The campaign was interesting from start to finish with one of the best stories in the series, the multiplayer was fun with many great maps and weapons, and I've sunk hundreds of hours into the zombies mode, which is definitely my favorite iteration of the mode in all of its appearances. It's one of the best FPS games I've ever played, and while it's a few generations back these days, I still recommend it.… Expand

    Probably the best Call Of Duty game I've ever played. It feels linked to a story and actually gives good missions in the campaign, unlike the newer COD's, this game was actually very detailed and thought was present in the game. If I had to complain however, I would say that the movements feel a bit jittery and kind of difficult to use but other than that, I see no problem with the game (for now).

    A good fps shooter with a great campain and a fantastic multiplayer mode and zombie mode is aged very well but on PS3 there no player anymore thats so sad but its still a 2010 game that it is very cool for his years

    I can't believe people actually think this game is a step down from Modern Warfare 2. I believe numbers talk a lot already :d

    But anyway; the story, gunplay, cinematics, graphics, sounds and music is awesome. In my opinion plot twist is the best one for the entire Call of Duty series (ofc which was released on PS3).

    Looking back its probably the best Call of Duty overall, the story mode was fantastic, the multiplayer was excellent and the Zombie mode is Iconic.

    Back when COD was still brilliant. Even the single player missions are fun. But the multiplayer (couch and online) is among the best shooter gameplay to date. Overall rating: 8.6.

    I mean it's no BO2 but it's still solid, although I think this game looks a bit ugly and it can even be hard to see your enemies at times, pretty fun though.

    Black Ops doesn't quite live up to the hype in all aspects, that's only because it was ridiculously overhyped. It certainly lives up to the promise of a improved and enhanced sequel to World at War.
    Although me and i’m sure a lot of others have a lot of good memories playing this game.

    Love Black Ops. The story is great, the gameplay is great, zombies are so cool (115 is such a banger of a song). The multiplayer was fun, though not as good as Black Ops 2 imo. Nuketown is a classic.

    The story lost me on this one for my tiny little kid brain at the time, but looking back on it, it was quite interesting. Multiplayer was fun like in MW2 but what really made me love this game was the zombies. The feeling of **** my pants and killing zombies as a kid was amazing.

    9/10. From the menu, the playable menu, the game is pretty close to a masterpiece. Gameplay, Music, Environments, Characters, Writing, Voice-Acting, Cinematics. Excellent Campaign. Amazing Zombies. Great Multiplayer.

It has fun and interesting characters AMAZING graphics and overall is pretty well thought out. My only flaw is the reduced movement and clunkiness of the movement compared to the MW series which had much better movement and the lack of unique missions. Pretty much the only unique mission we got was the spy plane where you used your radars to help a group through a russian military base. There were a couple helicopter fights, chases etc. but nothing like the MW series. The helicopter fights were a pain. The helicopters were hard to move, had no altitude controls, and no guided rockets. I also didnt like the fact the whole game except the last two missions were all just Mason thinking in his head and not real or currently happening. It ruins this whole sense of urgency cause you know that in the end everything will be fine cause this is only his memories. But the rest of the game was so good it would be a dishonour to give it less than a 9/10.… Expand

    This was my first Call of Duty game, and I thoroughly enjoyed every part of it - campaign, zombies, multiplayer, private matches with friends, etc...

    The only other COD I've enjoyed nearly as much is MW2, which I went back and tried after this came out.

    Amazing story and a very good multi-player. Not as good as it's later game bo2 but the story is significantly better than the next one which edges this one out by a fairly wide margin

    A great overall game. Definitely needs a remaster, specifically with how outdated it looked graphically for a game from 2010.

    Call of Duty: Black Ops still represents one hell of a hefty package. It's bursting with hundreds of hours of entertainment that caters to every conceivable configuration of gamer out there, be they an adversarial gamer, a co-op connoisseur or a staunch offline soloist. [January 2011 p60]

    By dint of obstinacy, Treyarch delivers probably its best with Black Ops Call of Duty to date - but probably not the best in the saga.

    There are more highlights in the first two missions of Black Ops, then in Medal of Honor. The requirements of Treyarch seemed to be better, than in the past few years. They made an interesting setting. In addition, there's a nice zombie mode and an overwhelming multiplayer. No doubt, this is Treyarchs best Call of Duty ever!
