Call of Duty: Black Ops II [Hardened Edition] - Playstation 3

This is my first time Buying a collectors edition from a game, and I certainly do not regret it. The game is great and the hardened edition extras enhance you gameplay even more. CAMPAIGN: A very good sequel to the Cod Black ops game, I like the fact that the story ultimately depends on your decisions and you will get your ending based on what you did. MULTIPLAYER: Amazing yet again, rank up in Public matches unlock weapons and new equipment or play with your friend with your rules. ZOMBIES: My favorite gamemode, I was totally blown up with this mode! New weapons and new maps make the zombies experience even better than in previous games, I totally loved it. THE BAD: I gave this product 5 stars however there are some minor details that I don't really mind I mean come on, this is an awesome game, but there's no perfect game. 1: The game tends to freeze (specifically when playing zombies mode map mob of the dead ) It has happened to me 3 times since the first time I played (30-08-2013) so yeah... 2: The audio sometimes gets messed up (Again, in zombies mode, And yet again, Mob of the Dead) my friend says "sounds like it's farting!" I bet you guys also had this problem at some point. And also a very small side note for amazon as you may know the cover of the box is made out of cardboard, When I received it, it had a few marks and broke in the corners several days after but it's ok I don't really mind THAT much. Overall, AWESOME game, AWESOME hardened features, ALL AWESOME!!! Fully recommend you to get this hardened edition just for 20 bucks more. PS: For real fans like me, I TOTALLY recommend you on getting the DLC it's really good as well. I am a holder of season pass, 7 personalization packs and the extra slots pack (I know, i'm quite the crazy fan xD). For more info check out the black ops 2 official site and... I guess this is it for this review! Have a good day everyone!EDIT: Ok so it's been 2 months since I first started to play and like I said before, the game tends to freeze and forces me to do the hard PS3 reboot process but that didn't happen so often and I didn't mind that much, however these days the game has keep freezing over and over again, It has frozen 5 times already today and I'm really dissapointed, yestaerday I finished the campaign, I started over, and right at the end before the ending sequence starts the game freezes, right there. My CD has NO SCRATCHES AT ALL and my Ps3 is good as new so there's definetly something wrong with the game itself, I am very mad, It's bothering me a lot and my amazon return guarantee already expired. If I could, I would rate down this product, honestly people, don't buy it. Maybe it's a problem with the hardened edition, maybe because I have tons of DlC, I don't know. This freeze problem hasn't happend with my other games. Seriously Treyarch what the heck. Shame on you, just because this game is originally designed for Xbox dosen't mean you won't care about PS3 users, I think you don't care about the players at all, go to hell Vonderhaar.

I don't play the PS3. I just order the games. My husband and teenage son constantly have this on. Seriously. All.The.TimeI never get to watch the 60" TV because black ops II is constantly on the screen. Question: Does this game not end? Ever? One would think they would have passed it by now. Though it might be the online play that is making it seem never-friggin'-ending to me.Since I don't play it, I can only rate on what I see. Guns, blood, and killing, oh my! OT: what happened to cutsie little video games where you jumped up to get coins and mushrooms? Long gone are those days in my house.My son and my husband use their blue tooth to, from what I hear, boss other people around. Speaking of boss, my teenager said we had to order this edition because the maps that came with this one were boss. Whatever. I saw a zombie. I assume that is one of the maps. (To be fair, he paid for part of the game.)It does make an excellent punishment tool when he (choose which he it might be) isn't listening. Grounded from Black Ops II. That is so not fair mom!All in all, I guess it's a good game, since everyone and their mother are talking about it (me being the mother). I'm giving it 5 stars based on the fact that they won't turn it off willingly. Their enthusiasm not mine.

Edit (3/20/13): The latest patch seems to have fixed the freezing issue, as I have yet to freeze even once since.Edit (2/28/13): Until Activision/Treyarch fix the issue causing frequent console freezing I cannot rate this higher than a 2. This game will freeze your console frequently, requiring a hard reset each time. It was great after the first patch but since the two after that it has been a freezefest.As a fan of the first COD Black OPS I was looking forward to the second installment in the series by Treyarch. I have been thoroughly impressed and it has certainly exceeded my expectations. Everything we loved from the first BO (Emblem editor, an enthralling story line, and ZOMBIES) is back, yet improved, as well as new features including new maps, a large arsenal of new pointstreak rewards, Grief zombies mode, and much more. The maps for this release blow MW3's small, cluttered maps out of the water. Plus, who doesn't love a Nuketown 2025 24/7 mode right out of the gates?

This Item came with the Pre Order Deal and that was my main reason for purchasing. Pre order content was included as offered and the game itself is just as fun as the first Black Ops. This game gives you a little different spin on your Create a Class if your familare from the first game. From What I've played so far there are different weapons but there is also a change to the load out screen. I've noticed they've added a couple of "Wild Card" slots that allow you to costumize even further. With that said they cut you off at 10 items ie. Primary,secondary,perks ect. Each of these counts as one item out of ten. I'm hoping that when you prestige each time, your maximum # of Items will increase as this is how the advantage of prestiging should be. I've never played the campaign for either game so can't help there. Also I have not played the Zombies on this game yet but I've seen they've added some playing modes. In All Good game .
