"Call of Duty: Black Ops is a little bittersweet for us. It’s sweet because the game itself is a good one. The single player was enjoyable, the multiplayer is absolutely fantastic and overall this is another solid offering from Treyarch.
It’s bitter because we’ve realized that this formula has probably reached the end of its enjoyment and we’re not sure that Activision will identify that. Black Ops might just be the peak of the Call of Duty franchise, but for the good of the series and the gamers that play it, we hope the next iteration starts building a new mountain."
The video on Black Ops 1 shows some separate rooms, assets, and other features which exist outside of the boundary of the game.
From DownSights: "Black Ops is not Black Ops without Nuketown. Following the tradition of releasing Nuketown for Black Ops games, the new Black Ops Cold War game also offers a revamped Nuketown called Nuketown '84.
Nuketown '84 has the same dimensions and map layout except for the aesthetics. The map's aesthetics have changed to fit the 80s theme, with destroyed buildings and graffiti-filled walls compared to a clean 50s suburban neighborhood seen in Black Ops 1."
Jacob writes: "What do we have with the original Call of Duty: Black Ops? Quite simply, one of the best Call of Duty titles of all time."
Woot woot! Love me some BLOPS!
Great review. Nice to see some balance, rather than just a love-or-hate-fest.
