| Lovin blops 2. Really am. The whole game has a cool ambiance that mw can't really match. Some of the music reminds me of mass effect and really hits the future vibe. kind of laggy though and this weekend I never got double XP, but what are you gonna do? Not like Activision can afford to fix it... |

| Surprised that its only the 4th biggest ever launch. Maybe people have FINALLY cottoned on that its the same every year and people are tiring of cod. Personally it's the first cod I haven't bought, and from the reviews, I'm glad I didn't. |

| Campaign was alright I guess, even if it was a bit "MURRRIICCAAAA". Online is still average to shit. Graphics haven't been improved which is why I no longer own my Black Ops 2 disc. |

Come on Arsenal!!! :D
Blops 2 is v.similar to the previous ones, but some of the innovations are welcome. The franchise could do with missing next year and having a massive overhaul though. |

| It might be the 4th biggest, but it was beaten by MW2, MW3 and BlOps 1. CoD sales slowing down? Maybe they'll think twice before pumping out a new one in 12 months. Can only hope so! |

| Heard a lot of negative reviews about 'Blops II' (rediculous name) from a lot of 'Hardcore CoD fans', that's enough to make me not buy it, Halo 4 has got me gripped and I'm not putting it down anytime soon. The amount of pre-owned copies of Black Ops II appearing in the local Game shop is hilarious as well. Halo deserves top spot! |

My online CoD time
CoD 4 - 32 Days
CoD WaW - 17 Days
CoD Mw2 - 6 Days
CoD Black Ops - 4 Days
CoD Mw3 - 1 Day
CoD Black Ops 2 - 6 Hours
I'm seeing a pattern. Traded in Black Ops 2 today, picked up The Witcher 2. Now thats a sequel! |

@10 it took until 2012 for someone to say that I would have it would have come sooner but finally somebody said it.
My points is the majority of its sales are kids the age of 12-14 who get their mums to buy for them while they are at school then they come and start playing black ops 2, and the reason they really want that is to as @10 said 'look cool' and you know what I agree. In addition I bet you every penny I have if the mums were not buying it the uk sales for call of duty games would be down a percentage of at least 20-25% (Roughly) |

@3: Yeah Jack Wall handled most of the soundtrack for Black Ops II and Mass Effect 1 & 2, that'll be why.
Looking forward to Black Ops II when I pick it up, Treyarch seem to have an 'anything goes' mentality to what they stuff into these COD games (Silverback gorilla, nixon and JFK fighting zombies, zipline window breach, shooting a shuttle out of the sky, etc.) compared to Infinity Ward who seem to be the ones playing it safe. |

Black ops 2 is brilliant, not perfect but still brilliant. Halo 4 is doing well considering its only on 1 console.. i bet if black ops 2 was 360 only Halo would of beaten it.
they both deserve top spots anyway so no complaints from me |

@31 that's like saying if someone on the xfactor can't sing but the audience like them they deserve to win, yet the ones who can sing don't get the vote and lose even though they should win.
Don't watch the program myself but thought it made a good point. |

Same. I was hoping for so much more, turns out it was just much more of the same.
Traded it in for Halo 4. I'm not a fanboy of either series but Halo 4 pisses all over Black Ops II in pretty much every department. |

| I'm actually enjoying call of booty. it is what it is. Still have to complete ac3 and get some more done in borderlands 2 but cod is not a bad game. Just can't stand the music. it sounds like something straigh out of N+ or Tetris. I prefer the missions set in the 80's to the ones set in 2025. the futuristic stuff doesn't do it for me but the game is good all in all. |

On topic, this is no surprise what so ever, CoD sells, end of story, people just buy it without realizing they can buy 'essentially the same game' much cheaper, considering most buy it for the multiplayer. |

Casual gamers have the biggest say in charts so it doesn't surprise me that CoD is top. I hate CoD also but jeez some people are pretty pathetic about it being top, get over it, my fav games never make the top spot and you don't see me complaining.
Unless casual gamers open their eyes and take notice of games that are not advertised then nothing will change. |

| The lack of substantial innovation is why it doesn't deserve the top spot. They just keep polishing the same game modes. Sure, it's fun, but they are not doing anything different. If you don't see that, then you are voluntarily blind to what you are playing. |

| How is black ops 2 enjoyable when theve fucked over all the players ummm a shit load already nd the games been out for a week. HALO4 HAS NOT DISSAPOINTED. How bo kicked it from one is beyond me.halo is giving free game add ons( if thats what you wanna call it). The season pass is more han half the price of black ops. And also 343 isnt dickish enoigh to pull a move like bo has and pull of the pre order offer. All i hear about bo2 has been bad news from day 1. Even in the store halo was sold out while cod had shyt tons of copys. HALO 4 is game of the year ill put all my cash on it. And btw all that plas cod games r liltte spolied brats with attitude issues.HALO 4 deserves number 1 spot. |
