Call of Duty Black Ops Review


Despite what some people may say.  This is not the best Call of Duty game.  Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 had the best levels.  Call of Duty: Modern Warfare had the best story.  Call of Duty World at War had better zombie levels.  So all that makes this Call of Duty game worse than all the others that we have seen recently.  Their is one good level on Black Ops, Nuketown.  That's the only level that can compare with Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2's map such as: Iraq, Airport, and the first one's Overgrown.  I have to say that Black Ops may add the most diversity ever seen from a Call of Duty game but some features like the emblem creator take away from the game play.  This is how the emblem works.  You are playing a match and you seem some cool looking emblem that looks like a perfect pokeball, alien, Eric Cartmen, or whatever; then you see three more of each of them.  O Wait.. That means that looked it up on YouTube.  Before you know it everyone is running around with the emblem.  In MW2 players had to earn them; like my favorite one where you had to get 500 kills with the Rpg.  People end up relying on YouTube when they want to out perform someones emblem.  The games story makes you say what the hell until the last level.  That's were you say "ooo..okay.. now I know what is going on."  In the others you knew exactly what was going on weather it was a nuclear threat or you trying to stop the Germans.  Some people may not know but some characters that were in Black Ops were in World at War.  The zombie levels are not as good as World at War because their are special zombies now.  If I wanted to play against special infected I would play Left 4 Dead 2.  I don't want things crawling on the floor impairing my vision.  The dogs are okay because it is well known when they are coming (lightning strikes everywhere).  I also did not like how you can no longer look into the sky and figure out where the mystery box is.  I loved being able to get a good gun in World at War, unlike Black Ops where you are stuck using your pee-shooter.  Despite the qualities of this game that I don't like, their are a few good things.  Bullet in a Barrel is lots of fun on Nuketown,  Deathmatch is fun on Nuketown as well,  all the other game modes are a lot of fun on Nuketown (I like Nuketown).  Too bad you can only play Nuketown twice in a row before you are forced to vote for a different level which leaves you playing many levels that suck.  With the confusing story, special zombies, and Nuketown!!! I give this game a 77%
