Dead Ops Arcade - Rounds 1-40 & Boss Battle (Flawless Solo Playthrough)

This is a full playthrough of the first 40 rounds of Dead Ops Arcade, found in Call of Duty: Black Ops (2010). I completed this particular run "flawlessly," or without taking a single death. I believe there are several useful strategies that can be gleaned from this gameplay for both beginners and intermediate level players.

► What happens after round 40?
After defeating the Cosmic Silverback on round 40, the game loops over, as you are sent back to the Island arena and have the option to continue playing. While there are no new arenas, the difficulty is ramped up, as the zombies become both stronger and faster as the game progresses, along with the rounds taking longer time to complete.
