the part where the tanks push up and there's panzershrecks and enemies from behind and above and an MG42 that enemies infinitely spawn onto if you aren't close to it. After that it becomes doable but still very difficult remainder of the mission. We all remember the infamous final british mission, I became a pro at that mission but man it was brutal until I figured out you can go around and get grenades and flank before you bum rush with the timebomb. And the 1st and 2nd American mission, the 1st has a section where you need to very aggressively push and there's invisible MG42's that can only be killed with a panzershreck you better have in your back pocket. And then the sewer one, I used to complete it without destroying 1 of the ladders because the 2nd ladder you find would trap you and man it was brutal. Great game, but very difficult until you find a way to force your way thru the difficulty. Does anyone remember the easter eggs? Those were both creepy but also badass.

This was the first COD I ever played. It was what started my journey in the series. I still remember the order to this day: Finest Hour, Big Red One, COD 2, COD 1, COD 3, Modern Warfare, World at War. It is a series dear to my heart. It has been fun watching you go back and play! While Finest hour gets so much hate, it feels undeserved. It has such interesting depth when you consider it goes into the character's history before every mission. You aren't just a random guy, you are Private Sokolov, you are Lieutenant Tanya, you are a person with a life! And it is that detail that makes this game so much more interesting. Also, a rare instance of a female soldier during WW2, which was actually decently common in Russia. During the war, many women enlisted to serve at the front. Men still outnumbered them vastly, but it was a time where women served not just as nurses, but much more! Bomber piolets, snipers, train engineers, frontline soldiers, and more! Finest hour touches on that, and it's awesome.

My first shooter, got it and a GameCube at Christmas when I was 8 years old. Two things that I think are truly fantastic about this game regardless of nostalgia: -The music and voice acting is amazing, there are so many sequences that I can quote from memory even today. The sound design in general was incredible for its time. -The game has some secret unlocks and cheats that are fantastic, but my favorite was an animation reel that showed off custom animations that the developers worked on that are easy to miss while playing the game or didn’t make it into the final version. Those animations are the standard that I hold games to even today.

As much as I like this game from a nostalgic standpoint, it really got ridiculously hard sometimes. When I say "ridiculously hard," I'm not necessarily talking about health loss and whatnot. I'm talking about certain annoyances present in some early FPS games that didn't really make much sense from a realistic perspective (I like realism in my WWII-based games), such as certain areas having an endless respawn of enemies, allies who stood around and made you do all the work, enemies always taking aim at you (the player) despite several of your allies being easier targets, etc. It was definitely a beast to get through on hard IMO. Still, it had a ton of great moments. Some of the visuals were really cool (for 2004) and the soundtrack was absolutely amazing, particularly in "The Flag Must Fall" and "Into the Heartland."

Good game, but some things are out of line: 1. Old myth of one with the rifle, second with the bullets charging (not even the few workers militia battalions were so poorly equipped). 2. Mosin Nagant in the game is actually Finnish models, which is obvious by the sights. 3. Red army uniforms are 1943 models with shoulder straps, while at Stalingrad they still wore 1941 model without those and red markings at necktie. Edit: 4. Mamayev Kurgan had no concrete bunkers built by either side, only few fortified outposts and lookouts.

I remember the game being actually kind of good, but the super spread out checkpoints caused consistent anxiety and the difficulty just kept getting harder and harder with each mission even on easy. Overall, could have been a classic if a better checkpoint system was implemented or the levels were better thought out difficulty wise. Big Red One was the better COD for PS2 at this time for sure.

The Soviet and American campaigns on this game are some of my absolute favorites. It's a toss up for me between World at War and Finest Hour for which Soviet campaign I cherish more personally. Also love the ability to pick up tons of grenades and select either the RGD-33 or Stielhandgranate for example. No other Call of Duty has that key detail from my observation. Thank you for this video, liked and subbed!

PS: Finest Hour got the PPSh right! World at War's is stretched in third-person view and looks godawful... The flash is nice too xD PSS: Also, love playing as Tanya Pavelovna, she's fucking badass with the Mosin-Nagant 91/30 PU ;)

I wanted to play all the cool new CODs when I was around 12-ish, but my parents didn't want me playing M rated games yet, and we had a perfectly good PS2. So they opted towards getting a box set of Finest Hour and Big Red One. I have fond memories of binging the Finest Hour campaign again and again. It probably helped fuel my love of history.

This is my first CoD game, audio issues didn't persist so much on the PS2 that I had compared to what I've heard, the PC port did have its issues though. Wouldn't know personally. One of my favorite features of the original game was the showcase of animations and cutscenes. An example was a German gun carrier blowing up a building. Man I miss this game.

This was absolutely the hardest COD i played on my ps2 when i was still a kid i got stuck on "Not One Step Back" and "The flag must fall" Tanya's Mission was hard for me back then when i still don't know how to snipe and clear the tunnels then after years i got stuck on The "First city to fall" then stuck again at "Into the the heartland" for long time, the american campaign was hard even i put it on normal still worth the play and still the commissar's speech and the background music gives me the chills to this day.
