Call of Duty: Black Ops Single Player Review

[Joethebestest]

What's the song at 2:00



[Joethebestest]

I didn't really like this COD, but just an opinion

[5000mtx]

whats the song they play at 2:00?

[ps3or360idontknow]

@YensiTeasu you only played world at war, modern warfare 2 and black ops haven't you? If you played all cod games, you would know this does NOT have the best single player.

[thoomas1996]

i like this story than any other cod game

[Kdawwg4417]

Hudson: where were you born

Mason: kiss my ass

Me and Weaver: oh wheres that

Me: JINX

[LaoBoi1216]

Campaign gave me a head ache

[weirdokilla]

this campaign had the best storyline.people didn't like it becayse it actually made you think about it all those people are fucking retards here is the storyline for you.mason is actually brainwashed to kill JFK but reznov messes it up so he is brainwashed to kill dragovich,stiner,and kravchenko but in the end he still ends up killing JFK and now he is in hiding or captured

[Xdeser1]

I thought it was a really good plot, definatly out of the box for a CoD developer

[UNKNOWNCOMICBEV]

I dont care how many people troll me but i'm just gonna say it i loved the single player its story was what i really loved ablout the game. multiplayer was what i didnt like it was too much like mw2's except for zombies and wager matches. so go ahead and troll me OK!! i can have an opinion!

[mr94hitman]

I want a LONG single player in mw3

[DippersandSmiles]

@mr94hitman I highly doubt that's going to happen.

[Platinum9611]

@Vexens will you go get counseling, telling people to kill themselves cause of a game they like? You are so fucking stupid, not him

[Sirdog33]

I love mayor Quimby

[Robloxkid2]

Will some of you guys Shut Up! Call of Duty Black Ops has got to be the best Fps game of 2010! Multiplayer, Singleplayer, Zombies are what make it great :)

[12martin12rojas]

i beat it in one day and it was a crappy dissapointing game i felt it was a average story but like the visuals

[Ronsta666]

8 - 10 hours? I beat it in 4.

[megamarsvin]

With all these amazing graphics how can they still not make the characters look like people?

[DaredeviIGR]

YOU MOTHERFUCKERS KILLED REZNOV ... NO WONDER WHY PEOPLE RATE YOU WITH C ... Seriously why call of duty developers HAVE to KILL all the GOOD characters ??? Its a fucking war alright but for fuck's sake instead of being realistic there be more realistic IN THE FUCKING GAME

[032498771]

wat was the raiting of this video u ass holes u suck

[maverick7376]

i like singleplayer of this game, but multiplayer sucks!

[MrKdawn]

that was more of a campaign summary than a campaign review

[neozxa]

The single player IS a bit linear, but the story is just amazing.

The ending is a bit disappointing though...

IMO, the ending needs to be more epic.

[Budogenkai]

Where's 'Kiss my Ass'?

[PhatNinjazProduction]

@LiquidxEviL no In Red Faction it's Alec Mason not Alex

[LiquidxEviL]

DO THE DEVELOPERS EVEN REALIZE THAT THEY TOOK THE MAIN CHARACTERS NAME FROM RED FACTION: GUERRILLA. ALEX MASON.............

NOW I WON'T BE ABLE TO STOP THINKING ABOUT DESTROYING EVERYTHING.

[namless2001]

mw2 was way better infinity ward is a way better game maker than treyarch

[domeish]

This is not the best single player. I guarantee you they didn't know how to finish the story, so they gave the character schizophrenia, and said "Fuck it, Shutter island could do it"

[wiersandlines]

@domeish lol, thank you

[MrSolidsnake87]

@domeish funny thats what i felt too

[dravus69]

@domeish Dude shutter Island Closed the Door behind it...He Knew he didnt want to remember what he was so for Him to actually go through with the Lobotomy... that was his freedom...he didn't care anymore...Jeesus what movie did you watch?...lol..sorry dude that movie was brilliant....

[domeish]

@dravus69 No it wasn't? The whole Schizophrenia is such a cop out of the "It was just a dream" plot device. And yes I did see the movie, but I'm saying the entire part where reznov wasn't real could be compared to how the characters in Shutter island weren't real either. I saw the movie. Trust me.

