Black Ops

While being one of those sad geeks who went to a shop at midnight to purchase the game it can be said that I had expectations of a good game. While Black Ops is a good FPS, it's nothing new really. Sure there's new maps and some new weapons, but nothing revolutionary. Unfortunately this trend will probably continue until the game stops selling so well and the dev's actually have to do something new to draw in customers rather than relying on the CoD brand itself. While I am disappointed, I can't fault Activision or Treyarch on this, why spend millions of dollars trying to "reinvent the wheel" so to speak when repainting it will save money and sell just as well?
