Here's a little preview of how you'll go about creating your classes in Call of Duty: Black Ops. Nothing really exciting here except for the fact that you can purchase different things using CoD Points. I'm sure things will also be available as you level up, but the CoD Points just add for another layer to the whole thing. I did notice that the "noob tube" or Grenade Launcher attachment is still there for those that despise the attachment.
In the last post I briefly mentioned the Wager Match mode in Call of Duty: Black Ops, well here's the video trailer for it so you can get a better idea of what it is. I seriously think this sounds awesome and can't wait to get my hands on it.

Kotaku has a really nice write up of their time with the Call of Duty: Black Ops multiplayer so head over there to give it a read. I wasn't at the event last night to witness the game first hand so I didn't want to try and just summarize what they wrote because I wouldn't do it justice, but I figured the least I could do is post up the killstreak rewards and the perks that you'll be able to unlock while playing Black Ops online. I also want to say that after reading Kotaku's write up I am even more excited for this game. The Wager Match game mode sounds pretty sweet, a bunch of specific specialty game modes that allow you to wager "CoD Points" that you can then use to buy guns and perks and stuff.
Anyways, enough with my random babbling about what I read over at Kotaku, here are the perks and killstreak rewards... and thankfully there no Commando, there is a marathon, but it just gives you longer sprint which doesn't necessarily mean unlimited sprint (but I guess it could).
