- Hello, and welcome to a video telling the story of Call of Duty: Black Ops. Due to the nature of Black Ops 3, and the fact that it has little to do with the story of BO1, BO2, and BO:Cold War, I'll be covering the story from BO3 in a different video. So THIS video will cover the time period of 1945 - 2025!

Something that slipped through the edit, I mention that the Soviet Union fell in 1996, when it actually collapsed in 1991… (typo in script). Read a few comments and I WILL be doing a video on the Modern Warfare Reboot, and MAYBE Zombies (but that will be coming in the future). But I’m having a week off after the two mammoth projects, Gears of War and this video!
Yay!
please do zombies story!
Harry, my boi, please do zombies. It's literally my favorite fictional story
you’re so talented! take a great rest!
100% 💯🔥
The part where Hudson puts his glasses on after finding out where the numbers station is will always be 10/10 ICONIC.
He on GOOF time
Love the callback in bo2 where he just gets shot and it cuts it off
And then the theme plays... amazing
CUBA 😎
It's so cringe yet so iconic and you can't not love it.
Hudson “Where?”
Mason “Cuba”
Hudson(puts on sunglasses and cues epic music)
this is one of the moments in gaming history
(cool guy music plays very loudly)
That gave me chills just as much as nearly every cool moment this game had
😎 (cool guy music)
I loved this scene 😭
Personally for me call of duty black opts 1 and 2 storylines were freaking fantastic in my opinion and the best campaign within all the cod games in my opinion.
We share the same opinion
@@stereokuuji thank you 😊
WAW for me, it was my first CoD on my own playstation after playing my dads PS2 for years, it's the whole gritty war thing that I like about it you'll never look at something so dirty and destroyed and still think it looks as good as the Japanese castle or some of the views of the last missions start looking at the last bunker some of the most cinematic things I've seen in a game, but for story 100% BO1 has all beat and still looks gritty dont get me wrong but I did remember guys trying to feel a leg that's gone or people looking at their own blown off limbs thinking "whered it go?" Its like why mafia 3 did well with its shooting, it felt weighty and like each bullet really just hit that guy, if they made a mafia 3/waw shooter with the story of BO1 tho, masterpiece
@@Killthefish i can agree with that
in my opinion, in my opinion is my opinion
I don’t care what anyone says, the concert for the after credits for BO2 is peak 2012 and I will accept no slander towards it.
Finally an individual with class 🙌
Finally a man with culture
PEAK 💯
Carry on will always be peak only song that can match is 115
I love that whole thing
I love that you went into the history of Vietnam and how it relates to the events in the game instead of just explaining the game's story, and the execution was engaging.
And isn't that the whole point of these three glorious games in the first place?
I also love that spoilers/twists aren't immediately revealed and the timeline is presented from the protagonists' perspectives
And now it seems that we're probably going to get a sequel to Black Ops 2 in 2025.
Yeah black ops 2 is gonna be first and then advance warfare again
Idk how much you play but some of the call of duty weapons are from advanced warfare
Well the Alex Mason hudson and Woods section in the past
Set in the Gulf War according to reports
@@GamingHarryYTreally? I thought it was in 2024 for Gulf War.
Rip my boy Swift, I spent an hour restarting checkpoints as a kid trying to save him until I realized it was scripted. Black Ops 1 had the most interesting, convoluted campaign out of every single Call of Duty iteration. Hudson is cool, Mason is a badass, and Woods? Well he’s an onion
And Resnov is a fan favorite
Bruhh what? As a kid I always thought Woods was the most badass videogame character id ever seen
@@jewellryits a line from bo cold war, “I’m a god damn onion, Mason. You of all people should know that”
@@phr33z10 lmaooo I just played through the campaigns again like last week and now that im 20 i got all the references and shit, lmaoo i feel dumb af, hadnt played cold war at all until like a couple days ago i was a bo1 and bo2 player mainly
@@phr33z10 no, no, he is "hammered shit"
WaW, Blops. and Blops 2, are my favorite of the the series, the story is dark, shrouded in mystery, and mind games while not trying to be TOO complicated.
bo not blops😂😂😂😂
I agree I liked how Black OP's series story was tied in with World at War story I love history wasn't much of a fan of Black OP's 2 but it had memories that where placed in World at War an Vietnam
only real men use “blops” and not “bo”
W
@@bgmike420it’s blops
World at war has always been on another level to me. Every Black Ops/ Zombies fan gotta give credit to it cause that's where it started and it deserves way more love than people sometimes give it.
