Nope, best by far in my opinion, you're entitled to yours though. Doubt you'll find many who agree.

" Black Ops was better then both MW2 and WAW. I really don't understand some your complaints. The Sam stuff? Yea, he sounded aussie but I was able to look past it. "

I really enjoyed the campaign in Black Ops. The story was interesting (though I'm still not sure how I feel about the twist) and Reznov and Woods were great characters. The CoD 3 campaign is still the worst in the series as far as I'm concerned.

There is absolutely no way any sane person can think the story in COD:MW and COD:MW2 were any beter than in Black Ops. That's like saying "yo, District 9 was a shit ass movie, because it didn't have Will Smiff punching aliens at the white house and destroying alien invaders by infecting the mothership with a virus from an Apple laptop, dawg!". 
 
Everything after the first three COD titles have had retarded stories that can most charitably be called "summer popcorn action film blockbuster blow-'em-ups". Hell, Modern Warfare 2's story didn't even make sense. The plotholes around the whole No Russian thing were enormous.  
 
The story in Black Ops is just as good as the previous two. And just as dumb.

Agreed. Black Ops is easily better than MW2 and Treyarch definitely upped their game from World at War. Plus, Treyarch storylines always seem to make at least a little sense. Infinity Ward's Modern Warfare stories got so convoluted, especially the second one. "

I really liked it.

I enjoyed the Vietnam and WW2 levels, those were pretty fun. On the other hand, I didn't much care for the framing of the story, (Mason's interrogation) the enemy AI, (felt scripted) or Mason's horrible, sometimes Australian-sounding voice acting. 
 
I thought it was quite a bit better than MW2's campaign.

The story was pretty interesting as far as I'm concerned. Nice change of pace to a more Clancy-esque, tighter focus. Every Call of Duty game I've played has been great (granted I've not played CoD3 or the last generation console versions) and I really can't understand anybody's assertion that MW2 was dull. The games are a fun homage to that bombastic style of overblown action and play amazingly. You're right about the AI, some of that stinks, but really the CoD games are well respected and such a financial success for a reason. They're all great fun so long as you don't take them/yourself too seriously.

I enjoyed the setting far more than the modern warfare games.
 
Though i do think the ending was very anti-clamactic. 
 
*magically teleport out of exploding station and swim to the surface from the bottom of the fucking ocean without an oxygen mask*
"WE WIN!"
"omg shipss"

I thought it was pretty rad. MW2's campaign is probably my favorite though.

Wow. And I liked the campaign more than any other CoD campaign...

I kinda 'love' the campaign. For the setting and Reznow and the SOG badasses.
 
Some AI stuff pissed me off (friend and foe AI ignoring each other leading to enemies coming up behind me, even if there are like 10 friendly AI mates covering my back), as well as some hiccups in the 'Player Direction' - such communitcating the need to 'Stab the Napalm Barrels and kick them down the hill' and 'Use the rocketlauncher to shoot down the rocket - stupid!'.

I respectfully disagree. I think that out of the past 4 games it has the best campaign, unlike MW2 it had some sort of plot to link all the ridiculous set pieces together in a coherent narrative and to be honest the gameplay is no better or worse than any of the previous games and at least they threw in some variation with the helicopter and Blackbird levels. However Sam Worthington is the worst. Why of all the 20-30 something actors that could have easily fit that role did they pick him? If they continue with this set of characters I hope they use some of the profits to pay for some acting lessons for him.

This is the first CoD campaign I actually played through to completion. 
 
That is all.

" Call of Duty 3 was easliy the worst. "

Worse then the CoD 3 SP?

Was I the only one, when you came out of the water in the end and see all of the Navy ships and jets, that said "AMERICA!  FUCK YEAH!"

The worst part of the SP was the shaky-camera, I got such a headache that I had to sleep it of..., I tried for 3 days to play it, but I cant finish the damn game due to the shaky camera.... WTF

i fucking loved it

I say MW2 had the worst solo in both terms of gameplay and story.

I think Black Ops is the best of the bunch.  
 
Also, why are people still commenting on this? (Including me). 

A good deal of people seem to forget that the quality of CoD pre-Modern Warfare wasn't all that great. And maybe it's too early to talk, but putting MW2's single-player experience above Black Ops seems crazy to me. I loved MW2, but the campaign just got so weighed down by this wanna-be-deep rhetoric about history that cut off halfway through. And while I do appreciate that they went for quality over quantity, the story just hacked off in the middle and I still don't understand the motives of some of those characters.

I thought Black Ops was the best so far. It had a great story like CoD 4, but had all the action of Modern Warfare 2. Best of both worlds.

I felt the COD4 story was great, that Modern Warfare 2 had lots of explosions on screen all the time without too much of any plot to be seen. 
I liked Black Ops' campaign because it was different, in the way that you don't switch between a couple of people, and instead focus on one guy's story.

@kmg90: "  And they had to use Gary Oldman's annoying  voice TWICE!?" 
 
This already nullifies your argument. Gary Oldman is a great actor.

"BLABLABLA... character, however his story not  so much.
The press <button> to <insert action here> parts were just plain bad....
 

MAJOR PROBLEM

The AI was the worst I've ever seen for BOTH sides of the battlefield, I've been killed so many times following a sqaudmates (like the game instructs you to do) and have a enemies that IGNORES the friendly (that also is IGNORING said enemy)  shoot and kill me instead.  The "flashbacks" were annoying, seriously what a way to break the flow of game-play than to have short unskippble that does absolutely nothing but disrupt said flow.  I love the return of the infinite respawning soldiers and grenades, the Kahn San Level is absolutely a nightmare.  BLABLABLA... 

I saw the title of this thread and immediately thought about that Giant Bomb Thread Name Generator thing.

Yeah, the MW storyline was awesome. Don't know what drugs some of you are on.

" I think MW2 was the worst campaign in the series, but thats just me.  "

Black Ops might have the dumbest single player I've ever played.  Dumb in the same way a summer action movie is dumb.  Not terrible, not even close to good, but a decent way to spend some time.  
 
Although the cut scene after the credits makes playing the campaign worth every second.

Don't you dare insult Gary Oldman.

i feel like the treyarch COD games have too much stuff going on in them. something is always exploding or on fire.
