Call of Duty: Black Ops
Call of Duty: Black Ops set for Nov. 9, 2010
by Ludwig Kietzmann ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Your ability to recognize insanely popular brands has likely meshed with your ability to recognize dates, rendering the text in this post rather superfluous. Unfortunately for you, we all get paid extra for using lots and lots of words -- especially ones like "superfluous."
Activision has unveiled the official website for Call of Duty: Black Ops, the latest entry from the franchise's alternate developer, Treyarch (they're the ones you haven't been reading about as much these days). Aside from its title and what appears to be a release date -- November 9th, 2010 -- Black Ops remains enshrouded in mystery and somewhat superfluous (we're up to 16 cents!) smoke. Expect to see much more when GTTV reveals the first footage later today. [Via XboxGaming] |

There is too many Call of Duty games, its becoming a whore game like street fighter was before they slowed down on it.

So what they really meant is, this is a Call of Duty exactly the same as the others, but with new backdrops.
Pass. |

Supposedly last level is based on the Iranian Embassy Siege in 1980 and the farthest in time the game goes.

Depends on whats going to be in the multiplayer for weaponary.
If its anything like MW2, I wouldnt spend over $20 to get the game due to the frustration factor. |

If I hear of One Man Army, Thermal, Juggernaut/Painkiller, Heartbeat Sensor, Danger Close, MLC Knifers I am not touching this game.

I wouldnt pay $70 for a game that frustrates me to the point that MW2 has and continues to do at some points.
Give me real guns, with real scopes and real equipment and I am happy. As for killstreaks, def need to take some out and nerf the gunner. |

I was under the impression you liked MW2, FAngel. I have all manner of complaints about the game (series) but you seemed alright with it.

oh you know FA...he bitches to hell and high water about MW2, but plays it religiously, changed his gamertag to form a clan for it, etc etc.
He will buy this, then complain, and still play it. Also, this game looks pretty sweet, and i wanna see where they take single player. When MW2 was announced, i was more excited about the continuation of the single player over multi. |

I had this huge post typed out, but fuck it. Just gonna say, FA would probably burn his card deck if he didn't win at solitaire. Seriously dude, don't like the game, sell it and go buy some ice cream to wallow in.

Dice's big gamble that prone was hurting gameplay experience and was thus nixed in Battlefield proved successful, imo. You hardly notice it and when you do think about it, you have nothing but joy-joy feelings inside yourself. Fuck prone.

if you even played BC or BC2, you'll realize that prone is not important. There's enough f'n snipers in that game online without prone, and the maps are big and diverse enough that sniping 'spots' are anything but a guarantee visual check list

A true sniper would want it, but a true competitive gamer would want the added balance.
