[CoD Black Ops 2] News and Discussion

Bit too early for this to be stickied for the time being but there have been whispers about the game, codename - Ironwolf for little while now and now Activision has purchased the domain blackops2.com.

Activision prepping for Black Ops 2

Activision has purchased blackops2.com, suggesting that a sequel to Call of Duty: Black Ops could be in the works. The publisher previously purchased domains up to Black Ops 6, with 2 being noticeably absent from the list, but that domain has now joined Activision's collection.

According to a report by Fusible, the domain is owned by MarkMonitor, an "internet brand protection company" that "caters to over half the Fortune 100, of which Activision is a client." The domain's WhoIs data shows that it was last updated on January 6th.

This could be as simple as Activision protecting its copyright by grabbing the domain early, but considering that Black Ops sold over 14 million copies, a sequel is certainly not out of the question. A recent job listing suggests that a Call of Duty game is in active development, though we don't know if it will be Black Ops 2 or something different entirely.

Black Ops 2 can only be considered a rumor for now, but we've reached out to Activision and will update with any comment we receive.

What are the chances it will be on a new console since Microsoft and Sony are supposedly revealing the 720?/PS4 @ E3 this year.

Just dont f*** it up again again. And again. Whatever.

Slim i'd imagine. Don't think PS4/xbox3 will be out until at least Q4 2013. Would imagine there will be at least 2 more CoD's this generation with the 2nd probably being released on the new consoles aswel..

Still don't think COD has reached it's peak. I know a lot of you, particularly those staring from COD4 are consistently dissappointed but the franchise seems to be growing in popularity at each release (going by sales figures). The hatred for the series is growing too however.
I prefer the IW games I don't know why I just do but am looking forward to blops2 even though the first one eventually crushed my soul.

So long as Floyd P gets a copy of this I'll be happy..

I miss his "stream-of consciousness" type ramblings intermixed with copious statistics..

To me Iron Wolf sounds like a WW2 game where the main character is Russian. But that's just a pure guess.
