But the series I am especially fond of is the Black Ops series. I might as well admit that I'm a Call of Duty fan. ![]() If you have an average to above average (not best) internet, get this game. 343 Industries may run a very close second this year, but Call of Duty is still the boss on the battlefield. Huge, deep, streamlined and varied, it raises the bar yet further for online shooters – especially with the new focus on eSports and CoD-casting. The multiplayer, on the other hand, remains peerless. Despite its quality, Treyarch’s campaign falls slightly short of Halo 4′s sandbox brilliance, and can’t match Spec Ops: The Line ’s harrowing narrative. This year has seen some great shooters in Halo 4, Borderlands 2, Spec Ops: The Line and Ghost Recon: Future Soldier, and to say that Black Ops 2 surpasses them all would simply be untrue – but only just. Where Modern Warfare’s campaigns have become increasingly throwaway from game to game, Black Ops 2′s shapeable narrative changes the game and is hopefully portentous of the franchise’s future. Saying that a Call of Duty title is a contender for Shooter of the Year is almost clichéd but the truth is that Treyarch have taken a series that even staunch fans can’t fully deny was beginning to feel stale and rolled the dice – and not just with the multiplayer mode. Looking ahead, we have big launches like Madden NFL 24, as well as major games coming to Game Pass like The Texas Chain Saw Massacre.Is Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 worth your money? Rounding up the top 40 are three reappearances with Conan Exiles (which was included in the latest Xbox Game Pass Weekly Quests) at 38th, Fallout 4 at 39th, and Smite at 40th. The game has been in Game Pass for a while, so perhaps more players are moving onto something else, but it's got plenty of new content on the way to lure them back in - Exoprimal could even get a Dino Crisis crossover if fans want it enough. It's not such good news for Exoprimal, however, which has fallen 15 places to 34th. Broforce, too, gets its first appearance in the top 40 at 31st after joining the Game Pass library last week. Just below, Quake 2 makes its first appearance at 23rd after shadow-dropping into Xbox Game Pass last week. Then we have our first reappearance of this week's chart with Vampire Survivors at 19th - the game adds a couch co-op mode soon with a free update, and there might be even more Vampire Survivor goodness on the way as the game also reportedly has a Director's Cut with extra content. Meanwhile, Diablo IV has fallen out of the top ten to twelfth. Overwatch 2 has managed to pull itself back into the top ten from twelfth - the devs recently discussed how they were unfazed by the decline in player engagement with Overwatch 2, which sees a "normal ebb and flow of players" as a free-to-play game. Chart Heidi Nicholas The top six spots on our Gameplay Chart of popular Xbox games refuse to budge this week, and it's not until seventh place where we see a change, with Apex Legends having hopped up three spots (presumably as a response to all the changes made with Resurrection). ![]()
