"Looks Disappointing"
3 stars"

The fact that the developer Nihilistic is releasing a second game in the same year rings alarm bells, the development period for a AAA game, even for a handheld should generally be around 2 years. From the trailer the graphics look disappointing and it is running in 30fps as opposed to the other Call of Duty major titles running at 60fps. The sound for all of the weapons also didn't seem right and lacked ‘punch’. So overall the presentation is lacking the usual polish of a Call of Duty game. The limited game modes is also very disappointing, 6 multiplayer maps, many of which seem to be smaller versions of Black Ops maps, Nuke house for example is a smaller version of Nuke Town. The player count is limited to 4v4 and there is only a handful of game modes. The campaign is a series of short missions following many of the popular characters from the original black Ops and is meant to help bridge the gap between Black Ops 1 and 2. Hopefully there is a reasonable amount of content in the single player to make up for the lack of multiplayer options. There is also a survival mode only playable in single player. Despite the Black Ops name it is also missing any form of zombies, so those who liked the idea of zombies on the go will be disappointed. Overall this looks like a very streamlined package with none of the additional content that has been introduced to the series over the years. It also seems to be lacking the standard polish of Call of Duty. This title seems like an attempt to make a little more money from Black Ops but lacking the heart of what makes a Call of Duty game. We will have to wait for the final product but I wouldn't get your hopes up. Wait for Killzone Mercenary for an fps on the go.

"There better be zombies..."
3 stars"

I've only previewed this game with 3 stars because if there are no zombies, it simply won't impress me. The idea of a portable call of duty with dual analogue sticks and console quality graphics is great, but without that key awe factor that Treyarch has delivered in their past two games (and will in black ops 2) needs to be there to make this game worth buying.

"NO ZOMBIES"
4 stars"

First off I gotta say that trey arch has officially anounced that there will be no zombies :( But it still looks like a good game I mean it may not be using the full power of the vita like other titles but it has online multiplayer (with a limited lobby size of 8) so ps vitas online nation is once again shine through (hopefully)

"Can't wait for release!"
5 stars"

This game was ausome on PS3 so it should be on PS Vita. There is talk of it having zombies so I'm sure it will be great.
