Call of Duty: Black Ops Review - Any Good?


Treyarch's latest kick to the top of the hill for the best First Person Shooter Game in their ever so amazing Call of Duty Franchise is here, Cal of Duty: Black Ops is the most recent installment in the franchise and is the eighth release since the first Call of Duty back in 2003. Now, it's not a secret how the Call of Duty Franchise fairs in the video game industry. It has been the leading online-multiplayer FPS Video Game for quite a few years now, every release is anticipated and improvements and advances are being made at each and every release of Call of Duty which started it roots at a World War II setting and has now grew into a huge franchise, which now set in modern, more technological warfare.

However, Call of Duty: Black Ops released after one of the best FPS game ever made thus far, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. Had its work cut out, and most players feel that this game was more of a rendition to Modern Warfare 2 rather than to be a full blown sequel. You can't really argue much with that case because, with what Modern Warfare 2 had that pleased every gamer who has ever played the game. It would be extremely hard to spin out of the setting and the features of the previous installment. Although, there are still significant changes with Black Ops, and is very much enough for it to be merited a league of its own. The game involves numerous tweaks and small improvements rather than any kind of reinvention of the franchise.

For example, multiplayer mode now awards players currency ("CoD Points") that they can use to purchase perks, weapons, and other accessories. A new Combat Training mode has been added to help beginners, and there's also more player customization than ever before, and a new emphasis on sharing video highlights of your games with your friends in Theater Mode.

The Single Player Campaign Story line is significantly interesting too; Gamers will play Alex Mason, a captured Black Ops soldier being interrogated about some unknown "Numbers Station". The mysterious journey holds your attention up to the action-packed finale. The initial question of "What do the numbers mean?" plays a provocative role in the underlying theme of the plot and gives you more than enough incentive to keep holding the controller. The Online Multiplayer Modes should most probably be the best bid that Black Ops has against other releases. Black Ops fixes deplored balancing issues, brings a revolutionary currency system, and adds new game modes. Instead of rewarding cheap tactics, Black Ops tests real skill.

Choosing your weapon and perk layout, adjusting to the map, and adapting to the current game mode are imperative to success. In Black Ops, there is no super-class that trumps all battlefield situations. This outstanding level of balance is the first of its kind. And it certainly is one of the factors that made this game the competitive game that online gamers adore and love. Surely, patronage to Call of Duty: Black Ops will continue through even after the next installment will be released.
