''Black'' takes place in Ingushetia and Chechnya, Russian Federation. The protagonist is a black ops soldier named Sergeant First Class Jack Kellar. Kellar is an inadequately disciplined member of a CIA black ops group and a veteran of several conflicts. He is now considered a terrorist and has been captured. He is now forced to tell his story (the game) or go to jail for life. | ''Black'' takes place in Ingushetia and Chechnya, Russian Federation.

But there´s a spinning bug in the "Nasran Foundry" mission . After destroying the production machines and heading back to the last area, the camera is going really wierd and it´s hard to complete the mission. I think there´s no fix for that. | ||

|Comments=Europe v02.20(10/02/2006) 2 cores set, 99% of the time at 100% speed but wasn´t fun with my old PC, this game is very demanding. Hardware mode is almost as good as Software mode, use HW mode when you´re low at FPS in SW. No speedhacks activated, because any speedhacks (and if it´s just the speedhacks tab) will freeze the game for me for what reason. If you move too quick around edges you can get stuck, the other testers already mentioned it. Another big thing in the game is the spinning bug, it happens when an enemy gets stuck at a place (like you can) and you look at his direction, the camera will go really weird. I don´t think there´s a fix for that other than kill the stuck guy. | |||

|Comments=Game runs perfectly well, full frames and no bugs 100% speed! Lmao enjoy. This was really fun. Only a few graphics glitches like some innocent flickering, don't ruin the game at all. Only early game too. Just... Disable frame limiter when you start a new game. The cutscenes are so dang long!! THEY ARE SO DANG LONG!!! I AM SERIOUS. WHY. Padding game length and DVD size?? Fuck me. Lmao | |||
