Before I talk about the Campaign, let's talk about the masterpiece that is the main menu.
This is probably the only the game in the series where you're more inclined to start the campaign before even thinking about hopping into the multiplayer or the zombies as it perfectly sets the tone for the story.
In my opinion, the best overall zombies experience in the series as there isn’t a single bad map, although Black Ops 3 still has the best gameplay.
If you would like an arcade Vietnam-era FPS, just go buy Military Conflict: Vietnam instead, as it does MP much better than this, plus it's a fraction of the price.
While the graphics have aged, they’re still decent enough to support the game’s tone and atmosphere.
Anything decent gets removed and replaced with stronger aim assist haha.
