    The game was so overwrought it was almost unbearable. I would give it an 8/10 as well anywhere for the funa ction but adjusted to a 6/10 after multiple glitches made restarting the mission the only way to go onward.

    I found the same in MoH 4. It seemed to lose a lot of "testing you" areas.They are really relying on the past to sell it.I think they need new talent and not a replay of past games.

    cool

    Ahhh, why won't any big name war series invest more effort into their single player? I love single player and couldn't care less about a multilayer which can all be traced back to the counter-strike MOHAH roots. These new only only help reinforce the camping attitude in order to ramp up a killing spree bonus. I guess I'm just too spoiled from TF2. Sorry for the rant but I can't justify spending $60 for a multilayer game which may be outdated by a new game or a map pack in a few months.

    you no this game always looked bad. and fye halo reach is great. number one in sales across all platforms. number one game on xbox live. and this web site is the only one that gave it an eight.

    I'm curious about the final number score. It's not the stamdard complaint that you hear from every other gamer on the planet (this game I haven't played doesn't deserve an 8) but instead it's just that you scored the campaign a 7 and the multiplayer an 8 but somehow the total was an 8. I don't understand how an 8 and a 7 ends up being an 8, it just doesn't make sense to me. I would assume that since it got a 7 and an 8 that the total would be 7.5. Now if you don't use decimal points I guess I could see rounding it up to an 8 but I would think it would make more sense to round it down to 7. Maybe that's just me.

    I'm not saying that I support Modern warfare or anything, but how is this game better than Modern Warfare if it only got an 8?

    K.I.S.S I learned that in journalism to! My only complaint of MoH was the beard. How am i supposed to connect with my characters if he looks like he lives in a cardboard box?

    WTF is with all you guys comparing this game to that shit storm Halo Reach get the fuck over it man

  • BishopofHippo93 - October 14, 2010 2:37 a.m.

    I'm torn. This game was never really high on my list, but as a fan of the franchise, I had high hopes for it. I probably won't get Black Ops, not yet anyway, and for all you fanboys out there: Give it a rest!

  • Cmccormick94 - October 14, 2010 1:44 a.m.

    (Captain Price’s moustache has nothing on these guys) I take offense to that. Otherwise, nice review. This was exactly how I thought it would be: Good, but not great. And if it gives COD haters something to gobbly goop over, more power to them. But if COD is so popular, then they most be doing something right.

  • mikeydo00 - October 13, 2010 10:53 p.m.

    Sorry I can't comprehend english i guess and everyone else just shut the fuck up about this and halo haveing the same score

  • mikeydo00 - October 13, 2010 10:50 p.m.

    TYPO: FIRST SENTENCE UNDER CAMPAIGN!!!!!! SAYS: EVER SHOULD SAY NEVER!!!!

  • Tesiero - October 13, 2010 3:55 p.m.

    I played this game cause it looked awsome and I had high hopes for it But I can honestly say this the game was huge disappointment for me with the MP how can you have a sniper and not be able to go prone the graphics looked awsome but during the MP they seemed like watching a low budget film to me anyway and the server kept crashing with a whopping 9900 pple on not enough guns for my taste movement was wierd as well I traded it in this morning for $22 and while go for black ops I hope this was helpful I guess if you were a huge fan of battlefield this is for you

    It is sad to hear that they did not seem to change much from the beta, I got to play that since I own BC2 and it was fairly underwhelming and it does not sound like they changed my chief problem with the multiplayer. The maps were too small for the BC2 style of fighting that DICE excels at. Considering that BC2 is coming out with new content this winter I cannot think of a reason to get this game.

  • philipshaw - October 13, 2010 12:51 p.m.

    It's disappointing to hear that the single player isn't great, I don't play much multiplayer so I don't think I will pick this up

    How many times did the phrase "Tier 1" appear in this review?

  • juicenpancakes - October 13, 2010 6:30 a.m.

    Is anyone else sick of the stupid ironic and sarcastic Reach comments? It's not a clever joke to say "Oh! So this is the same game as Reach?! And it's two points less than MW2?!" if everyone else is saying it. I guess GR will never again be able to post a review with the comments only pertaining to actual game and review (which I guess might also be idiotic flaming anyway).
