Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 Zombies Chronicles Review

Image
Nearly two years after releasing, Black Ops 3 has received new DLC; Zombies Chronicles.

Fetch me their souls… Nacht der Untoten. The original Zombies map that was never intended to release, and was simply an Easter Egg that players received upon completing the World at War Campaign. There was no official Activision backing, and assets had to be reused (men on fire were used to create shambling zombies). There was also no voice acting, although it has now been implemented for Zombies Chronicles. There is no way that Treyarch could’ve predicted that their passion project would turn into a staple of the series, one which Call of Duty: WW2 developer Sledgehammer Games is keeping for their upcoming title.
Reach for Juggernog tonight! Zombies has come so far as to now become a whole other beast, a spin-off from the main game, with Treyarch even implementing Zombies into the Campaign and Multiplayer of Black Ops 3.

Top 5: Best First-Person Shooter Games

In a genre vastly populated with mediocre games it takes a lot to stand out. First-person shooters really took off with the likes of Doom and Wolfenstein 3D, but have since evolved to include much more than just loud noises and invincible protagonists. Here, James reveals his top 5 list of FPS games.
Medal of Honor: Frontline (PS2)
One of, if not the most memorable World War 2 first-person shooter game (that isn’t Call of Duty), Medal of Honor: Frontline checks all the boxes when it comes to an emotional, yet action-packed experience. The game which, ironically paved the way for the later success of Call of Duty, Medal of Honor: Frontline is the highlight of the series, putting players into the shoes of James Patterson, a Lieutenant tasked by the OSS to disrupt German operations.

The start of the game is probably the most notable, taking inspiration from the movie Saving Private Ryan, in which the American squad storm the beaches of Normandy. This scene was again ironically used by th…
