Pretty awesome track, from my experiences it gives me a real Deus Ex vibe.
Yeah MP is still big. Personally I'm not a huge fan of the zombie mode, I think the original map from W@W was sill the best zombie map. But, other people seem to enjoy it.How's the first game? MP still going strong? zombies? basically should I still pick it up?
everyone needs to stop bitching about the graphics

Probably, but I'm betting it will attract more people than it loses.I applaud Treyarch for having the guts to change up the setting but damn I don't remember COD looking this hideous.
Saleswise, I also wonder if the futuristic vibe is going put some dudebros off as well.

I honestly hope it's 60fps this time on PS3. The first Black Ops was a shame. Lower res and the framerate was rougher than previous COD games on PS3, particularly coming off of MW2.As someone who has bitched about the graphics in the past, I'm not really that upset about them in this case. I get it. They want to make it a 60fps experiences with as little hitches as possible. Now that they're trying out a new setting, in the near future, I can guess, this is obviously just a guess, that they want to try new stuff, but they don't want to invest in a new engine with new consoles likely coming out soonish.
I can respect that they're mixing some other stuff up even if they can't mix up the engine. I'm guessing if it was up to them though, they would try to make a new engine now, or with Black Ops, but hey, I can appreciate that they're still trying something different.
I know that doesn't make the game any better looking graphically, but that still makes up for some of the slack in my eyes. Even with all that said, I really don't think it even looks that bad; it looks pretty solid for a 60fps game.
Members of the Wii Community When migrating our forums from Call of Duty: Black Ops to the new site, the "Wii" section migrated with it, which should not have been the case.
To date, we have only confirmed development for the Xbox 360, PS3 and PC. We apologize for any confusion that this may have caused. Please stay tuned here for any updates.

i know, opinions, yeah.....but this looks like "shit" for you? at 60fps? for real???
are you from 2025?
i feel the urge to post that NeoGaf.gif....
I didnt say it looks like shit for 60fps. I said it looks like shit... period. Im saying 60fps isnt worth the shitty graphics, for campaign atleast. I understand the importance of 60fps in multiplayer but in campaign it seems like its not worth it considering how terrible the graphics are and considering the negative response towards the shitty graphics around the internet as a whole. It would behoove them to drop it to 30fps and make it look significantly better for the campaign.
Probably old, but... To anyone paying attention, the Wii forum for Blops 2 now says:
Honestly, it has me attracted, which is surprising because I wrote Call Of Duty off after MW2.
ok, debating over personal viewpoints and definitions is always a blocked road. so i guess it will be disgusting to hear to you that i would rate those visuals as " good" - even at 30fps.
in motion, wait, in 60fps motion they are stellar. i guess i simply prefer silkfluid gameplay over polygon geometry and texture resolution all the day.
you know what would be great? if they brought back the War gametype from World at War...
I see what you mean but even comparing 720p 60fps graphics, RAGE looks so much better. The visual image really brings down the presentation even though the framerate will be smooth. I know its a matter of opinion/preference but people all over the internet and everyone ive talked to has mentioned the poor graphics. If they dropped it to 30fps and focused a bit more on a pretty image, most people wouldnt even notice the framerate but they would definitely notice the visuals arent crappy.

I know they're two different teams but still, Black Ops was disappointing technically on PS3.

MYSTERY VOICES confirmed! Oliver North and P.W. Singer! Trailer Synopsis VIDEO
Also on that site, 80 screenshots from the trailer. I started looking through the pictures to see if I noticed anything and one thing I saw was the name "Charlene" on the QuadRotor:
Might not mean anything. Who knows. Sorry if that was mentioned already.
Amazon's pre-order numbers indicate Activsion's Call of Duty gravy train is still going full steam. Earlier today, Amazon UK told MCV that Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 pre-orders were three times higher than its predecessor, Black Ops, two years ago. We wanted to know if that anticipation crossed the pond.
"Pre-orders from day one of Black Ops 2 were more than ten times the amount of pre-orders for the first Black Ops on its first day of availability," Amazon US told Joystiq this afternoon, but that's not all the buzz.
"Black Ops 2 even out pre-ordered the first day of availability for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 by more than 30 percent. Modern Warfare 3 currently holds the record for the most pre-ordered game of all time and was amongst the top 20 pre-orders ever on Amazon.com, including books and movies."
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 went on to gross over $775 million globally in five days, flying past Call of Duty: Black Ops' $650 million record and the $550 million record before it, set by Modern Warfare 2.

I really wonder when this is going to end. It's amazing how they manage to outperform themselves year after year.http://www.joystiq.com/2012/05/03/amazon-black-ops-2-day-one-pre-orders-higher-than-black-ops-mo/

I honestly thought after MW3 the series would slowly decline in sales.
I don't see the point in preordering something half a year out personally.
My fav thing about that episode was that they used COD1 on PC and it pre-dated the mainstream explosion of the series. I felt like they spoke to me.
i liked call of duty back when it was called MOH:Allied Assault fuck all these assholes who've only been on the train since 2007
Destroyed Village 4 life.
Bububu COD fad is dying out.
BLOPS2 is on its way to shatter MW3 sales records.
Even so Activision will keep pumping out CoDs for the lesser consoles for years, I imagine.And then next year's cod will breaks this year's black ops 2 record. The only way this pattern will end is when the next gen consoles are released which will have drastically lower install base.
It likely is. MW3 sold less than Black Ops. Then again, it had poor word of mouth, so it's hard to say whether that was because of a general decline in interest in the series.I honestly thought after MW3 the series would slowly decline in sales.
Would be smart.Even so Activision will keep pumping out CoDs for the lesser consoles for years, I imagine.

i believe the deal has expired. if i remember correctly they always did 2year deals... W@W/MW2 then BO/MW3. but they'll probably announce another at e3 :/Hmmm, you guys think he is right about Xbox not getting the maps early anymore?
What were the specifics of that deal MS made? I cant for the life of me remember them now. I know MS announced them at E3.
