Campaign, dedicated servers, console commands, mod tools, bots, zombies, rebalanced MP and pretty much everything. I don't buy the game for one feature alone. The rest of the game has to be worth the money.
Poll: Why are you buying Black Ops?

Not buying it, ever, for many reasons stated before me here, as well as the fact that it is a multiplayer based series now (at least that's all anyone talks about when they discuss MW2) and that level of competitive multiplayer is just plain boring to me now. If it adds replayability to you, then that's great, but to me it takes away from a game's finesse.
I think I'll get it on PS3. i liked cod but i could never get to into it and i think the new changes to the gameplay will make it easier for me to get into the swing of things
I'm not getting it right off the bat, but I will probably pick it up at some point if I hear that it is actually balanced. And if not for that, then for the zombies.
Because my little brother is a hopeless CoD fanboy and Christmas is coming up and I'm horrible at buying gifts.
Otherwise I would never even think out picking this shit up

It looks like good fun. The campaign looks better then MW2 and the online actually seems well thought-out.
Fixed drop shooting, fixed kill streak snowballing, fixed 'one-shotting'. I'm in.
Awesome personalisation as well? Hells fucking yeah!
Edit: Oh yeh, and killing zombies as Nixon? With my buddies playing Castro and Kennedy? All of my money, take it Activision, it's yours now.

None of the above reasons. All of my friends and I are pre-ordering it so that we don't get bored of CoD4...
Where's the option for "Because I want to and it looks fun?" As this option is not present, I chose "All the girlies say I'm pretty fly for a white guy."
Yeah...wait, what? How was that at all plausible? I mean it was fun, but in no way plausible.SpAc3man said:
OT: I'm pretty much buying it because all my friends are buying it, it'll be fairly fun I'm sure. But it's really just to keep me going until Portal 2.
I've enjoyed every COD game that I've played(this is kinda restricted to PC), especially World at War, which is the same devs, right?
I have black ops pre-ordered on steam. Which is kind enough to tease me with a countdown to release, currently set at 2 days and 23 hours til I can play it.
Had to be a Tuesday, I'm always so busy on Tuesday...

I'm not gonna but it. Why not? Because in a year or two we will have a Call of Duty 8th ops. And about a year or 6 months before that, all Black Ops servers will crash and fail and cry and be unpopulated because nobody bought the 5th map-pack.
:O
For real this time, they're on my personal blacklist. I made the list to mark that which I must not risk my boor budget on.
Was I swimming in cash, I'd just buy it for the sake of a few weeks of fun, but the point is I don't have the money. And as such will limit my expanses to that which I know has a high chance of making it worth it.
My judgement isn't perfect. I pre-ordered Arcania Gothic 4. (Which is why anyone, and I do mean anyone related to Gothic 4 is on the so called blacklist )

I be bored as fuck, all I do all day is play video games and I have gotten pretty good so I have like 3 or so games I play multiplayer while buzzing though single player games so this seems like it could keep me busy with it's singleplayer and replace medal of honor on my multiplayer rotation so good buy all in all.
Wow, I'm telling ya, if Modern Warfare 2 didnt suck so much all these whiners would have preordered all ready.
This is a different dev, they deserve a damn chance expecially since, you know, they are fixin shit up. Why does everyone think it 'cool' to hate the CoD series now? This degree of hatred mainly came after MW2 which is fair enough, but this game is different, if your into FPS games give it a chance.
Though I bet the haters will give in eventually seeing as they will miss out on what looks to be one of the most fun games in ages.
Also, final poll option is GOD.
