Call of Duty: Black Ops

Plot synopsis:
=== Single-player ===
==== Characters and setting ====
Call of Duty: Black Ops takes place during the 1960s in the Cold War, around 20 years after the events of World at War. It focuses on CIA clandestine black operations carried out behind enemy lines. Missions take place in various locations around the globe such as the Ural Mountains, Kazakhstan, Cuba, Hong Kong, Laos, South Vietnam, the Arctic circle and Siberia. The single-player campaign revolves around an experimental chemical weapon codenamed "Nova-6". This weapon is bound to be used by sleeper agents in the United States, who are infused with sequences of numbers, once broadcasts are transmitted from an unknown numbers station.
The main protagonist the player controls is SAD/SOG special forces operative Alex Mason (Sam Worthington). Occasionally CIA paramilitary operations officer Jason Hudson (Ed Harris), and some other characters are playable to progress the story. Alex is often joined by fellow operatives Frank Woods (James C. Burns) and Joseph Bowman (Ice Cube), while Jason teams up with Grigori Weaver (Gene Farber), a Russian-born field operative. Viktor Reznov (Gary Oldman), a key character from the Soviet campaign in World at War, returns along with that game's Russian protagonist Dimitri Petrenko (Boris Kievsky) also making an appearance. Oldman also voices Daniel Clarke, a British scientist assisting in the development of Project Nova. Opposing the CIA are the leaders of Project Nova: former Red Army General Nikita Dragovich (Eamon Hunt), Colonel Lev Kravchenko (Andrew Divoff), and former Nazi scientist Doctor Friedrich Steiner (Mark Bramhall). Black Ops also features several historical figures: during the story Mason meets John F. Kennedy, Robert McNamara, and Fidel Castro.
==== Story ====
On February 25, 1968, SAD operative Alex Mason is strapped to a chair in an interrogation room, bombarded with questions by his unseen captors about the location of a numbers station. Mason then recalls several events, as an attempt to answer their questions.
In 1961, Mason, Woods, and Bowman take part in Operation 40 to assassinate Fidel Castro in Cuba during the Bay of Pigs Invasion. Mason apparently succeeds and stays behind to protect the extraction plane from an oncoming blockade, before being captured by the real Castro, having shot a double. Handed over to General Nikita Dragovich to be held captive at Vorkuta Gulag, Mason befriends inmate and former Red Army soldier Viktor Reznov. Reznov recounts to Mason the identities of their enemies: Dragovich, his right-hand man Lev Kravchenko, and ex-Nazi scientist Friedrich Steiner, who defected to the Soviet Union. In October 1945, Reznov and Dimitri Petrenko were sent to extract Steiner from a Nazi base in the Arctic. However, they were betrayed by Dragovich, who tested Steiner's nerve gas known as "Nova-6" on Petrenko. Reznov was spared the same fate when British Commandos, also interested in acquiring Nova-6, attacked the Soviets. Reznov destroyed the Nova-6 and escaped, only to be captured by the Soviets and sent to Vorkuta. The Soviets later recreated Nova-6 with the help of a British scientist, Daniel Clarke.
Having spent over a year imprisoned, Mason and Reznov spark an uprising to flee the gulag, but only Mason manages to escape. In November 1963, Mason meets with President John F. Kennedy, who authorizes a mission to assassinate Dragovich; Mason briefly envisions aiming a handgun at Kennedy. Mason, Woods, Bowman, and Weaver are dispatched to the Baikonur Cosmodrome to disrupt the Soviet space program and eliminate members of "Ascension", a Soviet program giving sanctuary to Nazi scientists in exchange for their knowledge. The team destroys the Soyuz spacecraft, while Woods apparently kills Dragovich in a car explosion with a commandeered BTR.
In January 1968, Mason's team is sent to Vietnam. After defending Khe Sanh, they recover a dossier on Dragovich from a Russian defector in Hue City during the Tet Offensive. The defector turns out to be none other than Reznov, who joins them as they penetrate Laos to recover a Nova-6 shipment from a downed Soviet plane. They are captured by Viet Cong and Spetznaz infiltrators at the crash site. Bowman is executed, but Woods and Mason hijack an Mi-24 Hind in the confusion and escape, moving on to rescue Reznov from Kravchenko's base. They confront Kravchenko and Woods stabs him, but Kravchenko pulls the pins off of four grenades strapped to himself, forcing Woods to sacrifice himself by pushing both himself and Kravchenko out of a window. In a huge explosion, Mason presumes the two dead.
