    First off, let's talk about value:
    1) You have campaign. I'm not such a fan with campaign since blops2 and I can't say that I will consider story mode at all even in this particular CoD. This does give a feature like WaW that allows you to play Co-op campaign which is nostalgia and great addition that should've been with every CoD game since WaW but failed in its predecessors.

This does give a feature like WaW that allows you to play Co-op campaign which is nostalgia and great addition that should've been with every CoD game since WaW but failed in its predecessors.

    2) Multiplayer - the icing on the cake that I play that seems to be balanced, almost too balanced. The maps are a bit basic making the game almost too simple which make the 3-way map design generic. Sniping from blops2 aim assist is gone making it a diluted game play w/o snipers. Every game lobby you enter will have smgs or ARs, which loses its luster after 2 months of playing this game continuously.

    3) Zombie and arcade zombie: these are additions to the game which makes this game pretty valuable across the board.

    4) innovation: You get the new mode called Free Run. Although there's not a lot going on it it is a step in the right direction as for innovation. It's stepping into boundaries of another game called Mirror's Edge which is something to be excited about. I wish they put more of an effort for this particular mode like Co-op and racing against others as well as shadow AI to see how players above you completed this course.

    I'm surprised at all that people are giving such low credit for this game as it is quite valuable for what they're giving you. Yes, it is quantity over quality, but allowing 4 games in one is still worth the price even when it's dropping substantially.

    Multiplayer:

    This is pretty much the only game mode I play, which says a lot about me, however I have tried all modes before giving this review. The multiplayer isn't as good as previous CoD games like blops2 or MW2. I feel as though this should've been released before AW as well to give people the chance to progress through y-axis movement. If anything this is an upgrade to blops2 with much slower gameplay even with boost movement is involved. The maps feel smaller than any of the basic previous Treyarch maps from blops1, blops2, and WaW. For maps being this small w/boost movements I must say they put things in a pickle.

    The game, again, is balanced. Almost too balanced. Shotguns aren't good anymore making them almost useless when it comes to basic TDM. Even the argus takes real skill for it to be par with the worst smg. Almost all ARs and smgs are relatively close to being the same weapon with minor tweaks like higher rpm, better recoil or more damage. It's like they had a basic semi and gave the gun points for auto, damage, recoil, magazine, and rpm while making different combinations using the same point system just for guns to make their guns.

    Sniping is low tier due to the fact that aim assist is gone. Anyone who still uses sniper rifles in this particular CoD is using pure skill at this point. LMGs feel extremely heavy compared to blops2, but w/perk manipulation that some of the pubstompers have figured out you can use it almost like an AR. But because this game is faster paced for smgs to rule the game using LMG is outclassed in most situations besides modes like Domination and safeguard.

    I'm giving the game higher than 7 because of its value. If it didn't include the extra mode freerun I would've given it just 7 because it would've been a lesser version of blops2. I can't say this game for multiplayer is better than blops2 because of how generic the gameplay feels and the bland feeling that my opponent is either wielding an smg or AR rather than go shotgunning, knifing, sniper rifle or LMG.

    Call of Duty as brought nothing new to the entire genre. First-person shooters haven't innovated at all. This game shows it clearly. Titanfall had it first. Not only that, but the campaign sucks, and the multiplayer is bland. Never have I seen such a putrid mess.

    Coming off of Advanced Warfare, Blops 3 is 3 steps back in the evolution of this series. The campaign while enjoyable, is the standard explosion filled 6 hour circle jerk of kill these things in a linear path towards your objective. The multiplayer is the biggest **** of all though. The exo system in AW was near perfect, you could dodge using one click of the sticks in any direction without needing to use the jump button, the exo system in AW made you feel like you had control, being able to quickly evade bullets and attack back rather than slightly gliding to the left and dying faster than you can say **** And removing exo abilities just limits the amount of options you have to use. The customization was chipped too, in AW there were hundreds of thousands of different armor pieces, from common to elite to legendary, if you wanted a damn clown mask mixed with a samurai chest piece, you could do that, but in BO3, your limited to 9 people, with about 9 head and chest pieces that look ugly if you mix them. That's it. No really that's it. There is a weapon paintshop that no one uses though, so yeah. The specialist weapons are cool, but really just make you wish that they were just scorestreaks, scorestreaks are also ****ed, in AW you could customize your streaks, if you wanted your carepackage to explode if an enemy tried to take it, you could do that, if you wanted the points to carry over if you die, you could do that. Basically in a nutshell, this game limits everything that you do, dynamic maps that change (like the map that is split into 2 parts where halfway through the map you are forced to switch sides) are gone, the gun range is gun, one hit melees are gone. Like i said, 3 steps back.

