Call of Duty- Balck Ops - Full Review

[Gabe_dead]

So today I beat the S.P for Black ops, my review is this, the story line is ok, its based in the cold war, but takes you back as a soviet soldgier to fight against the germans, the Natzis are very involved in the story line. and pretty much it all leads up to this weapon called Nova 6 and the russians teaming up with the SS to release this chemical on Britan and the United States. the graphics are very good, you drive a gun boat in vietnam and your at the siege of Khe Sahn also you escape from a russian prison and a bunch of other stuff... ---------- Post added at 12:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:52 PM ---------- in essence its a good game and the M.P is sick and Natzi Zombies is incorporated into the Menu so its and active part of the game

A) How'd you get the game already? B) You call that a full review?

so is this campaign as short (6 hours or so) and full of ridiculous plot-holes as the last game? seems like the majority of effort goes into the MP mode, which is something i am sick of, too...those fucking non-stop kill streaks just ruined MW2.

One thing's for sure. The graphics have come a long way. http://www.ign.com/ The link won't take you directly to it for some reason. Just scroll down a little.

No problem with you scoring the game earily but I think it's a load of bullshit that this kinda shit happens. How do you not get banned? That kinda shit looks like it'd be easy to steal you $60 dollars and ban your console. I know I would if I was microsoft.

The consumer shouldn't be and isn't banned for purchasing a game early because it is not their fault; it's the retailer's fault. It's not the same as cheating or anything like that. If there were any kind of action taken, I would feel the most suiting thing to do would be to reset all of the achievements and online rankings the early-buyer scored, once everyone else got the game.

It's not the deer's fault for eating the veggies out of my garden because I'm the dirty bastard that put the food there to entice them. It's my fault because I didn't put up a fence. If they jump that fence, then it's still my fault because the fence was too short. Come on, give me a break. It's the same concept as thief by recieving. Criminals steal things that don't belong to them in order to sell them off and make $$$. Without people to buy the stolen crap, they are stuck holding hot items and risk going to jail. The thief knows that there is a market for cheap stuff and figures how much money he stands to make out weights the risk. Part of this exist because of the shitty justice system the US has in place though. If your buying stuff before the release date, your creating the market for these early release sales. I'm not sure what the vendor gets out of earily game sales unless it's the little man trying to rack up some consumers. He does however have every right to buy the game earily but at his own risk. Halo Reach got alot of people banned by doing so. The first achievement/trophy you get that's before the release date is something to sweat about.

Since your analogies are a bit outrageous, I'll make an outrageous one of my own: Suppose you're starving and somebody has a great meal sitting in front of you. They say "You can eat now and feel great, or you can continue to starve for another 4 hours." What would you do? He didn't steal the game, he paid for it. And he probably paid extra. He's enjoying it on his own. It's not like he bought it for shelf price, then turned around and sold it off to someone for double the amount (which I've seen a ton of people doing on Craigs List). I think it would be fair to reset his achievements and progress on release date. But to ban him? That's a bit much.

I smell some Hateration.... ---------- Post added at 02:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:23 PM ---------- and They do reset the achievements on the release day...same thing happened with the last call of duty...

[Mr. Clean]

It's the lack of disipline in the whole system that's annoying. Halo Reach was leaked and microsoft said they were going to ban Gamertag + Console Serial Number of those people they caught doing so. Easy way to get someone to go buy another console. and get your sniffer checked. Hateration would mean I envy you. I can wait until the release date. Probably won't play it much after tuesday until this up coming weekend. 12 hour shifts, 2 screaming kids, and a needy wife leaves little time for me to dive into a game in the middle of the week. For the record, the only people I currently envy is all those lucky ass retired individuals who wake up, drink coffee, and think "ahhhh" this is the life.

Watch that Movie " Its a Wonderful Life" maybe you'll feel better.

the condensed review goes something like "today I played black ops"