Meanwhile, Hudson and Weaver interrogate Clarke in Kowloon City. Clarke reveals the location of a hidden facility in Mount Yamantau before being killed by Dragovich's men. Hudson and Weaver move to destroy the facility and receive a transmission from Steiner requesting to meet at Rebirth Island, as Dragovich has begun killing loose ends. Mason and Reznov head there to assassinate Steiner at the same time, succeeding just as Hudson and Weaver arrive. Mason is adamant that Reznov executed Steiner, but Hudson had witnessed Mason carrying out the act alone.
Hudson and Weaver are revealed to be Mason's interrogators. Dragovich has communist sleeper cells placed all over the United States which, when ordered by the numbers broadcast, will release the Nova-6 gas. As a result, the U.S. is preparing a pre-emptive nuclear strike on the Soviet Union, which would result in the inevitable Mutual Assured Destruction of World War III. Hudson needed Steiner to abort the gas launch, but after his death, only Mason has any knowledge of the numbers station. Hudson reveals that Dragovich brainwashed Mason to understand the numbers broadcasts and assassinate Kennedy, effectively making him a Soviet sleeper agent. The real Reznov never escaped, but died during the Vorkuta breakout attempt, and the Soviet defector in Hue was actually killed before Mason reached him. Mason’s visions of Reznov are a result of a dissociative disorder caused by the traumatic brainwashing program. Prior to the Vorkuta uprising, Reznov reprogrammed Mason to assassinate Dragovich, Kravchenko, and Steiner instead. Mason finally remembers the location of the broadcast station: a Russian cargo ship called Rusalka off the coast of Cuba. An assault on the Rusalka begins, with Mason and Hudson infiltrating the underwater submarine base protecting the ship. Hudson calls in the United States Navy to destroy the Rusalka. Mason and Hudson finally confront Dragovich in the lower levels of the facility, and Mason strangles and drowns him to death before escaping with Hudson. They regroup with Weaver, who declares victory.
Archive footage of President Kennedy prior to his assassination is shown, revealing Mason was among onlookers who watched Kennedy disembark from Air Force One at Love Field. His presence, and Dragovich's taunt before his death, suggest that Mason may have carried out his initial programming. A hidden message that can be accessed in the game's main menu reveals that Woods survived the confrontation with Kravchenko and is currently incarcerated in the Hanoi Hilton.
=== Zombies ===
==== Characters and settings ====
The Zombies story takes place over various eras of time, mostly during the final year of World War II, and the 1960s. The story mainly follows four soldiers: Corporal "Tank" Dempsey (Steven Blum) of the United States Marine Corps, Sergeant Nikolai Belinski (Fred Tatasciore) of the Red Army, Captain Takeo Masaki (Tom Kane) of the Imperial Japanese Army, and Doctor Edward Richtofen (Nolan North) of the Wehrmacht. Other characters include Doctor Ludvig Maxis (Fred Tatasciore) and his daughter Samantha (Julie Nathanson). The map "Five" features historical figures: John F. Kennedy (Jim Meskimen), Robert McNamara (Robert Picardo), Richard Nixon (Dave Mallow), and Fidel Castro (Marlon Correa). "Call of the Dead" features the appearance of celebrities: Sarah Michelle Gellar, Robert Englund, Danny Trejo, Michael Rooker, and George A. Romero, all playing themselves.
==== Story ====
During World War II, Doctor Ludvig Maxis formed Group 935, a group of scientists that was intended to improve the human condition. Lacking funds, they soon turned to creating weapons to aid the Nazis. Their discovery of Element 115 from a meteorite in Japan lead to the creation of zombies. Maxis and his assistant, Dr. Edward Richtofen, also work on other projects, leading to the creation of teleportation devices and 115-powered weapons. Attempting to use himself as a test subject, Richtofen accidentally teleports to a catacomb within the moon, where he comes into contact with a mysterious pyramid device that causes him to hear mysterious voices, slowly taking away his sanity. He is later teleported to an exotic jungle known as Shangri-La, where he spends three weeks studying the Vril energy force. Upon returning to Germany, Richtofen secretly forms a plan to kill Maxis, and gathers many members of Group 935 to build a moon base, known as Griffin Station. While maintaining his cover with Maxis and the rest of Group 935, Richtofen manages to capture three soldiers: Tank Dempsey, Nikolai Belinski, and Takeo Masaki; he begins to conduct experiments with Element 115, causing memory loss for all three soldiers.
