    That whole "Stalin had little need for heroes" line might be a nod to Georgy Zhukov, the "Hero of the Soviey Union" during WWII, whom Stalin was immensely fearful of due to the potential for him to undermine his cult of personality and power. Dimitri would be in a similar circumstance, and could even be a stand in for Zhukov.

To my countrymen, it was a symbol of hope. To the Germans...it was a symbol of defiance. Even now, his music still haunts me...the Nazis slit his throat while he slept. Collaborating with any Nazi is a betrayal, a betrayal against ALL of Mother Russia. Dragovich and Kravchenko...were not troubled by such matters. They only looked to pursue their own interests and agendas..."

      Actually it makes perfect sense when Reznov said it. Steiner was a Nazi, which Reznov hated more than anything else, and the one who originally created Nova 6. Dragovitch and Kravchenko betrayed Reznov and used it to kill his best friend Dimitri Pachenko, then they brought Steiner on board as a new ally and left Reznov to rot in the gulag the rest of his life. In Reznov's eyes that was an unforgivable crime against all of Russia. Reznov sabotaged Mason's brainwashing and programmed him to kill all three of them, so basically Reznov did end up getting his revenge through Mason.

This is why I want a COD game or any other shooter to go back to the Cold War and touch on the conflicts of that era such as the tragically forgotten Korean War.

      Black Ops was also my first COD. Even though I was young at the time, I understood how important stuff was. Black Ops was one of the games that taught me and showed me good storytelling and whatnot. I didn't have internet at the time, so I just played multiplayer with a friend or my dad usually. And then there was Zombies....
      It scared the hell out of me. It doesn't scare me anymore, ever since BO2 and I played that with some friends and whatnot a long time ago, although some shit is still creepy, i'll admit when I was younger I COULD NOT play Zombies. Although, I probably could've learned how to play and whatnot and enjoyed it if I wasn't so scared of the Zombies and Hellhounds. The only Zombies map that didn't scare me was Dead Ops. Now THAT was fun. Hope they make another Dead Ops style thing again for BO4, or a different Arcadey thing. Heh, imagine a Zombies Side-scroller, that'd be neat.

      Brave comrades of Vorkuta, the time has come to rise against our oppressors! Today we show the hearts of true Russians! We have all given our blood for the motherland. We have answered her calls without question. We gave our youth, our hearts, our very souls for her protection ... as brothers, we fought side by side against the German fascists. We crawled trough dirt and blood and sand to achieve our glorious victory ... Not for medals, or glory, but for what was right. We fought for revenge ... And when Berlin fell, how did our leaders repay us? We returned not to rapturous welcome ... but to suspicion and persecution. In the eyes of our leaders we were already tainted by the capitalist West. Torn from the arms of our loved ones, we found ourselves here... this place... this, this terrible place. Here we have languished, with no hope for release... No hope for justice. We have toiled in Dragovich's mines until the flesh peeled from our bones... We have watched our comrades succumb to sickness and disease... We have been starved. We have been beaten. But we will not be broken! Today, we will send a message to our corrupt and arrogant leaders. Today, my comrades... Vorkuta... BURNS!!!

And of me playing Zombies on Kino Five and Acsencion. These memories will be with me forever and I'm very thankfull for these moments. Playing zombies till 3-5 at night. The thrill it gave me because it was dark outside was inmense.
    Modern Warfare 2
    Black Ops
    &
    Modern Warfare 3
    These were incredible games, and I'm glad I was able to play them. They made me the man I am today. I talked English with my entire friendslist (I am Dutch). I was able to speak fluent English by the age of 12 because of these games. Also I became very social and more confident, not cocky.
    Almost forgot, It's incredible how I made friends almost 9 years ago online playing video games and to this day I talk to them. Even went to meet a guy in London.
    This is a perfect example on how games can create & unite.

    Once again this is ANOTHER BRILLIANT work my friend! Black Ops was BY FAR the best Call of Duty campaign ever as it was so in your face. World at War and Black Ops were the only games that truly didn't care what others thought. . On another note, I was wondering if you would consider reviewing Call of Duty Big Red one. I say this as I feel that game had the most memorable squad out there and figured you could break it down.

    Has anyone realized how deadly Mason truly is? I mean you add all of Reznov’s kills to Mason’s and Mason is essentially the Spanish Flu.

      Fr tho, Mason was a legend, feels like they did him dirty after BO2, like he got reserved to a backup for Woods and was just a side character in Cold War, he should’ve been the main character again with Sam Worthington

      Zach Must've not been too good on the sticks then. There's a reason why good players would consistently shit on bad players in BO1, and you could actually solo carry if you knew how to play.

    13 years later, all four DLC's are still full price. I learned this the hard way when I drunkenly bought BO1 on Steam for $40 and expected it to come with all of the DLC...it didn't.

      I like BO1 Zombies but BO3 Steam is probably the best Zombies to play since all the BO1 maps are in BO3 (ZC, COTD Remaster from the Steam workshop, and the upcoming FIVE remaster)
