Treyarch may have fixed some of the errors in MW2's multiplayer, but I don't feel that they've delivered anything new to the table. The weapons are crappier (although I can still net 11-killstreaks with ease). You have to pay to unlock a pro variant of a perk after you complete the challenges for it, which is kinda puzzling to me. Also, the spawning system and hit detection is flawed. Excluding Array, the structure of maps renders sniper rifles useless, in my opinion (although I rarely use sniper rifles). Shotguns should have remained secondary weapons. I miss the Riot Shield, too. The emblem editor allows people to create some sick emblems, but others may create emblems that some may find highly offensive (Nazi symbols, penises).

On the flip side, the currency system is nice. I highly approve of the customization options, especially the option to customize your gun heavily - from the camo to the color of your reticle. BO's stellar campaign is on par with MW2's action-packed campaign. Dead Ops Arcade is addictive. o.O

It seems that Treyarch attempted to please everyone with Black Ops, which is an impossible feat. I still enjoy its multiplayer, but MW2 did WAY better (before the exploits came into place).
