CoD Black Ops is the biggest let down since Far Cry 2.

The game is awesome, obviously, but I played it for a total of about 6 hours and it killed my PS3. (see the PS3 thread if you care)
Not so sure about awesome. It doesn't seem to have really progressed. The limitation of damage & cockpit driving views is honestly shameful for the amount of time we've had to wait, thus loses many points against Forza 3. Graphically it is no better than Forza & in quite a few places much worse. Lazy updates of old tracks being a big one.
Oh, and don't get me on the loading times. Even with such a huge install (which lies by the way, "3 minutes remaining" it said... it actually lasted 15. The whole install procedure took just over 30 minutes and the track/car load times are still long.
Damn my love of cars.
Would you guys say this game is more realistic than fun?
Think I'll be getting this with my Christmas money.
Victim of overhype? Maybe.
They really didn't help theirselves by taking about 4/5 years to release it...and tbh it's not that different from it's PS2 counterparts.
OK so here's another problem I have found with the game...
you need to buy utterly shit cars (eg. Toyota Yaris) to complete certain events, but by the time you've bought it & won it, you end up with less money so it's a pain in the tits!
I'm at a stage now where the only events I can do are the Special events or B events because I just bought an Audi R8 and have done all of the races possible without having to buy a Japanese car from the 70's etc.
Well you've cleary never played a GT game in your life.
Do you expect to drive your Audi R8 in the Yaris cup???
This has always been a part of Gran Turismo, and it's a way of getting the players not to just choose one super car and play through the whole game, which would be incredibly boring. I can't wait to play this game when I get it for christmas, and one of the things you called a 'problem' is one of these very reasons!
