If you've been reading about Black Ops because you're excited, then you MUST have heard about these. They're two new game modes in Black ops' multiplayer. "Gun Game" gives you a crap weapon, then by getting more kills, it upgrades. By being killed, you downgrade. "One in the Chamber" gives you a handgun with 1 bullet and tac knife. 1-shot kills. If you kill someone, you get their bullet and continue, but if not, then you have to rely on knifing.

I've been playing the modded servers of Mw2, which already have these two game modes created. Gun Game has been around longer than Black ops' multiplayer reveal, however. Anyways, here's the previewing of it:

Gun Game

Modern Warfare 2 does this beastly. There are several versions. My favorite was the 1-kill upgrade where you start with unlimited throwing knives and got an upgrade every level and the upgrade was slightly better. And some give you massive upgrades after three kills, such as going from RPG to Model Akimbo.

However, MW2 versions don't let you downgrade. Which makes a lot more sense. Because if you're facing someone amazing at it, they'll have unlimited Javelins while you have a throwing knife. Downgrading sucks. They should at least make "safe zones" where at a certain level, you can't drop below it, like in the show "Who want's to be a millionaire." This way, after they achieved x, they can't drop below x.

Let's hope Treyarch understands, and if they don't, then let's hope they patch it.

One in the Chamber

yesyesyesyesyesyesyesyeyesyes....


YES!

This game mode is glorious. We were playing at Scrapyard and I was doing terrible, but having a blast wit it. We all got a revolver with tac knife and we were running and knifing, trying to collect more bullets. And it worked wonders. Hard? Yes. Fun? Definitely. Treyarch CANT screw this one up.

gungame on couterstrike is still beast o this day
Counter Strike is obsolete.
I saw your I AM BACK post. Never heard of you, and I've been posting cblogs for about 3 years now.

As for the game modes, couldn't care less. Much more interested in Halo Reach and then Gears 3 for my multiplayer fill.

But you enjoy them, you seem excited.
nice thanks for the info
@Kytherno

Doesn't mean its not still fun!
@ kytherno: Yeah, Counter Strike still is fun. How the hell could it be "obsolete"? And what made it obsolete?

That's a hell of statement to make just because somebody told you that the game mode you're excited about didn't originate in Call of Duty. Unless there is some other reason you said that, which I doubt, and which I won't believe even if you say there is.
Call me crazy, I've never been a big fan of Counter Strike. I don't really think it's obsolete, but it's not in my taste. And the graphics are...meh.. Which graphics don't matter much...unless it's a shooting game.
@Kyrherno
May I ask

How do graphics make a big diffrence in a shooting game.

So what your saying is that the game mechanics got second while eye candy comes first?

Would you play Call of duty modern warfare 2 if if had counter -strike 1.6 graphics?
And would you play counter-strike if it had modern warfare 2 graphics?
Winged Kraby, wowowowow, let's slow down.

I said "Graphics don't matter much, unless it's a shooting game".

It's not that way with every genre. I would play an RPG if it looked like this, but I wouldn't play a shooter, if it looked like this. It's different, because shooters are supposed to intense with you on your seat, and every kill should be glorious. You can't get that same feeling with crap graphics. While RPGs, gameplay and story both matter a lot, while graphics, not so much.

If an RPG was good in story and gameplay wise, then I'd play it if it looked like this:



But that's not the same way with shooters, because I'd get no satisfaction of killing a square while the bullets were square themselves.
@kythernal
I play quake 3 from time to time and every kill I get fells just as good as one in a newer shooter.
Shure maby when ever I kill someone with a rocket launcher their bodys turn into little cubrso gore insted of Models of arms and legs like in gears of war.

Also in my post I never mention to say that about every genre.

Also in evey single fps at the end of the day it's just pixels shooting other pixels just with some more pretted up than others.

Besides if I remeber correctly there is an HD mod for half life and counterstrike to make it look better.
