WTF?? That's pretty crappy. Sucks for those people that will probably not get a copy on release day now. I hope the robbers get caught trying to sell them on Craigslist or something.

Is there a co op campaign in this one?
Where can I find a written review?

there will be a press embargo on reviews until 9th....it seems to be the standard for big releases recently

Apparently someone with an early copy has already posted a campaign walkthrough. Don't visit if you don't want to see spoilers.

My friend who worked on the game called me on Friday to say he has my copy for me. Won't be able to grab it until tomorrow though.

He's been playing it non-stop all weekend.

A month ago I wasn't really looking forward to this one, but after everything I've seen and read the past couple of weeks I am pumped. COD campaigns always rock the ____, so I'm looking forward to that. The MP is cool for a while until tools learn how to cheat. I'm really looking forward to Zombie mode with Kennedy and Castro, that is gonna F'N rock!!

You guys do realize you CAN mute someone on LIVE and PSN right?? Or if you have to, put the mic down so you don't have to hear anyone.

I set my LIVE settings to where I can only hear people who are my friends, it's heaven. Well, except for when Bamboota's loud annoying ass is around.

 

[The Josh]

I had that setting but you can't do that and play EA sports games on live.

I pre-ordered the game at Target but I want that shirt! lol, plus a 20$ GC? I'm in!

TRU has been doing some CRAZY things for new games. In fact, they've actually got me checking them first before buying/ordering the game anywhere else.

When I bought Fallout Vegas there I got a $10 GC, and a free $25 Prima strategy guide.

IMO, preordering a game is pointless anymore. It used to be that games would sell out and you'd have to wait for them to get more in. I get that there are preorder bonuses but for me it's all about the money (GC's).

I could care less about getting a gun in a game that you can unlock later by just playing it or an avatar suit or whatever the bonus is. Very rarely is it something extremely limited to the game that really changes the experience.

SOOOO DUMB!

To me it seems they know the game is crap, much like Medal of Honor.

 

[farrrs]

zombies and im happy! surely they cant ___c that up! plenty of MP and zombie gameplay on youtube! looks graphically poor compared to MW2 but that wont put me off! and at least you can shoot someone dead before while they collapse and last stand kicks in whereas on previous games the bullet wouldnt register while they were in mid air!

Already posted, sorry.



Robbers Nab Over 100 Copies of Black Ops
Four cases of the game stolen from GameStop.
November 7, 2010
by Jim Reilly

The Baltimore Sun reports two men armed with handguns stole four cases of Activision's Call of Duty: Black Ops video game, cash, and gaming systems from a GameStop store at the Bel Air shopping center in Harford County, Md. late Saturday night.

The robbers made off with more than 100 copies of Black Ops, which is set to go on sale this Tuesday. The local sheriff's office is asking residents to contact them if they come across early copies of the game.

Blops is coming...and it will be far superior to MW2 in every way.

I'm probably the only one here who... didn't like that commercial. Besides Kobie and Kimmel, everyone else seemed like total losers. An obese office girl kicking down a door, a balding hotel dude, the random falafel stand guy the end. I guess it's an attempt to advertise to the different demographics. But, to me, it just seems a bit too over-the-top and corney.

So you're allowed to say this about that video or those people, but any of us who say that we don't care about ray's videos or whatever he has to say you don't understand why? Hypocrite much?

I'll probably be picking this up on Tuesday - looks good and it's been awhile since I played this type of game.

I hope that the ratings for this will be as good or better than Modern Warfare. The single player campaign looks good (for a change).

 

[BadMoon]

I for one and skipping this for now. I buy these damn games, play the single player, and then they collect dust. LOL!

I want Assassins Creed.

I will get this eventually though.

Completely agreed on everything !! I'm not so interested in the multiplayer for COD games (for reasons that I mentioned before). My friends and I do play online sometimes, but I really enjoyed playing the spec-ops missions solo in MW2.

AC is also first on my priority list. The hype level for that game has increased since I bought the Hot Toys figure, and I can't wait to see the end to Ezio's story!