WAW is a different level for some reason. I believe it's because it's set in actual history. Whereas BO1 and especially BO2 is semi realistic. Sure spec opps were a thing, but not to the degree that the games show. WAW is set in battles that we can actually learn about, hence sympathize with. Such as Stalingrad, Berlin, Okinawa and Peleliu, so we can research or at least sympathize with what the soldiers went through. Whereas in BO1 and 2, we can't.
@@ethanedwards422, I mean, both Black Ops 1 and 2 are set during actual wars and battles as well. In Black Ops 1 we got the Bay of Pigs Incident and the Battles of Khe Sanh and Hue during the Vietnam War. In Black Ops 2, we got the Angolan Civil War, the Russo-Afghani War, and Operation: Just Cause.
So I wouldn't say they're not set in actual history as well. There's just some... creative liberties taken when telling the story.
Literally just watched a story recap last night because I had never finished the games, literally thought while I was searching "I hope Harry has a video". This is way better than any of the others I could find.
Uh-oh, now he's got to do the call of duty zombies timeline lol
Especially since Zombies now connects to the mainline timeline
@@agentlinrov1474 Zombies lore is just a mess right now
@@Marukanitel It's very easy to navigate. There are tons of lore videos discussing this topic.
@@agentlinrov1474 I'm not saying it can be made sense of, I'm just saying the route they're going is a mess
@@agentlinrov1474 I'm not saying it can be made sense of, I'm just saying the route they're going is a mess
2 CIA guys arguing with sunglasses inside is wild
Y’all just say this now because it’s an internet thing
most CIA shit ever
Another one? So soon after Gears of Lore??? Harry, you have blessed us ☺
Also, that scene in Cold War where Reagan walks into the meeting about Perseus had some great attention to detail. Notice how Adler was quick to put out his cigarette as well as there being a jar of jelly beans on the table in front of Reagan. This is because he was quitting smoking at the time.
Deep cut
@@lucre113 What are you talking about?
@@vBUMPERv deep cut means an obscure fact or attention to detwil
@@lucre113 Oh okay. I thought you were under the assumption that I was being facetious. Thank you for the clarification 🙂

Black Ops 1 remains the peak of the entire COD series for me. I would LOVE a shiny new remake in the current engine!
Nothing will beat the shiny gold camos black ops 1 has, along with the reloading and gun sounds. Also wish they brought back wager matches, those were very fun
Same here everyone loves bo2 but bo1 hit different
Its kinda sad that in bo2 2025, technology is so much more advanced while its 2024 now and nothing has really changed since they made this game in 2012.
What bothers me more is that in the new MW trilogy, technology is also far less advanced and there is no mention of anything that could lead to BO2, despite these games being set only a few years before 2025. MW2019 is acceptable, since it was made before they decided to connect the 2 timelines via Warzone, but putting references to BO2 in MW2 and MW3 would go a long way in reinforcing the idea that they take place in the same universe.
I'm also hoping for a BO2 remaster one day, since they could fix some of the inconsistencies, like using the 2025 youtube UI and giving Jimmy Kimmel his beard.
well, some tech is probably hidden from the mass public, so idk about that, and there is a lot of tech out there so we may be closer than we know
Actually black ops 2 did predict some of it correctly. The military uses drones now. And that's all I got.
Do you mean inside from self driving cars and self landing rockets, and self repairing fabrics? Lots have changed what?
i dont know how you magically manage to upload videos when im having phases of the game at hand. like im back in my COD phase and then this vid comes out. are you a psychic LMAOO
I never bothered to watch any campaigns that came out after IW, so I didn’t know that Cold War was directly related to the OG Black Ops story, glad this video covered such a cool campaign!
Cold war was the best one since bo1 imo
@@DiobeticDailyblack ops 2 felt like a big jump in a sense but not too far off as black ops 3/4. Cold war brought back some nostalgia and went crazy with the possible story arcs. The multiplayer gameplay on bo2 was better ofc with movement and weapon customization.
@@DiobeticDailyCold War isn’t better than bo2 but it definitely is one of the best to come out since, if not the.
