    Black Ops

    For the few of us that like shooters.

    The story is hands down the best out of the last 3 Call of Duty games so far. The weapon sounds are really nice, and the extra detail in the enviroments and character models are better than MW2.

    Multiplayer finally feels balanced and almost fair. There is some wonky knife kills that seem like they shouldn't have hit. But over all, they were listening to all the complaints about the last game.

    Maps are nice, and there isn't any that really force you to use anyone gun. Like the sniper friendly maps of MW2.

    Flamethrowers are fun, but not very effective. The Nova 6 gas seems pointless since most people have the gas mask as their 3rd perk from the start.

    The camera is a really neat equipment that will replace my claymore once I get to the level to unlock it.

    The money system is really nice too. Allowing a person to get the attachments they want without grinding.

      I love how RPG concepts/conventions (levelling up, upgrading equipment, buying new weapons, and grinding) have become thoroughly entrenched in modern shooters.

        I like japanese games better because they talk alot before the conflicts and I think that's better.

          How long is the single player?

          And I'm damned if I do and I'm damned if I don't
          So here's to drinks in the dark at the end of my road
          And I'm ready to suffer and I'm ready to hope

                It takes a long time to play Zork with the xbox controller. :P

                  I guess I missed something, because I'm not making the connection between CoD and Zork.

                    8 hours?? That is double what MW2 was.

                      You did miss something! Zork, along with SmashTV and some others, is included in the game.

                        I just poked around online, and now see what you're talking about. It's not Smash TV, btw. It's a zombie-infested derivative. I was wondering how they put Zork in, but apparently, Activision has the rights to the old Infocom games.


                        As cool as this is (it IS pretty awesome, actually, and apparently playable via 360 chatpad and possibly USB keyboard), does anyone else have a feeling that stuff like this was added specifically to quiet all the Activison haters (myself included), and/or to sell some copies to those who otherwise would have no interest in CoD?

                          You'd have to be some kind of MORAN to spend 60 bucks on Zork in 2010 :V

                            I got it for free online. I think a thief kept killing me. I haven't played it in awhile.

                            Zork, that is.

                              I did a Google search for "Call of Duty Zork" and found articles on both Kotaku and Destructoid, wherein a few rubes in the comments after the article stated that they were not really interested in CoD, but the inclusion of Zork either pushed them to want to buy it, or at least give it a rent.
