CRank: 5Score: 6840

5 reasons why Black Ops got boring fast.

1. The sound in the game is terrible, it's so dull and unrealistic. Sound is arguably the most important part of a shooter. It needs to be loud, crisp and realistic. It amplifies the shooter experience more than anything else.

2. Too many guns sucked.

3. Sniper rifles were so nerfed to the point they felt broken

4. Too many customizations options. I know it sounds weird, but when ...

Probably not anytime soon considering it still sees well over a thousand logins per day. These games bring shut down are literally ghost towns with a few dozen logins per day

Nice to see a good article before the inevitable Batman shooter was influenced by violent video games articles start rolling out

You just said the gameplay isn't a whole lot of fun. It's fine of you disagree, just saying.

I think my 3 reasons are why Call of Duty just keeps going. It hits those 3 nails on the head year after year. People may start hating the gameplay, but for any newcomer, as all of us once were, they could easily fall in love with it's fast and hectic gameplay if its new to them.

I'm playing it right now. It has cool elements but too much cover to cover shooting. The cut scenes, story and acting are great, even the graphics are real good, all fairly close to on par with Uncharted believe it or not. But gameplay is below average as well as the controls.

Gameplay, controls and Environment is all that matters. You can have the greatest story ever, but if the game takes place in a cardboard box with horrible charatcer movements it will suck. If you have a shitty story but the game takes place in an awesome environment, smooth controls with lots of cool stuff to do the game will rock.

It's down because there is no "new" price drop for Xbox this year. However, they do have that 99 dollar thing planned that will surely boost sales.

They're doing preorder incentives something cod never does. There is your proof the game is gonna suck.

Lol Robert bowling. Will there be last stand in his game?

It's because the games left u wanting more. Fanboys will always hope the next game brings it, but it almost always never does.

If Socom 4 ever fixed it's headshot issue, I'd say it's the greatest online shooter this generation. It's a true complete shooter. Great maps that are both big and small, and classic maps that will blow ur mind with how they look, not kiddy cod looking maps. Great game modes unlike other games and all are available in Non respawn as well. Up to 32 players and it runs flawlessly. Both zipper games (mag, Socom 4) were really overlooked by ps3 gamers. Now zipper is gone. It'...

That list is terrible. Firing range and terminal are overrated.

My top 5 would be

Ambush
Strike
Array
Favela
Castle

Downpour from cod4 was also crazy. The most hectic map in the cod series. A true linear madhouse unlike the gay high rise

Lol I almost forgot how bad black ops was on ps3 that was embarrassing considering it was the biggest game in the world at the time and released after mw2 which ran flawless on ps3

I bet black ops 2 will be more of the same. Bad frame rate, gun camos taking 2 seconds to load after spawning, laggy menus. Zombies was the worst, it gave you a headache the framerate and lag were so bad

BF3 makes me say that. Bad company is decent but they're not ground breaking shooters.

Battlefield is the most overrated shooter of all time. EA's marketing hype can get any fanboy to dance

So long as there are fanboys there will be console wars

It's not a free map, it was already made. Plus it's only being put in to get people to log back on mw3 in hopes to sell more elite
