Console is just for noobs who cant play without aim assist. Play on PC where people have to have skill to be good not just use the aim assist to help.

Even with aim assist, It's still harder than playing on a PC, in my opinion.

Of course it's harder. It's also harder to control a car with your legs only and shoot a gun using your mouth. Gamepads were never meant to be a form of controlling a 3D FPS.

There are probably people who finds it harder to do those things with their hands, anyway.

Xbox 360 is in fact harder to aim compared to PC a study was done with Battlefield 3 showing PC players are more accurate than Xbox 360 players

yeah i call bs on that, and even then having enemies that are more accurate is harder than having a load of people equally bad as each other -. -

It's a step up from previous CODs. I particularly like all the future tech and interface upgrades they made. The single player story doesn't have the best story (mostly because I didn't enjoy the Black Ops storyline), but there are still some interesting moments.

The multiplayer is great fun. There are a few problems I'm noticing (lots of people using a particular play style for example), but nothing that will stop me playing anytime soon. The Zombie mode is really fleshed out now. It's so much more in depth than Black Ops was. In fact the whole game in general has me some what overwhelmed. There's so much you can do in all three game modes and this justifies paying retail (even though I didn't).

Basically, if you like COD, you'll most likely think Black Ops II is the best yet.

I LOVED the Modern Warfare 2 single player. So much so that it was hard to beat it when it came to Black Ops. Then Black Ops introduced a not so silent protagonist and got all weird with those numbers and shit. I didn't like that, it needed to be more grounded in my opinion.

In my opinion it's the best COD yet and it runs flawlessly on PC. This is from someone who thought MW3 was total shit.

They're not paid directly but you're not going to see an honest review when the page is swamped with advertising for that particular game, advertising that's paying all the bills. If it's not advertising it's early/exclusive access, cover stories, goodie bags, all expenses paid press events etc.

First of all, thank you for making sense. Secondly I have to agree with you, a truly honest review is hard to come by. But I don't believe big shots like IGN and Gamespot miss the mark that often. At the end of the day, every review is an opinion, and every opinion comes from a person or a group of people. A lot of people might agree, a lot of people might disagree, it'll always be like that. Just because someone or several people never agree with a review company doesn't make them corrupt and biased.

I make my own decision about my own experience of a game, and then read a review to see what other's think. You won't truly know what a game is like until you play it yourself.

Remember when Ubisoft banned 1Up from ever attending any Ubisoft event, revoked all access to early copies of their games, etc. because they'd given Assassin's Creed (the first one) a low score ?

My main problem is with gaming journalism is that it's so horribly uncritical, with most websites completely ignoring the lower scale of their scoring system. Take a peek at this:

Recent DVD releases sorted by Metascore
Recent PC releases sorted by Metascore

That's where I feel all the advertising money etc. comes into play - artificially inflated scores for the bigger games, then having to go easier on the smaller titles as a result.

Edit: A nice article on inflated review scores.

I won't go into DVD releases because that's a whole other ball game :P But in terms of PC games I suppose you have a point, the lower numbers are avoided. But when it comes to a mainstream game that has a good financial backing and plenty of experienced people on board, how can it possibly get a surprisingly low score?

It has not had any mod tools released, and therefore there will in all likelihood be no competitive mod released either or at least not any time soon, so in short if you are going to waste money on black ops 2 it doesn't matter which platform you buy it for

you don't know that because you haven't played it. The graphic s are awesome on this game. I have PhysX effects in Black Ops 2, something none of the prior games had( or at least to this extent. I mean have an opinion but don't lie to prove your ignorant hate.

Are you serious? I didn't play the game myself, but nearly everyone says that the SP is even worse then the MP. It's buggy as hell and far too easy and 5 hours of gameplay aren't worth 60 bucks.

I think ypu are the first person I've ever seen saying that the SP in a modern CoD game is better than the MP.

The SP in BO2 is really good this time around. They included 3 different endings which adds some replayability because you have a lot of different choices on how to go about completing certain objectives. It's not going to revolutionize the way we look at FPS titles or anything but at least they're trying to give you your monies worth with their limited amount of time. Zombies is also extremely well done.

I don't know what he's going on about with the MP since BF3 is a pretty different game but fanboys will be fanboys.