Maxis continues his work on other experiments, attempting to use his daughter's dog, Fluffy, as a test subject for his own teleportation device. However, the experiment fails, and Fluffy is transformed into an undead hellhound. Richtofen takes the opportunity and traps Maxis and his daughter Samantha inside the teleporter with Fluffy, believing that they would die. Richtofen escapes with his three captured soldiers, and arrives at the Rising Sun research facility in Japan, where Element 115 was first discovered. After gathering a sample of 115 at the site, and recovering a weapon known as the Wunderwaffe DG-2, they return to the Der Riese factory in Germany. In an attempt to escape the zombie horde, the group accidentally overloads a teleporter with the DG-2, sending them forward in time. They arrive at an abandoned Nazi theater in the 1960s, where Richtofen discovers several recordings left behind by Dr. Maxis. Samantha, having survived and managing to control the zombies, continues raising the undead in order to hunt down Richtofen.
Some time in 1963, the United States government manages to grab hold of several of Group 935's inventions, keeping them hidden in the Pentagon. Due to the presence of the undead-raising Element 115, zombies breach the Pentagon. John F. Kennedy, Richard Nixon, Robert McNamara, and Fidel Castro are trapped within the Pentagon, forced to fight their way out. Meanwhile, Richtofen's crew arrive at a Soviet Cosmodrome site, where Richtofen intends to travel to Group 935's moon base, Griffin Station. The crew is contacted by Gersh, a member of the Ascension Group who requests to be freed from Samantha's grip. After freeing Gersh, the four of them are teleported further in time, and arrive at a Siberian lighthouse sometime in 2011, once used by Richtofen as a secret lab. However, they are trapped within a locked room, and forced to rely on four movie actors: Sarah Michelle Gellar, Danny Trejo, Robert Englund, and Michael Rooker, who are filming a zombie movie on-site along with director George A. Romero, who had been infected as well. Richtofen requests the four celebrities to find a golden rod, which is a Vril generator device, which he then uses to fix the teleporter. He transports himself and the other three soldiers back to Shangri-La, leaving the celebrities behind to continue fighting Romero and the horde. At Shangri-La, the group discovers two explorers, Gary and Brock, who died trapped within a time loop while trying to discover the secrets of the mythical Agartha realm. The group saves the explorers' lives by traveling back and forth in time, altering the environments of the temple in the process. They discover an altar within the temple with Richtofen's name written on it, as well as a piece of a meteorite containing Element 115. However, the explorers remain stuck in the never-ending loop.
With the Vril generator and the meteorite piece, Richtofen now believes he can control the zombies, and returns to Griffin Station. Here, they attempt to activate the MPD, a machine that controls the Aether energy, which opens to reveal Samantha inside; instead of dying by Richtofen's trap, Samantha was teleported to the moon while Maxis was sent somewhere else. Samantha accidentally triggered the MPD and was trapped within the device, but this also allowed her to enter the Aether realm. Maxis, who was retrieved by Group 935 scientists, apologized to his daughter and committed suicide in front of her, prompting her to assume control of the zombies and seek vengeance on Richtofen. Richtofen fuses the golden rod and the meteorite piece, and using it to switch souls with Samantha, takes over as the new zombie controller. This causes his former allies to feel betrayed, and they ally themselves with Samantha (who now resides in Richtofen's body). Maxis is revealed to have become a sentient artificial intelligence living within the systems of Griffin Station, and he guides his daughter and the three soldiers to launch three missiles at the Earth. This severs Richtofen's link with the Aether, but the launch results in the catastrophic destruction of the Earth, while still leaving Richtofen in control of the undead.

Review:
An awesome game.Singleplayer campaign is very fun and interesting,but it's not a COD style and that's probably why so many people don't like it.In my opinion every Call Of Duty had a good story,especially first MW and it was always a good thing,of course.But this time they overdid it.In FPS,story should be there just so that the game doesn't get boring,but here you spend 50% of the time watching scripted events without actually participating.There are two whole missions where you don't even draw a weapon of any kind.Don't get me wrong,like I said,the whole campaign is great,but it just doesn't feel like COD.Story has MUCH bigger role than in any of previous games and there are a lot more scripted events.Multiplayer is well-balanced,one of the best so far,but there are lot of technical issues which will hopefully be corrected by future patches.And finally,it's one hell of a game that took COD franchise in totally new direction.Good or bad,it's up to you to decide.P.S. Forgive me if I made grammar mistakes,my English isn't exactly perfect..
