I spent friday and saturday night raping some bandwidth on Black Ops. Loved nearly eery minute of it (PS3 servers, I would of been under the name Belraven(2) incase anyone saw me. It's not my game so I was a clone)
The new levels are interesting, I think the only level I dislike is Hanoi.
The forest level is my personal favourite, I got extremely good at defending the ridge in the centre of the map, and managed quite a few 20+ kills to 5 or less death ratio's.
Also enjoying the Nuke-Town level. Set up a claymore covering both doorways to the upstairs of a house, situate myself prone out of sight of the window, and then gun down anyone who enters my building. Periodically turning around top shoot an explosive through the opposite house window.
My favourite set up is now
AK47u - grenade launcher attachment
Crossbow
Semtex
Concussion
Claymore
Perk1 - Hardline
Perk2 - Slight of Hand
Perk3 - Ninja
Killstreaks
RCx - really enjoy this, get quite a few multikills, and you are 90% guaranteed a kill with it.
Caredrop package
Mortar Team - very very good
I use 4 slots and set up identical classes, and modify the face paint and gun camo so I get perfect camoflage on any level - desert/snow/forest/urban

My thoughts on the game
They've upgraded the iron sights, and they're now so much better that I never bother with a scope any more. But saying that the new custom lenses are brilliant, for anyone interested, try setting your crosshair to the triangle shape, and colour it blue/green. It really helps.
The game itself still has a couple of bugs needed to be worked out, and the gameplay is a little jerky at times, but these will be patched and sorted out eventually.
The new system for buying everything is great, it rewards better players imo.
And my favourite bit about Black Ops is, they've made it very hard to camp.
On Modern Warfare 2 my usual kill/death ratio would always be like 13/9.. I was always sniper bait, or always ran into groups of campers.
On Black Ops, snipers and Campers have a harder time, and my assault class lets me go >20/<12 (more than/less than) quite often. Started friday around 3pm, at level 32. We stoped playing around 10pm. So I had to start again about level 36 1pm saturday, and by 8pm i'd hit level 44.
I really like black ops. I need to buy me a PS3.
