I knew I should've brought my 360 on my business trip. Stupid, stupid...

Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops

I'm completely and totally in love with this game. I'm not great at it, but I hold my own in TDM right now. I've got probably a .6 or so K/D ratio, which is pretty good for how green I am at FPS games.

Nuketown is by far my favorite level. I was one kill away from team MVP on one of the matches on that level.

It's at least a 9. Great game..much better than MW2 so far for me.

eh, too low. Should be a 9, but still a good score. IMO its better than MW2 simply due to the fact that they took out so much of the BS that ruined MW2 for me.

I have a feeling that the reviewer misses that stuff. To each their own, I'm not bashing, but all the perks, death steaks and general unbalanced gameplay killed MW2.

This game is much more balanced and goes at slower pace.

Even though I'm getting my *** kicked right now, its still fun.

Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops

Eh, it's COD. What I've come to expect. A really nice looking game, full of dumb fun. It's good for what it is. The spawning is still terrible. They did do a nice job of weakening the shotguns, which were such a gamekiller last time around. I don't want to say anything concrete yet, it's been one night of the game. I remember the difference between playing it the week it came out, and playing it a month later when all of the douche bags learned how to exploit it.

I do feel like they're trying to cut back on the cluster-f nature of the game. The killstreaks seem less frequent this time around, cutting out that akimbo shotgun crap makes all the difference, too. I hope this one has more legs than MW2, which I was sick of after about a month or two and turned in.

Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops

So I just played this game for like 4 straight hours on Mercenary TDM and it was pretty much the greatest time I've ever had playing a game online. This game plays so much slower/better than MW2 did. I can make mistakes and get away with them more so in this game. I like that I don't feel like complete crap when I play.

I'm up to level 13, have a K/D ratio of .7 and have really been getting into a zone in my most recent matches. I just finished the night with a 10/2 performance on a 3-on-3 TDM, with a 7 killstreak. Earlier in the night I had a 14/7 performance with a 10 killstreak.

I was hoping to get to level 14 to unlock the FAMAS, but alas I'm exhausted and the lobbies are becoming emptied out now. I haven't played all the maps yet, but this was definitely worth trading in my other games to get. Hopefully tomorrow I can get my K/D ratio up to above a 1.0.

Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops

Man, this game is sweet. Havn't played Online yet, waiting for my friend to get home and get on, but the campaign so far is awesome and the zombies is still loads of fun. Much harder though, I swear heres more zombies on the first few rounds than there was in the previous game, but the harder, the better.

my sentiments exactly.

the multiplayer just "feels right". the maps are well designed and dynamic as well. like for the "Shooting Range" the targets were in different spots both times i played it.

the game is boat loads of fun. i havent even played the single player yet! lol

Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops

Can anyone comment on the single-player? I never play online so I'm interested in how this is offline.
