Penrolz's Note:
With the current situtation of U.S. and China was been predicted with it's campaign story, Black Ops 2 is now more than just a console game of 2012. Thanks for the memories that i'm hoping to not see IRL :D

Honestly such a good era of videogames, I wish they still put this much effort into their games now a days

its bo2, what do I need to say about it that most haven't heard, its a classic that most people know, great campaign, multiplayer and zombies, I'd recommend this to anyone

campaign is bug infested horse shit, ive had to replay the same missions multiple times over hoping my game doesnt crash and my save file corrupts, horrid unoptimized piece of trash

i would reccomend this game for sure as it is a all time goat and on fire in plutonium til this day. Thumbs up

as of Nvidia Driver 572.83. Call Of Duty Black Ops II No longer Will Launch, Your Purchase... Worthless.
Activision is under new Ownership, and yet even with the Power of two Conglomerates. one wonders if the companies are really Pro-Consumer or maybe Just Run by a Cultist bent on Stealing your hard earned cash...
Maybe its the Movementarians from The Simpsons...

Got hit with a nasty bug halfway through, that totally messed up my controls and progress. Had to replay the whole mission, which was a total drag.Total buzzkill. Gotta admit, the gameplay’s solid, but for a 13-year-old game, the price is ridiculously steep. Oh, and by the way, screw Activision.

i loved that this game was released on Xbox 360/PS3/Wii U

i only played on 2 consoles for this game i played it on my 360 and wii u to see the differences

was decent at the game this was the game that started my sniping courier

all thanks to sniping clans and i also used the shotguns due to vanoss

i no longer have my 360 sadly to vist the game as of writing this review

wish i did but it's fine thank you Activision

20/10

WHAT??? 80 DOLLARS FOR THIS??? GET A GRIP, THIS IS ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING...WHY ARE THE CALL OF DUTY GAMES STILL SOLD??? LIKE SERIOUSLY? disgusting company...if i could shut ya'll down I WOULD. Took many good games and put your dirty fat arse on them, activision, treyarch, thry all need to go. I've never felt so horribly used by a company. I'll never forgive the people in charge of call of duty...scum. not even cool at this point

I remember playing this game on the Xbox 360, spent countless hours playing multiplayer and the campaign, bought this game on steam a while ago to keep it as a memory. The multiplayer is unsafe to play without third party programs. Despite this, I love this game and I think this is where the CoD franchise reached it's absolute peak. I've been wanting to write a review on this the day I got it but i kinda forgot. With this aside, if you're looking for some nostalgia avoid vanilla multiplayer at all costs and buy this when it's on sale, you'll save a lot because Activision still thinks it's reasonable to sell this game at full retail price after more than 10 years since it launched. (Well would you look at that it's also currently 2025 as of writing this). I'm looking forward to obtain all of the achievements on the campaign on this platform. (Multiplayer is impossible to 100% without mod menus because of those league achievements lol)

Easily one of the best CODs, both campaign and multiplayer wise hands down. However this is killed by the fact that the game is still 60 dollars (mind you this came out in 2012 and the multiplayer is basically unplayable due to hackers without using third party servers) and still has full price DLC.

If you still want to play this I reccomend getting it on sale or via key as sixty dollars for a game now over a decade old is ridiculous.

Played this as a kid and recently got this for my girlfriend best purchase every since shes so bad at Cod it was funny watching her struggle on recruit

esta versao para pc nao tem como jogar dois ou mais jogadores na mesma tela , somente online com outros jogadores , joguei muito na infancia concerteza marcou a minha geracao

You cant hate this game and if you do then you were born after like 2012 and even then surely you played it at 1yrs old like a true COD fan

there just isn't enough players anymore. plus when i find a lobby, there's always a hacker. shame. hope they remaster this someday, but knowing activision, they probably wont. so yeah, this game is not it on steam.

ive only played the campaign, but i love it. the gunplay is amazing, and the graphics are surprisingly good. 9/10 definitely recommend.

I enjoyed Black Ops II for its engaging story and intense action sequences, but the technical issues ruined the experience for me. Audio constantly desynced, screen tearing was nonstop, and the mouse input would glitch out, making horizontal movement impossible at times. I had to switch to a controller just to pass certain sections. While the story was solid, I can't recommend the game due to these frustrating issues.

Good graphics and game play. Action packed.

thias game doesnt work on mt pc anymore and steam wont let me refund it what a waste of money

A Fun And Cool game,i only recemend that you play WAW and Bo1 to understand this game a lot.

I know I'm wrong but this game has the best Zombies mode out of any other COD game.

Very good campaign i liked it a lot please make better games and not ruin your reputation

Everything about this game is amazing, i was creaming my pants the entire time while playing the campaign. If you want a never ending stream of jizz running down your leg, play this game if you haven't already.

