That's fantastic! I'm so hyped for this game!

So when viewing a game from Theatre Mode, if the person has been playing with the Wiimote, when aiming down sights it doesn't show the actual aiming, it fixes the gun in the centre of the screen so in some cases it looks like they're not shooting at the person they kill when in reality they were. As shown and pointed out in the video below...

Being able to use handsfree kits is great for those not wanting to fork out for a headset. I'll be picking up a headset though for sure! One thing I've noticed in this game, across all versions, is that the footsteps in the game are almost inaudible. Very, very quiet. I don't like this as it makes Dead Silence almost redundant. Apparently using Awareness doesn't improve it much at all too from people's impressions. I imagine Treyarch will patch this, they had the exact same situation with the first Black Ops where people complained and so they tuned the footsteps... which I hope they do as I'll be looking to sound-whore! Haha

Game being played online using the tablet, although it doesn't show the tablet itself in the video. The guy gives his impressions and is very impressed...

I think that given the time it has been taking people to download the update the WiiU a lot of people won't have played much of this as of yet. Or at least not enough to give informed impressions. Plus, the uptake for the game won't be as big as it could've been because people will have been budgeting for the console itself and so they'd not pick up some games immediately and may puck them up at a later date.

Of course with it being a new console developers will need to get used to it's quirks... just like they're still trying to get used to the shitty PS3 quirks.

Prestige...

Ubisoft? Don't you mean Activision..? :p

No, that was local multiplayer. I don't think they ever said if you could go online that way too, although I had always hoped you could but didn't think they'd do it.

Fully customisable. I game with both dual analogue and Wiimote and whereas each has advantages over the other in some cases, I'd definitely say that the Wiimote confers the greater advantage. Best console FPS controls without doubt in my eyes! Also, if that's true that 2 people off the same console can go online, each with their own screen, that is bloody epic!

Another CCP controller gameplay. In this video he talks about how he feels it plays in comparison to the 360 version which he also has...

As I read more of the reviews, even the negative and low scoring ones, I'm still really liking the sound of this. Half of the criticisms that the low scoring reviews make are plus points for me, I love that it's survival and that trying to avoid confrontation is best! Hell, I played through the first couple Splinter Cells not killing people as much as possible because I wanted to be as sneaky and careful as I could be. I played Mirror's Edge and didn't use a gun at all as I loved the challenge of just making it through the areas trying to avoid and outrun the confrontations! This is looking like my type of game! The scores knocked me a little but reading the reviews themselves has reaffirmed my hype for the game!

They used a cricket bat because it's "quintessentially British". I kind of like that, although I do agree that they could've added use of other things that would break but the cricket bat would always remain unbroken.

So I've read a few of the reviews and I think I'll be the kind that likes this game. My usual "go to" site is Eurogamer and they love it. Although I'd also like to see what Gametrailers have to say! I like marmite!

The graphics aren't great but they certainly are atmospheric, having played it I can confidently say that.

IGN have pulled a "Red Steel" with this it seems. Hyping it up, even going to say "forget about Mario, Nintendoland and Call of Duty, ZombiU is shaping up to be the WiiU's must-have title"... only to pan it at review. That preview (below) was pretty misleading really it seems, a stark contrast to the review, so much so it's as if they were playing different games! Saying that, I really do like the idea of this still. I played it at Play Expo and have kept my eye on it and I'm still keeping the ZombiU bundle as my preorder.

Some Wii CCP Controller gameplay and comments (video taken from CoD's Theatre Mode)...

I give gamespot a 4.5/10 they're absolutely dog-shit at writing reviews. Always have been, always will be.

This site has been in my life since the end of the n64-europe.com days... it's not going to go from it any time soon!

@Wii your opinion on these boards lacks credibility. Hating because you just want to hate.

Ok so trailer 2 was awesome! For some reason I went off the boil with GTA after Vice City and couldn't really get into SA and IV but this has me a little hyped!

What a goal! Ibra, I take my hat off to you!!!

Review (albeit the 360 version) is up at IGN... http://m.ign.com/articles/2012/11/13/call-of-duty-black-ops-2-review For those wondering about prestige... @Zechs Merquise I know what you mean that it won't quite be as useful as normal (the Orbital VSAT, as it is in this) but it's not the highlighting of Ghost users I used it for but for the fact it shows you the direction the enemy is travelling/facing. This is it's major quality, I think it's great!
