The Call of Duty: Black Ops mythbusters series from Defend The House is now live. Episode 5 puts another six of their favourite myths and the most asked Black Ops questions to the test, often with surprising results.

• A falling Care Package will destroy a RC-XD?
• Using a zipline will discard your Death Machine?
• The Auto-Turrets on Berlin Wall will not shoot through smoke?
• Knifing a body shortly after a kill can result in an instant second kill?
• You can capture a flag in Second Chance?
• Launchers can lock on to Valkyrie Missiles?

I made a new Sniper Montage for ZzZ-lTrickz-ZzZ and i put a couple of them predator lock on targets. To spice up things a bit more.

Mad Catz have partnered with Activision to precisionAIM controllers for Call of Duty: Black Ops, they are considered to be £40 or less. The experience would be very delighting with the ergonomic grip.




Precision Aim mode helps you snipe more easily by slowing the thumbsticks, but if you think about it that with all the quick scoping going on, who needs precision Aim.

Mad Catz is also offering a Gunnar ProGaming glasses package which reduces eye strain, also you get a voice headset that you can clip to your glasses. These peripherals will be released as soon as the game is released in November.
