Playing a new Call Of Duty can feel a little like Groundhog Day. Activision banks on it. The increasingly familiar hype campaign is launched, record pre-orders follow, and this year’s update waltzes to the top of the Christmas charts. But Black Ops has an extra importance as the first Treyarch game since the Infinity Ward unpleasantness, and the narrative arc fed to the press is simple: this is going to be the B-team stepping up and knocking it for six. Like all action blockbusters, Black Ops should be a feel-good story.
The video on Black Ops 1 shows some separate rooms, assets, and other features which exist outside of the boundary of the game.
From DownSights: "Black Ops is not Black Ops without Nuketown. Following the tradition of releasing Nuketown for Black Ops games, the new Black Ops Cold War game also offers a revamped Nuketown called Nuketown '84.
Nuketown '84 has the same dimensions and map layout except for the aesthetics. The map's aesthetics have changed to fit the 80s theme, with destroyed buildings and graffiti-filled walls compared to a clean 50s suburban neighborhood seen in Black Ops 1."

...the CoD fanboys are going to be upset.... :D
Personally though, I don't really like on-rails shooters, so a 7 would probably be pretty much what I would grade it.
It's just Activision doing what they do best: they keep rehashing and milking their old ideas in their new games, and the fans love it and lap it up. Sadly.
have failed to live up to the shear awesomeness that was Modern Warfare. The franchise feels milked out to me. Its why i've chosen not to buy Black Ops.
A 7 from Edge is like a 9.
I'm sick of all this sh!t.
A 7 is a 7, a 9 is a 9.
I'm not saying EDGE are better reviewers than others, i'm simply saying that when looking at review scores, take them for what they are, not for what you want them to be.
Well, they say that even the most loyal dogs get upset if you keep feeding the same beef with a different skin. Get it?
