Nostalgia is a Weapon (Black Ops 7 Preview)

We’re only a few days removed from the Black Ops 7 reveal. Sick of the discourse yet? I sure am! I’ve been dodging the rage bait and bad-faith takes, but it’s no secret that many Call of Duty players are genuinely burnt out on the series. If you’re one of…

Black Ops 7 Reveal: Zombies First Impressions

Sitting down to collect my thoughts after the Black Ops 7 reveal, I think what I find most surprising is that the game offers such a meaty package. Between the campaign and its endgame, 16 Multiplayer maps, a Tranzit-sized Zombies experience with Survival maps, and Dead Ops Arcade 4, there’s…

Reckoning with [REDACTED] – Black Ops 6 Zombies Ending Thoughts

One final reminder: spoilers ahead. In October 2024, I said, “I’ll worry about the next book when we finish the one we’re on”. I’ve held off writing about the potential return of Richtofen, Dempsey, Takeo and Nikolai until now. I don’t particularly enjoy seeing things leak, but it’s the reality…

Battlefield 6 Won’t Kill Call of Duty. It Doesn’t Need To.

The reveal of Battlefield 6 has set the heather alight. For the first time in a long time, there’s excitement surrounding a AAA first-person shooter that isn’t Call of Duty. Change seems to be in the air, but is it all bluster? I’ve never been much of a Battlefield…

Black Ops 6 Zombies: Reckoning Preview – Towering Ends

The end is nigh. Black Ops 6’s final Zombies map, Reckoning, is on the way, and if I’m being honest, I’m excited! The teasers from the past week far exceed those for previous maps like Citadelle Des Morts, The Tomb, or Shattered Veil. They’re more reminiscent of the Terminus ones…

Black Ops 7: The Seventh Wonder

Black Ops 7, outta nowhere! In retrospect, I’m not surprised it turned up at the Xbox Summer Showcase. Microsoft invested a substantial amount of time and money acquiring Activision, of course, it’d want the publisher’s pièce de résistance to appear. I don’t think anyone could have predicted the way it…

The Grief of Modern COD Zombies

I’ve already had a lot to say about the return of Grief, but no matter the amount of pre-release information available, you can only get a feel for it once you’ve jumped into a match. Having spent the past week body-blocking players in hallways and collecting bruises from Kali Sticks,…

Good Grief, It’s Back

For the first time in over a decade, Grief returns! If you’d asked me back in 2012, I never would have imagined being excited about it coming back in a future game. I was not a fan of Black Ops 2 Zombies at launch and saw Grief as nothing more…
