Treyarch et Activision viennent de sortir un nouveau patch pour la version Xbox 360 de Call of Duty : Black Ops. Ce dernier est assez important puisqu'il ajoute le support pour le DLC « First Strike » qui arrive sur la 360 le 1er février, corrige un certain nombre de bugs et rééquilibre certains points du gameplay (notamment au niveau des armes : PSG1, AK74, RCXD et les fusils sniper munis de silencieux voient les dégats ajustés).