The Black ops franchise are my absolute favorite Call of duty games. 1,2,3, and cold war was fantastic
I agree the series was great. It just sucks black ops 3 ruined everything they had going. Campaigns used to be the focus, with multiplayer and zombies/spec ops, being feats to the campaign. Now it’s just multiplayer with everything else being put to the side.
Has it really been almost eighty years since WWII ended? Yi.
Harry, your summary is, as always, both thorough and clear. Excellent work.
You remember V day huh
@@lucre113 I remember when it was two generations away, wondering what war was like and why it always seemed to be in monochrome. I knew my grandfather was part of it and that he never wanted to talk about it. I didn't find out until after he was gone that it took his brother from him.
And now? Ancient history, known to just a handful of survivors and folks who study it.
@@anthonygranziol7957 80 years ain’t that long in the grand scheme of things tho. Gotta record history lest we lose it and are doomed to repeat it again
I always think about the same thing when going over the black ops 1 story line. Its that mason is crazy but also a one man army badass. The guy basically escapes out of russia by him self after vorkuta. Fights through multiple vietcong divisons throughout Vietnam itself. Also the most impressive feat of fighting/sneaking through rebirth island by himself to make it to steiner. Yes mason has gone crazy this point and thinks reznov is with him but he still by himself did all these things. Mason is crazy but also just a straight up super solider and I think its something everyone shoulder consider when thinking about the Call of Duty Series. In my opinion the only others who are even semi on the same level are soap and price. I always love videos about the early treyarch series because they usually harp on this fact like this one does.
This is gonna be good im downloading vid right now and will watch and listen do it 2 times over this is one of my favorite series. And you do such a great job
that ending scene in bo1 still gives me chills
The Cold War is one of the most interesting parts of history to me, and Black Ops Cold War is genuinely in my top 3 call of duty games of all time. That game completely “redeemed” Treyarch in my eyes after the failures of Black Ops 3 and 4, although I’m aware that my individual opinion matters little to nothing. I appreciate you covering this franchise, Harry. And, honestly, as far as I’m concerned, you could skip BO3 altogether
I'm a fuckin' onion mason.
Well they need to redeem themselves again after the latest games because what the fuck
Cold War is so underrated
I fucking hate BO: Cold war to an ineffable extent but I respect it for telling a good story, maybe it's time I give it another chance.
Cold war might've been boring but it wasn't that bad except multiplayer multiplayer was cancer.
Amazing, another quality video Harry! 🎉
When I need something to listen to in the background while I work or clean, I check for new videos here.
Out of all the cod campaigns i think the black ops storyline is the best.
Black ops 3 and 4* 🤮, og MW on top
@@vtxbcom___4152irrelevant boy

Oh shit, I’m here on debut! Love all your work! Keep it up!
Watching call of duty campaign videos as a history lesson
Work ain’t gonna be bad today
COD black ops was like a freaking Hollywood blockbuster when it came out. All those A list actors like Sam worthington, Gary Oldman and ed Harris. It’s uncertain if we are ever going to have another video game with this kind of weight ever again
Ps: And don’t forget Ice cube as bowman. RIP
Wow, 334k. I remember watching my first episode of lore and order and you had like 95k. Congrats mate! You’ve earned it!
The Cuba scene with Hudson will forever be in my heart 💀💀
Dawg wtf
honestly this is already one of my favorite videos you’ve ever made!! you goated bro
Awesome! One of my favorite channels is covering one of my favorite game series!
It’s amazing how fast you get these uploaded 🙏 thank you for this !
You literaly did what i've been looking for months on youtube,thank you!👀🍿
Dang my man, an hour and a half video after the massive 4 hour video. You just don’t quit. Thanks Harry!
Yet again,amazing work thank you very much for your dedicated work
Your content never disappoints Harry
I was just looking for a video exactly like this earlier today. Good looks!!
Man how are you not at one million, I watched this entire video in one sitting and I just found out about your channel through this video and I am actually interested in what you make, one thing’s for certain, you definitely got a sub from me! Keep up the great work!
Banger, my favourite channel for bedtime stories 🥰
Loving these videos man!
Well Done, Harry! Excellent work as usual.
YES. The video we needed...
Watched one of you videos last night from like a year or so ago for the first time in a while…then boom u drop! 🙏🏾😆
This was a real blast from the past for me, excellent job!
Does that mean that mason wont be in cod bo6 because woods doesn’t know that mason is still alive. So if they aren’t gonna reboot the store and instead fit it all in place, I really hope we play as woods as the main character for the campaign
Woods is in a wheelchair.
woods is in a wheelchair, and mason was confirmed KIA in canon by treyarch.
