Sorry Rusty.

Man alive did I have to jump through hoops to get the code though - loads of info on the worst laid out web page I have seen in a long while, then a photo of the packaging and a copy of the invoice, then had to wait while it was all verified and a time-limited code was sent to me.

Utter ballache for DJ and I!

Gone are the days of a scrap of paper languishing in the box with the numbers on it.

Yeah the hoops were ridiculous. Really appreciate Snowy jumping through them. Got in downloaded last night so looking forward to trying it tonight.

Yeah. Played some Team DM lastnight and really enjoyed it. I think the self-heal is a really good change as it allows me to get more than one kill at a time and also sometimes survive when an opponent has got a jump on me.

The UI is a bit of a mess though. I have no idea where the customise loadout stuff is and the options are illustrated with text that doesn't make it very clear what they are.

I'm interested in trying some Blackout and Zombies tonight.

Well this is a new one. Apparently the Black Ops 4 microtransaction store went live yesterday, but only on PS4 where it will be exclusive for 7 days. So basically Sony paid Activision for the pleasure of selling more stuff to their players.

Randomly, I watched Mack's review of the game last night, in which he says he has this feeling that microtransactions will be enabled once the reviews are already out. Seems he was right on the money there.

Such a shame as by all accounts it's a pretty decent CoD this year.

30% off on psn just now. That’s a huge discount for COD that I don’t remember seeing in the first year before never mind the first month.....
