Black Ops 2 'on track for record sales' - analyst

4.5
Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 is on track to achieve record sales, according to Cowen & Company analyst Doug Creutz.

He said in a research note: "Post-holiday sales trends for BO2 have been significantly better than those for last year's Modern Warfare 3, and we expect BO2 to slightly beat the previous franchise high watermark of the original Black Ops on the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 platforms across its life cycle."
Activision claimed in December that Black Ops 2 grossed $1 billion worldwide in its first 15 days of availability, a milestone reached 24 hours faster than 2011's Modern Warfare 3.

The shooter went on to be the best-selling game of last year in both the UK and the US

Activision social media manager Dan Amrich said last week that he expects 2013's entry in the Call of Duty series, which is rumoured to Modern Warfare 4, to be revealed no later than E3 in early June.

Azare BO2 wasn't close to a letdown, it was successful, and really good. League play was the only thing that could of used some improvement.


I wasn't too fond of the game. Played it for a month or two, then got bored of it. It's the same thing over and over again. Decent campaign though... but I have seen better.


I feel the same way. If they made another new gun with the recent map pack i would probably play it more. When the peacekeeper came out i was really excited for it.

League Play was rushed, I hope it returns in "Ghosts" with many improvements.
