Black Ops Expectations?

I know many people out there expect Black Ops to be the game of Gods, but what do you think about it? Will the booster blocker work? Will killstreak-whoring tone down a bit? hat do you think?

Since killstreaks don't lead to other killstreaks I personally think that it could go either way... A huge campfest because now you have to get all 11 kills with your guns and equipment for a chopper gunner instead of getting a predator, which leads to the harrier, which leads to the chopper. OR people will play much more aggressive, looking for quick kills to pick up the cool, lower killstreaks like the RC Car thing.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE how now there is no stopping power =D
Reason being is that on every other cod I was pretty much forced to use it for perk slot 2 (which always has the coolest perks) because otherwise I would get outgunned. Now I can use different perks for slot 2 =D

Oh, and I don't see what the big deal about the ballistic knife is... It's just a throwing knife that goes in a straight line and it takes up your secondary weapon.

Shotguns are primaries again yay! I always hated getting SPASed

I'm pretty sure weapons like the tomahawk, ballistic knife, and torque bow are all just for messing around or montages. I don't really understand why there are so many, though

I didn't even know it was a big deal haha
Maybe it was brought in mainly because of the wager matches?

I could talk endlessly talk about my expectations, but all I'm going to say is the maps.

The maps look extremely impressive, most notably Havana, Jungle, and NukeTown (There's a DOUBLE RAINBOWWW in it!)

Poison Gas will either be getting rid of the campers, or I'll be mad. Besides, that's what those 'nade indicators are for, right?
