    Blops

    To begin with, let me just say that Black Ops is in no way, shape or form, a bad game. By all means it's a great game for what it is. Okay.... now that that's over with. Black ops just doesn't grip my attention and hold it for very long. Yes it gives you Zombies/Dead Ops, but it's only fun for a short while.

So all-in-all, It's a pretty solid game. 3 1/2 stars.
