6 Reasons Why CoD:Black Ops Won't Flop

because its call of duty and millions buy it every yr.....

Spydiggity5841d ago

gamers that are involved more with the community, like people who read magazines, websites, leave comments, etc... get the illusion that this is how most gamers are. it's actually the opposite. most gamers are uninformed consumers that buy 2 franchises every year and that's about it. Madden and COD. they don't read about gaming news, they don't pay attention to upcoming releases; they just buy the franchises they've grown to think they can bank on.

based on pure speculation, i'll bet that 75%+ of the people that buy the next COD won't even know the setting of the game until a week or two before launch.

sikbeta5841d ago

Just look at the sales of MW2 and it's becoming like Madden, every year a new game and people just buy it, so making an "article" about this is just pointless...

As soon as I saw the title I was like WTF are they talking about?
COD will sell millions because of brand recognition alone.

I didn't know CoD: Black Ops was supposed to be a flop. It won't have the commercial success of Modern Warfare 2, but it won't flop either.

NastyLeftHook5841d ago (Edited 5841d ago )

it dosent matter if call of duty came out on a new apple console, or for instance dreamcast 2, everyone is dumb enough to buy call of duty every year. no matter what console its on its most likely going to sell better than other games, so i say, killzone 2 is the ps3's best shooter.

Mannn… worlds scaries police chases… that took me back lol

Ape Escape.
Fun game but, wow, you need a college degree to understand the controls.
A remaster would also save you from having to constantly fight the camera.
Keep the music though. Those drum and bass tracks fit really well and haven't aged. Made me think that more games could work well with drum and bass tracks, but unfortunately it's a somewhat niche genre now.

Max Payne Series
Infamous 1 & 2
NBA Street Vol 2
SSX

YourMommySpoils464d ago

One of the few Xbox games I own. I have 3 copies of it because of the many discs it has, for just in case reasons

jznrpg465d ago (Edited 465d ago )

Black ops 4, because it was the last cod of duty I was able to dominate with a +2 k/d ratio. Before all the freaking cheating started to happen. It was nice catching people off guard and shooting at them first and getting the kill. Unlike now, where I shoot people first, but they gun me down with less hits, less time, literally feels like they can kill me in a split second. At times, they are able to run away after me shooting them way more than necessary, yet, the second I'm spotted, I'm dead, there's no me running away to cover. They can do cartwheels, summersaults, backflips and gun you down perfectly. They can shoot you across the map with perfect accuracy. They can jump around like morons and gun you down without even having to correct their aim. They have superman split second perfect reactions. That's the best way to describe it, everything they do is spot on perfect. They can spam and spray (no praying) their gun from far away, because they have no recoil or bullet spread. It always feels like I have to aim and also correct my aim when moving around, while these pricks don't have to do the same.

And yes, I know how to play fps games. I dominated many fps games like: Resistance 1&2, kz 2&3, Socom, MAG, Crysis, Gotham City Impostors, blitz brigade etc. all with 2-4 k/d ratio. Kz2 (lag input controls) and resistance (no aim assist in resistance) being the hardest and were the games I reached either close to a 3 k/d ratio or above.

I truly got to enjoy blacks ops 4 and got my money's worth out of it. Afterwords, I would either stop playing cod games after a while, because of the cheating, or would skip buying cod games for a year or two before buying another.
