Will an enriched storyline over the need for new console hardware win for Call of Duty: Black Ops II

The hardware is a just a few years short of a decade now, with Smartphones and iPads almost as strong how can Activision promise the “most ambitious Call of Duty ever”?

Loyal fans will stick with the franchise, lets hope next year some new hardware is brought into the campaign budget.

Well I'm sure if Sony and Micro were releasing new hardware Activision would be one of the first told. A Call of Duty on a new system is a killer.

The hardware isn't holding Call of Duty back nearly as much as Activision is holding it back. Old-ass engines, plastic-y sounding weapons, poor map designs, no dedicated servers... these are things that can/could have been rectified this generation on ACTIVISION'S end, and they've... done something else.

don't blame the consoles for CoD, blame actvision. and don't bother shoehorning in a decent story to an arcade shooter

While i appreciate the gesture.... all of these retro classics have been made available everywhere else. I am hoping to see some other Activision properties make their way out of the shackles of the 5th, 6th and 7th gen. Licensing be damned... bring back the Transformers Cybertron games.

Love the Cybertron games! TF games have been shit lately. Would love to see that era revisited. I even did the multiplayer!

MrBaskerville29d ago

We can´t catch a freaking break from awesome games arriving all the time!!!

It’s a HELL of a game. If you like JRPGs in the family of Persona, you will be in heaven… that is until you hear the various battle music…. then you’ll be somewhere BEYOND heaven!

Just finished Clair Obscur. This should be fun.
