Black Ops had some balancing issues, as well as the fact that many awesome things from single player weren't in multiplayer (Dragon Breath Shells, Zipline Crossbow, regular Crossbow bolts, scope for Crossbow, 100% command-able helis, such things). Also the plot was total LUL WHAT material and half of it didn't even make sense. Plus most of the guns were from a completely different era and there were pretty much no missions in Nam (3 doesn't quite cut cut it for a game taking place during the Korean War). When I saw the FAMAS , G11 (which I had an orgasm over at first, my favorite post Vietnam gun), OTs-02 Kiparis, (1991 is a bit far from Nam I think (sure it was designed in the late 70s but thats still a tad late imo)) WA2000, CZ75, and the Valkyrie Missiles and that MiniGun thing from the Terminator.  So ya plenty of issues

Dont bother getting the Gaybox 360 now, I would rather go to Wal-Mart and get a $150 PS3 for 2 reasons;
R1) Its a better investment cause the bundle comes with 2 games IIRC
R2) If you really must get an Xbox then wait for the Xbox 720 to come out, I have heard tell of it making its appearance next year.

1) You are correct. Ps3, special controller IIRC and 2 games. Little big planet 2 special edition and some other werid game. But xbox 360 is $140
2) Are you serious?!?! They're coming out with xbox 720? I thought that was just a joke XD

Nahh its coming soon, they need to compete with the PS3 in hardware. People are beginning to notice the PS3 advanced capabilities and potential (especially newer model ones, I have an original 60 g model with backwards comparability so I have some lag issues and a couple of graphical problems with the particularly newer games but I don't quite care about that much), since most PS3 games use less than 50 % of its graphical potential. Uncharted series uses about 60-70% of the graphical capabilities of a PS3 and that is quite amazing (by comparison Modern Warfare 3 uses about 90% of the Xbox 360's processing power and graphical capabilities). So ya.....

Have the COD games ever have an eye for accuracy when it comes to history and such? I know the ww2 ones have?
 Except world at war where there are Tiger2 wrecks in Stalingrad XD

My English is kind of useless. But that because Iam swedish Wooohoooj! ;3

The big red one was a pretty good game. You get to use Italian weapons, AA gun, and other things of fancy which was fun. And characters have a personality and fight in a group :P.

Yea it was a good game I consider that between CoD 1-3 because it came out before CoD 3 and it was quite literally Treyarch's crowning achievement . I still remember the mission where you lose Brooklyn that made me a sad Panda.

Every team member you lose makes you felt sadder and sadder :'(. I was upset when sargeant hawk left :P

How did you get past the snow level with the dragons teeth and the mgs? I just kept sniping them and then when that ran out I used the m1 garand and any weapons I could find. It was a little ridiculous. The minute you poke your head out u take mg fire  :'(

Uhhh ya cod 1-3 was great 4-8 Lol except 5. But can we talk about RO2 like the topic. RO2 rising storm looks absolutely awesome!!!!!!!! I cant wait to struggle out my transport  boat why my friends are gettin ripped to shreds from type 95 fire! 
This game is balanced in everyway. Every Army has its strengths and weaknesses and you use your strengths to attack the enemy's weakness. If both players know this,than it turns into a game of skill.
