Of course you can.

You play multiplayer. You don't replay it. Replay to me suggests that when you've finished the game, you want to go back and play it again. You never really finish multiplayer. Certainly not in a FPS.

Anyway, the question remains, will the single player campaign be any longer than MW2?

You don't define that word by being pedantic. Replay value denotes how many times you'll return to the game and MP makes people return very, very often thus it has a high replay value.

ummmm essentially in multiplayer you are doing the same thing over and over again = replay.

Fine. Nitpick over my opening statement and completely ignore the question I actually asked.

Well, it could hardly get any shorter could it? :p

There's a really interesting preview of the single player modus from The Guardian newspaper here

Well, just as added information - I'm Hardcore exclusive ( Mostly S&D and some TDM for variety ). So if you can live with that, I'd love to play with ya'.

Would be sweet to get some Neowin games going, like in the BC1 days :)

Well I play hardcore every chance I get so I def don't mind it (Y) Looking forward to it and it seems I have the Wednesday off this week :D

If I were in the UK I'd probably do one of these deals, just because I can't see myself playing MoH for much longer. Completed the singleplayer, and the multiplayer isn't really holding my attention.

The steam forums really are going crazy, but thats par for the course on the steam forums. Trolls trolling trolls trolling trolls.

The Black Ops website is still saying midnight release - so the real release time is anybodies guess at this point. Steam release times are always unpredictable.

    • Microsoft confirms a new, useful Teams' app is coming very soon

    • New Outlook for Windows and Web is getting a simple but very useful email feature

      By hellowalkman · Posted

      New Outlook for Windows and Web is getting a simple but very useful email feature by Sayan Sen Recently Microsoft put up a blog post highlighting not one, not two, but 15 total reasons why it feels you should switch to New Outlook already. If that was not enough, the company is bringing another new feature soon that could finally compel you to switch over to the new app. According to a recent update on the Microsoft 365 roadmap, the tech giant is making changes to how message sorting works when users choose criteria besides the traditional options of From, Subject, or Date Received. The idea is to provide better options for the attribute being used for sorting and make it easier to understand why messages appear in a particular order. For those unfamiliar Outlook already allows users to sort emails using a variety of fields including sender, category, importance, subject, and message size. Users can access these options through the Filter menu in Outlook for Windows and Outlook on the web. With the upcoming change, whenever users sort by a field other than From, Subject, or Date Received, Outlook will automatically display an additional column showing the value being used for the sort. For example, if messages are sorted by Size, a Size column will appear in the message list, allowing users to immediately see the data that determines the ordering of emails. Microsoft believes this should make sorting behavior simpler and reduce the need to manually adjust views or inspect individual messages. Support for sorting by Flag Due Date is also coming and should be especially be helpful for users who rely on email flags to manage follow-up tasks and deadlines. The feature is listed under Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 564803 and is expected to reach general availability beginning later this month itself (June 2026). You can find the entry here. As always though, users should keep in mind that roadmap timelines can change and rollout schedules may occasionally be adjusted by Microsoft. Outlook for Web is also set to receive this feature.

      That is true. but the liability side of my balance sheet is clean and has been for decades.  Nobody comes a knocking,  calling or writing harassing me for the money i owe them.😎👍  Haven't dealt with "a money changer" in decades and like Jesus it was in Jerusalem.  Don't have much money, but have even less stress in my life.👍👍     P.S.  Sorry, can't walk on water or change it to wine,

      Maybe ? DLSS Swapper (can swap the DLSS/FSR/XeSS versions) as long as the game (typically online/competitive) doesn't checks for file tampering. You can try different version(s) or update if not the current version of the FSR. https://github.com/beeradmoore/dlss-swapper
