Gosh, I feel like such a nerd, reserving a game. Never done anything like this before.

This game kicks serious ass. I played it for a few hours last night, good times. There are a few minor things that suck like when you reload the background gets blurry, and you cant jump, but otherwise its brutal.

I do it in CS all the time, point being is that the little things that I got used to on PC first person shooters aren't carried over that well to the console. But, Black is the best FPS I've played on a console in a long time.

typical EA garbage not worth losing half a days pay over.

I've beat black and its only 8 missions long. My total play time was right under 6 hours. Its a fun FPS while it last. Dunno if its worth the $40 price tag though.

Why leave the office early? You have already reserved your copy. It will still be there after your shift ends.

What? They don't teach this in the military? :shocked: hehe So I'm guessing they don't teach you how to run around a corner then quickly jump and shoot your enemy with a head shot. I'm more of a DODS fan my self. But I also play CSS.