BO2 has an absolutely stellar campaign, never thought this would top BO1 but it has for me. Menendez is tied with Makarov for CoD's best antagonist, there's this neat contrast with past and present/future missions, even more fan favorite characters than the last game, it's honestly fantastic. Even your decisions affect the narrative and outcome of the story, which may warrant a second play-through from me.

Zombies though, eh. I've heard negative things about Tranzit and I think I feel the same way, and I'm not interested in buying DLC maps as of right now. I'll stick with BO1 on that front, thank you.

campaign is fun and multiplayer is fun but it's also hard and thats good for challenges

Absolutely one of my favorite games, by the way it works perfectly on the steam deck, just change the screen size and it works out of the box so yeah it's great

good game, the multiplayer is fun but you should definitely use plutonium to play, the campaign is pretty good but not as good as bo1 and the zombies is pretty good too but it is way overpriced so you should not buy without sale

Game is fun and all, as long if you play it on Plutonium. (servers are dying slowly)

Please download Plutonium before playing this, playing the vanilla version of this game without being in Steam Offline mode. + This game's server is hacked, and people can rce or rat your computer.

This game is a fantastic cod game, one of the best campaigns, great Multiplayer and zombies. However I don't know where the actual fuck Activision gets off raising the price to $90 CAD ($70 USD) 12 years after release while simultaneously not providing anything new. Sheer greed. Do not buy this game unless its on sale

There is nothing to do outside of a basic survival do i recommend spending 60 dollars on a watered down version of black ops 3 no if you wanna just get into the feel of bo2 then its exactly the same.

This is the First ever COD i've played and lemme tell you something.

The fact that you have to install a client made by the community to play multiplayer cause Activision doesn't care about the old COD's is actually crazy to think about.

Looking at the prices and the PC requirements, what you get for it is not as good as you could expect in 2025. I was expecting some good content cause a lot of people in my class kept saying that it's really good but in fact looking at the graphics, the security problems and a lot more.

This is not worth 60€, not even 20€ and if you look on SteamDB's website you can see that the lowest recorded price was at 17,49€ in 2014, so don't ever expect Activision or the devs (idk at this point) to make their historical price lower than 17,49€ for old COD games such as BO2 and 3.

Don't waste your money unless you're rich.

behind the rose tinted glasses and fond memories the game legit holds up a decade later. interactive and immersive story, innovative and dynamic story elements, plenty of challenges, achievements, easter eggs and secrets to keep it fresh. truly the last of the golden age of the franchise.

Still fun to play in 2025. It runs great. But there is periodically a launch issue where it simply doesn't launch. You just have to reinstall the game to fix it.

From what I've heard, multiplayer is overrun with hackers, so it's really only good for the campaign. What does the campaign have? Strike force missions. I don't care how good the rest of the game is.

If your looking for a great game this is where its at, its very reliable, multiplayer may be a bit shabby though.

Some I.E.D missions are important, tutorials are lifesavers.

Played this around the time of release and I've gotta say its never let me down.

Very well made, not a huge cash grab like modern CoD's, I would say it is very good for it's time and it gets the well deserved respect for that reason, it has an amazing story line and the multiplayer experience is a bit iffy, i have not played to much but i would not recommend online multiplayer if you are new. But overall, i would recommend for so many reasons, it has created so many memories among all of us players.

Banger Campaign. Don't bother with multiplayer, it's deserted and unsafe. Plutonium isn't as good an option as it would seem.

Fire game that definitely doesn't have any major security vulnerabilities or anything.

One of the best campaigns in the series, just fire all the way through. The story telling in old COD games is a sight to behold.

In this game you get a call to do a duty, but this time there is a black ops for the second time

multiplayer is dead and i got the base game for 19 dollars wich is still too much

i killed a lot of people in this game lol while running a 4060 gpu with a core I9 cpu, also with a 240hz monitor cuz why not

1000/10

It is criminal that this game is still $60, and also the muliplayer is plagued with constant disconnections these days.

Campaign is awesome, multiplayer is fun & the zombies is a real blast from the past.

Pagar por un bug waos

Fair warning **DO NOT** go on multiplayer without plutonium. vanilla bo2 has been taken over by hackers and they can mess up your pc. if you want to play bo2 multi or zombies get plutonium t6. otherwise, you have an exceedingly high chance of getting a virus on your pc. The game is still peak with plutonium tho. hope a remake or smth comes out soon, I miss bo2.

Other than the rampant hackers on vanilla servers, the game still holds up and it is fun as BALLS. I haven't played search and destroy in years, and trying it again today has resulted in nothing but flagrant happiness.

love you, black ops 2. i will never forget
