Missions are not story-driven and lack any of the Michael Bay spectacle we expect from the series. And with no checkpoint system in place you’ll be replaying them a lot. Missions are simply presented in menu fashion with star ratings that are supposed to encourage you to play and replay them like an arcade game. There are only ten missions, and while they feature characters from the Black Ops franchise like Mason, Hudson, and Woods, there is no traditional campaign or coherent story. But even those nine extra months weren’t enough to save this disaster, and you can’t imagine how much it pains me to say all this because I have been a huge Call of Duty fan and loyalist since the franchise was born on PC in October of 2003.ĭeclassified offers nothing that you expect or even want from a Call of Duty experience, coming across as more of a butchered version of Spec Ops crammed onto the Vita…well not really crammed since there are only 45 minutes of original gameplay to be found in the game, making this more suited as a $5 download title from the PS Store than a retail release doomed to the discount bin. It had nine extra months to gestate in the womb of Activision and Nihilistic and become the first great handheld FPS on the Vita or any system for that matter.
As for the contents of the Vita game chip snapped into the plastic case with the new Declassified game…well…let’s just say that some things should have remained top secret.ĭeclassified is the perfect example of a potentially good game rushed to retail to meet a system launch date, but the sad thing is this game didn’t come out during the February launch window. For maximum enjoyment of Call of Duty: Black Ops Declassified for the PS Vita you must first locate the download code for five year old PSP game, Call of Duty: Roads to Victory, enter the code into the PS Store, download, and play that game and only that game.
