I already have an extensive Rolling Stones collection and the fact they featured on the advert was the reason I tried the game. Works both ways lol

Ive also taken to not reading comments on youtube anymore, they make my eyes bleed.

ILUMINATI I TELL YOU. Mind control thru music.

Wow sometimes a little music goes a long way .

OMFG.

Sky goes dark.


Lightning....


Thunder....

World Asplodes.




(I agree with sofik888)


Dies.

@catithx...Such deep words....@sofik88 it's not sad....it's just the times there people who like pop and dance...simple as that...doesn't make it bad....but it depends on the person really. Now about the story...IT"S SUBLIMINAL MESSAGING!

I heard the Nazi's are doing pretty good right now too because of Black Ops.

@sofik88
I agree, it is really a shame. I'm 20 now, and when I was in high school, I would ask people about artists like Dire Straits, Mark Knopfler, Eric Clapton, Meat Loaf, Peter Gabriel, Bob Seger, Brian Setzer Orchestra.

More often than not, I would get a blank stare and a "WHO?" It was depressing, to say the least. Especially when all the girls were going crazy over how cute Justin Bieber is.

Stones are effin Legends. But I don't think it's sad that the Sales of their music jumped through CoD. I'd rather think it is the opposite. The Band was introduced to a whole new audience and so more people can enjoy the Music of the Rolling Stones.

But on one Point I agree: it is Bad we don't see more of this quality music in games.

@jean Why is it depressing why do you even care? just because people don't like what you like doesn't mean it's sad or depressing...why do you care if girls think JB is cute...your like a 20 year old man O_o I'm sure 20 years from now people will say the same thing "It's sad I remember when artist were good like Justin beiber or something." I Guess it's natural to think anything you grew up listening to is much better than what you may hear as an adult...So i don't blame anyone I guess...but I just don't see why people really care :-/

Eh, all of their music has been selling well recently, since Keith Richards' autobiography came out. They've also been pusing their various Greatest Hits/Best Of/etc collections a lot too recently. I don't doubt that their inclusion in Black ops has helped a little but I would think(hope) that the book and the Christmas push have more to do with it.

@Jnr Johnson
It's depressing simply on the grounds that they're missing a lot of really good music. I'm not one to disparage people for having different tastes, but I have been known to argue with people about why artists like Queen, Mark Knopfler, etc are much more talented than "artists" like Kesha and Justin Bieber.

Forgive me if this comes across as elitist, but I have a far greater respect for older artists than I do the majority of artists today. It's not necessarily that the songs are unappealing, it's just that they don't have the heart and soul that the "old" music did. It's kind of hard to describe.

Borrow 40 Licks - listen to things like Mother's Little Helper and Brown Sugar - imagine you're in the time period and be amazed at how they changed music.

Not liking something from 50-60 years ago is fine - but at least respect it.

I actually have a Super Audio CD of "Sympathy For The Devil" that has a few Remixes from Fatboy Slim, Full Phat, and the Neptunes. Sounds pretty awesome in 5.1 Surround.

But yeah, how do you NOT know who the Rolling Stones are?

@JeanLuc761: I understand what you are saying. Justin Beiber actually seems like a fun kid who doesn't take himself too seriously (really, how could he though with that hair cut he stole from a lesbian circa 2003) but his music is crap. It's supposed to be though. It's meant for mass consumption by tween girls. Tween girls have literally no taste in music whatsoever. They just like what they see and how it makes them feel. The quality of the music isn't a factor as it doesn't exist.

Personally, I want to see Justin Beiber turn 25 and either implode into a dazzling drug/sex/firearm spectacle or emerge as his generation's Bob Dylan. That would make my fucking decade. As for Keisha, I think her music is repulsive and the image she presents is ridiculous and nothing to emulate, especially by a bunch of kids who are trying to figure themselves out. At least when Madonna did the slutty thing in the 90's she tried to class it up a bit and convey a sense of empowerment.

Also, anyone who argues with you about the glory and human triumph that is Queen needs to go sit in a fucking corner until they come to their senses.

Wow, long response is long.

