5/5

Call of Duty games are, as I mentioned, about moments, and there're a whole lot of moments, player and developer generated, in this game.

5/5

Still the best military shooter out there and by quite some margin.

GamePro

5/5

Black Ops features a surprisingly competent single-player campaign that features the most cohesive CoD narrative yet.

PCGamer

3/5

The visual dazzle and cinematic set-pieces are let down by bad scripting, glitchy multiplayer and increasingly dull firefights.

ShackNews

5/5

Black Ops looks well-prepared to take, and hold, the title as the best Call of Duty game.

EuroGamer

4/5

The campaign is relentlessly aggressive and spectacular – a Jerry Bruckheimer tribute act stuck in permanent encore.

GamesRadar

5/5

As a complete package with a great story, strong FPS action and a killer multiplayer mode, Black Ops remains unmissable.
