Is Call of Duty Black Ops a bust?

Last week saw the release of Call of Duty: Black Ops, which is arguably the most anticipated game of 2010. The day before the game was released reviewers were raving about what an excellent game Black Ops turned out to be, however, gamer's around the web have been making their opinions heard, and so far those opinions are of a mixed bag. Given the hype of the game, the rave-reviews and the mixed fan reaction it has become fair to ask, is Call of Duty: Black Ops a bust?

I haven't had one single problem with the game on PS3.

For all these peaps stating this is the best game ever... do you work for Trekyarch's sales team? Everyone is having the same issues but some people can't face the facts. Why defend a flaud game? Did you tell your friend to buy it with his last buck or something. Rip this game a new one. expose the man behind the curtain and demand a fix. The game has a great design but it simple doesn't work right.
...or keep blinders on and pack another bowl.

and have had nothing but connection problems. at least every 5th game or so i get kicked or members of my party get kicked. Ive even had my ps3 freeze up a few times too.

I've had the game freeze once on PS3. But I have also had minor connection issues. I'd say maybe 1 out of every 10 games ends in a disconnect.

It's sold like 10 million copies already . . . so, no?

Pretty sure it turned a profit . . .

You are speaking of a flop, not a bust my friend. It's all semantics.

Black ops 4, because it was the last cod of duty I was able to dominate with a +2 k/d ratio. Before all the freaking cheating started to happen. It was nice catching people off guard and shooting at them first and getting the kill. Unlike now, where I shoot people first, but they gun me down with less hits, less time, literally feels like they can kill me in a split second. At times, they are able to run away after me shooting them way more than necessary, yet, the second I'm spotted, I'm dead, there's no me running away to cover. They can do cartwheels, summersaults, backflips and gun you down perfectly. They can shoot you across the map with perfect accuracy. They can jump around like morons and gun you down without even having to correct their aim. They have superman split second perfect reactions. That's the best way to describe it, everything they do is spot on perfect. They can spam and spray (no praying) their gun from far away, because they have no recoil or bullet spread. It always feels like I have to aim and also correct my aim when moving around, while these pricks don't have to do the same.

And yes, I know how to play fps games. I dominated many fps games like: Resistance 1&2, kz 2&3, Socom, MAG, Crysis, Gotham City Impostors, blitz brigade etc. all with 2-4 k/d ratio. Kz2 (lag input controls) and resistance (no aim assist in resistance) being the hardest and were the games I reached either close to a 3 k/d ratio or above.

I truly got to enjoy blacks ops 4 and got my money's worth out of it. Afterwords, I would either stop playing cod games after a while, because of the cheating, or would skip buying cod games for a year or two before buying another.

Black Ops 1 Nuketown versus Cold War Nuketown '84

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."