[Flaky80]

Black Ops Singleplayer, kill enemies, push forward, repeat.

Fun..



[grock9000f]

black ops fucks MW2 straight in the ass

[Tylergoth]

@grock9000f I honestly wasnt going to get Black ops due to how bad MW2 was. Glad I changed my mind.

[grock9000f]

@Tylergoth MW2 was good

but mp

ANNOYING

[MisterCaptainDamnit]

Yeah like he said, nothing in the story mode is really that memorable to me.

[franklinsodap0p]

In all honesty, they campaign seemed very....childish.

[helmers09]

The story mode is horrible! Too short even on Veteran!

[soxy45]

this single player is so freaking repetitive! i got to the fourth level and quit. This game is a total copy and paste of COD 4,5, and MW2.  This game is only good for zombies.

[TheseNuts86]

LOL J.F.K. Does sound like Mayor Quimbe from the Simsons. (I would've commented on the game itself, but I've never played it. Don't say it because I already know that I'm a lame) :

[kingheartof]

@TheseNuts86 LOL I said that too XD

[vestibual]

I thought the single player was meh. 

[MCCrleone354]

I disagree with this review in the aspect that the graphics in COD:WAW were better.

[Anon41264]

Call of Duty 2 was the best and none of you fucks have ever even heard of it.

[mnAudio]

Not even sure why they bother creating a singleplayer campign anymore its all the same boring scripted stuff we've all seen before.

I reckon they should sell two copies of the game, a normal priced version with single player/multiplayer, and then a cheaper multiplayer only version.

I don't know anyone who's bought a cod game, apart from maybe cod1 for its single player aspect...

[FalloutMessiah]

It toolk me like 6 to 8 hours to beat but isn't 8 to 10 hours a little long for BO

Killzone 3 toolk me about that same length if not a HAPS shorter

[Vengeance31]

COD black ops is the game that killed the franchise.

[MrSyrupman007]

@Vengeance31 acctually its now mw3 because ive seen mANY PEOPLE SWITCH BACK TO BLAC OPS

[burningjelly4lyfe]

did he just say 8-10 hours? did anyone honestly take that much time to beat it?

[spacepimpkevin]

i dont think its the BEST EVER. i say that MW2 had a funner campain.

but i LOVED the soundtrack with the rolling stone.

[spacepimpkevin]

i dont think its the BEST EVER. i say that MW2 had a better story. my opinion.

[Ghost10006]

Storyline of the past five years of Call of Duty games.

____ is plotting to _____, You must find him before he _______

Then you go on an eight-hour journey of nothing but guns and explosions.

My CoD Review.

[99toyfilms]

this u maybe will need 0:01

[MrMaRyMaS]

They NEEEEEEED to fix the AI. It's ruins al the epicness

[metal9535]

ok what the hell? a game should be judge not counting multi player. thats an add on not a main thing, its not like its as important as story or game play, if the story was good and the game play then give it a good review, if not trash it.

[zion50500]

Gary Oldman is awesome.

[Emperorofthestargate]

i couldnt use machine gun or drive a car motorcycle

[dlakavica]

8 to 10 hours??? I finished it in 3

[bartsimpsonsprank]

@TheGamerTube2011

alright fine ill give you that. but mason THINKS he's dead so he sees the schitzophrenix ghost of woods

[bartsimpsonsprank]

@TheGamerTube2011

dont test me i know the story back and forth. woods dies when krevchenko pulls the grenade pins off his belt and woods tackle him out with window then they blow up. then you see a black figure that looks like woods and his voice saying "everythings ok mason" or somehting like that. thats what i meant. and you see the movie of kennedy before he's assassinated with mason in the crowd with a gun at the very end. so yeah, i know what im talkin about

[cavad]

@bartsimpsonsprank a gun in the end???

