Duh......

 

[CelticPredator]

Well ____ yeah! Now it's worth it.

So I finally got to play it.....

Graphics are horrible. But aside from that...it's kinda fun. I like the gore. But I dont see a huge leap from MW2 single player wise.

Played Multiplayer....____, they really screw you with the "Level 4 and you get choose your class!" Meh....I like that perks cost "money". But I did OK.

I dont see the huge difference once again. I never really noticed all these glitches people _____ about in MW2, aside from the care package one...which I laughed every single time about.

So we'll see. I guess when I actually get it, I might start to play it more...but Halo: Reach is my game for the next year or so.

I think a few of us will go back to that when the Noble Maps come out

Really? The graphics are horrible?

Don't get me wrong I'm a big Halo fan. However, to say the graphics in COD are horrible is pretty damn stupid in my opinion.

 

[occulum]

theyre not horrible. But the Black Ops graphics are a slight step down from MW2 IMO....

Reached level 50 yesterday but found nothing cool or new unlocked...oh well. I have no interest in prestige cause it will just cost me my favorite weapons.

With regards to the multiplayer

I much prefer the look of Blops compared to MW2 - it is much darker and grittier at times giving it a dirtier, grungy feel rather than the pristene, very colourful almost arcade look of MW2.

I loved Modern Warfare 1 - still the best online shooter in my opinion

I felt Modern Warfare 2 tried too hard and I didn't enjoy it as much but I appricate that many gamers do love it, it just was not for me - it felt more like an arcade game

I've been playing Blops a lot and the more I do, the more I love it. It does feel like World at War at times but that is to be expected considering Treyarch made it - however, it has a feel of MW1 to it I think, which I find really enjoyable. I didn't like many of the guns to start with but the Ak74u has grown on me a lot and the Commando unlocked at level 44 is fantastic.

I love the currency system and the ability to buy the upgrades YOU want, not what the game decides you unlock. I also feel the game feels more balanced - guns are balanced and the power of the shotguns and snipers has been greatly reduced - plus the new diving ability is both fun and useful - makes jumping to cover very fun and adds a sense of realism plus when you see others players doing it it looks great!

If I was going to rank them it would be like this...

1. Modern Warfare 1
2. Black Ops
3. Modern Warfare 2
4. World at War

I got bored so I played the first two missions on Veteran. What a difference it is from Hardened to Veteran. I died more times on the prison mission than I did the entire playthrough on Hardened.

a.k.a. all those people with Turtle Beach headphones have their advantage back.

What advantage is that?? I've never heard of this. Is this something like the FragFX that gives people with no skill an extra perk???

Hopefully you didn't waste your time then getting the midnight release with your sweet review videos.

It's a lot like the FragFX that gives people with no skill an extra perk.

With headphones, you can crank up the volume to hear footsteps better. It's not a huge advantage, but you know the people who were _____ing about the sound own those type of headphones.
