    Does it come with the Red-Blue Glasses for 3D play?

    Just got through "Black Ops" I am less than impressed. Seems to me that the developers were more concerned with creating "Gee Whizz!!! in the game than actual game play.

    Haven't played multi player yet hopefully it will be more entertaining than the campaign mode.

    On the upside: The Zombies level is pretty entertaining.

    Thus far the game gets a big thumbs down

    That is unfortunate, not to be rude, but I hope you are wrong because I have really been looking forward to getting this game when it comes out.

    I agree that the campaign was not that good, but co-op and mp is fun/good.

    Well, I thought the SP Campaign was interesting, but really didn't feel like I was in Vietnam at all, for the most part. I would have liked to see more Vietnam Style Action. The actual storyline was engaging and certainly throws you for a loop. I did quite enjoy the WW2 Level in Antartica. Nothing really groundbreaking in the game as in previous versions, but certainly entertaining.

    Have yet to throw myself seriously into the MP - I did take a look at the Classes and quite like the idea of 'buying' weapon upgrades with the points you earn from killing people in MP. It looks like you can even customize your Camo, Reticle color, and even the 1st Perk changes your appearance.

    Once you get past the massive amounts of lag on the PC version for both SP and MP it could have potential to be a good game, but until then, probably not...

    True, the Lag is killer, though apparently they are working on fixing that. How it came to be to start off with is a mystery to me.

    Having explored more of the MP, I quite like it. As you rank up, you gain access to guns, but have to buy the gun. Once you 'buy' an attachment, you can use it on any weapon. Also gain access to customizing your clan-tag image (though cant create your own from scratch). Lots of other cool things too - like the Combat Record, where you can compare stats with your friends.

    SP is patched for me now, so it's actually enjoyable. MP still has a bit of lag, but it's 100% better. Zombies is fun, especially after you beat the game and get to play as the special character. I actually chuckled at the video sequence before.

    'Call of Duty: Black Ops' Sells Record $360 Million in 24 Hours
    The numbers are in, and "Call of Duty: Black Ops" has beaten not only the previous installment in the series and James Cameron's "Avatar," but everything else as well, earning it the title of biggest entertainment launch of all time. The video game sold 5.6 million units, making it a total of $360 million, in its first 24 hours on sale.

    I am a campaign player. X Box. Didn't like this as much as I'd hoped. Tired of waiting for gameplay and having a storyline rammed down my throat. Shut up already and let me blast away, AIGHT? The high speed chases/escapes are just lame. There is some good shiznitz but I'm still disappointed....My 14 yr old kid however hasn't been out of his room for the last week. I enjoy watching him play online. He is a veteran and knows many tricks and good spots. He actually lives for 3-4 minutes.

    Yes, I think running around as Kenedy (Castro, and those 2 other guys) is probably the greatest part of the game. Just the things JFK says while killing zombies made me laugh. Killing Zombies in the Pentagon = Awesome.

    Now, MP will be AMAZING if they fix the lag issue. Fingers crossed.

    Yeah, by in the Pentagon you get to listen to some pretty hillarious commentary from JFK etc. Makes me ROFL every time.