The things that I didn't like in the game, mostly are the disorienting environments, and the need of the player to be rapid in certain objectives, as some new players may get frustrated at this.
Another bad element of the game is the "auto-pilot", in which the game basically prompts you to do something, and even if you don't actually do it, it still does it by itself, leaving you think that you did it yourself.Multiplayer - 9 The Multiplayer component has a lot of things too, like the other Call of Duty games.
Combat Training, which uses a separate leveling system, features bots versus you, but it still needs an online connection to operate.Zombies - 8,5 Zombies are good once again, also there are again a lot of clues to discover about the back-story.
It's disappointing to see co-op campaign not being here, as it was very fun to play campaign with your friends.Final Rating: 8,8 One of the most anticipated games, but it has it's flaws.
Multiplayer introduced enhanced gun customization, and single-player and zombies were fairly good.
Great story, fun gameplay, endless multiplayer, and amazing visuals..
(Kino Der Toten, Five, and Dead Ops Arcade) Kino Der Toten is a fun experience with the same familiar gameplay as Nazi Zombies in World at War that we all know and love.
I have just finished playing Call Of Duty: Black Ops on my XBOX 360 and I am simply blown away.
Let's start off on the campaign, Great story, Great action and since it's a Call Of Duty game that Treyarch made there's going to be two things: Swearing and Gory Violence.
There are some shock moments in Black Ops like an ill-fated game of Russian Roulette, an eye gouging, lots of slit throats, a scene showing Nova 6 destroying Russian soldiers, a violent Battle of Kne San, a grenade stuck onto a Viet Cong Soldier and last but not least the guns.
There are loads of guns to chose from in Black Ops. Like M16's and Ak-47's and there are even ways to spice up the multi-player after the not so good Modern Warfare 2's Multiplayer, with chopper gunners and gunships.
Overall this is the best Call of Duty to date (just beating Call of Duty 4) and has redeemed Call of Duty after the not so good Modern Warfare 2, the God-Awful Modern Warfare 3 and the OK Black Ops 2,this is the golden boy.
So if you want entertainment from a gory first person shooter that is fun to play and overall brilliance flowing from it get Call of Duty Black Ops..
anyways im gonna review the game in 3 parts:Singleplayer: 9,2 Very much fun, the characters are wonderful, the length is decent, i think Black Ops has the best CoD campaign ever, but Sam Worthington's bad voice acting, glitches ( especially the knife ) and lack of checkpoints are what they could have fixed.Multiplayer: 6,5 The multiplayer in black ops is the worst of any CoD game.
Had they worked on it a little more, it might have been better.Zombies: 9,6 Zombie mode is the best thing about this game, you can play with friends which is tons of fun and it's better than special ops from MW2, spec ops was really fun, but zombies is better.Overall rating: 7if you never play online in games, then get this game, single-player and zombie mode is really fun, but the multiplayer is just frustrating and awful..
COD Black Ops was and is fun.The perks are better, the guns are better, and just about everything else is better.The one major letdown was the graphic quality.The graphics were horrible compared to MW2.
However i wanted to review the online aspect.I've been having a blast online on the xbox and personally i don't think the game play is as good as it was on MW2.The customisation features are great, also like the wager matches and the numerous types of online games there are.Where i find the game falls down are - The guns have such a massive distinction from each other - The Ak74u is far to good imo.
Obviously a difference between weapons is required but there's taking it too far some guns are just useless and unfortunately they're the ones you start with.The maps are too small there's people everywhere you can spawn and be shot straight away, sometimes you cant even move without being shot, most games you end up with 20 plus kills, and for me a whole lot more deaths lol.A lot of the maps seem to be centred around an area which has nothing in it, you go into that area and get shot from every single direction, i don't see the point.I felt with MW2 if you played tactically, sneaking around, camping when necessary and playing as "dare i say it" it was real, you could do really well it was more of a tactical game.
