April 2025
Replayed it on PC 10 years after my last walkthrough and it was one of the best singleplayer experiences I had in a while. It wasn't just a nostalgia trip, Black Ops has the best CoD campaign ever. (Also lower the price, fucking rats)

- Great immersive story - Good graphics (Even after 10 years I confirmed it is not outdated) - Fancy game play But I have to say: "The numbers ACTIVATION, what do they mean?" Why are COD games so expensive on steam?

Possibly the best CoD Campaign in the whole series, classic weapons, and none of the over-the-top crap that ruins the more modern games

Still the best call of duty game to date. Man I really wish Activision would just remaster black ops 1 and 2 and release that instead of constantly giving us bad call of duty games each year.

40$ is a crazy high price for a game this old, multiplayer is by far cheat free which is a huge plus, ive found that the zombies playerbase seems to be rather small but it doesnt take a long time to find a squad. overall would reccomend especially if the price drops in the future. Edit: i now have about 66 hours logged on the game and own 3/4 dlc packs, if you buy dlc and queue online zombies you will be waiting a long time to get a full party, more often than not you play 2/4 or 3/4. i highly reccomend joining a bo1 zombies discord and forming a friend group. this game is great and ive made even better friends because of it.
