Annualized series have a tendency to grow long in the tooth, and many gamers argue that Call of Duty has passed its prime, but the critics stand by developer Treyarch's efforts in the series' latest entry, applauding a dynamic campaign which encourages replayability and a multiplayer mode that features new additions that just make sense.
Aside from Black Ops 2, Activision is releasing two other titles on the Wii U Launch day. Those titles are Wipeout 3 and Transformers Prime.
Call of Duty Black Ops 2 developer Treyarch has announced the inclusion of the Nuketown Zombies map in the game's season pass, which is priced at 4000 Microsoft Points.
In a leak that will likely surprise no one, Call of Duty Modern Warfare 4 is reportedly currently in development. IGN reports that voice actor Bill Murray, the pipes behind the franchise's recurring character Captain Price, let slip to This is Xbox the following statement: "Yeah, on Monday I am off to meet Infinity Ward about the next game, Modern Warfare 4. I'm doing work on the sequel to Modern Warfare 3, it carries straight on and I only ever appear in the Modern Warfare games."
When Black Ops II launches for the Wii U on November 18, the series' Elite service will not be supported by Nintendo's console, an Activision representative told Kotaku.
Zombies mode, a hallmark of every Treyarch-developed Call of Duty game, will make a triumphant return in Black Ops 2 when the blockbuster launches on November 13 for Xbox 360 and PS3, and November 18 for Wii U.
Black Ops 2 is just around the corner, and while the franchise is known for its adrenaline inducing single player experiences, many gamers dive straight into the multiplayer mode and never leave.
When World of Warcraft: Mists of Pandaria officially launches Tuesday, September 24, fans will be free to roam an entirely new continent populated with a number of fresh zones, scenarios, battlegrounds, dungeons, and raids.