    Ok this is a review of the multiplayer only since i haven't touched campaign or zombies yet and after playing bo2 its kinda obvious how those two modes are going to be like.
    On to the multiplayer ok first things first match making is not great, takes some time to find matches and people only play dom and tdm. I have had lag issues and its not just my internet its the hosts connection.

    On to the multiplayer ok first things first match making is not great, takes some time to find matches and people only play dom and tdm. I have had lag issues and its not just my internet its the hosts connection. (activision, billion dollar company and no dedicated servers...). Maps are ehh but obviously since there brining back old maps into map packs they gotta make more money. Maps could have better layout but some are ok. Graphics are fine for console no problems here. Guns.... as usual smgs are op, and everything else takes some "skill" to use but smgs are spray and pray (vesper). The specialist are cool but some are obviously better than others but are are playable if you get used to their abilities. Last but not least is the extra content aka customization. You can customize alot of your online charecter and thats really cool, (gun paint, specialist skin, emblem, etc) some stuff you get from micro-trans but its optional of course. This was my first cod since bo2 and it brings back some memories, i still wish it played like old cod and didn't have thrusting and wall running tho. In the end the multiplayer does not deserve a 10 5 or 0. id give at the worst a 6.7 and at best a 7.9.

They made only one map in the game, ONE SINGLE MAP, just to make sure that every body will buy the season pass.

    All bells, no whistles. The art for this game is absolutely stunning, and fun. It makes you excited when you're creating your classes, customizing your specialist, and getting ready to play. But that's where the fun ends. Once you join a game, frustration will quickly ensue. The game play is very inconsistent and you'll find yourself yelling obscenities to at your screen in no time.All bells, no whistles. The art for this game is absolutely stunning, and fun.

The game play is very inconsistent and you'll find yourself yelling obscenities to at your screen in no time. The matchmaking leaves a lot to be desired, and the game lags really bad. Half a second doesn't sound like a lot of time, but when you're in a multiplayer match, it means the world. More times than not, it feels like you're playing half a second behind any other opposing player. You run around a corner, see an opponent, and before you even have a chance to think about what you need to do, you fall down dead.

    Before purchasing this game, keep checking the COD community for positive feedback. The site is currently a bed of negative comments, which Activision and Treyarch are flat out ignoring. Maybe in March 2016 when they roll out the new DLC, things will improve. But as of the time of this review, the game isn't worth it. If you love hours of frustration, and always playing angry...this game is for you. If not, spend your money on something else.

    CoD 3 might not have a great story or characterization but it does one thing right - it's fun. The shooting is solid and there's enough varied content to offer re-playability for a long time. Sure this game lacks in almost all supporting aspects (forgettable story, soundtrack, and graphics could be better) but none of that interfered with gameplay.

    Wonderful game! Multiplayer maps are great, although combine is a bit too popular. Campaign is great too, and zombies is very very fun. Not the best Call of Duty, but is by far the best since Black Ops 2.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Was quite looking forward to this but am quite dissapointed with the campaign, its beautiful graphics but it feels flat and at times feels quite lost. The multiplayer is the same as any other COD.
    This feels like nothing more than a sequel to Modern Warfare 3 and Ghosts. Very difficult for my middle aged eyes to see the enemy's with this graphics. Thoroughly enjoyed Advanced Warfare but really bummed I purchased this game for $60. Luckily I didn't pay for the DLC's.This is the most fun I've had with a COD since 4, I think all of the mixed and negative reviews are unfounded and honestly Meteoritic should require some kind of proof before you can post bile or come **** on something that's "cool to hate."

    I hated this campaign. It made no sense at all and I found myself so annoyed at the story at the halfway point I wanted to cry and chuck a fit but instead I sucked it up and tried to care about the characters at which I failed to do. A total waste of time and effort. (Multiplayer is decent.)

Therefore it is with deep regret that i saw that Black Ops 3 stands among the likes of Ghosts as one of the most boring and stale Call of Duties to date. The campaign has gone from the gorgeous cinematics and memorable characters that COD is known for, to emptionless romps through groups of baddies and a sea of faces who dont bring enough personality for me to even remember their names. I personally hate the nameless customized protagonist, but thats the least of the issues. The 4-D movement that was advertised is absolutely atrocious. Advanced Warfare had much more fluid 4-D movement, and maps that actually compliment these abilities. Your first few online matches will be spent mindlessly trying to jump over walls or wall sprint only to find that these abilities only work in specific areas, making them a major hindrance. Overall, i wanted to like this game, i really truly did. Maybe i can one day, but not today. Expand

    Multiplayer is solid, It's fast paced and handles as expected. Although I feel like the Light Machine Guns are useless, because they are so slow to aim with and since in this multiplayer most of the time tis about how fast you can aim when coming face to face with an enemy. However I really prefer other games when it comes to multiplayer, there are no vehicles and most of the combat is in small levels and close encounters.
