Black Ops 2 breaks GameStop pre-order record
Company president Tony Bartel said today: "Consumer anticipation for Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 is tremendous. We are seeing the highest pre-orders in history.
"With its current pace, this Call of Duty is on track to break records and is likely to be our biggest game launch of all time."
Last year's Call of Duty game, Modern Warfare 3 recorded "the biggest entertainment launch ever" with an estimated sell-through of more than $400 million and more than 6.5 million units in the US and UK alone in its first 24 hours of availability, according to publisher Activision.
Bartel's comments were delivered as Activision announced that it has reworked its Call of Duty Elite service, which will no longer feature separate premium and free tiers. Instead, all service features will now be free to all, with additional game content to be delivered in four separate packages, which are available to pre-purchase with the Black Ops 2 DLC Season Pass.
Activision has confirmed a Black Ops 2 release date of November 13.

It's someone's time of the month...
But on a real note, I had expected it to break records, just as the first black ops did.

I'm glad Treyarch learned from Infinity Ward's mistakes. MW3 brought a lot of hate on the franchise. Almost every Call of Duty does, it seems, but MW3 seemed like it got the most hate so far.
Black ops 2 is looking like a great game.

L33t-Ninja-Much for some reason this suprises me because so many people hated black ops and im suprised this broke sales
its all about trial and error, if one game fails they are going to do what ever it takes for the next game to be better. Black ops 2 might be another failure if there is as much hitmarkers as there was in BO

This doesn't surprise me at all.... I loved black ops's multiplayer I personally think it was the best out of all of them so far plus zombies was a huge plus to the side and a lot of fun at that. Hopefully the multiplayer is just as good and zombies will become even more fun this time around I can't wait to try the new game mode.
