official Call of Duty: Black Ops

Looks like the Steam unlock time got pushed back by a few hours.

Mines not pushed back at all... From the beginning it said it would unlock tomorrow at 10 a.m. Eastern Time U.S. and it still does. Says 1 day, 1 hour for the countdown.

I promised myself I wouldn't get excited about his, I failed. :no:

i have it finally, its in my hands and its about bloody god dam time, now to make the trip home and hellloooooooooo next 48 hours of non stop gamming :D

I've not really read much in terms of reviews, how's the single player in comparison to MW2? Longer hopefully?

Terrible supermarket deals this year so I just bought it off Amazon for ?36 Release day delivery at least.

?29.99 at Bestbuy on the day if you have any up in Haggis Land. I have one on my doorstep. Will either be that or the Tesco deal for ?45 including the ?20 PSN card.

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.

Indeed. Where is the troll face when you need it? Haha.

Also, here it still says unlocks in 1 day and 30 minutes ... so tomorrow @ 10am EST. Kind of sucks but oh well, I won't be around until tomorrow at 4:00pm anyhow!

Can you access multiplayer without Steam? I will not buy this game if I have to use Steam.

COD MW2 was hackers paradise. Complete crap............

[PixilEyes]

Are there any deals going on in the USA. If not I'll just order it with Steam.

I'm not sure if this deal is still going on but on http://www.direct2drive.com, you can purchase Black Ops with the promo code "bigsavings" and save about $12.

You'll get the key to enter into Steam tomorrow when it releases.

[LingeringSoul]

Damn, fifteen Prestige levels? Talk about having your bases covered. I'll be happy if I can get one Prestige level :laugh: .

Can't seem to find any good deals in Canada, unfortunately. The Best Buy Reward deal is the best one that I've seen (buy the game and get 800 reward zone points). Ahh well, that's like getting $10 back...

what's the new time? (can't access steam forums at work)

I bought it via D2D and they are not sending the steam keys until 7am PST.

Goddamn it, MW2 all over again :( got it in my hands at home, but can't install cos steam says "It isn't officially released yet".

Thanks steam. You goddamn tease.

[rajputwarrior]

$15 a month for a server sounds kinda tempting... neowin server anyone?

[Duality]

My timer is currently at 14 hours, will be 13 hours once it hits 1800GMT in 15 minutes. So, looking at a 7am GMT unlock here.

Well its not the 9th yet just be glad you got it early and installed ready for the unlock instead of waiting for release date to get the game.

So just to recap, what are the best deals in the UK atm?

[rajputwarrior]

i can actually view the steam forums at work now :s anyways, 7am PST time for everyone which is the same as the D2D time, i guess those guys always knew what the time was going to be for unlock.

Those are all the ones i could find, REALLY hoping someone makes an announcement to do it ?25-30 tomorrow. The amount of sales they will get by undercutting competitors would be unreal

[threesixtyflip]

With the Best Buy offer, are they opening at midnight to sell it? :s

I think you should re-read it. It's just 12 Months of XBL + a COD T-Shirt. :whistle:

I know, and I am glad I've got it here ready to go when steam decides it's time. Just used to getting the game a day early from game.co.uk preorders and being able to play 'em straight away :(. I'm just impatient and spoiled from all that past experience is all.

Either way it's still a tad annoying having the box sitting infront of me without the ability to even install let alone play it :p.
