Mhm, just watched the trailer, the landscape reminded me a lot of the outdoor parts in Syndicate.

As for the rest... meh, the graphics and animations looked really shoddy, the mech looked dumb and.... that's about it. Doubt I'll get it.

FINALY THE END OF CALL OF DUTY!!!

Sorry about that, the last CoD worth buying was MW2, (which had the worlds most expensive DLC, "MW3", released at the end of last year) They copied 2142 SOOOOO badly, the design of the mech, transports is so much like 2142 PAC walkers.

remember Camp Gibraltar, Suez Canal, and all those who fought in the winters of 2142

It looks like CoD style graphics, which have never been very nice to look at (then again, neither have battlefield's barring the animations).

To be honest I think that the franchise reached its zenith in 2005 with CoD 2. Since then it has clearly become little more than a cash cow with minor cosmetic changes and ever decreasing single player game length the only ways to tell them apart.

The CoD treadmill has become emblematic of what is wrong with the gaming industry.

So has the MoH treadmill, the Halo treadmill, and the battlefield treadmill...

Don't completely agree there. Halo at least has a good story that it advances through.

From what I read, they didn't reuse the Blackops name. Mason will be playable in a 80's campaign in south america (With the surviving gang from the first Black Ops) that will parallel the 2025 campaign where you play Mason's son. So it is, in fact, a direct sequel.

I thought MW3 was one of the most disappointing games I have ever played. I loved Black Ops. And the game hates drones. Pre-order for me!

Also, when was the last time we fought the Chinese in a video game? Because this Black Ops is also set in a Cold War.

Lol I will stay on the Halo treadmill, cause I love them all so much, Halo 4 is either going to be good, or really Bad in my eyes. Battlefield I will BUY the 2143 expansion when they release it for BF3!
