The hype and clamour surrounding the release of Call of Duty: Black Ops has been huge; no surprise really, since its predecessor Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 holds the world record for the most successful entertainment launch in history.Major supermarket and gaming chains opened their stores at midnight especially for the game, fans reportedly queued for over 32 hours, and I'm having quite a bit of trouble getting hold of a copy. See? Huge. But is the game actually any good? Let's take a look at the reviews:The Guardian - 5 stars
Call of Duty: Black Ops quite probably represents the pinnacle of the linear military shooter experience – and you wonder where the sub-genre can go from here. Treyarch's game is exhilarating and beautifully orchestrated, but it feels like a full-stop, it needs to be a full-stop, because toward the end of the campaign, bombardment fatigue begins to set in. As CoD players we have travelled the world, killing people, following orders, hunting down madmen … many of us have had enough.
Daily Mail - 4 stars
Despite the most complicated back story to date, Black Ops represents an incremental advance upon what has gone before, with the multiplayer’s attractions overshadowing the single player’s inadequacies more than ever.
Official Xbox Magazine UK - 9.0
Black Ops could have easily cracked under the enormous pressure to deliver given the unusual circumstances but deliver is exactly what Treyarch has done. When all is said and done, this is the 'proper' Call of Duty fans have been waiting for.
IGN - 8.5/10
Whether extensive customisation options and inspirational multiplayer makes up for the ragged single player portion is sure to be a subject of controversy in the weeks and months ahead. Maybe next time we'll get the full package...
Kokatu - Editor's Choice
This is what video games should be, a confusion of interaction and story-telling, of graphics and camera movement, of play and parable.
Telegraph - 10/10
If Treyarch felt they had something to prove with Call Of Duty: Black Ops, then the developer can give itself a well-deserved pat on the back. They've really hit one out of the park with Black Ops; this COD entry is easily the gold standard for this franchise now. This is a game that will silence any naysayers and beat off any competition.

In one of the greatest team-ups in internet history, video game icons Solid Snake and Ghost were brought together in an epic trilogy known as Modern War Gear Solid. The series was created by a group called the Beat Down Boogie, guerrilla-style filmmakers that had rejected the mainstream ways of the film industry to stay true to themselves and their fans.
Filming is currently under way for the third and final installment in the MWGS series. We got a chance to sit down with Director Micah Moore and Technical Director Rick Burnett, to talk about the the making of the series and the upcoming final film.

Hey again everyone. So, we missed a couple of weeks worth of new releases during our our unexpected hiatus last month, but we’re back again. And to make sure we don’t sprain anything before we’ve warmed up properly, we’re easing back in on a pretty low-key week.
This isn’t to say that there’s nothing good coming out this week, mind you. The slightly delayed port of Zeno Clash hits Xbox Live Arcade, along with the Modern Warfare 2 Stimulus Pack for PC and PS3. You might also want to take note of the PSP port of Fat Princess and the “Team Fortress 2-meets-Old West” shooter, Lead and Gold: Gangs of the Wild West.
Hit the link for the full list.

IW-Gate thickened this morning as a group of 38 people, dubbed the “Infinity Ward Employee Group”, filed suit against publisher Activision in Los Angeles Superior Court, claiming (among other things) breach of contract, violation of California’s Labor Code and more.
To quote G4’s Patrick Klepek (who you may recall originally broke the story that began IW-Gate), “The other shoe has now dropped.” I couldn’t think of a more apt way to put it myself.

Ultra-Realistic Modern Warfare Game Features Awaiting Orders, Repairing Trucks
The Call of Duty madness is happening today. Thousands upon thousands of trillions of people are eschewing important responsibilites and jobs so they can play what may be, the most awesome video game ever.
GameDaily compares it to drinking energy drinks. It has a 96 on Metacritic. It is even being parodied by The Onion, as seen above.
So why am I linking to this? Because I didn't pre-order it and the guy at my local GameStop wouldn't let me buy it before midnight. Now I have to wait. And wait. And wait.

For the first time as far as I can tell, a video game director is leaping straight from the console to celluloid.
From Variety:
Activision Blizzard is generating critical raves and blockbuster sales for "Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2," and the success of the videogame is rubbing off on its director Keith Arem.
Arem will make his feature directing bow on "Frost Road," an action thriller that Cary Brokaw ("Closer," "Angels in America") will produce along with Steven L'Heureux.
Check out the rest, including the film's plot synopsis:
