Holding out for Gran Turismo 5

Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops
 

Well I'm loving it :)

Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops
 

so, is there any real advantage to the hardened version?
4 extra co op maps? I imagine that will be a download soon, right?

Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops
 

I am getting awful performance with the game. It's so bad that I am convinced they didn't even test the game before release. Some BS right now... this video shows exactly what I see when I play.

Pretty much unplayable, they better fix it.

Nothing like that on XBL, but having a very hard time getting groups all in the same game. Of course, right now, there are a bit over 2.35 million players on XBL playing this.

LOVE LOVE LOVE the game though.

Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops
 

Yeah, supposedly its a PC only issue at the moment. Seems to be affecting about 1 in 4 of players. Not sure what's causing it, but its really a game breaker. You cannot even hope to play with that kind of stutter.

Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops
 

My 11th grade daughter just reported that her History teacher took off from work today & tomorrow to play this.

Not sure what to say about that...:sw

Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops
 

I really wanted to take a sick day to play it.

...although I pretty much want to take a sick day every day :D

Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops
 

I bought it yesterday. I haven't bothered to play games since Counter Strike on the PC, but I went ahead and got COD: BO for my PS3. Once I figure out what I am doing, I'll join the online community. So far it looks pretty good.

Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops
 

Picked it up last night, pretty badass. I don't play on the Internet though. My roommate and I can't figure out how to use the co-op multiplayer mode though.

Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops
 

GREAT game. Very, very well done. The story line is intense, and the multiplayer is fantastic. I haven't gotten to play zombie mode, though. I'm hoping to get a chance to today or tomorrow.

If you promise not to grief him in MP, she'll get an A?

Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops
 

I picked it up last night. So far, so good. I just wish I could have Scavenger and Ghost at the same time. :)

Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops
 

I was out for the midnight release and I would say there were 400 people waiting in line for it.

My thoughts...

Core is absolute junk. Considering I like to be a long distance sniper and find lanes core just doesn't do it for me. Having to shoot people so many times that I empty a clip on someone to kill them is not fun. I did find some success going lightweight with a shotgun.

Hardcore is nice. The shotgun attachment on the M16 is very nice. The flame thrower was a great addition.

Graphics...I think MW2 is superior. The graphics don't look crisp for me. the environment starts to blend together.

Maps...pretty good overall...very fun to play. I believe they are superior to MW2. With that said if you like to snipe there are less places to do so from on most maps. They have multiple entry ways to most sniping choke spots and it gets tough to protect your blind side.

Overall I give it a 8.5/10 solid game but does have it's issues. And yes the servers have been an issue but I'm sure that will get worked out.

Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops
 

I bought it yesterday at Toys-R-Us. It was 59.99 and then you got a $20 gift card :)

Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops
 

absolutly great game

Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops
 

Like all the COD games it's far too short

Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops
 

yeah i just beat it tonight, but wow the multiplayer side is amazing!!!

Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops
 

I am going to buy this tomorrow! Doc we will play tomorrow!

Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops
 

Somehow the irony of always ending up as Castro when I play zombie's too much.


BTW my xbl id is the same as my username here.
