I thought this was Giantbomb, not some NeoGAF/Gamefaqs refuge. :(

I really hope when I play this game, it doesn't remind me of any previous Treyarch game in terms of how it feels.
 
Cause this looks fucking awesome so far. And they're treating us PC players mostly right. So yeah, I'ma buy dat.

My favorite part was when 2 players ran into the room and both got gunned down in no time with wild SMG spray.  Looks like i'm staying miles away from this one.

Cool customization, doesn't change the fact that the last hugely hyped game in the series ruined how  felt about the series as a whole... 
 
Well, at least Treyarch makes the good games. With Halo: Reach and Black Ops this year, its gonna be an amazing holiday.

Have you ever tried to calm down a Gun Pony?? Don't even think about it. Gun Pony just goes "Fuck you!" and shoots you in the face with his gun hoof.
There's nothing calm about Gun Pony.

Maybe it'll solve some problems, like, how am I supposed to earn experience with the Ak-47 when it's earned on the last level anyway?

I don't know why I really don't care much for Black Ops. Maybe my opinion will change when I play it.

This looks pretty damn good to me.  I'm not sure if it will be a day one purchase, but certainly something to consider if its the only viable FPS on the market with the exception of Reach.  MOH is still an unknown quantity.

I wonder if you have actual specific customization. All I see (apart from the weapon customization) is facepaint. It seems that the appearance of the character is changed based on the perks.

Fuck the haters. This game has bot support and character customization. That's all I ask out of my FPS game besides a level editor of some kind. (TimeSplitters!)  
Two out of three features I always look for? Sounds like a purchase, at least at the local pawn shop.

When I first heard about MW2 and all the commotion about the game -- especially for us PC gamers. I knew I wasn't gonna purchase that game. But Black Ops? Dude! I'm fucking psyched for this release!