[bartsimpsonsprank]

@cavad

look closely

[bartsimpsonsprank]

ok ok since you guys arent getting the story line im about to explain

EXTREME SPOILER ALERT:

when you were in vorkuta, dragovich brainwashed mason so that he would kill kennedy. reznov finds out and reverses it so you kill dragovich, steiner, and krevchenko. reznov dies during the escape and you go schitzophrenic and see him along with the ghost of woods everywhere. then you destroy nova 6 broadcasting station on the boat behind those three guys. final ending, you kill kennedy, not oswald.

[fletchermcjay]

mayor quimby is based on jfk so i think they may have nailed it...

[thebfbc2master]

if you want a story play heavy rain

[dreammaker182]

I lost G4TV more recently... I really miss it! I may have to change services.

[VrtacnikTV]

MY SINGLE PLAYER LAGGS LIKE SHIT!! PLEASE HELP!!!!!

[TheKoekoe]

Black Ops and Modern Warfare 1&2 till eternity!!!

[MW292307]

i love cod black ops

[goofygroova16]

@zamet589551 stupid fag fuck shut up and finish the campaign

[xKalashnikov47x]

"I shouted out, Who killed the Kennedys? When after all

It was you and me" - Sympathy for the Devil, Rolling stones

[lucasre4fan156]

@hoangbv15 honestly the single player was horrible i felt like killing myself mw2 was way better but the story is amazing better than mw2

[LaDoctorCandy]

@hoangbv15 no

[steven4570]

@hoangbv15 the single player is the most mindless thing ive ever played...theres nothing to it. the gameplay is so painfully limiting.

[JoostRevo]

@hoangbv15 Its not the BEST singleplayer ever

[SanJan1337]

@hoangbv15 The story definitely is, the gameplay itself is brainless. Not a bad thing.

[TheShenmoki]

@hoangbv15 no. this. is. the. most. retarded pile of shit game ever. fuck it. i mean, i get where you might like it, it's intense as fuck, there's a bunch of stupid jobs running around with guns, and a badass with AN ACCENT. so stupid. and yes, i've beaten the game

[kdotmj]

@hoangbv15 I think MW2 has a better campaign

[MrKdawn]

@hoangbv15 i don't think so, games that actually focus on the single player have the best single player, games like RDR and GTA IV

[titeface1]

@hoangbv15 your totally right. in my opinion black ops had a more dramatic and diverse and emotional story and better action than mw2. multiplayer............not so much

[iTrollSoDamnHard]

@hoangbv15 This game sucks ass, "best single player ever"? LOL

[Vexens]

@hoangbv15 what the hell is wrong with you?! call of duty requires no thinking to know what is going on. the campaign made no fucking sense at all.

[R3AP3R72]

@hoangbv15 The singleplayer in Black Ops wasn't bad, but it wasn't the best. The best singleplayer game i've played so far is Uncharted 2: Among Thieves.

[hoangbv15]

@R3AP3R72 I didn't really mean it was the best among all games. It's just the games that I've played.

[dravus69]

@R3AP3R72 ty Ill have to check that out...

[R3AP3R72]

@dravus69 Yeah no prob, but it's for PlayStation 3 only just a heads up.



[reject199]

@hoangbv15 He said it won't be a campaign moving forward, but assembling pieces from the past. That does not mean you have to use your brain. I found myself mindlessly shooting just to finish it. Same thing MW2 gave us. Nothing new in BLOPS. Move along.

[levimoreno]

Michael Bay would jizz if he played this. . .

[dreammaker182]

@levimoreno Michael Bay would want to make a live action version! ;-) Of course they would have to tone down some of the gore especially in Vietnam.

[Djstudiosgold]

WHERE WERE YOU BORN?

Kiss mah ass! *zap*

[zamet589551]

1st of all i am a fan of COD.

But this game have The worse single player campaigns. I haven't finish it and Im not planing to.

In COD2,4,5,6 i have played SP for plenty of times.. but this is pure crap.

Short maps, to much of blink blink shit, to much of pointless never ending talks...

If i wanna listen so much talk.. i have TV.

Multiplayer is good. Not BEST like in COD4.

[emporrol1]

ur wrong prototype......... if black ops is better than mw2 then how is halo better than black ops......?

