Black Ops 2 features in-game livestreaming and 'Shoutcasting'
In the mode, two players can serve as Shoutcasters – otherwise known as commentators – for a multiplayer match. Though inspired by the eSports crowd, the mode is available to all. Players can shoutcast games live as they are taking place or add commentary to games saved in the Theater mode of Black Ops 2.
Delayed livestreams can be activated from the menu at any time, feeding the game to a web browser for anyone on a PC, Mac, or mobile device to watch.

LaidDwMHowiEIglesias This is why we have Youtube, I don't think this has potential.
Its for the people that can't afford all the expensive equipment. I really like the idea,just wondering how it will work. They said it is still in testing.
Yeah I'm curious as well. Pretty stoked to see it though!
as if peoples connections werent bad enough... and now while playing you're going to be using your upload speed... wonderful! more things to complain about! wouldnt be a problem if it was dedicated servers but thats never gonna happen haha

PermanentEmazing-LightsActivez-Imagine I see why they ended the commentary to the end of the BO2 multiplayer trailer.
Well that is really cool that they're doing this. The only problem is, the quality is probably going to be bad.
Maybe but it's better than nothing and it's something new that no one else has.
Yeah and i'm guessing you will be able to upload it to YouTube from theater like in MW3.
Most likely and i hope so
You were able to upload it straight to youtube from your theater? Well anyways I'm excited for this, and I think before it only allowed you to upload 30 second clips, hopefully this will be actual games.
