Call of Duty: Black Ops II
Released this past November, Black Ops II is the latest game in the never ending series that is Call of Duty. The ad campaign for this game was ridiculous. The commercials showed actors, comedians, and other famous people shooting at each other because war is funny I guess. This game takes us almost 15 years into the future. Modern Warfare is no longer Modern Warfare, we are now in Future Warfare. This game did a lot of fun things to put some life back into the series. The inclusion of futuristic weapons was cool as you can only shoot an AK-47 so many times before it becomes old hat. The story also wasnt as convoluted as the first Black Ops either. Zombie mode this time out kinda sucked. I didnt like the Dead Transit story mode. Also, this was the third time they busted out Zombies so it too, is getting dated. If Treyarch wanted to make an all zombies game, similar to Left 4 Dead, Id buy it in an undead heartbeat. Sadly, it keeps getting tacked on to Call of Duty. Black Ops II also had some controversy surrounding it after developers shut down the advertised Nuke Town 2025 24/7 lobby which left many gamers having their parents write angry letters to developers (I assume this happened). I wasnt bothered by this because I AM AN ADULT AND HAVE OTHER THINGS TO WORRY ABOUT RATHER THAN COMPLAINING ABOUT A PLACE CALLED NUKETOWN. What It Says About You This will be your favorite Call of Duty game of all time. Until the next one comes out. The only reason Call of Duty games keep getting made is because people keep buying them. If you would like someone to make something besides FPS, by all means, support another series. If no one buys Call of Duty or the numbers suffer, things might change. Please, help us change the gaming landscape. Or you know, dont and we can play Modern Warfare 23: Snake Eater or whatever. In conclusion, I hope you enjoyed the ranting of a crazy man forced to comprehend just how many Call of Duty games there really are. I think I might submit this as my Masters Thesis so I can get my PhD in psychology. I dont want to brag, but I think I nailed it.
