Just brought my new Black Ops copy from the store today,
got home, chucked it in my PC,
Started to install through steam, which is fine,
took for minutes,
then it had to update.
"Ready to play in approximately 10 hours"
I checked the update info, and the updates are for multiplayer only, however I do not want to play multiplayer, I brought it for the single player.
Waste of time, as I cant play singleplayer because of this multiplayer update.
Anyway round this trash way of updates?
