Call of Duty: Black Ops III Announced for PS3 and Xbox 360

4.6
Activision just announced with a blog post that Call of Duty: Black Ops III will actually come to PS3 and Xbox 360 on top of the previously announced PC, PS4 and Xbox One versions.

Beenox and Mercenary Technology are the studios working on the old-gen ports.

There will be differences with the current generation version: the campaign co-op mode will only allow two players instead of four on PS3 and Xbox 360, while “some other features and functionality” will also not be included, as they’re built specifically for the new generation of platforms.

The upcoming beta will also be available only on PS4, Xbox One and PC.

As a bit of a punch in the gut for Wii U owners (at least the fifteen that actually care about Call of Duty, I guess), the announcement explicitly specifies that there is no version of the game planned for Nintendo’s console.

This is kind of a pain in the ass. CoD has always been a fairly easy game to run on PC, compared to other AAA titles. I would love to see better graphics on CoD on PC. If they're getting held back by consoles, at least have it being held back by current gen consoles. smh

FriskyPanda Lmao just stop. If you don't have a next gen console by now then you're slacking. They should stop production for last gen soon


How is that slacking? Some people try to get multiple jobs and are declined?

xsuperxsmashx I dont think the game will do too well sales wise, thats why they include older consoles.


I'm kinda thinking the same, but why not get rid of them and look towards the future. A lot of franchises have now.


Because they'd be giving up about half their sales. And BO3 is expected to do quite a bit better then Advanced Warfare did, especially considering the amount of people that still play BO2.

Thats good for the old gen users who still aren't able to get current gen or just dont want it.

Mickers Move on from the older consoles and focus more on improving the game for current gen users. Will never progress otherwise.


Leave us old gen alone, we have feelings :(

I still have the 360 and play it daily when i get the chance but it would be better to stick with the new gen because i have xbone as well
