Coming from my limited experience with shooters on PC, I always feel like I need to grow a third hand to handle all of the keys. I simply dont understand why a game like CoD Black Ops requires something like 17 keys to play while all of those same functions can be mapped to one controller and its all right there.

the problem with PC games is hacking is x10 times more relivent and it takes more skill to use analog sucks when KBM, i play both console and pc and IMHO FPS are more enjoyable on consoles because of those reasons and if you have friends they are most likely to get the game on the console rather than pc. Gaming with a friend>>>gaming by urself.LenGen

As opposed to the countless people rockin turbo controllers on consoles? Nothing better then someone raping people with custom little red button and nothing anyone can do about ti.. Luckly on PC with games with dedicated servers, people can get banned. Your out of luck on consoles unless people are hacking software and sony/microsoft bans their account.

There will be mods to fix that, anytime a 2004 game like Half Life 2 get graphical mods in 2010, with enough dedication the same could happen with Black Ops.

See, this is a good comparison, imagine if Black Ops was treated the same.

Most games are like this. Black Ops actually has great textures for a recent CoD game.

Awful, awful article. Two pages worth of drivel about the single-player campaign.. and hardly anything about the multiplayer.

The game still stutters for many people, and for myself, I need to run the game on almost all low settings to hover around 100 fps. It's ridiculous.

This didn't take Treyarch a couple of days to fix it.. the game is still broken. As far as I'm concerned, the PC is the inferior and red-headed stepchild version of this game. So much for Treyarch being PC developers.

Sounds like it needs a lot of patches.

Well so far...I don't care. The PC version can barly run on my system. I haven't been able to play the PC version at all really. Treyarch really F'ed up the coding on this game...

A lot of people have had a hard time. Hell, my friend with a GTX 460 and a 2.6ghZ dual core is complaining about the performance. I can barley run it myself, but my processor is is old.
