But as we all know, PC gamers can use the amazing SweetFX Shader Suite tool to overhaul a game’s visuals, and you seriously won’t believe how good Black Ops 2 modded can look on the PC."
GTA 5 and Red Dead Redemption 2 leap up due to summer sales
Wow, good games never get old I guess.
CoD will always be a beast of a franchise, and how awesome is it that you can just boot it up or pop it into your Xbox and play, MS BC is really a neat feature.
Many players on social media are now reporting unannounced matchmaking fixes have been put in place by Activision ranging from Call of Duty 3 to Modern Warfare 2 to Black Ops 2, on Xbox 360. Players are reporting that player counts are updating, lobbies forming, and matchmaking times have been reduced. Neither Activision nor Microsoft have commented on the matter when reached out to at this time. This is currently impacting both 360 and BC versions of the games. PS3 is not affected at this time.

Multiple users coming forward saying the games are finally working again after years of server issues. Note that not all issues such as player counts are totally fixed at this time however matchmaking is fully working again. With legacy Call of Duty games releasing on Game Pass within the next 2 years, it does make sense for these servers to eventually be corrected. Good to see the preservation of these legendary games. Hopefully PS3 receives the same treatment for these legacy titles!

Imagine that.
Conspiracy theory: MS have been planning on purchasing ABK for a long time. They let Sony outbid them for having console-exclusive CoD stuff/being first for certain dlc so the PlayStation player base would increase.
Years later, MS buy ABK, with plans to make CoD either exclusive/platform exclusive features etc with the release of a new console (Xbox Series X2?) So the established CoD player base migrates over to their platform, taking a huge percentage off Sony?
Wild theory
Game Rant Writes "Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 has been available for 10 years, and in that time, no other entry has topped its weapon balance and variety."
Although Black Ops 2 is one of the more loved entries in the series, there seemed to be an overall lack of recoil when I played back in the day, which made the guns feel toy-like. The overall art style didnt really sit well with me at the time either. A bit too cartoony. I think zombies could have been cool, but on the PS3, playing splitscreen made the frame rate drop to unplayable levels.
they can sell millions of copies of Call Of Duty but when can they change the engine? even if you are a cod hater you have to admit it does looks better.but every cod its just a little upgrades here and there.
Black ops 2 does look pretty good, on console at least. I havent played it on PC, but i would say that aside from scale it looks as good, or better than BF3 on console which is a nice accomplishment. But its not a crysis 2 ;P
A few more raindrops, increased brightness(which made the grainy filter of the game worse), and more water puddles.
Jaggies are still present, textures are the same, and the game still runs at 60FPS.
Not to be a **** about it, but if you are going to mod something, make some original content, because just about anyone can change game settings.
Looks like the sharpening filter effect on Adobe packages
Looks worse than original
I think it just makes the whole screen look a little more "harsh" too much reflection and light in some places and rain looks like a bunch of needles coming down at you.
