PS3 owner? Call of Duty: Black Ops owner? Apparently, going off the internet hivemind this morning, you’re meant to be disappointed with it.
The Register has picked up on an internet petition (we love those things) that suggests that PlayStation 3 owners feel their version of the game is sub-par, and with over 2,000 signatures in less than 24 hours it’s obvious this is gathering some momentum.
To frame that figure with some kind of perspective, the game has shifted 1.4 million copies – albeit across all formats.
The petition cites “sub-par graphics, buggy software and less features” than the Xbox 360 version, which has, apparently, better graphics, less bugs and more features than the PS3 version.
One of the main omissions surrounds the split screen online multiplayer, which as far as we were concerned was picked up before the game was released, but the petition references several online sources, such as this one on Product Reviews and this one on CVG.
The petition is essentially requesting “a full refund” for the undersigned’s purchases.
Our review of Black Ops is here, the game scored a 9/10.

Most of the criticisms seem to be that it isn’t Modern Warfare. But a lot of the problems will be ironed out with time same as every other CoD game, by this time next year it might actually be possible to not get kicked from a party

Yeah, well I’ve been playing through this on xbox, and it looks nowhere near as good as Killzone 2 or R2 ;)

and the actual game it’s self is boring as hell; slightly more entertaining than MoH, but at least that had Talifucks to kill which was satisfying.

crappy console ports… the real problem here is the people buying ps3/xboxs, and playing their horrible games. stop it now and maybe someday people can have a competent gaming industry again.
now i am going to falcon punch some kittens because of this website dedicated to consoles.

Welp as I don’t own both I had no idea what I was missing, however this does not bother me as I’m not insane.
Also the comments here seem to be “yeah well 360 players get little kids shouting in mics durhurhur” grow the fuck up, you are just as bad
