Call of Duty: Black Ops

There are few video games released this year that you simply cannot miss, Call of Duty: Black Ops is one of them.

The total amount of worthwhile content makes paying full price for most other games feel like a crime. Treyarch has closed the gap between its games and the Modern Warfare franchise with boundless customization, a keen sense of what makes the formula a success, and listening to fans. You won't regret answering the call once again.

This is Treyarchs Masterpiece! It may not blow you away like Modern Warfare did back at its time, but it shure as hell is an intense shooter-experience with a multiplayer-part, that will keep you busy for months!

Black Ops is another game that shows why the Call of Duty franchise continues its stranglehold over the shooter genre.

The campaign is relentlessly aggressive and spectacular – a Jerry Bruckheimer tribute act stuck in permanent encore – while the multiplayer modes are a mixture of smart tweaks to working formulas, as focused on protecting that guaranteed bottom line as the campaign's yellow objective cursor is on making sure you never falter.

There are games that deserve to be relegated to the bargain bin, or played when there's simply nothing else on the shelf. This is one of them. It's not broken, it's just bad.

9.5 – Black Ops blends Cold War espionage, cinematic storytelling, and polished gameplay. Its campaign and multiplayer are both highly engaging and memorable.

What you have to understand about me before reading this review is that the only thing i really expect from a cod game before going in is a smooth shooting gallery type experience, all i really want is to be able to shoot a lot of guys and for it to feel satisfying. For what ive played from this franchise (which is pretty much just this and MW2) black ops does alot to get between you and what i just descripbed, theres constant qte sequences and really annoying breaks in gameplay in general. But what youget for that in return is some actually interesting theming and a story that actually tries to say something which i can really appreciate.

Best cod campain one of my favorite zombies and iconic mp withgoated maps fun no sbmm, gold camo i like this game

I am someone who went straight from CoD 4 to Black Ops, and let me tell ya, this game is TERRIBLE. Call of Duty: Black Ops is VERY repetitive and takes no skill. The developers did not try at all to add variety to the game. It got so boring.

Just bought this for £10 & what a waste of money, horrible gameplay , unimaginative ways of making the game hard (infinite enemy spawns, grenade spam etc) all meaning you cannot use your own strategy to beat it , I should have learned my lesson from waw... no more cod for me.