[theprototypeX31]

the answer is clear. Halo>MW2, Black ops>MW2, Halo>Black ops.

[9movierox]

hey! i was born in kiss my ass also! its really great here this time of year.

[SerbSkiLLz00]

people who think this story line was un orignial; what was MW2's storyline? "america is threatened to be taken over by russia, russia attacks america, its up to you to stop this mess."

[lewled4life]

So he was born in kiss my ass?

[destr0lockk]

@lewled4life i guess he was

[georgebaggy]

Campaign was a repetitive and generic mix of cliche psychological thriller and spy novel. The Nova gas and numbers were a ripoff of a great 2002 WWII spy novel called "The Traitor". As usual Infinity Ward carries on the CoD tradition of no originality. Reznov's voice was fucking annoying and he didn't even exist, and Woods the only character who wasn't gay died in the stupidest way possible (in the same level where he yells "YOU CAN'T KILL ME" lmao)

This game blows hard

[demonicforce12]

i was born in kiss my ass to

[ranma763]

This rules halo reach

[jmartinezza]

@ranma763 nah. Halo and MW2 rule this game

[ranma763]

@jmartinezza Pass, Halo's for chumps.

I will half agree with MW2

[TheNorCalGuy]

Wth is this second ending after the credits hes talking about?? Is in not on the wii?

[ELcapalla2]

@TheNorCalGuy *SPOILER ALERT*

The one where Mason shows up in Dallas the day Kennedy got shot.

[carlos98781]

@TheNorCalGuy THe dude was kiding about the second ending you just unlock a new zombie map wich starts with a video

[joehavian]

the campaign in this is so good! best codr campaign. after finishing the game i felt the same way after watching inception. my mind was fucked

[TheDartFart]

What i dont like:

The campaign is in my opinion useless. It only drags the game down the scale. The only mission that was cool was the one where you repel down and kill the enemies with silenced weapons. It's the only mission reminding of Mw2.

I played Cod Bo this morning and im still not bothered to even remember the names of the missions. I dont remember a single one to be honest. Not even my favorite. In Mw2 i remember Cliffhanger, Exodus, Just like old times, and many more.

Overall: Ripp-Off

[TheDartFart]

@TheDartFart I forgot to add: this is my opinion, so feel free to troll me bout it.

[17921newaccount]

@TheDartFart the mission where you are breaking out of the work camp and when you go back to when reznov found the nova 6 gas with his team are two of the most memorable level in gaming i dont like black ops that much but it is the best campaign in a cod game...cod4 had the best multiplayer..cod5 zombies in der riese was fuckin awesome but mw2 was just a fail in every way

[LightEmUpTv]

...online sucks haha

[batista6242]

The story is incredible in this game!!!

[Xxguitardude96xX]

@batista6242 multiplayer sucks dick though

[GrubRising13]

@batista6242 Espacially at the end...

[kris10ish]

i got call of duty bo for xmas i got 7 games for xmas and i have 4 games im playing lolz lucky ur mind keeps files of memory :) i might start a bit of sp tonight and mp wenn i get gold or enter my code

[ssbbk1ng]

mayor quimby was based of JFK...

[kris10ish]

@ssbbk1ng no shit lolz 

[Andreaspaw]

@ssbbk1ng No shit.

[Snitzky666]

50-60 dollars is a rip off. Have not played MP but i thought single player (PC) sucked. I dont see what all the hype is about these cod games.

[Porkins96]

@Snitzky666 its all about the MP duh

[Andreaspaw]

@Porkins96 The singleplayer is best.

[34LOLWTF]

@Snitzky666 cod doesnt pay attention to story since mw2 mw2 had a good story one of my favorite in the cod series but black ops isnt terrible but it isnt as good as mw the multiplayer on the other hand is better

[mandwithmadness]

@34LOLWTF i personally think black ops`s campaign was the best in the story yet, its clever the way it weaves plot lines and conspiracy theaories in history together and has lots of interesting twists, mw2`s singlerplayer was an ok concept but it was kinda hard to foillow with all the uneccessary metaphors and bad between mission design.

