Is BLOPS worth $15?

[Guest]

Twigg is going to be pissed about the Battlefield LE I am sure of it.

I actually like BlackOps better than MW2 and MW3. I think that IW made a mistake by not taking some of the aesthetic changes (specifically making your own emblem and putting it and your clan tag on your weapon) and the ability to customize scope colors in their own game. But, what I liked the most was the leveling/currency system. You still unlocked guns by being promoted, but you immediately had all of the attachments available to you- you just had to buy them. Same with the perks. Why they didn't stay with those changes is beyond me.

I am sure that some of you will disagree with the currency system, but I think a lot will agree with the customization options BlackOps had.

Also, Zombies was a good time as always. If you are going to play that, I think it is definitely worth $15. I would be down for a couple zombie matches if we could get four people on at once, which will be difficult for an older game.

Finished the 1st Dungeon in Skyward Sword. Boss was a bitch and it took me a while to beat him. Hardest 1st boss in any Zelda game I've ever played.

For someone who's only into franchise modes, which game do you guys think is overall better on ps3 -- NBA 2k12 or NHL 12?

[Leftwich]

Just got Uncharted 3. Unfortunately i promised myself even though i played and beat the first two, i'm going to play through them again before i play uncharted 3.

I've read from reviews that people think NBA 2k12 may be the best franchise mode to grace gaming, but look up a review of that before you quote me or anything.

If you skip hunting for treasure and play on Normal, you can beat UC3 in 2 days easy.

The ending is bullshit with all the platforming though.

Just got back from a week of helping my dad move halfway across the country. Ready to start playing Uncharted 3 and the Metal Gear Solid HD Collection.
