You guys ever heard of this game “Call of Duty”? I heard from a guy that it’s kinda good. Turns out they are doing another one and it’s coming out soon! We sent out Mike Dunn from Gaming Trend to check it out and he confirms that it’s good enough that now that he’s home he’s kinda itching for the game since it’s not out yet. Guess that’s a good sign as Mike’s not really a hardcore fan of the series. Chuckles aside, we’ve got an announcement on the Nuketown 2025 map and the season pass program. In addition, they have a pre-order goodie for those who pull the trigger in advance. Check it out:
Fans looking to pick-up the Call of Duty®: Black Ops II season of downloadable content (DLC) coming in 2013 can pre-order the Call of Duty®: Black Ops II DLC Season Pass – available for a suggested retail price of $49.99 for the Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft, PlayStation®3 computer entertainment system and Windows PC via Steam download*.
In addition to obtaining all four epic Call of Duty®: Black Ops II DLC Map Packs for a discounted price, fans that pre-order the Call of Duty®: Black Ops II DLC Season Pass will also receive a Call of Duty®: Black Ops II in-game Calling Card. This unique Calling Card cannot be unlocked with in-game achievements, and is a great way for hardcore Call of Duty gamers to show off their player name, emblem, clan tag and ranking in Call of Duty®: Black Ops II multiplayer.
From the early preview stuff I’ve seen and the info I’ve read, this sounds like it could be the best Call of Duty title yet, and I don’t say that lightly. Activision mentions that they are still working with Nintendo to see how they can offer a similar program for the Wii U – good news if they get it done, a harbinger of things to come if they can’t. Stay tuned on that front.
If you live in a cave somewhere you don’t know this, but the rest of us are well aware that Call of Duty: Black Ops II ships on November 13th. You might want to stay tuned around here…there could be some give-aways. Yea…it’s awesome like that. Enjoy the video on Nuketown 2025.
