Is anybody actually surprised? Oh, sorry, I’m getting ahead of my self. Amazon revealed via their dedicated Black Ops 2 Twitter sub account that Activision’s next Call of Duty game has broken records by becoming their most pre-ordered game ever! “Black Ops II broke records and is now our most pre-ordered game ever! Pre-order to get Nuketown 2025 Bonus Map,” they happily proclaimed to all who would listen.

Is anybody actually surprised?

However, it does once again prove that the keyboard warrior on Youtube are wrong as they argue that everybody hates Call of Duty. If everybody hates, how come each game always sells more than the last one? My other favorite argument is that “Real” gamers don’t play it. Ah, Internet, you so funny.

Anyway, in case you didn’t realise, Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 is going to be released this week. Will it be the best Call of Duty since the original Black Ops? Will it be even better than the first Modern Warfare? Or *gasp* better than Call of Duty 2? Or do you think it’s going to be good, but still more of the same. Or you just hate it or don’t give a rats read-end? Regardless, it’s going to sell a tonne, although sadly Amazon didn’t reveal the exact amount of pre-orders they’ve gotten.
