@AlexKo Okay last try. Half of my comment keeps disappearing for some reason... @Chris: I saw that last night when I read the review. That's why I heart joystiq. So keep it up fellas!

I will say this though; If the individual who is responsible for the Black ops review attended the events, then the integrity of their review is nonexistent. Sorry for the double post.

@TheDarkWayne I said no such thing. I wouldn't be here if I didn't like and frequent joystiq.

I find this to be fairly interesting.

"Gameplanet has been contacted this morning by Activision's local representatives who have informed us that, as a result of our publication of this article, our scheduled interview with Call of Duty: Black Ops' military advisor Hank Keirsey has now been cancelled.

Activision invited select media outlets from around the world to review the latest Call of Duty game at a junket in Santa Monica, Gameplanet has learned.

Journalists from these outlets were accommodated in a hotel at Activision’s expense and we understand that this contingent also participated in an experiential outdoors activity paid for by the publisher.

A similar event was held last year for select reviews of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2.

It is Gameplanet’s belief that such gratuity compromises the integrity of any review and as a result, this publication has never and will never accept such an invitation."

@LaughingTarget I don't think the majority of civilians understand that...

Clean undies and my ettsbotts! Of course every space Marine game aswell, Just so I know how to kick [any] alien ass. Covenant? No worries! Necromorphs? Pfft. Its full of fail. In hindsight this entire post is.

I'm sort of...Inclined to believe them. I'm probably just living in a gumdrop fantasy world, but it is nice to hear from a dev/publisher concerning the beta. Especially when a lot of people were or weren't impressed. Regardless, I enjoyed it. Much more then CODs copy and paste multiplayer. Just my opinion though.

Delicious

I'm going to PAX! ..Hopefully!

I'm soooo sick of these rhythm games. Just my opinion, but I'm sure someone out there agrees with me.
