We'll probably have some sort of robot enemy in the zombie mode.

Oh, and more info has been released. http://callofduty.wikia.com/wiki/User_blog:KATANAGOD/Call_of_Duty:_Black_Ops_II_In-Depth_Preview

So... a game about unmanned drones, aircraft and such?

I expect it to look all moral choice and political-ish, but then surprise everyone by being just another fun shooter.

Ah well, at least I have this

I think I'll get it, or at least rent it first and see how I like it. The premise is certainly interesting.

Reading the new features, it sounds like they're trying some legitimate new stuff this time around.

Sounds interesting.

Okay they have got me interested this time. I was surely expecting a sequel fully set in the proper cold war again, rather than this.

Still it will take a lot for me to buy it again this year, Modern Warfare 3 is doing fine by me anyhow.

Maybe I'm being too positive and optimistic, it being a COD game, but the storyline branching does seem a bit interesting....

If they do something fresh with the multiplayer...hopefully improve the melee system...

I have yet to see a corner of the internet that hasn't been reduced to a load of people fapping over how "OMG EXPLOSIONS AND ROBOTS ARE AWSUM LOL".
The Internet is a really big place, so I would never ever believe this assertion.

...OK, I'm not terribly familiar with former American political scandals so I have to ask: is this THE Oliver North?

EDIT: Yup, sure is.

...no comment.

You know,I've been one of the most ardent anti-COD gamers out there. However, I must admit: This has piqued my interest. It's not a copy-paste of COD 4 or W@W. They're genuinely bringing something new to the table.

It may not look like COD as we know it, but who said that was a bad thing? Maybe this is the start of something new. Maybe.

There is hope for COD, now. Only time will tell.

So does this definitely means that MW takes place in an other universe then Blops?

Not necessarily, the modern portion of BL2 takes place in 2025.

At the very least it was ambiguous, though I think with Blops they kinda made their canon their own. Up until I played it I kinda thought that maybe Zakhiev would turn out to be Reznov's protege.

So I have been talking to other people about the new trailer, and the reaction has been mixed, ranging from "OMG this looks amazing" to "Call Of Duty has jumped the shark". I am part of the former, but yeah, I do see some of the complaints.

As for Woods coming back, hey if Price returned in MW 2 after he was supposedly killed in COD 4, than what is so different here?

P.S.: You know, considering that this franchise is so popular, and has, like, almost every gamer on gaming sites hating on it, I'm beginning to think that Call Of Duty is to video games what Naruto is for anime, Justin Bieber is for music, Twilight is for literature, American Idol is for live action television, and Michael Bay is for movies. tongue

Granted, this series is of much higher quality than some of the ones I have mentioned, but my point still stands.

You know, Woods being alive and X being a trap may not be mutually exclusive. Half-Truths work as well.

Besides wondering how they'll make up after Operation Charybdis, I wonder which proxy wars they'll be in.

Yeah, Co D is at least better than Naruto, Twilight, Idol, and Bieber.

Eh, from what I've seen of the Naruto games it's not all that bad.