I have just finished playing CALL OF DUTY BLACK OPS..
awesome game..You can live the moment spent in a war, see how it feels when you are surrounded by the enemy behind enemy lines and feel what its like when you are in the middle of bullets shoot from every where...In that you can also see the mental state of a person, how he changed from a war hero into an assassin..
This game has it all; an completely riveting story in Campaign mode, an amazing multi-player option and the amazing addition of Zombies Mode.To start, playing through Black Ops' Single Player mode was like being slammed into a movie directed by Stephen Spielberg and David Fincher; gripping story, great plot twists and incredible action.
You will be hooked into the storyline as soon as you take control of main protagonist Alex Mason, who is trapped in an interrogation room, reliving flashbacks of his past missions until reaching the incredible climax of the game.The Call of Duty series has prided itself on it's Multi-player portion of the game.
This game has some great maps, weapons, perks and new customization options for your character to boot.
Another good feature it has added, is the ability to play 2 Player Split Screen on Xbox Live, much like in the Gears of War Series.
This is a great game mode for someone who is inexperienced when it comes to playing Call of Duty against other players online, hence the 'Training' part of the title.Finally, another great addition to Call of Duty: Black Ops, is the Zombie Mode.
This game mode makes its return from Call of Duty: World at War. It was a huge fan favourite of the game and many people will argue and say it was the only enjoyable part of World at War. Either way, it is a wonderful addition to Black Ops. You can play it Solo or with another player in Co-operative mode, in 2 different levels (so far).
Zombie mode is great if you don't have Xbox Live or don't feel like player Campaign.
Since this game was developed by Treyarch, who made Call of Duty: World at War and but not the Modern Warfare games, it will have a different feel to the game.
Some will find this a con to the game, others will see it as a pro.Looking at it in a positive way, Call of Duty: Black Ops is the best of the series thus far.
Give the game a chance, learn to adapt to the different feel of the game, and you will love Black Ops until the next Call of Duty title is released.Overall Score: 9.6 / 10.
Though this game is definitely all good and fun to play, I'm still disappointed with it.
I see it actually as a step down from the previous Call of Duty series entry; "Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2".This just wasn't a game that I wanted to keep playing constantly and was anxious about seeing what would happen next with the story.
Perhaps it was because I really wasn't interest or following the story for the first half of the game because I simply wanted to shoot and blow up stuff, in some nice looking environments.
Besides, the story itself is being quite silly once you start analyzing it too thoroughly.Throughout the game you are playing multiple characters, during several different time periods and different continents.
Also the way the levels play out are being pretty formulaic, though I have to say that the game gets insanely difficult to play at times.
At times the sound effects are being louder than the voices and occasionally there would appear a pop-up on the screen for literally about 2 seconds that say what you HAVE TO do, while I'm still being busy running for cover and just playing the game.I hope I'm not sounding too bitter about this game, since it's still a good one and also one I enjoyed playing for most part but it just isn't anything too new or original to play.
Sure there are times when it's restrictive and it forces you to reach an objective in a very specific way, but the pretty scenery, availability of cool weapons, and ability to drive or fly some cool attack vehicles, make this game worthwhile.
Add to this is a cast of fairly well-known actors and you have a fun game that feels like a movie.
Call of Duty Black Ops for the Mac, despite having the feeling of a rail shooter game, is an excellent game with pretty graphics, fun scenarios, and a star-filled cast.
finally i got hold my hands on CALL OF DUTY: Black ops.have been a fan of COD series from a long time.
COD: Black Ops is a fully action packed game with good graphics, good characters and new weapons.
Mason is trapped in a chair by some people trying to reveal some number by using his memory.Pros: Good Graphics.Overall: 8/10Can be played once..
I don't play online, so cannot comment on this element of the game, so here's my summary: Good points: - Graphics - Voice acting (Sam Worthington does a really good job) - Parts of the story are quite interesting (others are boring) Bad points: - Zombies (the only co-operative option) is boring and lacks all the intensity of 'normal' play.
This was a great feature in MW2 and really good fun in both single player and co-operative modeI'm going to sell it straight away and buy MW2 again!.
Black Ops came on the back of MW2 – a fun game but one that had far too much frustration factors in the multiplayer even if the single player was really a very enjoyable action movie.
The story is so-so but it is so fragmented that I never really got into it – it doesn't flow because it jumps all over the place in time and I didn't "feel" for the characters like I did in MW2.
With Black Ops I did feel like I was being pulled along on a rope – and the heavy use of cut-scenes didn't help this either.
