Game Review: Call of Duty Black Ops

So, the gaming event of the century has come around: the 7th installation in the highest-selling FPS series of all time has arrived! Black Ops is a pleasant improvement on Modern Warfare 2, the previous installation, with few problems or glitches so far. I liked the addition of money as a way to unlock features. It was a good balance of making things super easy to get, or unimaginably hard to get as well. I've only really played the Multiplayer and Zombie modes so far. The Multiplayer is great, the stages are pretty awesome and I like the new and returning killstreaks (RCXD, Dogs). The graphics are a bit weird at first if you've been playing CODMW2, but you soon realize that it's just different, not any worse than the last one. Treyarch was creative in making this game set in the 60s and 70s; I've never actually seen a big-budget mainstream game set then, and it turned out to be a good idea, based on the sales. I hadn't played Zombies on WAW, but from what I've played on this, I don't like it. But don't take my word for it: it's apparently almost the same as the one from WAW, so if you liked that, you'll like this. It's possibly also because I only played for about 5 minutes, and was only allowed to use a pistol. Anyways, some people say it's not as good as MW2, but I believe it's at least at the same level, if not better.
