Call Of Duty: Black Ops

[.:: GimpS-R34 ::.]

yeah had organised to go to the midnight launch at jb.. not going anymore.. you can download a copy of Black ops on torrents.. i didnt bother as i don't have any chips in my consoles and i'm happy to wait..

if you were to torrent it, you cant play online unless AlterIWnet make a pirate version of Black Ops.

The whole purpose of any cod game isn't for the campaign. Legit is the way to go because multiplayer is where all the action is... Oh and zombies mode

[Hawkboy4]

Oh and zombies mode

there only one true zombie mode map which is the first WaW one.

[EeLeYe]

Looking forward to that dedicated server. My copy will be coming in the mail. Hopefully it won't take too long...

lol ive been browsing through the eb website and i saw there midnight launch pics, theres pizza, dj's, rc car races and lan matches at the sydney store that is doing the premium launch. i also watched the black ops timer on the site for the last hour and i saw it get to zero. wasnt as cool as i though it would be.

EB will price match - they did it when i grabbed my copy of SC2.

So just go in with a brochure from a competitor and you'll be right.

They will kick up a stink about it (the guys i approached did at least), but they did it none the less and i was $30 better off

someone review the game - on PC, im not convinced it'll be worth it

[maddowse]

Game is hard !! But still good

This is the problem, it used to be new COD - buy COD, Treyarch less great but passable.

Now I actually have to find someone that I can trust to have an informed opinion but is also willing to actually buy Black Ops which so far is none. No one that I know with an opinion on games that I respect is willing to shell out for Black Ops after the MW2 monster fail.

From the gameplay vids I am not convinced at all, in fact they are nearly all xbox and all with crappy lag spikes and auto-aim fail.

So far I have seen rage from installation failures, rage from server browser bugs and 'easier than MW2' like below. Also 'guns less accurate than MW2'.

i managed to get the game (pc version) last night at midnight launch and install. played multplayer for a cpl hours.. seems even easier than mw2 and is buggy as f**k.. i seem to get random lag spikes for no reason even though im getting 50 ping.. so far not overly impressed

Not a good start.
