| Carl2291 said: I'd disagree and give it a 9 at least. The graphics are awesome. It's the exact same engine as MW2, but with (IMO) better and more varied locations and a lot more going on at one time. Yet they rate it .5 lower than MW2. Strange. And lasting appeal of 9 for a CoD game is simply stupid. Call of Duty has the most popular Multiplayer of any game on the Xbox or PlayStation. Black Ops has the most customizable Multiplayer experience of all the CoD games. It has Zombies that MW doesn't have. It has Co-op Multiplayer. It has split-screen Online. Lasting Appeal is not possibly only a 9 for this game... Gameplay is also strangely low. The controls are perfect. There are more new weapons for you to play with. More part of the game where you can drive vehicles. They gave MW2's Gameplay a 9.5... This is pretty much the same with more added on and they gave it an 8. Sound - No complaints. Sountrack is the best I've heard in a CoD game since... Well.. Ever.
I think the big reviewers are mainly going to rate this badly for 2 reasons - They see how much they overrated Modern Warfare 2 or They simply have a boner for Infinity Ward/ Modern Warfare. |
I'd agree with that. When your reading articles and listening to podcasts, you come to realise a few things, like the industries love for Harmonix, Rockstar Games and Infinity Ward. They rave about those companies so much, they hang out with the PR and developers from them and then when the time comes for a review, they're guaranteed 9's and 10's across the board. It's pretty shameful and it doesn't help that they're tricking gamers just because they have a special friendship with a few developers.
Bet with Conegamer and AussieGecko that the PS3 will have more exclusives in 2011 than the Wii or 360... or something.
