Not necessarily, other titles online play has been held back several hours after launch so that the masses can all start playing at the same time (Or just so the moaning American's that have no life don't fall behind).ugmo wrote:Ofcourse someone in NZ was going to be the first in the world, we are the first Time Zone to receive the game.

After waiting until 12:02 in the line (cant believe it, I was waiting in a line in Gisborne and it wasn't at the bottle store) I inserted the install disk into my computer at 12:09 (thanks to some awesome driving by DK on the way home) and was starting up the game at 12:20ish. I got online and there was no one on!!!
Joined a game and waited and the next people that came in confirmed that I was the first person to get online in Black Ops because no other server had people in it! (6000 odd servers too). While we waited for enough people to join the game before it started there was this cool pre-match game. Where you can just roam around and kill each other, but everything is in Black and white. Cool little feature. Then the game started and I got the first kill online .
I must say I've got a bit of an aged graphics card. But this looks great!
To be completely honest I wasn't even trying to be the first one. I just got home installed it and jumped straight online rather than tackling the campaign and yeah #1 so why not gloat a little. + It's not like I have much racing to do online over the next few years .
