No single-player campaign mode for Black Ops 3 on PS3 and Xbox 360

4.6
Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 will only have multiplayer and zombie mode on PS3 and Xbox 360.

The announcement popped up on the Call of Duty community blog, and states that, “The ambitious scope of the 1-4 player coop Campaign design of the PS4, Xbox One and PC versions could not be faithfully recreated on old generation hardware.”

So if you pick up Black Ops 3 on PS3 or Xbox 360, you’ll only be able to play the multiplayer mode and the zombies mode.

The last gen versions will also be lacking in “features built to leverage the next generation hardware like the new Weapon Paint Shop and the new suite of eSports tools [which] will only be available on Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 for PS4, Xbox One, and PC.”

With that in mind, the RRP for the game on older platforms is $49.99 and will include a “bonus download for the original Call of Duty: Black Ops (bonus download availability may vary by region)”.

I don’t know that many CoD players care that much about the campaign, so is the absence of it something that they’ll be upset about? Should we all have switched over to this gen already anyway, almost two years into this console cycle? Let us know what you think about this move in the comments below.

ODST It's been nearly 2 years. Cut off the support to last gen consoles ad reach the full potential of the now current gen hardware.


It's not the "last gen" consoles holding back the "current gen" ones, it's the hardware limitations of them. The devs don't magically have some "UNLOCK ALL POWER" button for the consoles.


This is not true. A good example of this is Ghost. That game looks the same on last gen as it does on current gen. Ghost was designed with last gen still in mind. Advanced warfare and Black Ops 3 were made for newer gen, and a outside company was paid to port the game over to last gen.

It is ridiculous to say last gen ins't holding back last gen. The last gen consoles have almost a quarter of the specs that the current gen has.


CoD is bad in the first place.
They keep going away from what fans want like WaW remake or whole new WW2 games.

slapshot101 It seems kind of weird that they aren't supporting campaign. It seems like it would be a lot easier to do then multiplayer. I wonder what happened because they always said there would be campaign but that it would only be single player and not be able to do the co-op feature of next gen.


Why they are even developing multiplayer and zombies for last gen is beyond me. It is holding the whole gaming industry back, cut all support for the older consoles.
