Call of Duty: Black Ops is a very solitary experience, and considering how much the gaming world has progressed, the fact there is no two-player co-operative mode, or split-screen four-player modes, is both highly surprising and extremely limits the overall experience. With each new topic the interrogator moves on to, players are thrown into the various missions that Mason took part in, ranging from jungle areas in Vietnam, to snow-capped mountainous regions in blizzard conditions, every time trying to escape from behind enemy lines, normally with the aim of taking someone out in the process using whatever limited technology can be found lying around at you and your team's disposal.Īnyone hoping to play through the missions co-operatively, or even jump into some multiplayer action with friends in the comfort of their own home, though, will be somewhat disappointed. Players take control of Alex Mason, an elite Special Forces soldier who is strapped to a chair in a dark room being intensely interrogated by his captor who is desperately trying to extract classified information from him, coaxing Mason in any way possible to obtain new details from the depths of his memory. Rather than merely being yet another bog-standard war effort, developer Treyarch has chosen to focus on an interesting mix of styles, retaining elements of the traditional army-based missions, but basing Call of Duty: Black Ops around the Cold War and the life of an undercover operative working on numerous secret, completely off-the-record objectives, all set against a 1960s conflict-filled backdrop.
