Ok, so i started playing black ops last night. The graphics were by far some of the best i've ever seen! I started off by playing some classic Nazi Zombies. Like I said before, the graphics are great, but Nazi Zombies is definitely lacking if you only play with one person. I got immediately pwnd in the fourth or fifth round when I first played it, but I think I've almost got the hang of it now. By the time I was done with Zombies, I had successfully set a personal record of lasting 9 rounds. Not bad for a guy who hasn't played COD for like a year if you ask me.
Next, I moved on to some kind of half multiplayer game mode called Basic Training I think. Essentially, it is the multiplayer from every other Call of Duty game, but rather than playing against real players online, you play against AI Bots. The interesting thing about this game mode, is that in order to fill the teams, the game accesses your X-box Live friends list and selects randomly generated Gamertags to put on each team. However, even though these characters have your friends gts, they are not controlled by that person in real life. I played several rounds of this game mode. By the end of it I had won 9 games and lost 5. I lost the 5 all consecutively, so I like to think I got better as I practiced. BE WARNED! You can rank up in this game type HOWEVER, your rank and unlocked items will NOT be transfered over to actual multiplayer matchmaking! I myself have not played the actual multiplayer game type yet, but I intend to soon.
In addition to Nazi Zombies and Basic Training, I also discovered a hidden game type. If anyone reading this is familiar with the Indi Game, "I made a game with Zombies in it" you will recognize this game mode as a similar style. If you have not heard of or played, "I made a game with Zombies in it", you can download the free trial game from the X-box live marketplace. This mode is more or less Nazi Zombies from a birds eye view. It is extremely addicting, (though not as much as it's counter-part, "i made a game with zombies in it") and will be sure to keep you entertained for a long time. Now, some of you may be asking, "well, how do I unlock it?". Well, it is rather simple. While on the main menu screen where you will receive the option to play campaign, Zombies, or Mulitplayer, repeatedly press the LT and RT buttons. This will cause the character from who's perspective you are viewing the world at the time to break free of the chair he is strapped into, and will allow you to walk about the room in which you are in. Make your way out of the area with the chair and the televisions, and find the Computer sitting on a desk. There should be an option to press X. Do so and you will be brought to a screen from what appears to be an old arcade game. The screen will say, "Insert Coin". Just wait until the game loads, you do not have to do anything here. Once the game loads, you will be given a difficulty option. Choose the one that suits your style of play and skill level, and kill some zombies!
For a more detailed description, please visit www.achievementhunter.com and view the video tutorial by my buddies Geoff and Jack. They should be able to help you out. Also, while you are visiting the Achievement Hunter website, be sure to check out all of their videos, especially the Halo: Reach Fails of the Week. Also, feel free to transfer over to their mother site, www.roosterteeth.com or their sister (or brother or whatever) site, www.redvsblue.com and check out some of their other cool videos and merchandise.
Lastly, I started to play through the Campaign of Black Ops on the "Recruit" difficulty to start out. I warn you in advance, there is a lot of strongly abusive language even in the first level (that's as far as I got), as well as intense blood and gore. This may add to the realism of the game, but you may want to clear the children out of the room before you play. (Reiminator31 that means you too!)
Well that's it for now, thanks for reading, and I'll be back with Part 2 of my Call of Duty Black Ops playthough next time. Peace off everyone!
