Poll: Why did YOU buy Black Ops?

[Random Fella]

I didn't, I learnt form my mistake of buying MW2

 

[Drakmorg]

I'll admit I bought it primarily for the multiplayer. Of course that was back when I could actually stand CoD multiplayer.
I ended up having a lot more fun overall with the single-player campaign though.

I didn't buy it, and thank god for that.

 

[Parkway91]

Because I hadn't yet discovered Battlefield Bad Company 2. Can't blame anyone but myself for that.

i loved mw2. blops never ended up running MP well, got about 10 hours out of it. waste of moneh

 

[Korten12]

Bought it because I liked CoD, and I liked the setting the choose.

Plus, Zombies.

The Campaign was surprisingly good, the multiplayer was stellar yet I bought BlOps for one reason...zombies. I knew it would keep me occupied, and it did. The zombie mode was back and better than before

 

[Daget Sparrow]

Someone else bought it for me, because I wouldn't.

Liked Zombies though...plus I kinda liked the Black Ops story.

 

[GundamSentinel]

Bought it for the SP, stayed for the MP. It is my big gaming sin that I actually honestly like playing CoD games.

Friend of mine kept "nagging" on me to get it so we could play Zombies together...so I bought it when I saw it was on sale for 75% off in local gamestop. ^^

Mainly for the zombie mode. But the overarching reason was because I wanted a new multi-player FPS to play and unfortunately no good, new multi-player FPS had been released recently when I purchased it. So I had to settle for what was out at the time.

 

[gorfias]

I got it for my daughter who begged me to get it for her.

 

[Triangulon]

I bought it because it came free with my preowned 360. I would never have willingly parted with actual money for it.

 

[Aeriath]

I hadn't played a CoD game since CoD4 and a guy at my work wanted someone to play with online. It was fun but the frustration eventually got the better of me as it did in CoD4. I'm rubbish at the Zombie mode so I didn't play much of it. I got into the singleplayer, and if you forgive some of the shit the CoD series does in singleplayer (e.g. infinitely respawning grenade-happy enemies) then it was quite fun.

I bought Black Ops because of the hype. Lesson learned.
The split-screen multiplayer is cool, though. Games just don't do local co-op anymore.

 

[Weealzabob]

I didn't buy it, it was a Christmas present. But looking back if I were to have bought it, it would have been for single player and zombies.
Which is funny because I found the singleplayer to be a poor effort compared to the games that came before it. Zombies, while a lot of fun, wasn't as good as I'd hoped it would be. And the multiplayer which I'd thought was going to be complete crap, turned out to be shockingly good.

A Friend bought it and wanted me to play it with him ... or was it the other way around ....