The voice cast is good, although in terms of graphics, sound design and everything else, the solo game never gets close to the Modern Warfare games.Fortunately nobody buys these games for the solo game because it is the multiplayer that gives you the time and value for money.
Removing stopping power, removing the nuke, detaching killstreaks from earning you other killstreaks, removing danger close, removing one-man-army, limiting scavenger in terms of restocking explosives, putting shotguns back into primary weapons, reducing the overall power of killstreak rewards, reducing the ridiculous knife lunge etc etc – all has made this game much more balanced and less frustrating to play.
In terms of what they actually brought to the game, the maps are mostly well balanced and, while not thrilling, are good to play on.
The multiplayer graphics are surprisingly weak compared to MW2, as are the sound effects – still good but just not as sharp or clear as I would have liked.
The COD dollars are pretty pointless even if the idea is good – it would be better to use XP and therefore slow levelling up as a sacrifice for getting things.
The zombie mode is fun, even if I have only done it a few times, but I can see the appeal and I did enjoy it.Overall Black Ops is a mixed bag.
The solo game is surprisingly poor, linear and felt a bit like a chore to do (I doubt I will play it again outside of the Kowloon level) but the multiplayer (while not amazing) is refreshingly solid and mostly free of the many frustrating overpowered aspects of MW2.
It is very well balanced and, even if it doesn't look or sound as good as MW2, it does play better and the various additions of theatre, combat training etc make it more interesting – which is important since the online aspects is really what we're all here for..
This is my favorite Call of Duty, have the best zombies mode of all the time and a nice multiplayer and campaign mode..
I really enjoyed playing Call of Duty Black Ops. Story is unique and we need more Call of Duty games with this kind of "time and place".Gameplay differs from any other Call of Duty as anybody can see.
Nothing to say more about it.I see that many players does not like Black Ops because story.
Call of Duty Black Ops has story that plays bigger role than in any other previous and future Call of Duty games.
Better story makes gaming experience way better.
And my gaming experience with Black Ops is way better than in any other Call of Duty.I recommend to everyone to try this game.
Not as good as Modern Warfare 1-2,but still an epic game..
And the best part: the epicness of the game: i said it after finishing Modern Warfare 1 and 2: CoD has some better action scenes than most of today's action movies.
Now MW2 wasn't that bad but the Multiplayer is WAY better on Black Ops, mainly because of the great amount of features that have been added to it which makes the Multiplayer better than MW2!
The campaign is even on both games but what makes black ops better is they brought back some of the great features from WaW.
Without giving away too much of the story, which I personally think is the best in the series, here is the campaign.
But unlike Modern Warfare 2, Black Ops does a wonderful job of cleaning everything up for the finale.The reason most people buy the Call of Duty games is to experience a great multi-player mode.
Ever since Call of Duty 4 the games have been amazing, from insane campaign battles, addictive multi player, and un-dead Nazis it's all been great.
It's a weird mix of their past World War II games and original modern warfare stories.
The leveling, maps, and game play are the same, well with a few exceptions.
Game play has changes too, however none are improvements, weapons like the RC-XD and flame thrower (which is now an attachment) are over powered.
The wager matches are fun, but can only go so far.The high point of the game is the zombies mode.
The final zombie mode is a top down shooter, similar to Gauntlet.In conclusion the game is fun, but has a lot of problem that ultimately stop the game from achieving what it could..
Fortunately the story is very well done and the game play itself was intense.
Now that I've told you how I really feel about that movie, back to Black Ops. The Vietnam levels were very well done and fighting Soviets never gets old.
Call of Duty: Black Ops. I played this game a few years ago and I liked it for it's setting in the 60's.
This is when I think the Call of Duty games started to get a little old l.
Anyway I still think this is the last of the good Call of Duty games so try and give it a play if you want to that is at least..
From the game play to the graphics and the campaign, Black Ops truly delivers a promising experience to whoever plays it.Starting with the campaign, Black Ops tells the story of a man who fights for his country, Alex Mason.
Throughout most of the game, we get to play previous missions that Mason has been through.
The campaign is phenomenal and moving, proving how video game story lines are much better than most movies.
It is truly a great experience you can only feel within a game.Secondly is the multi-player option.
before i said no, because of all the problems, but with them almost all worked out now, it's a fairly good game now......still not as good as call of duty: modern warfare: 2 though.
