Call of Duty Black Ops Review + Gameplay (Campaign & Multi Player)

2010-11-15
hello there internet this is kevin from tech post lunch and dinner with our full review of call of duty black ops with the xbox 360 ps3 wii and pc and as you can see here on the 360 version the game just plays beautifully weapon and environment detail are both great and the animation is extremely smooth with rarely ever any minut signs of slow down as far as the actual gameplay itself goes black ops isn't breaking any boundaries but does a good job at attempting to protect the call of duty formula multiplayer gameplay is for the most part the same albeit with a number of tweaks and balances as far as recoil and timing bring some of the killstreak rewards have changed as well including the return of attack dogs and the addition of a remote control car that can explode all the games familiar modes are still here however you must level up in order to unlock new modes to play free-for-all can get bogged down with campers but the game really shines in its team play where cooperation makes all the difference where multiplayer really feels its changes however are in the form of character customization players now have a much greater degree of control over what kind of custom classes that can make but the wealthy assortment of primary weapons choose from each with a number of attachments to choose from parks have been changed up a bit allowing for a different combination of abilities and even go so far as to affect the appearance of the character in addition to the perks appearance effect players can also customize warpaint camo on guns and even the appearance of their laser sights if available players also have the ability to customize their own emblem with a large assortment of different symbols to pick and a large amount of layering to allow for an almost infinite number of possible emblems all of this together leads to an almost unprecedented amount of customization for an FPS and as for numerous strategies and play styles the game's campaign is fairly straightforward with a plotline that while not entirely original is executed well enough to be engaging for the player the environments you travel through our varied enough to hold interest ranging from Cuba to Russia and the large part focused on Vietnam missions also try their best to mix things up a bit by throwing in the occasional vehicle mission which are just long enough and action packed enough to provide a lot of fun and a good break from standard game the campaign is also really short only taking about 10 to 12 hours to complete on regular difficulty and that's for a subpar FPS player like myself last but not least the zombies mode also makes its return in this installment requiring players team up against hordes of zombies as they try to break in and swarm them but most part this mode is largely unchanged but i will say that one particular map that needs unlocking leads to one of the most hilarious zombie situations i've ever seen overall black ops is a solid addition of the series offering a good multiplayer experience and a large amount of player fishing today that being said however the core gameplay is still very much the same and as a result the game is basically going to feel no different from playing a prettier version of the last installment if you're a fan of the series then you'll love black ops just as much as the others but if the series has never really done anything for you and this one will do little to change your mind unless all you've been waiting for hours customization on that's our view for call of duty black ops i'm kevin for tldtoday thanks for watching