I think expecting anyone other than hardcore Beaver fans to remember who he is this time next year. There will be another square jawed 12 year old for all the tweens, teens, and creepy 20 somethings to gawk at. Just walk up to someone and say Jonas Brothers then lol when they look at you like you spoke in Japanese.

Quality music died in the 90's.

I dunno what the hell a "tween" is and I feel I'm probably better off for it.

Who the hell actually cares? It's always amazed me that when millionaires make more money it is considered news. Like when people obsess over box office receipts - how incredibly interesting. The Stones have been whores with their music as far as licensing goes, and to me it just shows how little regard they have for their own work. To me it is an embarrassment when songs like this turn up in commercials, it just deflates any value or integrity the song had, and shows up the composers for being shallow money grabbing businessmen who care more about their fortunes than any supposed meaning behind their art. This kind of whorish attitude KILLS genuine art.

I just figured it was Battlefield: Vietnam's inclusion of "Gimme Shelter" that helped sales. Also, RockBand 2.

That or, you know, it's the motherfucking Rolling Stones!

I'm glad people are finally starting to hear a Stones song that isn't (I Can't Get No) Satisfaction. That song blows... and because that was the only song I knew for the longest time, I thought the Stones were shit. Yay for good Stones.

If classic rock makes a comeback I won't be sad! It's pretty much all I listen to. I can't even name a Justin Beiber song.

@Elsa
You speak as if rock actually went away.

I've never played a single COD game, but I'm a huge Stones fan. Introducing more people to good music can only be a good thing!

@ Gene Eric,

She said Classic Rock. There is a difference between various types of rock. Classic Rock ended in the early 80's. Although the "Classic Rock" umbrella gets wider and wider as time goes on.

@sofik88,

"i think it's rather disturbing when you hear that Justin Beber is cute - isn't he like UNDER 15?"

15 year olds can't be cute? Or are we to assume you want to fuck everything in the world you consider remotely cute? Weirdo.

Consumption of media often covers more than one type of media. I wonder how many albums Cage the Elephant sold after Borderlands came out? I had never heard of them before the game and i love their album. Now i am looking for a decent copy of the Masters of War cover by the Staple Singers in the Resistance 3 trailer.

As if the Stones need any extra money, but both of those songs are amazing. I'd say they should have used Brown Sugar, but that was in the 80's. It also scares me that people have no idea who the Stones are, especially considering they've been around for nearly 50 years.

@sofik88 God I feel for you, I remember listening to my Ipod on the coach a couple months ago, and a guy in my class asked me whether he could listen in, I said yes and he asked me what kind of music I had, so I told him, Jimi Hendrix, Iron Maiden, Rolling Stones, Guns N Roses, Nirvana etc. He then looked at me with a horrifyingly blank expression on his face and said 'I meant any GOOD music'. I think I died a little on the inside that day.

@crazyturtle1234
I think I just died a little reading that...

This makes me feel less embarrassed about being introduced to the band by Martin Scorsese's movies.

Since when does a band like the Rolling Stones need help making money? Everyone in the comments is referring to them as if they're the underdogs.

@crazyturtle1234
In their minds, they think that any music that they never heard on a radio/TV/whatever is shit, so yeah, it's pretty sad.
But we shouldn't care much about that.
It's their loss anyway.

I'm loving the music selection. Good choices, Activision. I'm not surprised at how well Black Ops is doing...as one of the "most critically acclaimed games of the year worldwide," it's apparent that Kotick is really doing a great job over there. Check out this release - http://investor.activision.com/releasedetail.cfm?releaseid=529609

Sympathy for the devil is literally one of the best rock songs of all time.

Sometimes we just need to be reminded of that. Thanks Activision.

@bulletcurtain: It's not about the money, it's about recognition and respect from a generation that, for the most part, hasn't really known or cared about them. It's not about benefiting the band, but benefiting culture. The Stones are a huge part of our musical and cultural history and it's good to see people to recognize and respect that.

WARRRRRR CHILDREN
It's just a comment away

I love the The Goddamned Rolling Stones. I dig their early blues/rock'n'roll stuff more than their later, but I can at least listen to their whole catalog without cringing. Best songs: Mother's Little Helper, Carol, Little Red Rooster
