Ships Ahoy - Call of Duty: Black Ops

Activision announces the worldwide launch of Call of Duty: Black Ops, calling Treyarch's new military shooter sequel the most anticipated title of the year. "From the beginning, we focused our entire studio on creating the most immersive Call of Duty experience ever," said Treyarch Studio Head Mark Lamia. "Treyarch wanted to give Call of Duty fans the ultimate entertainment package this year. Black Ops delivers an epic and cinematic single player experience, an incredibly deep multiplayer offering, and endless hours of co-op fun with Zombies." Here's more on the game:
Call of Duty: Black Ops takes players around the globe, behind enemy lines, in the deepest and most intense Call of Duty® experience ever. The title raises the bar for online gameplay with an arsenal of features, including unprecedented player customization fueled by an all-new in-game currency system, new Wager Match gameplay modes, Theater video recording capabilities to capture favorite gameplay experiences, Combat Training and more. The Call of Duty: Black Ops’ launch follows a record-setting number of midnight openings worldwide, as thousands of retail outlets opened their doors at midnight to deliver the first copies.
On related notes, according to gamrFeed Black Ops has already racked up 4.5 million preorders (thanks Digg); Activision's Dan Amrich blogs to report bugs on the Call of Duty: Black Ops Forums (thanks Eurogamer); and Eurogamer has a video of the first 15 minutes of gameplay for those who like that sort of thing.

Address people individually instead of lumping then. When you direct a vague reply at the entire thread it's kind of difficult to figure out who you're talking to or about. If it's some nebulous group of people that you can't even adequately quantify then it invalidates a lot of what you're saying in my opinion.

That's not always possible, is it?

But if you want me to go back and cite all the people that are saying "if you buy this you're sheeple" or "don't buy this game, kodick is just using you" I can. That just doesn't seem like a good use of my time.

Yes, those responding with "you're sheep if you don't like this game" are equally defensive, but they're being put on the defensive by the people calling them sheep for liking this game.



And I disagree - the vitriol for this game eclipses most other games. It tends to be reserved for the games that come from developers people here feel have abandoned them. Again: personal. This is not everyone, but I would have thought that was a given. Clearly many people here are very open about their "meh," but others are acting like buying this game is the end of civilization as we know it.
