CoD4 was not mediocre and it had the best MP in the series for the time, other than that CoD3 really was a mediocre game and WaW was an annoying piece of shit all around, with its only gimmick being zombies, which is why I'm hesitant to drop $60 on a video game like this.
Seriously $60 is at least a week's worth of food.

Call of Duty 3 and World at War are not bad games, you're just on the anti-Treyarch Pro-Infinity Ward bandwagon that lasted up to Modern Warfare 2.

Treyarch cannot create a good atmosphere in Multiplayer.
The maps seem rather vacant, with not much atmospheric sound, the maps are too big so you end up running about trying to find enemies on a small server. On top of that the sound in general just isn't very effective.
I haven't played Black Ops but until I do I still consider Treyarch a mediocre developer at best and a tool of their publisher at worst.

Assuming that the peak Black ops players and the peak MW2 players are mostly separate people, thats 130,241 playing call of duty multiplayer just today. Even if the console audience is larger, that is still plenty of profit.[/QUOTE]
On the Xbox 360 there is around 2-3 million players and it will hit 4 million at the peak times.

[quote]Estimates as to the number of Vietnamese soldiers and civilians killed vary from less than one to more than three million, while an additional 100-600,000 Cambodians, 30-50,000 Laotians and 58,159 U.S. soldiers also died in the conflict.[/quote]
I'm just saying, don't you think that these people deserve at least some historical accuracy rather than their death be glamorised and turned into an advertising campaign if the war is going to be used for pure entertainment value? It's just respect don't you think? If they want to make it look like an action movie they could quite easily just make up a war rather than use a real one. I think that if a game is using a real war, they should atleast have some respect for the participants.
Games have been doing that for years
[QUOTE=Asm;25954451]I don't understand, the game runs great for me[/QUOTE]
Not until you try and max the graphics
[QUOTE=HAKKAR!!!;26051070]Games have been doing that for years[/QUOTE]
You're missing my point... I'm not saying that games should stop doing it either, I was just saying why I disagree with it and why it'd be a bit more respectful if they would stick to what actually happened if they must. Some games have been very successful at doing that and have been so, so much better at it. If you remember the first time you played the intro mission to Medal of Honour: Front-line where you land at the beaches, you'll know what I'm trying to say.

You know, you can still play after unlocking everything.
i think the CoD franchise should lay down and die :suicide:
Also, played Fall of Doody Modem Whorefare Poo for the first time in like 6 months today... It sucked just as bad as i remember it :geno: Well, enough ranting from my side, i guess CoD fans should get it, but with a pricetag/quality ratio like that, i'm gonna pass on this one

everyone needs to take an economics class before they complain about video game prices.

Like this idiot/
BlOps turned out pretty well IMO the only problem from MW2 that's unfixed is the terrible spawns apparently but i haven't had a problem with this.
Overall it's how CoD should have been in the first place.
If you're considering getting this it's worth getting but not at the current price, you could try shop around or wait a while but knowing Nazivision the price wont go down until at least a month after christmas.

Let me use this post to tell everybody that launch day does not mean the peak of players. Considering the peak today is 50,000 more than launch day.

AHAHAH! What's the source of your data? According to the last official report from microsoft the peak of concurrent online (not playing games, just online) xbox live users was 2.2 million which is actually very comparable to steam.

[QUOTE=SuPeR_MaN;25970922]They also called the Vietnamese "Tangos" meaning "terrorist" which they obviously didn't call them during that period... not to mention red dot sights and ACOG scopes in the 60's... They first were put in use in the 70's i think...
[sp]Oh yeah and you break out of prison holding a Minigun called "death machine".. Yep.. and take out a chopper using a harpoon attached to a shotgun with a rope on it which obviously is stronger than the helicopter and it tries to fly away but fails (obviously) causing it to crash into a building.

Tango can mean either target or terrorist. It was first used by special operatives in the early Cold War/Vietnamese War.

Oh, thats funny, because i dont recall saying i didnt play BO. I've played it alright. It's enjoyable for half an hour at most, then it feels like MW2. You didnt think i'd jump to these conclusions without knowing what i was talking about, did you? The last decent CoD game was the first modern warfare, MW2 was a step up in content and a step down in atmosphere, and then theres BO, which is a huge drop in over-all quality. As i said, CoD fanboys should get it, but its just too little for too much in my opinion

Actually I'd have said it was far more like CoD4 than MW2, in terms of gameplay.
Seeing as killstreaks are actually not gamebreaking in Bl:ops

Cod 3? It never existed, its a lie, a LIEEE!
No seriously, never, EVER played it or watched gameplay videos, neither i have a freind/som dude that knows/played it.
CoD4 was not mediocre, in my opinion it's second best, behind CoD2 in terms of multiplayer.
