I didn't see any other threads on this game, so I'm starting one. If you guys have the game, what do you think of it? I played last night for maybe 3 or 4 hours and it is awesome! There are some subtle differences that I noticed from MW2 such as much more well thought out maps, as well as increased sniping simplicity. There were some things however that I thought were different but I still could not put my finger on exactly what the difference was.
I had planned on playing campaign last night, and thought, "What the hell, I'll try multiplaying for a few games." Well, I played it for all of the 3-4 hours. It was incredible. The maps are great. They make it very possible for gamers of all different styles (submachine gun and snipers alike) to play, as each level has tight quarters as well as crow's nests for sniping. And the remote control explosive car?! That thing is the SHIT.
One thing I thought that was different is that there is not as much background sound effects. I'm gonna have to turn on MW2 again but it seems to me that maybe there was some background music at all times or something to that effect?
For those of you that have played the two major platforms, MW2 and Black Ops, which do you think is better thus far? I'm going to say that Black Ops has better multiplayer online gameplay that does MW2, and there are not so many major killstreaks which had a tendency to make MW2 not quite as fair at times (i.e. there was one game that a guy nuked the map and the most kills that anybody else had was 4, which meant he got 21 more kills, and ZERO deaths, before anybody else). Black Ops levels the playing field.