[izxr]

8 to 10 hours my ass you can beat that game easily in 4 to 6 hours

[supergeek46]

"Where were you born?" "Kiss my ass!" That part made me laugh

[ChuckNorris924]

How would i use Toyota Technology ? To Cancel the fucking ads.

[scaredlife123]

@ChuckNorris924 I SIDE WITH CHUCK NORRIS!!!!!!!!!!1

[quanboy24]

2 endings???

[matt10897]

BFC2>COD:BO

[Apa7696]

lol deep doo doo! So oldschool!

[Tsukaruu]

lol "where were you born?" "KISS MY ASS!!!!!" I couldnt stop laughing

[jmig3]

@Tsukaruu Me too lol

[DoubleBassBeethoven]

I like the part where the russians keep a minigun in a labor camp and you kill thier whole army with it on foot

[grant93321]

the campaign most likely did not really happen its just what could have happened during the cold war.

[Enysvar]

thumbs up if you think bc2 is better

[gamemaster123abc]

@Enysvar lol only 2 people agree

[Quagile]

@Enysvar that and halo reach

[Lyridsreign]

@Enysvar Really the COD series has lost so much of its talent that even Barbies Island Adventures is better than this crap

[XReaper84]

@Lyridsreign oh look, brainless hater who has never touched a new CoD game. Why am I not surprised?

[Lyridsreign]

@XReaper84 actually brainless idiot who doesn't know shit about me. I've played all the CoDs even MW2 and I bought Black Ops to see if it was any good and I wasn't suprised that it was worse than MW2

[clanBcO]

That wasn't a review that was a fucking summary of the plot and story WTF

[GSPatton89]

Vote Quimby

[Edbrad]

I feel like Im playing the game watching Toby Turner's game commentary :)

[VenomXR5]

two endings???? what?...

[warionack25]

@VenomXR5 they are dumbasses. it's where you play zombies. just like world at war. the camapign really happened.

[VenomXR5]

@warionack25 oh, adam sessler is a retard then lol

[izxr]

@VenomXR5 I think hes talking about the part when your watching the presedent osama binladen and those other people and then the zombies at least thats what i think hes talking about

[kyuubinarutox1]

it would be funny if he would have said the ugly american line SUCK MY BALLS!

[LessthanJake14]

"Kennedy sounds like Mayor Quimby"

I WONDER WHO MAYOR QUIMBY WAS MODELLED AS?! HMMMMMMM...

[2legit2quitification]

is the other ending the intro to pentagon zombies with jfk castro nixon and mcnamara?

[Godzillabug1]

the campaign reminded me of 'live free or die hard.' just insane, epic, over the top action.

[xxKILLERKHxx]

guyz when i want to play on the multi player or the zombie it says that its not avablie

[TheLastSliceOfPie]

mayor quimby was based off of jfk so..

[Iloveyoumor]

SPOILER!

Was he talking about the zombie thing with JFK after the credits? i dont think that affected the ending? is that what hes talking about?

[faggathonEX]

@Iloveyoumor thats not a spoiler...

[halomademepoor]

song at 1:57?

[SonOfTerra92]

the weapons are indeed vintage ,,

[xFATxETHIOPIANx]

Thumbs up if you give Panda Bears black eyes

[BlackIrishman100]

Yeah lots of people are telling me black ops sucks. But I might buy it for the single player

[ManicRipper]

@BlackIrishman100 No matter how bad the multiplayer sucks, its still better then MW2

[BlackIrishman100]

@ManicRipper well the, it's worth giving a shot then right? :P

[astrologio]

this was the BEST CAMPAIGN OUT OF THE COD SERIES! THE BEST. 

[davylindhout]

he's so right about JFK, that he sounds like major quimby

[rxtty123]

fuk this

[moksheebs]

i was grateful i bought MW2 not Bl-Ops.

people are sayin that Bl-Ops suck more.

[insertnamehere001]

@moksheebs thats bacause they're noobs

[moksheebs]

@insertnamehere001 at least we have a pres that sounds like major quimby...

tried this game. now certainly playing this until MW3.
