How about you don't decide whether to support it or not until you've seen some gameplay? Sound logical?
Should we support black ops 2?

Some CoD "fanboys" (I hate that term for anyone) are morons, as show the demographics for fans of each game series; it's mostly the loud mouth douché-nozzles who get heard.
Treyarch managed to create the best CoD going, since IW got dismembered, post-CoD4. MW2 was total crap in the end and so was MW3 (opinions people), but BO was relatively balanced with a good campaign.
Problem was I got ridiculously bored of CoD shortly after BO came out, full stop (period).
Treyarch are now (sort of) good developers, and the replacement IW are bad. 5 years ago this was not the case, but that was the past and this is the present. Activision fucked a lot up for me by making a Fifa out of CoD, and I only buy a Fifa game every 5 years or so.
I've lost my pent up hatred for the CoD series now, and I just sigh when I see it. I bet it will be a good, fun game for those getting it but I really couldn't care less if it came with real bells and whistles and an Audi A7 S (okay, maybe I would for THAT).
So "Should we support Black Ops 2", well you can - I'm not going to stop you and I'm sure Treyarch deserve it, but Activision? Pfft. In either case I am just simply not interested, so as an individual...
"Frankly my dear, I don't give a damn."

Some celebirty says a game looks good (though I will be the first to admit the graphics don't look impressive at all) and it makes it look bad?

OP, protip: don't ask a question about CoD on the escapist and expect balanced responses. Everyone's basically of the opinion that the franchise has undergone an exponential decay in innovation since Modern Warfare came out, and has no reason to exist except as a money printer.
To be fair though, Treyarch has taken a bit of a risk this time and will potentially alienate some of its fanbase with Call of Duty 2142. Perhaps they've done this in an attempt to truly change the game for the first time in years. Or, of course, maybe they've done this as a gimmicky diversion to make people less critical of the cloning that's gone on in recent years. I'm going to go with the former and hope that Activision has loosened the vice on Treyarch's balls and something interesting will come of the game.

Celebrity =/= good or smart. She is dumb as a rock and makes a shit load stupid decisions like its her primary function (though I will also admit the only thing I know about her is that whole marriage scandal thing) but with how America is, she counts as a celebrity.GethBall said:Celebrity?

I'll give my honest opinion of this game when a trailer with, you know, ACTUAL gameplay comes out. It's just like when Modern Warfare 3's multiplayer trailer came out (you know the one that showed how they'll be perks in the game, I don't know something like that I never played the multiplayer) all the COD fans ate that crap up like I'm sure their eating this crap up too. Once they show us a trailer of the gameplay and I see for myself it's just you shooting the same generic looking bad guys than I'll give my opinion but until then I'll just quietly sit back and watch as COD fans eat this game up and play the same generic multiplayer now for what is it? The fourth or fifth time in a row?
I actually just started to follow these games when Modern Warfare 1 came out. Before that, the COD 1, 2 and 3 always seemed like Medal of Honor clones to me and after that Medal of Honor became a clone of COD....oh the irony...it never stops...shrekfan246 said:
It looks like they are moving in an interesting direction with singleplayer. But I will wait to decide until we see multiplayer details
It's just the latest COD with a new coat of paint and a story involving the end of the world through militaristic dominance. The trailer is specifically flashy to make you think you get to do new stuff when in reality you don't. That horse riding part yea? APC/AC130/Jeep rail shooter. Though it may be like the helicopter portion of Black Ops but would end up being go straight and follow everyone else.
Also how is this related to Black Ops at all? Looks more like Modern Modern Warfare three but now with Robots. I'll get it when it hits half price. [sub]Oh silly me its a COD game, I'd have to wait till I was 90 before it even hits 75% of the originl price but when I'm 80 I might be able to get MW3 at 50% of the price... when the servers would have been officially taken down