Black Ops 1 campaign is still the best story from the Call of Duty franchise. I'll never forget that twist ending. Absolutely rocked me when I was like 13 or 14. Maybe its nostalgia, but man what an awesome story.
NOW THATS WHAT WEVE BEEN WAITING FOR!🎉
Very good video.
Thanks Harry
Man, what a detailed and well put together video. Amazing work man
Outstanding video harry.
Cold War is my favorite of the CoD games so I’m super excited to see you doing videos on the storyline! Your game summary videos are my favorite❤
Amazing video man, thanks for this! I love black ops one and the whole series
Great video!
Yes sir, happy Friday! New video let's go🎉🎉🎉
i just wanna say thank you for doing this🙏
my bf is a gamer and ive never played COD or been interested in FPS games. he sent me this so i can learn the story lines
This is the best video I’ve seen talking about the BO franchise. Wow
Damn, CoD Cold War campain is so goated that they actually made a Cold War in real life 💀
I didn’t get a notification but man keep up these videos !! 🤩
I had watched your lore videos on the Outlast Trials and at the end of the first one thought “This would fit well in the Black Ops universe.” Glad to see you took interest in making a video on the Black Ops story as well. Black Ops 1 is my personal favorite Call of Duty.
Looking at the stories/campaigns alone. Job well done Treyarch. As to you Harry for your coverage.
Looking forward to more Outlast and other fascinating games to be covered.
Lets go I was looking forwards to this video
Man I do love your content.
I really love this channel of late.
I would love to see an Uncharted episode as well
best gaming channel on the platform, very high quality video as usual
Black Ops -- came for a video about Surgeons in Africa, stayed for the rundown of some video game.
NAH MAN THIS ISN'T FAIR, I WAS GONNA BE PRODUCTIVE TODAY
A game that nailed the cold war and CIA ish aesthetics perfectly was control loved your video on that
Fuck yes, Harry! Entertainment sorted for tonight, love it!
Oh wow thanks for this mate
Thanks for this, it was fantastic!! I always loved the story of BO's
this is basically a history lesson.
Except there was no Perseus. Look up the execution of Julius and Ethel Rosenberg, if you wanna know how the Soviets got nukes.
The best thing black ops has given us is the cold war poster with both soldiers
BO1 guy goes harder
For some reason Hudson is the russian soldier
Yessss I can’t wait for this video!!!!!! Hope it’s really good
Oh damn a Call Of Duty vid from you? Hell yeah
u are a beast!!
Bro. I remember being like 6 or 7 and my friend was trying to explain to me that Reznov died once Mason escaped Vorkuta. It was basically my childhood version of learning Santa wasn't real
Wait, Santa isn’t real?
the fact that the buttons for choking dragovich out is the stick clicks is just to make you feel like youre choking him out personally and i love that
I now watch gaming Harry daily ❤.... Big fan from zambia 🇿🇲 👏
Harry never miss.
Greetings Harry 🐕
Love the series overviews
I'm always watching your videos from Korea respect 💯
ive played every one of these campaigns multiple times through and yet i still find myself watching. Love this series
My God, the _Black Ops_ trilogy (_BO1, BO2, BOCE_) are not only outstanding video games, but are also incredible storytelling devices in general. To be a 16 year old with nothing more than a PS3 and a copy of _Black Ops…_ those times were special. There was so much hype around the release, that the lines at GameStop made a headline on my local Texas town’s CBS evening news.
A great video, sir. Well done. This is very enjoyable and digestible.
heavens to betsy this must have taken freakin forever bro! thank u for the upload i love the cod / zombies stories
Also harry I love you you’re the best !🎉
Saying that is wild 😂😂😂.. you do not know this guy
Amazing video!
Right after the gears of war vid? Damn man
This is something new and I’m here for it
Very well done video, awesome
Oh man, hearing you go over the Zombies timeline(s) would be AMAZING!
Very well made video!
22:53 i've always thought even since i was a kid that it was funny you could look down and see mason's chin. its so weird lmaooo
With 6 now on the horizon i can't wait to see your videos on the lore.
Ayyy first.
Thanks again for another amazing vid gaming Harry! Always makes the week better.
"There is no truth. Only who you choose to believe" that line is too real
