But it's hard to recommend as it doesn't do enough to change Call of Duty for the better. Last year's Modern Warfare was a glimpse into the future as a tonal reboot that built upon nearly 20 years of history. Black Ops Cold War simply doesn't. It introduces novel horror concepts and boasts a personalizing that doesn't go far enough. In the end, it's Call of Duty. No matter what time and place these games explore, the guns always fire the same way. 7/10
