shrugs... i enjoyed cod blops campaign a lot. played through halo reach last week and had to force myself to finish it.
The campaign did not have a single redeeming feature and it's a stretch to even call it a game. It's more like a movie that requires you to press 'F' on occasion. But not a good movie.
Comparing 2 consoles games is relevant how?
They are both consolegames and thus suck.
You're a retard.

I guess I'm glad I enjoyed it, otherwise I'd feel like I wasted $45 bucks.

Just finished the campaign and I must say, it is easily the worst single player campaign I have ever played.

Just so you're not tempted to play it yourself, the big twist at the end is
Mason is Reznov
. I just ruined the entire story for you, so don't bother. Trust me, I did you a favor.

(not strictly accurate, but close enough).

Edit - oh for fucks sake. I thought it was the end, turns out it was just 10 minutes of boring fucking cutscene. This game just drags on and on. Yes, I'm so bored in this game I am neffing while playing.

What's the MP like?
They nerfed C4 so as far as I'm concerned it's terrible. It's a bit too fast for me (generally you survive for like 15 seconds on average) and nade spam is still a huge problem. I can understand why people would like it, but it's not my cup of tea.

So been playing BC2 today again, man its night and day difference in gameplay/graphics/excitement. Really digging the new maps the finally added to BC2.

I really tried to get Black ops, but it was boring as hell, multiplayer is so bland as well as single player. Its pretty bad I started watching a TV show on other monitor in middle of game. rofl

The graphics, i can't believe how mucked up they did them. Going back to Bad Company 2 its refreshing to see proper graphics, and good FPS with it. Not to mention the controls work from the get go and animations of characters are smooth.

Black ops models look like clunky robots walking around, and anytime they change position its like instant. Every time I saw a someone bellyflop to the ground i just laughed. lol

you're either just trolling or you have a problem with your PC. i'm guessing the former.

Most people I know of would agree with him. BC2 is not the disaster you make it out to be.

Ironically, there's a p0ntifex that has been playing on my clan's server the last week or two, I thought it was you but I asked the guy if he was from anandtech and he swore he wasn't.

Anyway, I've found BC2 to be leaps and bounds better than even MW. The hitreg can be frustrating at times, but it was a pain in the ass at times in MW as well. The game dynamic in BC2 is what blows COD away.

Can't say I agree with him either. I personally thought the gameplay in BF BC was tedious and irritating.

COD:BO MP is classic deathmatch style GUNplay (similar to Unreal if you ask me) with less health/more dmg. Fast paced and unrealistic.

If you think for a second that it's suppose to simulate an army/war game then you are clearly confused. The only thing it has in common with that is guns and visuals.

BFBC2 is a completely different style of gameplay.

Both games are very fun and work very well, but if you go into either expecting/wanting it to play like the other then you will be sorely disappointed.

Though I believe there are problems with this game, and thus Im not going to buy it, its hard to take people serious when they turn around and lavish such praise on BC2. I found the controls on BC2 to be horrendous and kept me from buying it. Seems there are a lot of BC2 fanboys on this site who would say a cow turd was the best game ever if it had the Battle Field title affixed to it.

I've beaten it already, so it doesn't bother me - but maybe you should consider that not everyone holds your immensely fucking negative view on every Goddamn thing in existence.
Everything in existence? Hmmm, well if you want to go over my posting history you'll find this is the first game I have disliked in a long while (although I did complain somewhat about Valve screwing TF2 over with their stupid fashion mods).

The simple fact is that this is an objectively bad game. If it is your 'opinion' that the game is not shit, then your opinion is wrong. This is a fact. It cannot be denied.

I, and millions of others, believe the multiplayer is incredibly fun.. I take it we're all wrong?

I'm talking strictly about single player here. I'm not a fan of the MP but it's not objectively bad, just not my cup of tea. Unlike the campaign, which has no redeeming features.

MP is exactly like MW2 except the fact the KS are different and you can Prone =/

its fun and ive hit 50 on PC playing it with 0 issues.

servers I play on are always full and others enjoying it as well.

I dont think it is a "bad" game I do think it could have been better though.

I woulda loved a 2010 graphics update for real PCs. DX10/11 and PC sized textures and much better models..

I do also feel that at this point BC2 is a better game overall.
I like the teamwork the BF formula mandates.
instead of just the blast them fast as you can in MW and BLOPS..
Am I a BF fanboi.. nope.. in fact havent played in over a month in fact..
but I do agree the single player in BLOPS was one of the worst EVER..

then i KNOW you guys are trolling because everything else is just an opinion and opinions are not facts.
"You guys"? I don't speak for anyone but myself. I'm certainly no BF fanboy - BF2 was not very good and apart from that the only BF game I ever played was 1942 until BC2 came out. I just think BC2 is a great game with a pretty good campaign.
