Call of Duty: World at War released, patched

Activision's latest release in the Call of Duty series hit store shelves today. For the first time the game supports co-op, with support for up to 4 players online and 2-player split screen co-op. 

In the game you'll follow the US Marines during the island hopping campaign in the Pacific, as well as a company of Soviet infantry as they race to Berlin. The game utilizes the same game engine as CoD 4, so expect World at War to perform similarly to that game.

A patch for the game has already been released offering the following fixes:

Mods are now enabled in Co-op, Single Player, and Multiplayer.

Players will now be notified when a new patch is available.

Improvements for SLI support.

G_Spawn: no free entities crash has been fixed.

Clan Tags will now display in game where appropriate.

Map holes fixed

Spawn improvements and weapon balancing
