I'm not a huge fan of COD series, i'd rather play B:BC2 any day, however i found black ops entertaining in some parts (mainly the zombies missions) however the reason it's so popular is best described by a guy who's comment i one read on youtube " Call of Duty is famous for the same reason justing bieber is .... the kids man "
As for the reviews being biased i tend to agree they are to some extent which is only normal in the end since most reviewers are american and quite frankly they'd have some sort of bias towards games and consoles produced in the US.

I remember Blizzard's blue logo first hit my mind in Blackthorne intro

Oh Blackthorne, that's a good memory, it was an amazing game at the time, and it was hard too.

Well Starcraft 2 might be a good and balanced strategy game for people who like science fiction games, but it uses an very old methodology for a modern strategy game, which i cant even accept to play these days, specially since i have been playing Company Of Heroes for the last couple of years. SC 2 does'nt even compare to COH which is by far the best multiplayer strategy game i ever played. I have been playing strategy games since they started(By the way i never found Warcraft 3 to be good to start with).
