The only thing I'm really looking forward to in Black Ops is the ability to create your own game modes, which is a feature that isn't mentioned very often.
...You put two sevens on that list. I'm assuming Psychonauts was 6? Awesome list, though. I'm working to fill up my PS2 library, and these really help. :D

" If you've spent a picarat on each of the three regular hints and you're still stumped on a puzzle, you can spent two picarats to unlock a superhint that in most cases basically tells you how to solve the puzzle." Picarat? Or do you mean Hint Coin?
@sTiNatey I played normal mode, and never died, or even got close to dying. The only third person shooter I've played before this was Uncharted, so maybe it's your play style? The difficulty works well with me, anyway...
