okay, I didn't expect this game to be this good lol. story was decent, gameplay was top-notch, and I just had a blast playing it. (btw, this isn't on the higher difficulties because they were locked. couldn't play it even if I wanted to)

my best friend dying in the first mission was kinda insane, but that being my entry point to Atlas made sense so… anyway, the exoskeleton leveling thingy was nice. actually completed the headshots challenge first because I liked that the enemies' helmets actually come off when you shoot them.

only thing I'm miffed about is the ending. it was just recycled Dust to Dust, wasn't it? Price and Yuri being juggernauts, then Mitchell and Gideon being ASTs lol. Irons and Makarov both being skyscraper kills too…

full review here and my journey so far is here.

onto Black Ops III!
