Default Black Ops- Map pack announced

http://uk.xboxlive.ign.com/articles/114/1140985p1.html

The first map pack is on it's way, well for Xbox 360 anyway, PS3 and PC owners are left waiting.

I know we will all moan about the cost, but I also know I will download it on release day.
At least this time it's 4 original maps and not maps taken from previous games. Looking forward to this anyway.

Will they be using something a little more powerful than an Amiga to do the graphics on this map pack?

I knew the price would be like this, the thing is though, i think Black Ops is going to fail, if you look at something like this list......

Xbox 360 Top LIVE Titles (based on UU’s)
1 Call of Duty: Black Ops
2 Modern Warfare 2
3 Halo: Reach
4 FIFA Soccer 11
5 Assassin's Creed Brotherhood
6 Madden NFL 11

7 GTA IV
8 NBA 2K11
9 Halo 3
10 Call of Duty: WaW
11 Call of Duty 4
12 Fallout: New Vegas
13 Red Dead Redemption
14 Battlefield: Bad Co. 2
15 Gears of War 2
16 Fable III
17 Forza Motorsport 3
18 NHL 11
19 Need for Speed Hot Pursuit
20 FIFA 10



It would appear that a huge proportion of users are still playing/have went back to MW2.

That's not what is reported on the forums, but not as many problems, it has to be said.

It's a shame, 'cos IMO Treyarch make much better games, but they fall over on implementation.

I think MW2 will drop back further in terms of players after Christmas when a lot of people will be getting Blackops as Christmas presents

After going back to MW2 for a few hours I'm glad there's another game out as I wonder how I managed to spend 20 Days playing the last one without snapping the disk.

Out of 45 Deaths:

Death By Gun = 5
Death By MLC Stabbers = 5
Death By Tubers = 35

With all of the patches the only thing left on the xbox is the connection issues which don't affect everyone all of the time.

IIRC MW2 was pretty rubbish in the first few months too....

At least Treyarch listen to the gamers and try and sort things out rather than ignore the problems...

+ Zombies is quality

Treyarch just copied iw, but couldn't even get that right. The lag is a joke compared to mw2
