So hopefully you guys wanting Halo or have Halo liked my last review.
Today I'm going to be reviewing the latest Call
of Duty game brought to us by Treyarch.
So first things
first I'd like to talk about the graphics. Now normally I wouldn't talk
about the graphics first but this game took a massive step up in that
particular area so I'll start there. The graphics are just phenomenal in
every way. You can literally see every last detail that Treyarch put
into the game ans the textures are just amazing! I give massive props to
the development team at Treyarch for doing this. Its so nice to see a
Call of Duty with good graphics!
Next I'd like to talk
about the overall game play experience I have while playing Black Ops 2.
This game just runs so smooth and has a new sensitivity system that we
never saw before. It ranges from 1-14 so it really can grab the in
between sensitivity players and make them a better gamer. But overall
the game play experience is just amazing. I really love the feel of this
game and can play it for hours upon hours.
Now lets
talk about the campaign... its just epic. Really freaking epic! What the
guys at Treyarch did with this campaign was beyond awesome and I mean
that. The campaign isn't one of those Call of Duty campaigns that's all
straight to the point and sort of boring, no, there are a lot of twists
and turns in the campaign that gets you on the edge of your seat. So
without spoiling anything I'm just going to say that there are multiple
ways to play the game. If you do something different in the campaign the
second time around it will effect the storyline which is another thing
that's new to the franchise. But if you're a campaign kind of person
this is definitely the game you want!
ZOMBIES! Everyone
loves zombies right? To be honest the zombies mode on this game is
crazy fun with friends but super freaking hard, compared to the other
zombies, to tackle by yourself. Tranzit really lets you explore the
world and have a blast. Although the Easter Egg in Tranzit isn't all
that interesting or hard... its still pretty fun to do and you get to
find out more stuff on the zombies story. I suggest playing Tranzit with
friends though.... that's my only issue with the zombies mode. But
other than that its amazing!
Time to talk about one of
the main attractions to Call of Duty fans... the multiplayer! The
multiplayer in this game just feels smooth and amazing. Once again going
back to the sensitivity installment it really lets you play the way you
want to. Also the maps are well made and fun to play on... BUT as in
every game that has an overpopulated multiplayer there is always a few
issues that really tick me off. Like the spawns... they are absolutely
horrible at times. You can literally die and spawn back in with a bullet
exiting your head. It gets pretty irritating at times and makes me want
to rip my hair out. But there are some games where the spawns are
perfect... its rather odd. Same thing with the connection. I have one of
the best gaming connections ever and sometimes I catch myself lagging
because of the host. In some cases if you're not the host you have
absolutely no chance winning a gun battle against the host. It gets
crazy sometimes... but I assume Treyarch will fix these issues soon.
Hopefully they do.
Finally we reach the last subject;
being the audio. The audio in this game is outstanding and completely
mind blowing. The guns all sound real and so do the explosions. The
footsteps also sound good on different materials. Also if you're in a
certain area your gun will actually sound like its shooting in a tunnel,
far away distance, etc. The sound effects in this game are amazing...
hands down.
Overall rating: 9/10! Although this game is
outstanding the multiplayer issues really had some effects on the
overall rating. If they weren't there it would most likely be a 9.5 or a
10.
But yeah that's my review on Call of Duty: Black Ops 2. I will do more later and let you
know what I think about the games. Always check here and make sure you

First Game Review: Halo 4!
So I had this game since launch day and decided to make a Blog and write a review on all the latest games. So first off I'd like to review one of my favorite game series Halo!
So with Halo 4 expanding onto the amazing story Bungie gave us 343 Industries really had to step up to the plate with this game. I would like to say that they did an outstanding job, they really did, but its not perfect. Lets start shall we?
The length of the campaign... I feel that 343 didn't put as much time and effort into the campaign as they did Spartan Ops or the Multiplayer. The campaign was very short and basically consisted of doing the same thing over and over again... but at different locations. The story was epic, don't get me wrong, but the things you did while actually playing the game just got repetitive. I ended up beating the campaign on Legendary in five hours. This game wasn't very long at all.
Although the campaign was short the graphics definitely makes up for it. The graphics in this game are outstanding! 343 really did a nice job with their textures and keeping the Halo theme alive. It wasn't as dull as Bungie's Halo Reach and it wasn't all that bright... so basically it was perfect!
Next I'd like to talk about the storyline... although the game didn't follow any of the books it was still interesting and ended up being a really good game. They had multiple paths to take on making this game and it ended up working out. The game actually played out really well and the ending is just phenomenal! I don't want to spoil anything about the campaign at all so I'm just going to stop there but if you're any kind of Halo fan the game is a must have because of the storyline... it may not be that long but it was still a ton of fun!
Now lets talk about the multiplayer! The multiplayer for this game is just epic! The maps were made specifically for multiplayer so they're are well balanced; same with the weapons. The weapons on this game are super balanced. If you're good with the BR or DMR it doesn't matter. You can always win a gun battle if you know how to use the weapon properly. And another key feature of the multiplayer is COMMUNICATION! If you don't have a team then you're not playing Halo right. :P
Also the multiplayer has a pretty easy ranking system. Its basically the same ranking system as the one in Reach except its not Credits that level you up its Experience. After each rank up you unlock something and usually get Spartan Points to unlock weapons, armor abilities, packages, etc. But don't worry you don't unlock Armor that way! You can unlock armor by mastering commendation, leveling up, and by beating the campaign on Legendary! So you don't have to save up anymore for that nice armor. You actually have to earn it.
Next I'd like to talk about Spartan Ops... although its not Firefight its still pretty cool. The first few chapters kind of repeated itself with the same locations each time but the story is still pretty interesting. Spartan Ops is definitely exciting but, in my opinion, not as good as Firefight.
Finally I'd like to talk about the audio. And let me tell you the audio in this game is outstanding! The guns sound so violent and amazing and with a good headset you can literally hear everything and pinpoint your enemies exact location. If they're shooting or moving you can get them. Its pretty sick.
Overall rating: 9.5/10! Almost perfect. :/
