Even though i agree with this review, i feel like black ops 2 was one of the best COD games in awhile. it's the only one that kept me playing a bit.
What's goin' on with his voice in this review? It's incredibly fast. Reminds me of Jesse Eisenberg.

I really enjoyed the campaign. Good review though.
Holy shit that sound editing is fucking atrocious
I played Zombies at my friend's house with my two other friends. It was actually really fun. I liked it a lot. But then we played regular DM with bots and then it wasn't so interesting...
Felt sick just watching the video. Seriously, CoD4 was good, BO1 was ok, but holy shit enough already, I am so fed up with this crap I can barely watch it, let alone play it.
[QUOTE=Wii60;38562795]Even though i agree with this review, i feel like black ops 2 was one of the best COD games in awhile. it's the only one that kept me playing a bit.[/QUOTE] Gonna have to agree with that. I'm borrowing it from my brother who doesn't play anything else, and I gotta say I'm positively surprised. When it comes to multiplayer, the only gamemode that's worth bothering with is search and destroy though. Everything else is a spawnkilling shitfest.
I agree with pretty much everything he said but I'd rate fun factor a bit higher.

Don't agree with certain stuff - mostly the kill-streak bonus being imbalanced - but overall seems like a fair review of the game.
They tried to do deathstreaks to help with the players doing badly but iirc everyone bitched the fuck out. They didn't remove them in MW3, but i'm not surprised they were left out of blops 2.
I like how he didn't really mention anything about the whole "slightly futuristic setting" thing because even though it was hyped it doesn't really feel like it's there. I gotta agree that both the leveling system and the killstreaks system are bullshit. I play MW2, I can handle predator missiles, but fuck those AI-controlled no-work-needed choppers and VTOLs people can spawn, and is that thing he was showing when talking about the killstreaks like a predator missile, but easymode, with multiple rockets? What the fucl.
who cares about these legitimate criticisms this guy just dosent know how to hav fun
If you want a grind fest, go play a free2play game. You don't need to pay money for the same exact thing.
[QUOTE=don868;38563872]If you want a grind fest, go play a free2play game. You don't need to pay money for the same exact thing.[/QUOTE] only the grind is much much shittier and it's p2w you can have fun playing a modern warfare game (!!!), more so than you'd have with most F2P games (cue rabid flavor of the month "it's actually not shit!" F2P game fans)
now that they've gone from humor to legit critique they don't seem to do anything but point out the blatantly obvious.
first he says the sounds are okay, then he gives them a 5/10. Am I missing something?
[QUOTE=Rocco101;38564718]first he says the sounds are okay, then he gives them a 5/10. Am I missing something?[/QUOTE] Well half of the BL2 review was him bitching about internet meme references that you pretty much had to hunt for, so I am guessing he isn't the most professional of reviewers...

Why didn't he mention zombies and how come he said it is linear in the campaign something tells me he only rushed to MP to see what's new.
This review was pretty good. Much better than his Borderlands 2 review where he spend half of the video complaining about references and subpar jokes.
[QUOTE=RichyZ;38568927]campaign was pretty linear, it had choices here and there, but it all led to the same outcome and rode through the generally same path[/QUOTE] Yeah fair enough but at least it was there I guess, strike force sucked a lot of dick tho
[QUOTE=Rocco101;38564718]first he says the sounds are okay, then he gives them a 5/10. Am I missing something?[/QUOTE] 5/10 is average, also known as "okay". What's the problem?
[QUOTE=milkandcooki;38569403]This review was pretty good. Much better than his Borderlands 2 review where he spend half of the video complaining about references and subpar jokes.[/QUOTE] Didn't really like this review, the massive amount of splicing and fast talking made it really hard to listen to it. I know some of the other reviews have the edittor chopping sentences together, but it's usually not that often.
[QUOTE=NotAName;38569519]5/10 is average, also known as "okay". What's the problem?[/QUOTE]The modern review scale (thanks to Metacritic) goes from 7-10, not 1-10. 7-8 is "OK" in this scenario.
[QUOTE=SgtWoodsy;38569598]The modern review scale (thanks to Metacritic) goes from 7-10, not 1-10. 7-8 is "OK" in this scenario.[/QUOTE] Maybe that system is stupid and he has his own system? Rating mediocre games 7-8 is retarded.
[QUOTE=SgtWoodsy;38569598]The modern review scale (thanks to Metacritic) goes from 7-10, not 1-10. 7-8 is "OK" in this scenario.[/QUOTE] Actually, I think it has to do more with your average school grading system, aka 100-90 = A, 89-80 = B, 79-70 = C, etc.
