    These are another batch of consistently entertaining maps built on the solid bedrock of sprawling architectural foundations.

    Another highly competent map pack, with no stinkers and a few potential classics - particularly the new Zombies level.

    At this point, before buying the third map pack, you should ask yourself how much Black Ops you're really going to play before Modern Warfare 3 comes out. While Anihilation has it's strong points, ultimately it's the least exciting of the three, and one casual fans can stand to miss out on.

    This is the worst download content released for Black Ops. Escalation and Annihilation are Call of Duty's two last expansions, and they both come from opposing ends of excellence scale.

    The Annihilation map pack for Black Ops has some enjoyable maps, like "Hazard", "Hangar 18" and the new zombie map "Shangri-La", but overall itʼs just another overpriced DLC.

It seems to me like ever since modern warfare 2 came out, the guys who make call of duty have become money greedy bastards. The zombie map is good, but the multiplayer maps are boring. Skip this map pack.… Full Review »
