Well, my brother got Black ops and I have to say, I am very pleasantly surprised. This game is awesome! I am loving the maps, the new way they did load-outs ( using money to buy perks and stuff for playercard) The gameplay feels a lot smoother to me, and the hitbox feels a lot similar to reach's. The other day, I was using the basic m16 and got 57 kills and 6 deaths as a random in ground war. The decreased power of noob toobs and rocket launchers makes me happy, and the killstreaks seem really fair now that you can't use them to advance to the next one. So far, my favorite killstreak is the blackbird. Being able to see enemy player's positions and direction is BA.
One other thing that has me hooked on Black ops is the zombie mode. It is incredibly fun, for it feels a lot more like a zombie invasion that WAW. They (the zombies) actually have a tendency to swarm, which makes stages have the appropriate intensity, and I am loving how the difficulty dramatically ramps up round to round.
With all this awesomeness, and the rate that Treyarch is fixing problems (much faster than infinity ward? It just seems that way to me. Please correct me if I'm wrong) the game is simply becoming even better. I will be splitting my time 55/40 between Reach and Blackops with Mass Effect 2 taking up the last 5 percent. (Gotta finish my corrected ME campaign and bang Tali!Giggty Giggty
