  • got both, but got black ops for the xbox. just played another mission before uploading the pics, it is pretty good, but i'm finding it a lot harder than mw2, a lot easier to die in it. but there are some not bad weapons. not sure about the storyline yet though. Its just your character (mason) getting interrogated and basically 'reliving' the missions

    edit: not played zombies yet

  • How long is the single player on this? I have a strict budget of £120 for 3 games (Already used some to buy Fallout NV) and multiplayer over xbox live isn't really an option for me as the server lag I have makes it unplayable. If it's only a 5-6 hour effort I will pass

    Indeed, but coatbridge said he can't be doing with the server lag.. lol, can't say I blame him, if MW2 is anything to go by, I just hope Black Ops won't migrate the host every 2 minutes.. :evil:

    Looks good though, I'm looking forward to having a crack with the crossbow :D
  • For Zombies I can watch the Walking Dead.

    As for server lag I need to connect to xbox live servers in the states (and when you consider I am currently as far away from the states as you guys in the UK) it means I can't join games with less than 250ms ping... unplayable now (though I remember the good ol' days of team fortress classic on 56k)

    Have you tried setting your location for the actual xbox itself to another region?

    I had problems with gears of war 2 only finding game afters like 10-15 minutes of searching for them, and changed my country to another region and it found games quickly after that. 250ms ping is stupid amounts, but you can set it to search in different regions.

    Raging. It should have been here now but there wasnt anyone in and somehow Game hadnt put a stamp on it, costing me £1.32 and a trip to the postie.

    That, along with the server lag is why I gave up bothering with multiplayer on the Xbox.

    I'll probably stick to Reach, BO looks the same as MW2. Seen leaked zombies footage and its pretty much the same as W@W too. All in all I can see this game being very meh.

    Have done but sadly there seems to be no servers for xbox live in South America (I'd have thought maybe Brazil but no). Down this way if you want to play games on local servers it's PC only (neither of my laptops can ran anything more taxing than football manager). Closest to me at the US ones.

    Just got back in from work and buying food in.

    ben, activision publish all cod games including mw. Its treyarch and infinity ward who are the developers, each one producing a game every two years, next year should be the new infinity ward one. picky, i know :)

    not been able to play it since last night, but cbguy, if you try playing it on veteran you should get a good few hours out of it, alternatively you may need a new tv after the controller goes through the screen.

    will have a go at zombies tonight and let you know how it is

    Ah, are you with military or something? I saw your location, but you must be on duty or something. Either that, or a REALLY expensive international call boy.

    No, he went there to escape the chavs, cause he's a scaredy cat.
    (I can call him a scaredy cat now, because he's dozens of miles away!)
  • I haven't updated my location yet but needless to say I am neither kick ass enough to be in the military (or gay enough to punt my arse for money).


    Homesick wife is the main reason :wink:




    And they have chav types here too... at least I knew most of the arseholes back in Coatbridge. I check on their progress by looking at the local paper online to see who has been stealing what out New Look and Greggs
