I am loving this game. This backward and forward of time is cool. Story seems nice. Gameplay very good. Surrounding audio is nice too. But I am kinda confused how the missions are appearing. Just stepped into Lahore mission.
Oh, graphics is good. But BF 3 is still better and forget about comparing it with Crysis. Optimisation was always good in COD series, this one included. At max settings still getting 60 FPS!

COD Black Ops 2 makes $500 million in 24 hrs. :shock:

Beats last years MW3 by a long way and is the biggest entertainment launch of all time. At this rate, it could beat "AVATAR" in terms of overall revenue.

CoD: Black Ops II Breaks $500 Million Mark in One Day

@ cyborg47

Please stay on topic mate. It wasn't pointed at you or anyone else.
And stop making retarded comments. They make no sense in this context.

If you have negative thoughts about black ops 2, put them into proper perspective and justify them using sane words. If you can't, keep them to yourself.

Eih? Whats wrong with a little comparison? I can't compare it to jb when u can compare it to avatar? The avatar comparison is equally retarded in that way isnt it? And why is it so hard to understand the meaning of this '/s' :facepalm:

^^ Jb is a person or a living soul whereas black ops 2 and avatar are not. They are interactive content related to entertainment. You can compare gaming titles with movies these days because both brings engrossing storytelling to the picture ( not only black ops 2 but all great games out there). The context you put was completely different and meaningless.

And who exactly would you appreciate if you like Black Ops 2 or Avatar? the game, like it made itself out of nothing? or the people at Treyarch and James Cameron? Same goes with JB(I hate him btw, the earlier comment was meant to be a sarcastic joke on BO2's popularity comparison to something amazing like Avatar, what an insult.) people like him because they like his work, simple. I can go ahead and make a comparison to Avengers as well, just because dumb things are popular doesn't mean they're great or a work of art :|

Black Ops 2 is interactive content. Avatar isn't, you aren't in control of whatever that happens on the screen.

Agreed, but not in case of Call of Duty, good for you if you enjoy it, but there are tons of games out there that are longer than 6 hours and have stories that are light years better.


The context you put was completely different and meaningless.

Not really, the avatar comparison is based on popularity/money, and so is the JB comparison. Unfortunately, the Avatar comparison was actually made by Activision themselves, one of the stupidest things they said in the recent times. And now it becomes okay to compare a game's popularity to a movie because Activision said so? :|
Avatar isn't a rehashed entertainment piece, and here's another joke, Avatar can be played/seen/enjoyed on a PS3 or a PC unlike BO2 which only works properly on X360 whereas the rest of the consumers are made to look like idiots and forced to wait for patches until the game works properly. A million dollar franchise has difficulty in making a decent game for PS3, everybody pays the same amount of money, why do they have to get an inferior version?

No, as I am not a fan of COD (or anything for that matter) this is a good game. It doesn't matter if it sells or not, this one will set a new standard for COD series and some others as well. But yeah, if it were a poor one it'd sell anyway, but when the game is nice who cares about it!

Set a new standard for COD series and some others as well.

In what way? every single aspect of CoD has been done already, even before the COD1's release. I don't see the game settings standards, but only following what works. Cinematic experience? bought into games by Spielberg's Medal of Honor, fast paced mechanics- look for ID software's games, addictive multiplayer- ID software's games again, a super optimized engine-ID agian lol..the list can go on.
But I do see Activision setting standards in the publishing side though, yearly releases, charging for crap like Elite(before BO2), overpriced and rehashed map packs, over aggressive marketing..all these have definitely plagued a lot of games.

Oh really?? Well tell me an FPS shooter that has a branching storyline in which your actions ultimately decide the outcome. Do you have anything like this from id or spielberg's MOH??

Talk about the recent MOH, its total piece of sh!t with its lackluster storyline. If you haven't tried, don't be a biased critic.

We all know that doom set all the standards how fps titles feel and play. But the way you are putting everything makes little sense.

I can add some.
Shitty PC port - Treyach:twisted:

No abhishek this isn't a pc port like previous games. Its a standalone dx11 title.
Not in the league of battlefield 3 but its a looker.

Agreed, but not in case of Call of Duty, good for you if you enjoy it, but there are tons of games out there that are longer than 6 hours and have stories that are light years better.

I don't think you can name a military shooter having a better storyline than the COD series. I don't even think BF3 comes close in this aspect.
Even BF3 had cinematic sequences where similarities can be drawn with COD. But that does not make it a bad title does it?
You are overreacting.

Non linearity in video games existed since 80's, not interested in giving you a list now, and it doesn't matter if its an FPS or TPS/RPG or whatever..branching stories in games is nothing new, period. I guess Activision's marketing worked really well on you. "Look everybody, we have a branching story line, the first of its kind wooooo!" But I do appreciate Treyarch for atleast adding something like this in a call of duty game...but you have to admit, even if it was a linear campaign, the game would have still got 9s every where, and MW3 is a perfect example for that, shows how messed up the reviewers are.

This is what happens when you read everything in a linear way, let me quote my comment again..
Cinematic experience- bought into games by Spielberg's Medal of Honor, fast paced mechanics- look for ID software's games, addictive multiplayer- ID software's games again, a super optimized engine-ID agian
So where did I say that MoH or the ID software's games have branching story lines? What I meant with that comment was that whatever COD is doing now has already been done a lot of times regardless of the genre, there's nothing really 'new' that Treyarch or IW did with COD.

Talk about the recent MOH, its total piece of sh!t with its lackluster storyline. If you haven't tried, don't be a biased critic.
Okay now where did this come from? Did I even mention the recent MoH? :|

We all know that doom set all the standards how fps titles feel and play.
It was about fast paced multiplayer, and I was talking about Quake.


But the way you are putting everything makes little sense.
Tell me how, and I'll happily try and make sense.

No abhishek this isn't a pc port like previous games. Its a standalone dx11 title.
Not in the league of battlefield 3 but its a looker.
Its a PC port with DX11, more like tacked on and a marketing thing, nobody knows how much of the dx11 will be used in the game or what its performance going to be like. Though I'll be happy for the PC cod players if the game's connectivity and DX11 features work :)

And what about the PS3 version? People are already complaining about the connectivity issues just like they did for Blops1. And the obvious inferiority of the graphics in the PS3 version..blurred out textures, AA issues, etc whereas the x360 version works flawlessly.

I don't think you can name a military shooter having a better storyline than the COD series.
That is subjective, I guess its way too easy to convince the CoD fans about the story. Give it a transformers style presentation with an average story, and CoD fans will be going gaga over it. They've always been too pretentious.

I don't even think BF3 comes close in this aspect. Even BF3 had cinematic sequences where similarities can be drawn with COD. But that does not make it a bad title does it?
off topic again.

Well I am not going deep but game was giving PC and PS3 gamers problems when launched. I am not following the game so don't know if they have been rectified or not, but seriously, can't they make a game without bugs and glitches.:|
