Call of Duty: Black Ops Reviews

Good story & gameplay. But I hate eye-torturing cut scene (however, it has option to skip) and sequence of story-telling is not good... I play it but I don't know why I stay here (in game) and what that I fight for. 7.5/10

Black Ops is a first-person shooter. The player assumes the role of a foot soldier and thus has access to various firearms, of which two can be carried, as well as explosives such as grenades and other equipment to fight enemies. When players are close enough to an enemy, they can perform a melee attack which ensures a one-hit-kill.

A character can be positioned in one of the three stances: standing, crouching, or prone; each affecting the character's rate of movement, accuracy, and stealth. The player can directly dive prone from a standing position. The player can momentarily run faster before getting tired. When the character has taken damage, the screen glows red. Health regenerates by avoiding damage. When the character is within the blast radius of a live grenade, a marker indicates the direction of the grenade, helping the player to either flee or throw it back.
Newly introduced crossbow.

The game features weapons like crossbows (with alternative explosive ammunition), Dragon's Breath rounds and ballistic knives.

Brutality and gore are present, with a dismemberment feature.
