    Plenty of discussion here, including my own thoughts:

    but, basically token single player, decent multiplayer, not worth full price.

    True, but there's a lot of similarities and hence a common appeal.

    I'm the same now.

    Considering the single player is just tacked on, the stories aren't very compelling.

    I didn't clear Black Ops when I had it, and never finished BC2 either and I've over 130hours put into that.

    NO no no no no!!! It's an absolutely terrible game! Even the shooting itself is awful!

    It tries way too hard to be CoD, but just comes off as cheap and dated

    Pity the game isnt a bit better. The Dev's provided dedi server files, the first for an FPS game for a while, hopefully this is a sign of things to come.

    Its plays like a mix between CSS and HL2....not great but worth a look TBH, Did not even try the MP mode.

    did Medal of Honor (2010) have dedicated servers on console? If not does any game bar homefront have them?
