Quick Look: Call of Duty: Black Ops: Map Pack 2 - Escalation

Looks so cool!

man, if only you could get zombie seperate

Danny Trejo is awesome

zombies are cool but dont care about the rest

I would buy this pack just because my favorite director of all time george romero is in it, but i don't own black ops :(

Rad! It's a little upsetting that the amazing cutscene stuff was "wasted" on a mode I don't like! I'd totally pay money for that on its own as a mini-campaign.

Isn't there some Quake left over in the Source Engine too, or was that just the older Valve stuff like HL1 and TF1?

I'd like to think that there's a little bit of Quake in every game.

S.M.G is still a badass.

And now I have to rewatch Buffy.

ALL OF IT.

This looks so much better from the first pack, but some things look unfinished, like stair railings and fences that look like they've been blocked out to become visually solid, for console performance reasons or maybe? Wonder what team made these maps

Still think zombies only work in L4D style games but this was a nice job on the intro. I like my zombie slaying games with an *end* to work for.

And Quake/UT style with this unlock/level system would be complete crap. They're about having everybody on equal level so that skill, natural and learnt, matters. This is about time = win. At least until you unlock the FAMAS or the AK74u and Steady Aim Pro and become god.

Looks like it's about time to put black ops back in.

GEORGE FUCKING ROMERO.

Wow, a black ops quick look where they talk about "the numbers" unironically without either party saying "TELL ME WHAT THE NUMBERS MEAN"

What kind of attachments to put on a rail gun?? How about more rails.

Agreed with Jeff that the zombie stuff should be just XBLA or a separate disc, didn't really fit too much for me in the game & reminds me too much of Jurassic the Hunted.

Couldn't stop the Benny Hill music running through my mind while Jeff ran the replay at 2x. Would be amusing if the only part of Quake3 engine that they can't loose is if bullet hits player then dead which can never be removed :).

Edit: I'm also agreed with Jeff, wouldn't mind having MW tech making something like Timesplitters.

"Stupid window" I agree, windows suck.

Why is it that Black Ops always look fun in Quick Looks, but when I play it, it becomes a total shitshow?

" Wow, a black ops quick look where they talk about "the numbers" unironically without either party saying "TELL ME WHAT THE NUMBERS MEAN"

That's surprising.

No one can stop the Jeff and Brad Quick Look Train!!

" And now I have to rewatch Buffy. ALL OF IT. "

Huh, forgot how old this engine is. I wonder if they are trying a new engine, although knowing Activision they want to get the most out of this as they can before they even have to try and make new tech. Still looks good though.

A crappy map-pack for a glorified mod, just great.

The constant hate of Zombies mode is baffling.  Call of Duty is already ridiculous, zombies just lets them embrace it.

I will never buy any of these map packs :/

" @528seven: Because Black Ops is a bad game. "

Man, what's up with Zombies this gen?

Lol vertical clearance not high enough for missile.
Also, "Change maps already! What? What are you doing?" Isn't that how all the best players win? Don't even know why they'd want a new maps pack.

I don't understand why or how the GB crew is updating the site so much in the last few days. What the fuck?

Being ridiculous and fun are two entirely different things. "

At least they did something new with zombies.

Brad and his fascination with the tapeworm. Tapeworms used to happen. Now they think our bodies got a little too used to them. Not a tapeworm, but i got worms when I was very young in a foreign country.

I was hoping the zombie section was a mini campaign, but I was thinking too hard. It is what it was. I might find it irritating if Romero was invincible, probably some way to do him?

And more Danny Trejo!

I'm watching the HD stream and it still looks really bad. Not played CoD on consoles since CoD3, does it look this bad while playing or is it just the video feed making every texture look blurry as hell?

I see low res textures... some ugly textures.

So many Brad/Jeff QL's this week.

OMG that enigne is so painfully dated, looks like crap all of it

Jeff's grenade multi-kill was pretty amazing. He's got some skillz when he puts his mind to it. :P

This will totally be the next Call of Duty.

" zombies are cool but dont care about the rest "

At 33:56, I winced as Jeff ran right underneath the guy scoping out the control point and started trying to capture it. It actually took him a long time to get iced though...

Why would anyone buy this?

Brad and Jeff week continues!  Absolutely no complaints with that duo.

Whoa, Sara Michelle Gellar is working? When did that happen?

I've been really enjoying these Brad and Jeff Quick Looks.

I don't have any expectations of MW3 considering MW2 was a big let down. If they took it back to COD4 style instead of making even crazier then I would be excited about it, I would be very excited.

Escalade.
